$220 here at Saint Louis Park, MN location (Minneapolis suburb). Thanks for the heads-up - I'll keep tab. If it drops to ~$179 or less, will definitely pull the trigger. I have a very nice Gigabyte Z590 motherboard just sitting useless (Newegg forced me to buy it as a bundle with the RTX-3080).

Retailers want the positive impression of price matching so you buy locally, but have so many restrictions that they generally don't price match anything. Walmart won't price match their own website.

At this point, I'd prefer retailers just put a "Price as marked. All sales final." sign like a flea market for better transparency.

In my experience (NJ) MC doesn't even match Newegg price when there's a coupon code required, which is pretty much every NE deal nowadays. The cashier actually recommended me to place an order with NE right away (crucial RAM)

I bought this chip one year ago for $350 at Microcenter. I can't believe how fast the price depreciated.

$249 in the ATL. I would have definitely bought one. I'll have to keep an eye out to see if it changes. Their sales usually start midweek.
For me, Its showing up as $220 for the Duluth, GA store.

Thank you, got one today, but they don't have z490 or z590 on sale. Most of the motherboards in store are expensive than Newegg even with the $20 off.
Try to have them ( Microcenter) price match Newegg, I did that when my son and I were shopping for his build. They have the manager come over and adjust the price to match Newegg and he didn't bat an eye about it.

As I type this, I am waiting in line to check out at the Tustin location for my CPU with an MSI Z490-A Pro motherboard. Long lines, but there appear to be more of these in stock. Go straight to the back left of the store and ask for an employee to help you. Good luck!

~1100 still in stock as of this posting. So if you are thinking of heading down, there's a very good shot of still getting one.

I was going to get an Alder Lake, but heck my i5-10400 is good enough for everything I want to do.

This is not FP, it's just popular, and they only have one store in all of California. It's relevant now so more people have to see it before it dies like their $50 chromebook deal.
Ahh, yes, looks like when viewed on my phone browser SD defaults to the "For You" deals page, no wonder I've been seeing so many computer parts lately on SD... I just saw the 60+ likes and assumed it was FP, DOH! Ha ha
