Some stores in my area are advertising a $50 price drop on all 360 consoles. I was wondering if it was permanent only a limited time offer?
Thanks

Why is everyone saying $250 for Premium?? Premium was always $399 in Canada & the US, with a $50 drop its now $349. Futureshop has it for $349 bundled with Turok, but it seems like a limited time offer.

Edit:

seems permanent. Even the US site for Walmart shows the price drop.

Well, in the past, Canadian currency was worth less than US currency, but the price of the systems were the same in both countries. So, if adjusting for currency rates, the canadians were paying less for a 360 than their US neighboors. However, somewhat recently, the Canadian currency is now worth more than US currency, so if was priced at $399 before, it should be priced cheaper now. Prehaps this is the reason for the recent decrease in price.
