Best Buy May Not Be

This one is rich!

Apparently, Best Buy is under investigation by Connecticut's attorney general for maintaining a "lookalike" internal Web site that employees could use to deny in-store shoppers the prices posted online at BestBuy.com.

According to a company spokesman quoted by AP, it's all just a misunderstanding by the employees. But she added that it may be time to redesign the internal Web site so it doesn't resemble BestBuy.com.

You think?

Seriously, if you're crazy enough to actually buy anything in a brick-and-mortar store these days, be sure to bring along a smart phone and check the Web to make sure you're not being taken advantage of.
