Meijers at 15 and Haggarty (for the MI people) has multiple copies of "VIP", "Boxing", "Shooter", "Top Shop"(board game thingy), and "Duke Nukem: Time to Kill" all for $1. Sure, the games are kinda sucky, but they're fun to screw around with, and since us Michiganders (yep, thats how its said :P) have Gamerush's near us, we can have fun with that trade 2 get 1 for 9.99 deal.

EDIT - Well, my brain started working again. I picked up these game for .75 due to the fact they ahve an overall %25 off clearance items. So yeah, go save more money.

the list so far:

Duke Nukem: A Time To Kill
WWF Warzone
V.I.P.
Top Shop
Boxer
Shooter(um...even more ymm)
*new* motocross mania

Hmmm, $12 then for a game at Gamerush then....do ALL Gamerush's accept PS1 games? I could be in for some trading for that.

Top Shop received good reviews (when it received review), and Shooter is supposed to be entertaining for its price.

Hmmm... Top Shop also happens to be very rare.

Can I get anyone to pick one up for me and ship it via Media Mail for a total of $3 bucks or so?

If they have Tall Infinity for $1, I need that too for super ass cheap. Just PM me.

Duke Nukem Time to Kill is a good deal for 75 cents. It's a fairly good game. I picked it up a few years ago and felt that I got my money's worth.

I didn't see any more Duke Nukem TTK at my Meijer, but I didn't really look too hard. They still have copies of WWF Warzone for $1. I use to own that game long ago, but traded it in to Funcoland.

Have you checked the Meijer at 8 & Haggerty? May have to check the one up here at gay ole Mt Pleasant to see if they have anything worth 75 cents.

Hey I don't have one of these nearby but if you could pick up 14 or 15 of these with as good a variety as you can I'd appreciate it. I can pay of course for them and shipping and a bit for your troubles. Let me know through aim or pm if you can thanks a ton

BTW, so far, V.I.P. is one part dance/fighting game, one part Virtua Cop...my head freakin hurts...ITS NOT THAT BAD!!! *goes and hides in the corner...with the manual...*

Also, V.I.P. and Duke Nukem gives you 3.50 total in trade. not bad for 1.50, let alone taking $30 off of Red Dead Revolver

When I went about 30 minutes one guy grapped A BUNCH

I only took a couple more :)

they said 25 percent off clearence items. So that gamershark I think is 3.40 then the 25 percent off if thats marked clearence which I think it is.

are these marked at 1.00 or do you have to just have them scanned?

I was able to pick up four games at the Washington Township location at 26 mile and Van Dyke (not sure if any CAGs live around here, I haven't seen anyone post that they do). I scanned all of the playstation games they had in the clear plastic clamshell cases with bright inserts, which wasn't too many, and came up with only four $1 titles: Boxing, Action Bass, WWF War Zone, and VIP. If anyone lives around here, there was at least one of each left.

I might stop by the Rochester Hills location, so if anyone has checked it out, let me know your results.

I'm also intersted in "Top Shop", for some reason it sounds appealing to me, so if anyone has an extra one, or one they don't want give me a PM or post here.

Top Shop
Tall Infinity
