This week in the Office Depot ad it has the S3is advertised for 249.00 before a $50 mail in rebate. This is only available in store.

I checked the local store here and in the store they have it listed at 349.00 and 299 after the rebate.. They honored the ad price for me. :)

So if you are looking for an s3is you may want to check the ads for your area, as I am not sure if they use the same ad in each area.

I work for Office Depot, it's nice you found a store willing to honor the misprint but that's what it as, we were notified two days before the ad was circulated it was a misprint. It was supposed to be $349 and the $50 gift card.

Such is the price of corporate incompetence.

EDIT: Rereading what you wrote, it was supposed to be $249 after the $50 gift card even in the misprinted ad. What'd you end up paying for it?

They're dropping like flies but seem to still hold some value. I got mine for $270 back in february, which was weird and well before the S5, but it was the last one on display. idk. I love it, but it hasn't seen much action lately since my 5MDH purchase. Perfect bag to carry my DSLR essentials. It goes everywhere with me.

Probably about what it is worth now with the dropping price of the S5. Some of the OD stores are just super to their customers. The ones in Tulsa being 2 of them. Friendly, with what I consider great customer service. I just bought a laptop from them a few weeks ago. They actually give you a 14 day return, no questions asked. Try that at CC or BB.
