Thanks OP, I'll take a shot at PMing this at Best Buy if it's still up next time I go. Assuming I'll even win the inevitable argument to get them to match this, it has to be worth $10.....right?

If $4.26 is worth half an hour to an hour of torture to you, then you can match it at Worst Buy.
Yea right. It takes 3 employees and 2 managers to argue with me about price matching and it always results in me having to call customer service while I'm standing there in the store so that they can tell the store to price match. Even if I show them their own price matching terms they act as if it's foreign to them.

looks like madden for X1 is listed at $18 now w/ free shipping and $15 off $100 coupon here expires 8/23
TiV @ best buy $25: 6*$18 + tax (dependent on location) = $93 OOP
6*$25 TiV = $150 Best Buy GC
Madden is $20 for PS4 but w/ no free shipping and Ghosts for X1 is $20 but not that good of a MM.
Edit: ahh, max is 3 for X1, so have to add Madden for PS4 & Ghosts for X1 @ $20 to reach $100 for coupon, and they still charge for shipping making it $118. fuckin tigerdirect, not worth it for me, but might be for some.

correct, for in-store. however, people have reportedly been able to trade-in 10 copies online and one member stated this is what the manager at his local BB told him. obviously, I would assume the individual would already know this or at least research before investing that amount for a trade-in, so proceed at your risk. this has been discussed at length here and im a newer member than you are

It takes 4 regulars and three managers for me. Lol
It's better to do it by phone. One guy was matching it for me after trying to look for any typo or semi-questionable detail on the page for 30 minutes and he finally pulled one from his ass and he said that the item was in a third party warehouse so he wouldn't do it. The one after that straight up told me that they don't price match unless there is a physical store with stock and she did it after I told her the retailers that were on the list.

I decided to stop by after work and give it a try and they actually price matched it for me. The customer service desk (with no line) told me to go to the register to check out and do it, so I had to wait behind 8 people and then the cashier told me I had to go to customer service lol. She ended up calling another employee over who told me I had to show them the ad on my phone as opposed to them just looking it up on their own computer, so I showed them, and then they didn't believe me because it was like $50 off so they brought over a manager who ended up calling the store to find out if it was in stock. I asked what that mattered since I could just order it online and the manager said $50 off makes no sense and they would not price match it without speaking to a manager at Tigerdirect to verifiy that the price on the website was correct.
just about 30 minutes later, I paid for the game and got out.

Sounds just like a typical Worst Buy story.

Yeah I have gotten to the point where I'll buy something but hate to use a coupon or PM of any kind, they act like it's some crazy new thing to work with. And don't get me started on game trades. Game trading in there takes at minimum 30 minutes.

I was denied price matching Call of Duty Ghosts @ Best Buy because the instant savings is considered an internal coupon offer on the tiger direct website.
They said I got flagged after placing my initial Battlefield 4 order lol
(I'm reposting this here as a heads up...hopefully you guys have better luck if you're price matching Best Buy)

I price matched this when it was in-stock before. Initially the manager on duty didn't want to price match but he pulled up the Best Buy policy. After he noticed Tiger Direct was on the approved list, he matched it and walked away quietly. I think if I made a big deal of it, he would have found a reason not to do it.
