Well, according to the sagas told on Reddit, the golden age of price matching at Total Wine has sadly come to an end. It seems the answer is a resounding "not anymore."
Based on the digital whispers from the r/Scotch community, there was once a glorious time when you could stride into a Total Wine, competitor's ad in hand, and get them to match prices from local rivals, including the mighty Costco. Redditors fondly recall these days, but they are quick to point out that this generous is now a relic of the past.
So, while you can't haggle over the price of that fancy Bordeaux, the Reddit hivemind does offer some wisdom on their pricing in general. The consensus is that Total Wine's prices are a bit of a treasure hunt. You might find great deals on their "Winery Direct" or "Spirits Direct" selections, but you could end up paying a bit more for other, more common brands. In short, your wallet's fate at Total Wine depends more on what you're buying than on a price match guarantee.
