Can some1 please stickies these?

^ pointless... Even if that's their policy, they won't PM every online store. I know that Amazon won't work in most cases because of a lack of physical store in Canada. Some won't bother PM because it's not in your region. Having the convenience of the store over a store that is thousand of miles away is a factor for them. This quote is probably the most important thing to notice "The terms and conditions of “Get it for less, guaranteed™” are subject to change without notice." That gives them a bit of freedom to modify the policy (sometimes reasonably and sometimes total BS).

Online retailers are a hit or miss around Montreal. A lot of the sales rep I bump into sticks to store around the region. However they should allow you to PM if you print the ad showing stock online, the shipping fee that is closest to next day delivery (if you're lucky, they'll ignore shipping or take the cheapest option) and the price of the item. You can always argue

All I can suggest is try it anyway at the store. It'll give you an experience and if you're successful, you'll know that you can do it at that store in the future.

Well does it?

Does Futureshop or Bestbuy Price Match NCIX or any other e-tailer?

I always pricematch at Futurecrap with online retailers. If it is a store without an actual retail location then they will look at the shipping costs and add that to the purchase price. I've price matched with NCIX, Canada Computers, Best Direct, Direct Canada, amongst many others.
Different Futurecrap location might have different attitudes on this so call first.
