I went to Staples the other day and picked up an Intellimouse Explorer 3.0 optical mouse for $28.50. The original price was 49.95 but I price matched with who was offering the mouse for $28.99Link and with Staples 110% pricematch guarentee it came out to 28.50 with tax. Just thought I would share my good deal and hopefully help somebody out with getting a good deal. I did search for other threads regarding this deal but I didn't find anything.

Will Staples price match with googlegear.com? I've never heard of it before. Maybe you are lucky, the manager in my local store is really sucks, he even refused to price match with OfficeMax for the Logitech Elite Duo.

They do pricematch to online stores, although they usually include shipping charges. But seeing as googlegear.com is free, this should be a go.

The one from googlegear is OEM as well. This is definately you YMMV deal. In most cases they will not pricematch a retail item for an OEM.

Why not just order from GoogleGear if shipping is free? I don't think there is tax for anyone outside of California and for 49 cents more, it comes to your house...

Yup. Just ordered one last week. Free 2 day shipping. As WHipLAsh13 mentioned...it should be YMMV because the one from Googlegear is OEM and the one from Staples is retail.

I agree with ojai00, why deal with a PM and having to go ut and get it??

I like delivered to the door free much better.

shipping is $5, not bad

It's not retail so they probably won't do it.




That looks pretty good to me!
