Well I was thinking of picking up some game for the 360 and my friend recommended viva pinata. So i see it for 19.99 on the bestbuy website and the nearest store is kind of far. So I decide to check on the futureshop website and it is for 34.99. Will futureshop price match the game for me?

Yes, you should be able to PM "110%" against BB prices @ FS but not the other way around (100% only).

If BB gives you issues you just tell em to call Head office and they have to pm 110%

Will Future Shop Price Match? No.
With Future Shop's Lowest Price Guarantee, they should beat BB's price of $19.99 by a further 10% of the difference between $34.99 and 19.99.
So, you should get it for about $18.50 (35-20 = 15 x .10 = 1.5)
+ taxes.
The real question is if FS will try and sneak 'just' a 100% price match - watch out. Since you seemed concerned with the distance of travel as many might be with high gas prices/long bus wait times, then you should look at the receipt right away!
These days, it wouldn't be worth it to return to FS for the extra 10% once you get home since it'll probably cost you that just to drive there with these crazy gas prices!!!!

don't you mean technically YES?
but 'practically' maybe not?
i've been refused 110% with bb before.
but email head office. get a letter saying they will. b/c they ARE competitors and they SHOULD 110% price match...print that out. and show it to em'. hard for them to refuse that.
and if its local biz hours 9-5. call head office. and ask them. they'll clear it up.
