Unfortunatly you will get caught and possibly terminated. If you go into your employee toolkit and then under employee self serivce you will see they track everyone of your purchases. So unless you have 10 cars they will start asking questions as to why you needed so many decks, speakers or possibly why you needed multiple radar detectors.

Every morning the opening manager along with the opening admin senior/supervisor goes through the employee purchase list. Part of their opening duties.

Giving discounts out to friends isn't something best buy puts up with and there is no 2nd chance. If they find out...your fired.

Just some advice.

You are aloud to use your discount for your immediate family though. . .and that is a good loophole around the getting fired for buying that ****. You just say you have rich parents that are having a midlife crisis and have like 10 cars and want that stuff for all of them!!!!

Yes, your mother father and siblings under 18. Unfortunatly doesn't leave alot of room for that kind of lying.

I am just giving advice is all. He can do what he wants with his discount and his job. It's reasons like this though the employee discount has got worse as well.

lol, I also work at best buy and have for 4 years. I don't need his hookup and he isn't hooking me up with anything.

Again, just advice cause best buy corp does not tolerate it and it is instant termination.

I work there as well. Your friend can lose his job at any moment, and IMO is not very smart by sticking his neck out so far for you. Good luck though!

I have applied at a couple of Best Buy locations and how you can beat me out for a job is completely mind blowing.
