Target Now Price Matching Amazon, Walmart.com, BestBuy.com & Toysrus.com Year-Round

Target today made a huge move to counteract the practice of “showrooming,” the term that refers to how consumers are using retail brick-and-mortar stores to go hands-on with items, which they then order online for less – often from competitors like Walmart and Amazon. The company announced that it is now extending its holiday price matching policy year-round, in order to match those prices offered by online retailers like Amazon and Walmart.com, as well as BestBuy.com and Toysrus.com (including Babiesrus.com).
