They're both really good deals.

Clearly, a bait and switch trick.

 

[jcuadrado]

still a good deal.

damn...I wish I had a Fry's here in SFLA....you guys are lucky.

 

[kalster]

got in on the 69 deal in sacramento, awsome deal, got the same setup for 149 a year back

No bait and switch. Bought the combo at the San Jose Fry's for $69.98 on Saturday 6/10. According to Sunday's paper, it went back up to $99.98.

Did they actually honor that price? I'm sure its a price mistake as the Saturday ad says prices good Sat thru Tuesday, but the price went back up on Sunday's ad.

Can someone please post a scan of the $69.98 price along with the date (lower half of ad)? All the people who bought with earlier for $99.98 will thank you.

The ad can be found here:

Friday's ad said $99.98, Saturday = $69.98, Sunday = $99.98. I called Fry's and gave them the PLU number at the bottom of the ad to verify the price before I picked it up. I'm not sure how much it is today, but you can call.

My Citi BVG only matches advertised prices. I sent an online printout of the ad and they rejected it. If anyone can scan the ad, I'd be grateful.

 

[saymyname]

I can never see the ad with the mercury news. Is there a link somewhere in that Link that I have to push or am I missing something?

 

[bluedc503]

Go here: http://newspaperads.mercurynews.com/ROP/Categories.aspx

Under Shopping, click on Computers & Electronics, then click on Fry's. It'll the ads for the last 3 days or so.

Trigger: Sorry I don't have a copy to scan. I view the ads online.

 

[bluedc503]

Trigger: Did you call up Fry's to check the price for today? Maybe Sunday's ad is a typo. If so, go back and price match.

 

[Powermoloch]

wow....Very tempting. Although I just bought a new comp 1 month ago

I think the price was only for the SF Bay area. I live in Dallas so there's no way for me to get the ad.

Same price here in the H... Err Houston for those that don't know.
