Staples new flyer is out today, on the second page they have advertised a 19" Samsung LCD monitor for $209.95. but when you click on the link for online sales, it brings up the 17" Lcd monitor plus it says its a bundle rebate. I am sure its a Stooples screw up but if you catch it early instore, you`ll probably get a Samsung 19" lcd monitor for the $209.95 price.
I did not include a link because its postal code sensitive and the flyer may be for certain regions/provinces?....please go to www.staples.ca

the flyer on the website is not very clear. does the flyer contains model no. or product no.? if it specifies either of those, then you might have no luck. otherwise you can try. i guess maybe you can get a 931B.

...which, if you look up on the website is a 17"
So I think you'll be SOL as the right product SKU is on the flyer.

Wouldn't it be great if we could get the $30 MIR bundle to work somehow :lol: :lol: :lol:

I guess this is staples way of getting revenge for all those bestbuy laptops being pricematched at staples.

It does say 19" monitor on the flyer, but it says "Save $20". Still, it's worth a shot to ask for the 19" for that price. You've got nothing to lose ('cept maybe some time). ;)

I'd rather wait for the Dell deals of days(or days of deals).

EDIT: nm i guess you were ref'ing to the flyer advertising the 19" for $210....

i finally read the fine print on the flyer and it clear says the model no. AND product no. so there is no way staples will give you a 19''.

it is possible just not with this flyer or so called pricing error, you can probably get one pm'ing Canada Computers: http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=ShowProduct&cmd=pd&pid=010527&cid=MT.983
then use a $30 coupon would bring it to around $210
