I believe the Citi card offers price protection called Price Rewind program. Within 30 days, you can use this service to search retailers for reduced price. As long as they found it, and you still have your old receipt, you can apply for the refund...

I don't think any place is going to do a price adjustment on a phone you've had for nearly 3 months.
unless you just bought it within 30 days ago with a Citi Card...and the program will get you that refund...
just saying that you can..

Bought a 16gb iPhone 5 on December 3rd for $199.
Just called BB and they told me to bring in the receipt and they'll refund me $50 to match their current sale price of the iPhone.
They said you would have to be within the return period.
If you paid cash they'll give you $50 back. If you paid by CC they'll put $50 back on your card.
Just thought I'd share.

That's the price you pay for being that " gotta get it on the first day " kind of guy.
Cost of bragging rights = $50!
