It's in a different e-mail. Does anyone know will this code expire? I might want to use it when ACIII hits $20.

Did you walk into your local store or do it over the phone? I would love to PM this but they never let me PM websites, let alone daily deals.

I'm on the phone with Best Buy price matching Halo 4 to Target's $39.99 price. Dude informed me I can only price match retail stores only. I told him I thought they expanded that policy to websites too, but he informed me they can only price match websites at the time of the purchase.

Being that this is a one day only deal from Amazon, should I just call Best Buy again and get another representative? It's a bestbuy.com order so I don't know if driving to a retail store would accomplish anything besides wasting gas.

Sweet. Had $10 Amazon credit left and the $10 voucher from the Vita bundle.

$13 total, nice.

The representative is right, the official policy is that they only PM websites at time of purchase. Since its a bb.com order, store wont be able to help you, your only option is to call back. If that doesn't work, wait till next week when Kmart has ACIII for $39.99, in the physical ad.

.com orders have to be PM'd over the phone. You should PM the Target price at a minimum. Technically they can deny you on the DLC bundle gift offer clause though. The fine print for Amazon PM's do not cover game software so technically they should deny that too but sounds like the current day purchase PM was incorrectly interpreted to me.

I walked in. It's on their website that they match Amazon.

"For the above promotions, the Designated Major Online Retailers are: Amazon.com, Apple.com, Bhphotovideo.com, Buy.com, CircuitCity.com, CompUSA.com, Crutchfield.com, Dell.com, hhgregg.com, HP.com, HomeDepot.com, Lowes.com, Newegg.com, OfficeDepot.com, OfficeMax.com, Sears.com, Staples.com, Target.com, TigerDirect.com, and Walmart.com."

Also, on AC3's page on Amazon, the price says nothing about being a daily deal. I just showed them the game on the Amazon app.

You didn't read the whole policy, technically it only applies to appliances and electronics hardware, not software. See my post above. Any game PMs against website retailers (both during and/or after purchase) should be YMMV, but people have much better luck in the stores (myself included) than over the phone.

Denied by a female representative now. Guess I'll be waiting till next week to price match Kmart. Thanks for the information guys, the worst thing Best Buy could tell me was "no."

I have been having that exact problem for online orders, reps saying online purchases can only be price matched pre-purchase for websites. It's best to just buy in-store from now on if you want to price match websites.

just go instore and return/rebuy. i have to do this every bestbuy.com pickup, but i still get my 1000 points for preorders.
ywah i tried to pm newegg farcry 3 yesterday for 50, but nogo, guess pm kmart ad next week also.

If one of these credits was an MP3 credit, I probably would buy the game.

I just got done talking to a Bb rep, the price matching actually went fairly quickly... All she had to do was verify the price on Amazon and then she manually adjusted the price difference. Yay for money back on my card!! Thanks guys!
