BestBuy UK - false advert con

If anyone has seen yesterday or todays Metro paper (London area) you may have seen an ad in there for Best Buy (the massive US Currys like place now here in the UK) offering Gran Turismo 5 for the PS3 for 29.99 for one day only.
Well it came out today and funnily enough its selling on the Best Buy site for 37.99 and not 29.99. So I called them and they said they sold out all the 29.99 ones! RIP OFF! There is nothing in the ad that limits it to anything other than ONE DAY ONLY!
You could not pre order it from them yesterday either.
So I have emailed them also. Pretty shady advertising if you ask me.
Just to let you know. Id use a more reputable store in future!
Cheers

they do this with all the big new releases - limited to the 1st 1000 customers I think - 1 copy per customer0
