Hmmmmm, if i pricematch, i lose the rebate, right?

Bought a wireless router last week at OD, $49 after $20mir. This week, office max has it for $39 after $20 mir. So $10 less OTD. If i price match it though, dosent that invalidate my rebate (which i havent sent in yet) since the system will effectively see the purchase as today and their rebate ended last week?

Generally NO, but depends on the store (Bestbuy supposedly invalidates the rebates, but I can personally attest that at Staples, Officemax it does not)

Plus you can always buy it at full price.. then go back to price match it with the receipt
