Coupon

Interestingly, the best buy page explicitly says the FM traffic receiver is not included (even though the Garmin website shows that as a feature of the 760). The costco page doesn't really say one way or the other, but the detailed model number they show (GRM0065710) seems to match up with the $360 one on Amazon, which explicitly says the FM traffic receiver _is_ included.

Has anyone had a chance to check at a best buy to see whether it has it or not?

it does have the feature.....you just have to buy the add-on.

Well, if the "feature" means it supports a plug-in traffic receiver, I believe all of the 7xx modules have the feature - all can use either an FM or MSN traffic receiver. In fact, I thought they were all the same device and just differed iin what maps were installed and what accessories were in the box, but apparently the 750 also lacks BT which the others have. At least according to the Garmin website, the (only?) other differences in the 7xx line are:

750 - different maps in different versions - no traffic receiver
760 - different maps in different versions - US or Euro FM traffic receiver included, depending on version, amount of prepaid service depends on version
770 - NA and Euro maps included - US or Euro FM traffic receiver included, depending on version, amount of prepaid service depends on version
780 - NA maps - MSN traffic receiver included plus 3 months service

So, if best buy is selling a unit with BT but without a traffic receiver, that doesn't match anything on Garmin's site and is likely a best buy special (and likely not the same as the 760 Costco and Amazon are selling, since I think those include the traffic receiver).

I just got back from my local BB and they would only use the $50 Rewards off of the in store $429 or price match the $349 at BB online, not both. It is a different one than at Costco the BB one is shinny black different than the Costco Silver/gray. I ordered 2 from Costco they are due to arrive on Monday ;-)

this is why BB sucks ass. Their B&M store has it for it for 424.99. They said they'll match the internet price, but won't accept the coupon.... it's considered 'double-dipping'. A--holes should have the same price on both......I swear I hate BB with a passion

So order the GPS online for instore pickup. Then, when you show up for the instore pickup, you present them with the coupon and ask to adjust your order.

It's should not then be considered double dipping since you're not asking them to "match" the online price, you're merely picking up an online order...

I got mine during lunch... came to about $309.50 all said and done, after tax.

For some reason she took an additional $15 off, even after the internet price of $349 and the $50 off coupon. I sorta lucked out, though - she couldn't read the SKU on the coupon I had printed off so her manager just came over and reduced it by another $50. I recommend to everyone that you bring in a LOW resolution ad.

This thing sounds amazing... I didn't know GPS units did so much.

All companies do this. Usually the online company is not run by the store it self.

Did you order online or purchase in store?

No luck, the sales guy seemed cool and tried to apply it but the $50 off wouldn't stick after price matching to the online price..
