E.B. flyer for GPL ($29.95) - anybody got a scanner - I want to see it!

If there's anybody out there who has a copy of the Electronics Boutique
Grand Prix Legends flyer, with the promised price of $29.95(/..99?), and who
has a COLOUR SCANNER. I would appreciate it someone could scan it and post
it to somewhere like alt.binaries.simulators.autos
or email it to me..

I am curious as to what it looks like (If you don't have a scanner, would
anybody care to give me a description? Pictures, backgrounds, wording, etc.)

I'm in Canada and the local E.B. store doesn't have the flyer (U.S. only, I
believe).. Just wondering if it specifies "valid in United States ONLY" ...
otherwise if I can get my hands on one, I WILL take it in and DEMAND that
they give it to me for the stated price!!! (I always get my way!)

Btw, www.sierrasports.com has it listed for $49.95 US ..

Thanks in advance

        This low price can also be found listed in a multi-page EB
adverti***t in the September issue of PC Gamer.  On the top left portion
of the page is a screen shot of a smoking, burning Lotus cresting a hill
(Nurburgring?).  The accompanying text lists the price as $24.99.  Yes,
$24.99.
        Nowhere does it say U.S. only.  Common sense dictates that the
price is in US currency but that stil comes out to to about CDN$37.50.  
Not bad if it's not a mistake!

Thanks Martin for the info..

Sorry to burst your bubble Joe, but I knew about the ad probably 2 months
ago(?) when it first came out.. I was in E.B. Friday morning, and asked,
they had no clue.

But I'm sure MANY people will now go find the ad because of you :o))
