Are there any computer/video game stores that do RETROACTIVE price matching?

Say you were to buy something (like a piece of hardware/ game console) from a store and the price went down the following week. Are there any stores in which you could take the product back in with your receipt and get a refund of the difference?

Thanks

Circuit City used to advertise that... And for Best Buy, I think it's one of their competitors.

/me runs and hides under a mushroom.

I know Sears does that, they don't sell computers though, but I think they have consoles.

Excellent. Thanks for all the info. I suspected as much but couldn't find much on their sites.

I "secured my merchandise" a few days early of this deal at Office Max.

When I went back for the price adjustment on the $10 Instant Rebate, I didn't even have to bring the HD back in, just my receipt. The customer service woman was very nice, no problems at all.
