Here's the video game software listings from the DFW, LA, and SJ Fry's Ad(s). These prices are valid only for the dates listed in the subject line.
The items listed below are as they appear in the Fry's Ads. If an item is listed as "SJ only", for example, it could still be on sale at other locations (i.e. - San Diego, Sacremento, Austin, Houston, NV, AZ, WA, OR, IL, GA), but it only appeared in the SJ ad. We have noticed that the Dallas Morning News and SJ Mercury News often run very similar ads. Also, the Chicago ads are often similar to the LA Times ads. However, since these ads are not available online, I cannot confirm them.
If anyone knows of a website to view any further ads, please let me know.
Unless otherwise indicated, items below are listed in all three (DFW, LA, and SJ) ads.
News: The Atlanta is having its Grand Opening! Sorry, Atlanta, no online ads in the AJC yet.
Ad updates:
DFW and LA: Fri-Mon, Weds
SJ: Everyday

How can Fry's have no mention of Phantom Brave, Pikmin 2, OR Star Ocean?? I'm so disappointed/confused.

Mid-week releases are usually mentioned in the Friday/weekend inserts.

Do yourself a favor and get this... if you liked the first one but hated the time limit, you'll be floored with how playable the game is now with unlimited time (to explore, there still is a day/night time to get to the ship by)...

Me too... I bought the paper today JUST for the Fry's ad. 'Figured they'd have pikmin 2 on sale, for sure.
Darn.

I'd buy NHL2k5 for that price even though I am not a sports game fan. Damn you Fry's for having 0 stores in the NE!

What, $13.99 isn't cheap enough? ;)
Fry's doesn't match competitor coupons. If I remember correctly, they don't even have a pricematching policy. But it's been years since I tried doing that.

What are we here for... :) Aren't we looking for the cheapest price? :)
I'm getting the game anyways, but this way I can get it for friends at a cheaper price.
