Was the coupon printed on a thicker than your usual printer paper? If I can recall, There is a $5 coupon like that if you spend $50 or more, but it was printed on a plastic like paper. If it's printed on regular paper, cashiers might not accept it.
They're not going to bother calling Fry's, nor should you bother them to do so.
You can't price match the game if it will remain "Low Price" on the listing. Hopefully Fry's updates it by Tuesday.
As long as you have the advertisement with the listed price, they will PM it. I live in San Bruno, CA and the nearest Fry's is way to damn far away (San Jose). Fortunately, I get the ad prices from behind the local newspaper and the Target where I work at happily price matches that.
By law, California requires retailers to cash out gift cards if they're under $10. Perhaps you don't see it because you live in a different state? Regardless, it's a win-win for consumers shopping at Target in CA.
As for the pre-order cards, I haven't purchased one yet, so I'm not totally sure...
Fry's usually has the games under MSRP, I know they had MW2 for $49.99 when it was first released.
I unfortunately don't have a Kmart or Walmart near me, so Fry's and Bestbuy are my only option. Bestbuy doesn't really offer low prices for new released games, but they do price match nicely...
Look at option K8, which says "extras", on the default screen where it displays your speed score (giant letter).
Once you get in there, the only option available is K4 which is to cash out a giftcard.
If the gift card is over $10, then it's not going to let you. If it's under $10, then it's...
Great deal for me:
$5 giftcard for preordering FF13
$10 giftcard for FF13
10% employee discount
and hopefully.........
PRICE MATCH WITH FRY'S!
Also, you can cash out the gift cards if they're under $10. Cashiers must do this if you request it.
Amazon has the game for $59.99 and a $10 gift...
