Not sure if this is the proper forum, so if not please feel free to move but I figured it definitely pertains to games and those trading.

The limit on these 6 x 9 bubble mailers is 6 with a coupon.

I've already used a few and they're of very good quality.

Beats paying anywhere from 67 to 75 cents apiece.

Sale runs till this Sunday only.

Not the right forum, but thanks anyway. It'll come in handy for people who trade stuff around here

Thats actually pretty good to stock up on a few since sometimes bubblemailers could cost you almost a buck a piece.

I'm not sure why, but a target near me sells a pack of 6 6x9's for $.74 and 8.5x11's for $.99 normal price. It's the only Target that sells them that cheap. Check your targets they may sell them cheap too.

So PS2/GC/X-Box games fit in 6x9's?

yup, they fit. sometimes it's a tight squeeze, but don't give up. i bought a crapload of these through office max on that deal a couple weeks back, but i can confirm they're nice and cheap at walgreens. good deal.

if you search on ebay you can get them for like $.30 each with shipping, but you have to buy like 50 or 100.

Just keep the bubble mailers that you get from ebgames or bestbuy. They're bigger and I use them when I sell games or other accessories that can fit in them.

Yeah, the prices on EBay are good. I paid $0.29 shipped for 8.5"X12" ones when I bought 100 (I always had trouble fitting Gamecube and GBA games [w/ box] in the 6"X9" envelopes and a lot of times the envelope would tear)

I get mine from Office Max or Office Depot and they're like 25 for $12 or $13.

Agreed, I buy mine from ebay.. I dont see whats wrong with the 6x9s for the Xbox games.. Gamecube is different since thier corners arent rounded.

I picked up three 8.5 X 11, nice price. Saw my friend working there, he helped me get a coupon in the store.

If you sell/trade a lot, just buy a roll of bubblewrap [the bigger the box, the cheaper per square foot], a roll of brown kraft paper [usually 1.50 or so], and a roll of good packing tape. You're set for a long long time...I've been working on the same box of bubblewrap for over a year. I have had to buy an additional roll of kraft paper, but each one will wrap many many games/cd's/dvd's. Or just use paper bags from the grocery store.
And of course if you recieve something, keep the bubblewrap. You can even use the plastic bags from the grocery store as padding. I don't know about you, but the way they pack my groceries, I always have about a hundred of those on hand.
Office Depot has a 75 sq ft box for 9.98. If you use two sheets to wrap a game, and about 1 foot of kraft paper, total cost is something like 29 cents.
The price at Walgreens' is pretty comparable, but I never understood why people would pay 75 cents to a dollar for those envelopes when it can be done better, cheaper. If you want to buy them in bulk, you can get them cheaper, but then you're locked into shipping things of that size.
