READ CAREFULLY
0) I have the BestBuy/FutureShop flyers early so I know what's coming on sale
1) Head to Staples NOW and purchase the following item FOR THE REGULAR RETAIL PRICE SHOWN.
2) Return to Staples FRIDAY, with BestBuy/FutureShop ad in hand to claim pricematch.
3) Do not try to PM this before the sale takes effect on FRIDAY! Follow the above directions!

Anyone pointing out that these pricematches are not available because the sale doesn't start 'till Friday will show themselves to be true RFD newbies worthy of ridicule.

Don't forget to use coupons if you have 'em!

[lithiumli]

i only rember this camera because i was checking it out

[GreenWeenie]

If it had been my thread initially, I would just edit it to show that the deal will continue with Futureshop starting Friday. But ... since it wasn't, I post it so that it will show up as valid when the other one with BestBuy expires.

Damned if I do ... damned if I don't.

How does this compare to the Fuji E510?

I just bought the E510 for under $250 include tax and (-$30 coupon).

LOL...

man, if FS + BB keeps on having sales on same item on alternating wks, stooples will be OOB ( = out of business) in no time!

I think staples will need to change the policy to survive, because there are always us to abuse the PM policy.

well....u can't really say that we're "abusing" it....

to put it another way, we're simply just using it to our advantage

[FusionSenses]

haha, right.

there are so many of us just pm Staples for the hell of it, it's not because we need to buy the product.

Digital Camera prices have fallen so sharply recently; I thought I got a great deal when I purchased the Sony DSC-P73 (the older model) for $270!
