That's harlious...definitely do what Zip had suggested, I would love to hear about the result here. :lol:

[Immortal]

Let's head to staples!

[Puff]

Make it a sticky and a front page Deals banner hahahah :lol:

Back in the day, that was how raves got started up...
but like I've said before, "PEOPLE GOT TOO MUCH TIME ON THEIR HANDS!" :roll:

[Casper]

That's great!
Bet the passersby were talking about it for weeks.

[chillin]

Why, oh WHY did you post this on RFD??  

Its only a matter of time until we hold 'meets' at each Staples location, frantically trying to pm and buy as much as we can in 4 minutes or less.

4 minutes or less? It'll take longer than that for the anti-PM manager to recite from their little script: "Sorry, <fill in name of major local retailer here> is not on our headquarter-approved list of competitors who we are willing to price-match against."

Now multiple that by 300.

Hmm... now that I think about it that way... it might actually be fun...

Especially if we all price-match something different...

The perfect venue: The Sony Store, Eaton Centre.

[Shaf]

one person try the PM, then all the other people say "me too" when the PM works

[Adrian Lankosz]

I say a staples mob would work nice.
Everyone asking for a pricematch for an item that can be pricesmatched to an futureshop item or other stores on the list.

A valid price match at the time of course.

Maybe some nice revenge on a non pricematching manager.

[weedb0y]

do people really dont have lives? I have hard time finding time to relax and hang out with friends.. ppl got so much time to just meet at the stores for the sole purpose of nothing.. lol

crazy world we live in.. 8)

[Adrian Lankosz]

Actually, nope don't have a life at the moment.
Looking for a job, well student job until school.
Part time after that.

I'll be more than happy to assist, or find people I know from other stores to assist with this! Come on! Let's do it up!

[that_staples_guy]

Holy crap, sorry, didn't realize this was a two year old thread. SORRY!

[CSR]

LOL none of the links work too.


What's even funnier is if we PM Walmart for 1cent discount.. ie. xx.99 - xx.87 prices...

[Cough]

I'm thinking :did Rehan the famous mod repost something. But now I see that its that crazy staple guy who has resurrected a thread from 2003. Maybe he's really PB in disguise????

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

aaawww come on now, how you gonna go and be like that? lol I apoligized, I didn't see the date of the thread, I just followed a link and arrived here and posted thinking it was new.

How am I PB lol, I believe the guy was white, if you take a look at the pic thread, page #2 begs to differ.

Hey, by the bye how did those brownies come out Cough? :lol:

[Sanhedralite]

This is silly.

The only reason I could see a reason to do this is to maybe get 200 people to meet up by a poor or sick person and get everyone to give them a dollar.
