Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Illinois

Wrong Pay Per Month

I had to make a move at the spur of the moment and moved into an Efficiency (Studio) which was for $610, somewhere along the way I forgot the pricing and starting paying $630 for about 6 months. While cruising their advertisement of apartments on the Net it was listed that the Efficiencies were for $610. I would like to know if I can get that $20 difference over the 6month period reimbursed back to me.
