I read about it at Evilavatar.com, which gave it much props and so I decided to become a cheapass gamer myself.

I'm wanting to say I clicked on a banner ad...but I don't think this place ever had banner ads.

I clicked on an ad in Egmmag.com which is now 1up.com. It's weird because now that I am a member, this doesn't seem like the type of site to put out ads.

I totally remember getting this website address from EGM (which I think is the bible for video game reviews). EGM had a piece on how to buy video games cheaply. The next month in the Letters section someone appropriately ripped the article for being lame and did not give any practical information on how to get video games cheaply. In the letter, the person mentioned this website (and fat wallet). I would love to shake the hand of the person who sent that letter to EGM because this is one of my favorite sites.

WHO was that person that had that letter printed in EGM?????????????????????

Looks like this will be one of those recurring thread topics, which gets revisited from time to time. Let's see, we've got:

1.) How old are CAG's?
2.) How much do CAG's spend per month on games?
3.) What does your username/avatar represent?
and of course:
4.) Why don't people run a search through past threads before starting new ones?

From DJWins (CheapyD) on Gamefaqs. He asked me to be a moderator on this site when he first started making it. To tell you the truth, at first I thought this wouldn't work and there would only be a few posts a day, but now it has become HUGE. Good job CheapyD and all the members for contributing!

I really have no idea. I think maybe from an advertisement on a site (not a banner ad, but someone was talking about CAG).

Bluetoast or a friend of his on gamefax posted it on the boards of each system, after he said he had college or something, and won't be posting much of his weekly daily deals anymore there. Please correct me if I'm wrong, because I might have switched somethings up.
