PM mixed with coupons?

[danhenry]

Title pretty much says it all :D. If I PM a product at Staples, to say Dell. Can I also use the coupons to lower the cost even further? I'm kinda new at all this, so forgive my ignorance. :)

yes, assuming your post-pm price still satisfies the conditions of the coupon.
e.g. to use a $30 off $150 coupon, the price of the product after the pricematch has to exceed $150. Otherwise, your coupon will be canceled.

It definitely would exceed the 150 needed to qualify for the coupon. But it wouldn't be the same price as the Dell deal after the coupons are applied. What happens then?

I should hope not... final price should be cheaper (thus the reason the coupons exist).

e.g.: find something at Dell selling for $170. Staples has it for $250. Buy it from Staples, pricematched at $162. Take off a further $30 with the coupon, for a final price of $132, making it much better than the Dell deal.

So for example... (I'm going to scratch the Staples, and go with Future Shop).

Dell has this:

And Future Shop has this:

Same price! But the Dell one offers more (practically), would that be a good match? Or do they have to be EXACTLY the same? (And that would make me save about 50 dollars on the system right?)

Thanks for helpin so far :).
