53 views and 1 response...you information whores :twoguns:

[Dead of Knight]

As CheapyD would say.... weak sauce. Thank you for posting anyway.

[abreed]

The depression sets in... why do I have a feeling all the pulled $5 games are going to return as copies of FIFA 2001 and NCAA Gamebreaker 2001.

[Akkis99]

I want your honest truth. Do youi tink CC is restocking?

[The Successful Dropout]

i think some are....i know personally that the one near me gets a couple games a day (at least, they may get more that the employees get first dibs on b4 they open)....i went there every day for 4 days in a row and they continued having games that i know they didnt have before

another one told me they'll be restocking 3 times a week until the end of july

[6669]

Thanks, trust.

[danh920]

some good 3 for 20 dvds'

[epobirs]

You gotta love the amount of space they waste on items that are not especially new and at SRP. Especially Target which always puts the phrase 'low price' next to everything, SRP or otherwise. This is the dullness bought with co-op ad funds.

[Rubberlegs]

Reservoir Dogs for $9. I'm all over that. It's a great thing you do trustcompany. Thanx

[maxflight]

thanks for posting! doesn't seem like that much good stuff besides the $4.99 ^^

[Jaket]

i will prob pick up riddick and full spectrum warrior for 35 a piece a BB this weekend, that a pretty good deal if you ask me!

[Benaorn]

If CC doesn't have any 4.99 titles left, that would be fault advertisement? Man Target NCAA promotion is weak sauce 3 dollars off 12 or 24 pack of coca cola...... I wish they would give a 10 dollars gift card like CC.

[DiscoDuck8k]

Yep.. but I doubt any CC will not have atleast a couple 4.99 titles. Like the sports ones.. they seem to have an endless amount of those.

Hmm.. I have my doubts but I still think I'll check the store here Sunday.

[ElwoodCuse]

Gee, I wonder where I am going to buy NCAA 2005, a place giving me a $10 gift card, or a place giving me some free soda?

Question--My Circuit City has accepted my GGC coupons in the past, but that was for price only. Anyone have any luck getting them to accept the coupon and give you a gift card as well?

FSW for $35 is awful tempting too, but if it's on sale this fast, I can wait another month or two for it to be $29.99.

[MeGaWC27]

tru... so they'll prob have games that nobody wants, like those sports games being left behind.

[Admiral Ackbar]

I knew that's what CC would advertise when it came to $5 games. They did that a few monthso ago with that "Up to 50%off" sale when none of the games were discounted.

[donssword]

i will prob pick up riddick and full spectrum warrior for 35 a piece a BB this weekend, that a pretty good deal if you ask me!


Speaking on Riddick, VIn Diesel blew it yesterday in an interview when he revealed they are working on a PS2 port of the game. I guess they want that magic sales volume on the title that only Sony can deliver. Should be interesting to see the sales numbers.

[lordopus99]

All over 3 for 20 on dvds. I wish NCAA was a little on sale (the target deal on it is uber lame). I will still end up getting it.

[magilacudy]

Here's hoping they restock... *crossing fingers*.

[guessed]

Reservoir Dogs for $9. I'm all over that. It's a great thing you do trustcompany. Thanx

It is a great movie, but $9 is not that great a price. It can often be found cheaper at B&M stores in 2 for or 3 for offers, and DDD has it for $7.97 shipped (http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=LVD013147) (they don't charge tax, and it is in stock).

[bhfgamer]

I think I'll buy NCAA Football 2005 at CC and then with my gift card I'll get 2 $5 games

[wubb]

well their went my price matching fantasys

Yours and mine both. Oh well.

[chickenhawk]

Thanks for the post!

[TinTinNews]

Hi, trustcompany1013, i wonder do they have the $4.99 games for PS2 jsut like last week???

[vanlandw]

yeah....weak ad this week..other then the 4.99 games but i've already gon shoppin for that one!

[BustaUppa]

I haven't done much research yet... is $35 for a PS2 net adapter a pretty good deal? My house should be getting broadband soon so I'm very interested in buying one of those.

[maxgle]

BustaUppa, that is the retail price, only if you dont mind paying $35

[eldad9]

"$4.99 clearance on select game titles. Titles vary by store. In-store only."
Were there any pictures by this???

[mynameisjonas]

An employee at my store said that there would be a restock. However, im doubting it will be for anything worthwhile. 70 percent of the games on the list were extremely low stock or discontinued.
At least at the circuit near me. Probably wont be worth it to check out the "advertised sale".

[Chris Dillon]

nothing much. I may pick up Bourne Identity.
Thanx Trust you were right about the day of release.

[Kaijufan]

Nothing Im intrested in, except the CC games. Ill be in Chicago this weekend, so Im sure that all of the stores near me are sold out of them allready.

[Mishimaryu]

meh, nothing but good movie deals this week.....

[redrobot]

all those games seem so expensive after this week.
Thanks Trust, you are the man...

[Richter]

If CC doesn't have any 4.99 titles left, that would be fault advertisement? no because there will always be them sports titles & copies of haven

=P

[Nastyman!]

A little OT:

But how is the PS2 going to do Normal Mapping? Can it handle Normal Mapping? I was under the impression it couldn't. If it can then there is no reason for Doom III not to be on the PS2.

[Benaorn]

Do you know when will Target have NCAA 2005? Is it the 12 or 15?

[laparka72]

I know there will be only crap come 4.99 sale time...at least in my area.
I overheard employees discussing how they snagged all the 5 dollar games last time and gave em to friends and ebayed the rest and how they were going to get the next shipment. I angrily looked for a manager and lo and behold, he was head of the ebay crew. So annoying...

Send an E-Mail or letter to the head office that you heard them say this. Nothing may come of it, but it never hurts to try.

[ElwoodCuse]

The new Circuit City here has the $4.99 bin out already (it opened today) but all that was in it was old sports games. None of the other listed games were even on the shelf, will have to check back Sunday.

[isaac]

So this is a Clearance sale, not a permanent price drop, right? I know it's been asked before but I couldn't find the answer.

[howard]

Thanks as always.

[dokkeynot]

Will places pricematch without pictures?

COuldnt they call CC and see?

[DealHunter]

53 views and 1 response...you information whores :twoguns:

*ROTFLMAO*

I went to Toy R Us yesterday and they said they would price match too.

[bhfgamer]

How come no one advertised Tales of Symphonia? Is it really that much of a niche game? Or did it get delayed?

[lordopus99]

its not delayed. sometimes companies don't know what is good plus one of the hottest titles of the year (NCAA FOOTBALL) comes out the same day so they probably didn't want it cluttering the pages. I plan on getting both (already have my tales preordered at my store, and preordered at TRU for College to use coupon)

[hiccupleftovers]

Resevoir dogs for $9 is pretty good so i might pick that up when i head there this weekend to see if the restocked. Thanks Trust, now i won't have to buy the paper.

Here's hoping that they restock and by restock do it with some good games other than sports titles.

[JEKKI]

ahhhhh~~~ what the hell?!?!

no Tales of Symphonia deals... gotta go preorder it at gamestop or something now. I hope it's not to late and I can get the free artbook or whatever

[Murcielago77]

NCAA Football 05 w/ 2 free 20oz bottles of any Coca-Cola product


isnt this kinda promoting espn sports games with those coke caps?

[jazzman]

Nothing worthwhile this week

[nogard]

Must go wait outside CC on the night of 7/10.

[Indonesia]

looks like some gamers will camp outside CC :D :D

[gamefreak117]

thanks, I'm going to stand in line about 1 hour before my local Circuit City opens, and spend about $40 of $4.99 Xbox games. :)

[DisturbedZen]

Crap.. Hopefully they will still have some 4.99 games at my CCs.

[Magician]

I guess that means no price matching at Best Buy then. They refuse to call CC for a price match. Maybe Toys'R'Us..... Last time I checked they had several copies of Disgaea and Viewtiful Joe.... Not to mention an ICO....

Does three dollars off coke really appeal to anyone?

[Benaorn]

My CC already started the sale. I think they had all the games out in a bin already. Most of them are shitty games like 2002 sports and really old games.

[fireball343]

Getting CS.High road to revenge for $20 with BB coupon. Thanks TrustCompany

[jackoman]

thanks for the post, guess ill be gettin ncaa at circuit city

[GundamFan]

Yo thanks for the post trustcompany! Anyway i was wondering how you get these ads early.

Oh yeah and to anyone else...Do you think Toys r Us will pricematch by phone? I think I saw a few games on the 4.99 list there.

[tubtub]

If you are extremely lucky TRU will price match. The official policy is that you must have a print ad in order to price match. Also, the policy states that the item must be in stock at the other store, but they will only call if the difference is greater than $15. Since there aren't any games pictured for the $4.99 sale it will be extremely hard to get any store to match the price, but some people have gotten lucky before.

[Larsin]

Thanks for the heads up. Too bad there's nothing of my interest.

[roguejedi5]

Checked my local CC again today and they have 3 bins of $5 games and most of them were OLD sports games! Nothing that I really wanted, but I am hoping sunday would at least bring 1 game that I want.

[Killdozer]

When I was at some other stores tonight I asked the guys if they could enter in some UPC codes so I could see if there was anything in transit or in wearhouse.
I tried Dark Cloud 2, Disgea, and Armored Core 3, none across the board. None in store, none in wearhouse, and no in transit :(

[rimsforsale]

[jrutz]

For those interested in picking up Full Spectrum Warrior:

The latest EGM (August) has a $5 coupon in the add for FSW. Maybe if you are lucky you could combine? But good for those who can't find the GGC.

[Kain Vincent]

Looks like I'm heading to CC this sunday... :D

[jimmydykes]

i went to toys r us and they said i had to have an ad. so i was planning on copying a list from the internet and show them those are the 4.99 games and hopefully they will honor the list i get. best buy said i could get a copy of a receipt. so if any of you have copies of receipts post them. best buy and toys r us still have good ones like m v c 2 or doa vb.

[Dave Mark]

Finally, NCAA 2005!!

Now I'll see if this rain check from Target that has been burning a hole in my pocket was worth the trouble.

[enorth]

Wait... 50 bux for PS2 and Xbox? I'm going to pick up NCAA Football 2005 at CC Monday....

[ElwoodCuse]

Unless they are feeling really generous or are stupid beyond belief, they are just going to laugh at your internet list or scanned copy of a receipt from god knows where.

[myqq]

Thanks pal!

[Graystone]

I heard that CC will have a small quantity on games online for 4.99.

[Final Starman]

Slim pickings, maybe I could get Resevoir Dogs though.

[daria19]

I saw that CC had a few games online for $4.99 earlier this week, but of course they were all sold out at the time. The CC here (southern CT) didn't have much when I went there wednesday night. Alot of old sports titles, and demo disks mostly. The clerk that I talked with said that some guy bought 60 (!) xbox games the first day of the sale when the store opened, then returned about half of them when he realized that they were crap! I am going to stop by tomorrow, but I don't have high expectations considering the greedy nature of some of these people. I am certainly not going to camp there all night, though. And, another thing that apparently some don't realize is that the games will not sell for much on ebay if the supply far exceeds the demand.

[zewone]

Is there going to be any good deals on hard drives in any of the ads trustcompany1013? I need one for my PS2.

[Demolition Man]

Yo thanks for the post trustcompany! Anyway i was wondering how you get these ads early.

Many areas's newspapers have an early edition of the Sunday paper that comes out on Saturday that has the Sunday ads in it. That's how some people find out a day ahead of time what is on sale at what stores.

[DrunkTigerWoods]

I went to two local CCs last time and they had no games that I wanted(and barely any from the list). Should I bother trying tomorrow? Will CC have restocked?

[UberCAG]

the word is that they have to and will restock, seeing how thats when its supposed to start, its in the ad and if they dont u can accuse bait and switch

[nasum]

how could they restock games that they are clearing out?

[Vthornheart]

rofl, they're probably being compelled to do so since so many people found out about it and cleared it out before it was even advertised. =)

[Lord Hamm]

I might have to get NCAA Football.....

[Mishimaryu]

no good rain check deals at Target this week. :?
