How do Staples coupons and rebates contribute to the Staples price?
We'll deduct any available Staples coupons and instant rebates (but not mail-in rebates) from the Staples price to arrive at a net price. For example, if you buy an item from us for $100 and we offer a $20 instant rebate, the net price is $80. If another company's price is $80 or more, we will not match the price. Another example: if you buy an item from us for $159 and you have a $30 coupon, the net price is $129. If another company's price is $125, your price match would be $4.40 (110% of the difference).

Will Staples match another company’s price when combined with an instant rebate, mail–in rebate, gift check, or gift card, or free or discounted item?
We’ll match another company’s final price after deducting an instant rebate. If another company offers a product that comes with a mail–in rebate, gift check, gift card, or an equivalent, we will only match the price you pay at the point of purchase and will not take the mail–in rebate, gift check, gift card or equivalent into account. If another company offers a product that comes with a free or discounted item and Staples does not carry the free or discounted item, we will only match the price you pay at the point of purchase and will not take the free or discounted item into account.

What is Staples' price–match policy? How does Staples 110% price–match guarantee work?
If you find a lower price, anywhere else on a new identical item, just show us the lower price when you buy the item at Staples or within 14 days of your Staples purchase — and we'll give you 110% of the difference.
Almost everything we sell. The item must be identical, including model number, components and U.S. warranty. For wireless phones and other items with a service plan, the plan, provider, and other terms must be the same. The item must be in stock and available for purchase at that price from an authorized US reseller, whose authorization we reserve the right to verify.
Which items and services aren’t available for price match?
We don’t match our store prices to those on other companies’ web sites. We don’t price match our third–party providers' products and services (e.g., Sprint® service, tax preparation, payroll services, and custom printing), items sold on auction sites or at local or special events (e.g., grand opening, anniversary or liquidation sales). We don’t price match taxes and typographical errors.
If you find a lower price in one of our stores, catalogs or on Staples.com®, we’ll match the lower price, however the additional 10% of the price difference does not apply. If an item is marked "clearance", the clearance price is only valid for in stock product that is marked at that clearance price.

Are delivery charges included in the price match?
Yes. When we compare our price to another company's delivery price, the equivalent delivery charges will be included. If the other company's delivery charges are not supplied, we will add $7.95 to the other company's price.
Are quantities limited on price–matched products?
We may limit the quantities of price–matched items, particularly if the other company does. In addition, we reserve the right to limit quantities sold to a customer.
For policy information see customer service desk in store or call 1–800–333–3330. For a price match see customer service desk in store or call 1–800–333–3330. This policy is subject to change without notice.
All its saying is they will dedcut coupon and instant rebates for price match and I believe this was always the case. Its a different matter that they start enforcing it now. But nowhere it says No more Pricematch. Red.
