Price match it at Futureshop or Best Buy.

Best buy is out.

Futureshop says they are out of stock as well and I don't think you can price match an out of stock product. The only one left seems to be Source.ca. Maybe Costco's Wireless booth but haven't checked with them on pricing.

Try to price match at Walmart or Zellers.

Call local staples I found stock that way.
Also Futureshop and Bestbuy have open box deals in store based on new pricing, many look as new.

Bestbuy was giving away free Journal Cases with open box purchases.

Yep, got my 32GB at Staples 2 days ago at $149. Will be dropping by today for my $31 refund.:D

Or buy it somewhere else & price match it.

Just finished setting up my new 32g very happy. Staples only had 2 left :) now have one very happy 12yr old with my 16g

Walmart in hamilton has 10 32gb in stock on centennial pkwy

I was just in at the best buy yesterday before the 32 gb sale at staples today and they had plenty stockk. My friend went in today and the guy said they were out of stock. I am wondering if they just took them off the showroom display

Wow, fire sale! They clearly want Playbooks OFF the shelves :eek:

Does your child have at least an 'B+' average? No? Then the kid should be focusing on their academics not playing with toys. :rolleyes:

They do, if they stay on the shelves any longer the battery might have no charge when someone finally buys it. It's literally now or never (unless they open it up and start charging it for everyone, which they won't do).

That's not necessarily how it works. Education is a lot more complex, depending on how it's manifesting, a lower grade at a young age isn't a concern, and forcing them to study more and taking away recreation is actually detrimental to their development.

Thats a good deal if you are in Canada but what about the UK? the best deal I have seen is this Blackberry Playbook P100-16WF Tablet New �87 Delivered @ Debenhams | smartpound �87 delivered 16GB 64GB is coming in at �138.80 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004UL34GW/ so in my view the 16GB ones looks the best deal?
