i have always brought my cartridges at tandy i have to get 2 seperate ones for a HP so i buy the pack it normally cost me around $70.00 for them ..
today me and hubby went shopping at big w and i found my ink cartridges in ther for 51.00 what a saving near 20.00..
so i know where i will be buying them from now on, its just crap that tandy has to charge an extra 20.00 for what..
i want to know what you think, tandy is a great store for electrical stuff but to charge that amount when big w is a few stores up how silly can they be.. i was stupid because i never looked around and today i found them out of the blue..
has this happened to any of you..
hugsssssssssss

Of course, dear shell. We all get taken every now and then!
You don't think sometimes that another store might have
something that you are used to buying somewhere else a bit
cheaper! Then when you do find it cheaper you really are pissed!
Well now you know and you won't be fooled again!

I discovered the anomalies in the prices of printer cartridges ages ago. I've even had some filled and I've bought substitute brands to save money. Ink cartridges really are way too expensive I reckon.I get mine now from a place on-line, I forget the name for the moment. It's amazing how cheaply you can buy even original cartridges from some discount places.

I've been getting sinus headaches lately and they can be dreadful. I wish it would rain...we haven't had any decent rain since January and we need it so badly, just to clear the air so to speak. We are having roads sealed out here and the dust is terrible.
So sorry to hear your headaches are so bad. Hope it clears for you soon....i'm still way behind with everything.

Ya! I agree with you actually we should compare within a few shop before getting anything because I also find that the price of the same thing can be great different. Ever bought a gameboy for my kids years ago without checking with other shop and paid about $50 more for the same thing.

Tandy is overpriced on everything. In America we have a chain call Walgreens. They sell HP cartridges for $10.00 each. I use a laser printer at home and have them refilled. I get about 8500 pages on a $75 refill.
