does staples still pricematch?

Yes, but it's pretty much a joke. The staples in Dubuque, Iowa had a Nazi manager.
To price match, it had to meet the following criteria -
1. store had to be in the same town
2. had to be a competing office supply store
3. item had to be in stock and not on clearance
4. they no longer do the 110% pricematch guarantee that they used to do
Here's the kicker though - there weren't any other competing office stores!!!!
I found a nice Vtech cordless phone at the Sears in town, I had to go to staples anyway so I figured I go over there. They had the same exact phone for about $20 more than Sears. I asked a rep if they would price match. He pulled a manager over and I explained to him about the price of the phone over at Sears. He said "sorry, has to be a competing office supply store". I told him thanks, left what I had in my hands on the phone display and drove over to Sears to buy the phone.
They really, really, don't want much business.
