Staples is easy price match.
I was able to price match online and in store and both works perfectly fine.

It appears that Rona has increased the price to 44.99.

45$ every store near me. Looks like an Ontario deal

Just picked up the last one at Carleton Place... well, the last "Twilight" colour which is $44.98.
The sticker on the shelf was for the White version, at $59.99, so when I asked to price match online the cashier took their time to double-check and see what the $20 difference was between both models... which was colour.
They sent someone to the back to search for the two "white" versions they had in stock, and discovered that they were supposed to have 0 of the Twilight in store (hence no tag for it on the shelves). Took 10 mins, and they had no white left, but they priced it down to $24.98 with the manager reason of "White not currently in stock".
Then went to Staples in CP, and grabbed the last two White ones there (replacing my 1st gen Echo Dots). Took around 5 mins for the manager to work through the model number issues (talked about how careful they have to be, especially with laptops and stores like BB), before marking them down from $44 to $24.98.
Thanks OP!

I can confirm that this appears to be the case.sneakerfan wrote: ↑ 45$ every store near me. Looks like an Ontario deal
Montreal area stores show 44.99. Gatineau shows the same price whereas across the river at the Nepean and Carleton stores it's 24.98. However, both ON locations indicate they are out of stock.
Quick question: Did anyone in Quebec try ordering online and have the Ontario price honoured?
--- EDIT
My question appears to be moot because I just tried and it indicates online stock is too low for the order to be processed.

Take it for what it's worth, but I was told in a store today that no stores had received any stock.

I tried to Direct Message Staples. They won't price match online because the Rona closest to my home has this item marked as Out of Stock.

Seems that this has been removed from Rona's website.

I'm a bit disappointed by the brightness of the clock's LED. Even on the dimmest setting 1%, I still find it really bright at night time.

Yes but that would defeat the purpose of buying this model
