I wonder if it would actually work if you took a screenshot and brought it into futureshop tonight. Technically wouldn't they have to honor the price

No, I tried with Wal-Mart and they told me I need a flyer with the posted ad in it. I imagine Futureshop is the same, although somehow MissKat was able to get the Batman $7.67 deal, but she/he hasn't divulged in how she did it.

Also, on their website it says "if our website screws the price-up, we won't pricematch". Not in those words, but that is the idea.

I would try going into the store and telling them to bring it up on their computer. Its still up, so thats what will come up for them and it MIGHT work. 230$ worth the check

they had the same screwup for the PS3 slim earlier today. i actually put through an in-store pickup for it and it was confirmed at the $99 price, but FutureShop still didn't honor it when i tried to go in and grab it with the printed out confirmation email
