Amazon.ca - Xbox360 4GB - $133.56 minus 10% @ Futureshop.
The 4GB Xbox is currently on sale at Amazon.ca for $133.56.
If you take that info to Futureshop, or call Futureshop they will honor their "price beat promise" reducing the price by 10% which they will hold for 30 days if you call (In case you wish to utilize this deal but cannot afford to do so at the moment)
Not sure how long the price drop will last on Amazon but it's currently $199 everywhere else, including Futureshop.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that from Amazon, you only get the console, controller and cables. From Futureshop you also get a one month sub to Xbox Live Gold and 450 Microsoft points.

The problem is that Amazon is a marketplace. This'll be a huge YMMV

Bestbuy and Futureshop do pricematch Amazon.ca, They ONLY will price match amazon itself though, not individual sellers.(This is sold by amazon.ca, and includes free super saving shipping so its okay)
On a Side note, Ive noticed this price has dropped over the last few days. I originally saw it at 145, then 139 now its 133, curious if it will drop more. but after price beat 127 is decent. There's been better deals out there but if you want one now, this is the way to get it.

Honestly, it's a great price for an entertainment system. I use my xbox more than any other electronic in my house

The 360 had a great run of almost 7 years. I think it's near the end of its long life and will be cleared out at $99 soon. Still worth buying but $130 is lukewarm. Guess it's the best deal for right now.

I agree. I still see good use from a Xbox 360 as soon as Microsoft release IE for it. I won't buy one until it's $99.99. I have a feeling we'll see such prices during Christmas.

10% of the difference, not 10% of the total, so given that the difference is $66, they will reduce it by $6.6, not $13.35.

Is this true??
You'll need to get the 250gb hard drive thing if you don't already have one to pop in to play certain games. It'll say on the back "needs 20gb free memory to play" if you don't it'll just run really bad/slow/laggy depends on the game.

No. It might say 20MB are required to save games. 4GB = 4000 MB, Plenty of room. The only things you miss out on is the ability to "install" games, basically copy the entire game disc to the harddrive for slightly faster loading time (not much faster).

No. certain features of games will not work, Halo Reach Co-Op for example is one of them, I can't tell you anymore as I do not feel like searching and the only console game I play is Halo, but not 250gb the 20gb will suffice.

lol…what a world we are living in, a high def game system is ~$130, and people are complaining…even with the rising price levels. Im a PS3 guy, but love to see these game systems dropping in price, great price for a cheap media centre. Really, how much more can they drop this, they cant be making too much on it.

In case you guys have never dealt with the futureshop price match policy, they do not price match any items on sale or items that are advised of having "limited quantities"
