If you have an iPhone there is an excellent app available called Redlaser. If you have another smart phone there is no doubt a similar app you can download.
Essentially, what this app does it allows you to scan a bar code on a product using the camera on your phone. Once you have done this the app will then tell you where else the product is sold and at what price. So all you have to do is spend a couple of seconds using this app, and before you go to the checkout you tell an associate that you've found the products cheaper at another store, and the price match guarantee kicks in and you can get excellent discount on all your purchases.
If you don't have a smart phone, the alternative is you can walk over to the laptops and Google the product you like, and then get the staff to match the price that way. You can get some pretty stout savings, especially since if you are persuasive you can even get Best Buy to price match with Amazon.com or other online retailers.
Today was the first time I used the Redlaser app, and it worked perfectly, saving me $20 on just two small items. Sadly one of those items was the horrific new Call of Duty game, which I think is a sick joke. Ah well, at least I didn't pay full price.
