So, I just got my Nook last week when it had the $50 gift card offer. I was a little surprised and upset about the price drop today since I had spent more not even 5 days ago! But, I called the B&N that I got my Nook from and it turns out that if you bought the Nook very recently and did not use your $50 gift card, you can bring in your receipt, return your gift card for a $50 refund and they refund you the $10 difference. The Nook was $209 with the gift card offer and they willl refund the difference. That's $60 back!
Now if you were like me and you used the gift card to buy a great cover and bought a few books, they will only refund you the $10 difference in the price of the Nook. Still not a bad deal! Overall happy with how my B&N branch is handling the price change.
If anyone else needs to do it, I hope it is the policy in all, but I would inquire first since it may vary by store.
