We can't boycott somebody, when we know we are doing something wrong... but still doing it.

The one that was supposed to be packaged with Hardboiled. My store ended up getting them in as all stores should have like the very next week. But they were probably thrown out. I snagged one before ours got trashed. I'm trying now to find a scanner so I can scan it and upload it so you all can use it. It's just some generic coupon anyhow.

I think they are counting the $50 'price break' in with that.

$50.00 Price Break
$49.99 Controller
$19.99 Game
-----------
$119.98

Just my guess, though.

Still may be a hot CC deal on the 360. Take the controller and game back (since the deduct free items from the price of the larger item) and you've got a 360 for $280. I wonder if there are any coupons we can use to make it really hot...

welcome to xbox live....use the cheat code in exchange for the ability to get achievements...

One of the best things about achievement points is their impact on "cheat codes". If you want your gamerscore to go up, you have to do it the old-fashioned way: you earn them, (credit to John Houseman).

That's not to say that I have never used a cheat code, (the ammo,armor cheat for GTA3, GTA VC, and GTA SA in particular), because I have. But I find myself less interested in knowing what codes are out there in recent years. And having to earn Achievements has been part of the reason.

I'll be using 10% off coupon for the whole thing. The one problem I do have is if its only the 360 + Table Tennis bundle, because those are all non-HDMI premiums...

But if they give me the controller without the game and a newer 360, I'll definitely bite.

Thanks for the help with the edits, typing all of this up in HTML code is a real pain.

As for the $119.98 'price break', that's exactly what it means - they are including the $50 price drop of the Premium unit in the savings. If it's anything like they've done in the past, the extra controller should be full price and the savings taken away from the controller. I'm 100% certain that the game is a pack-in, but you may get lucky and find a store that has run out of that pack.

I also edited in what you have latched on as the best deal in the title. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

I'm sorry, but I really don't understand this. Are you saying we should purchase things at Circuit City to show appreciation for seeing the ads early? Then posting how much we spent?

Huh? How does that make any sense?

We're supposed to boycott Circuit City to show how much we appreciate getting these ads early, to show that we do not approve of CC's actions against CAG and speedy1961.

CC is subpoenaing CAG due to lost funds by people not shopping there. If you take the ads and shop there, that might give them less of a reason to continue their legal action?

As in, CC doesn't care if people who only buy loss leaders never shop at their stores again?

angryrooster
08-31-2007, 07:07 PM
is best buy likely to match the 360 deal if one's local CC only has the non-hdmi bundles?

I don't think most retailers would take this into consideration. After all, the ad doesn't say "non-HDMI model."

The issue you might run into with the price match is in this clause of the BB PM policy: Exclusions:
The Best Buy Price Guarantee does not apply to our or our competitors' free offers, limited-quantity items, open-box items, clearance items, mail-in incentives, financing or bundle offers. The policy does not apply to typographical errors or a competitor's price that results from a price match.

So since this is a bundle offer, some Best Buys might not honor it... but they aren't the strictest with this policy. If I get to Best Buy, and they have the HDMI version, I am totally going for the PM there. Especially since they likely won't have the Table Tennis game and knock that off the price(or give me an equally priced game, either way).

Hopefully it works out and I get an HDMI premium with a second controller and a game I'll actually play for $349 ;)

Anyone else notice that the Circuit City ad says "Now Available" above Stranglehold on the last page? I may check up on that today.

Nothing too exciting for me this week , Half-Life 2 is nice but I'll probably just wait for the orange box set. Age of Mythology is nice too but it's not available online , and I don't feel like driving to CC just for that. So all that's left for me this week is the Starcraft Battle Chest. I've always wanted the PC version , I've only been able to play the N64 version before now.

I just bought it at a local CC for $48. I had to go to customer service to get it and it rang up as $59.99, but got it for the right price with the ad.

FYI I got Walmart to PM CC's ad on the 360 to a point. As they do not carry Table Tennis they could not give it to me for free nor would they sub any other game but I did get the 360(HDMI) and wireless controller for 349.99. They dropped the price of the 360 to 329.99 and the controller to 20.00.

For anyone wondering I did manage to get my local BB to PM the CC deal. So I got a HDMI Premium with a free controller and 19.99 game for 349.99 plus tax

OooOoOOoOOoOoOooo, TheAdMan, very mysterious. Nice little disclaimer at the top though. :P

And something you missed was that Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks The 80s is on sale for $39.99 at Target. aThey had a few other games listed but all the others were MSRP.

God damn it. My bull shit BB had some dumbass lady who cited the "no promotional offers" clause against the "two days only!" part of the CC ad for price matching. I even asked her to show it to me in writing and she busted it out after 15 minutes of searching. What do I do fellow CAG's?!?

Unfortunately I don't have any other BB's close by or I would've driven to them. I even ended up convincing myself of buying it at CC itself but I couldn't find a premium with the HDMI so I left. Are there any other stores that pricematch? KMart perhaps?

Anyone think there would be an issue taking that controller back? They probably can't deny the return the way the online receipt reads.

Check the deals thread from when CC did the free controller deal with the PS3 at the price drop point for the success rate with some CAGs.

For previous deals like this one (buy a console, get a controller and game free), I've been able to turn the "freebies" for full price without a problem. The way CC does their free items, they've got no reason to deny the return.

Anything guaranteed by 2PM for Circuit City this week? Thinking of stopping by later today...

Stranglehold was at CC yesterday when I was hunting for Halo Accessories.. Guess the delay didn't hit them?

I was hoping someone decided to put them out early like Toys did with Bioshock! No luck *cry*

Hey, guys, I have a question (I might need to post this in a new thread though).

My buddy just bought a new XBox 360 from Best Buy this week. He didn't use the Circuit City deal.

If he brings the ad and his receipt up to Best Buy, can he get the price adjustment and get the stuff free from the Circuit City deal? Or does the 110% adjustment not apply to free stuff deals?

It's a YMMV. Two Best Buys didn't allow me to PM it citing it as a "promotional offer" - one for the "2 days only" part and the other for the free items. The third Best Buy did it for me.

you could've spent just over $40 because of this thread. there is a $10 off the $48 coupon in another thread.

I ended up picking up Stranglehold for $40... Circuit City had the game for $47 in their weekly ad, and I found a $10 off Stranglehold coupon on Slickdeals.com. I think the original coupon came with the DVD edition of Hard Boiled, but I printed it out and it worked fine. Awesome game for $37+tx!
