same products cost a lot less at other retailers

I've read a lot of reviews of Williams-Sonoma suggesting that the reason that their goods are overpriced is because they have higher quality stuff. This was not the case with my recent Williams-Sonoma purchase; the exact same model of KitchenAid mixer was about 15-20% more expensive than I could've gotten it elsewhere (unfortunately, I had a gift card which I needed to use). What's more, KitchenAid actually offered a rebate for this mixer of $30. However, it was not valid at Williams-Sonoma, who instead offered a $30 Williams-Sonoma gift card. So, effectively, the product was $30 more expensive that it needed to be to subsidize the cost of a gift card I didn't even want (and so the vicious cycle continues...)! In summary, I would avoid this retailer; you can find much better prices elsewhere.
