[CheapyD]

[img-r=1]441[/img-r]I think we are all missing Circuit City right about now as we've got another week of ho-hum ads.

Best Buy has taken $10 off several Wii games including Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9269089&st=tiger+woods+10&lp=4&type=product&cp=1&id=1218072181615), Grand Slam Tennis (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9285659&st=grand+slam&type=product&id=1218074557717), and Boom Blox Bash Party (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9330645&st=boom+blox&lp=2&type=product&cp=1&id=1218086215315).

GameStop is running their a trade in promotion (http://www.gamestop.com/gs/specialty/tradeins/) in which 2 games = 10% bonus credit, 4 games = 20% and 6 or more gets 40% extra credit.

Read on for the rest of the deals.

Just curious if you could upload it to google docs

[kevdawg45]

I'd be interested in what 50"+ HDTV's are on sale in this ad. I'm ready to pull the trigger on one tonight, but I'm wondering what sales I'll miss out on Sunday.

Seems like a pretty terrible ad...at least for me.

[miriamleo]

From now on can you guys post any deal with iTunes card? They can be used for iTunes games.

[Link42]

Boom Blox Bash Party for $29.99 is a steal ($10 off MSRP). It got exceptional reviews (especially for a Wii game) and then sort of went under the radar.

[toomuchpie617]

what laptops or pc's are on sale this week?

[Got_Wii]

I almost bit on Boom Blox Bash Party when Target had it for $29.99 but didnt. Was on vacation and the Best Buy was about an hour drive from where we were and that was to far to see about price matching and getting the 150 bonus points they were offereing at the time.

[arcurifisher]

is it true target is coming down on any website that posts there ad early?

[yankeesfan330]

Is the deal on Tiger Woods 10 exclusive to Wii or does it also apply to the 360 version?

And are there any deals on iPod nanos, specifically 16gb?

[Got_Wii]

is it true target is coming down on any website that posts there ad early?

Yes several members received emails from Target asking them not to post the ad scans early on the site.

[MidnightMetal]

Is the deal on Tiger Woods 10 exclusive to Wii or does it also apply to the 360 version?

And are there any deals on iPod nanos, specifically 16gb?

The deal for Tiger is only on the Wii version (game only) and NO deals on the 16Gb Nano, on the 8Gb for 169.97 you get a AC charger (sku 8674669) and 2 plastic cases (sku 9077615)

[yankeesfan330]

Oh well. Thanks anyway though!

[BWS1982]

yeah I feel jerked around after seeing the Canadian Best Buy Summer gaming specials in that one scan, but I got pissed off and just ordered inFAMOUS from Ebay for $34 shipped brand new/sealed, so I'm not as bad off as I was. I keep waiting for Best Buy to put out some REALLY good weekly deals in the US, it seems like it's been a while for my desires.

I was at Best Buy earlier this week, and after looking at some of the sites that you CAG's put up (BNG, Gameroomdeals, etc..) Best Buy's "deals" seem less like deals. Such is the curse of frequenting this site (a good curse, if you will)...

[solid1127]

so that infamous deal for 30 doesnt come to u.s.?

[Tdogg2k8]

I'm also interested in knowing what the laptop deals are.
I know starting today if you buy a Laptop, you get a free Windows 7 upgrade in October.

but as far as whats will be on sale, bundles, and Credit Card Options can you let me know
(I just brought a laptop from there but the wireless card is defective so i have to plan out my next one, that i have to spend an extra 100 bucks on)


Infamous is a great game btw, if it was 29.99 I would def get it.

[Groucho]

Is there a price on Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood for the PC?

[ZForce]

$40 for Grand Slam Tennis intrigues me

[Bubbamel]

Is there a price on Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood for the PC?

Not sure if this helps. Not really related to the best buy ad, but if you preorder Call of Juarez on steam, you get the original one for free. Hope that helps! :)

[NeoStrider]

these are the laptops they have advertised, dunno if they're deals or not

HP
G60-445DX - $549
DV4-1435DX - $649

Dell
IM10-008B -$349
S1737-020B - $749

Sony
VGN-NW150J/S - $799

Toshiba
L505D-S5965 - $449

does BB still send out those 10% coupons for July 4th?

[Tdogg2k8]

Thank you NEO
i found out it wasnt my laptop but my connection at home so i dont need to change it over..
there new line of HP's are there already... said u probably wont see a sale for about 3-4 weeks

i believe they do still send out those coupons, im not sure if its the limited one though.

[daminion]

Any financing deals in the ad?

[averageguy]

Weak ad I live about 20 minutes from canada and another 25 mins from Best Buy. I was thinking of pre ordering the Infamous game and doing a road trip to get it.

[Jgriff25]

Is there anything in there about getting free stuff with a windows 7 preorder?

[stryker]

Thanks for the info NeoStrider!

Is the Sony Handycam Camorder HDR-XR500v (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9178418&st=xr500v&lp=1&type=product&cp=1&id=1218046368353) in the ad, if yes, how much?

[adonis 27]

kind of a week ad...hopefully more deals are online...or between July 2-4 or something....anyways, thanks OP!

[Tdogg2k8]

jgriff all they have right now is if you buy a laptop or Pc u get a free Windows 7 upgrade voucher in October.
I hey does anyone have the actual Scan yet?

i'm also looking for some financing oppturnies

[Groucho]

Not sure if this helps. Not really related to the best buy ad, but if you preorder Call of Juarez on steam, you get the original one for free. Hope that helps! :)

Thanks but I already have two copies of the first one on PC. It came out a year earlier in Europe and at the time I wasn't sure if it was going to get released in the states so I ordered one from England. A year later it was released in the USA and had all of the patches and updates so I bought another copy. I'm a HUGE western fan incase you couldn't tell. I'm also going to be without internet access at home for next year or so, so I wouldn't be able to download it anyway. I appreciate the information about the Steam version. I will pass it on to some friends that may buy the game.

If anyone finds out the prices and knows the cheapest place I can pick up the PC version this Tuesday please let me know!

Thanks!

[shrike4242]

Nothing that thrilling here, save an occasional "meh" deal:

Buy either a DSi or PSP (non-bundle pictured for PSP) and get a free case (packaged separately, no rainchecks, qty. limited)

The Legend Of Starfy (DS) - $29.99
Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince (available 06/30/09, 8AM) - DS @ $19.99, PS3 / 360 / Wii @ $39.99
Fight Night Round 4 - $59.99 for PS3 & 360
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 - $39.99 for PSP (pictured), $59.99 for PS3 / 360
Indiana Jones and The Staff Of Kings - $39.99 for PSP (pictured), $29.99 for DS or PS2
Monster Hunter Freedom Unite (PSP) - $29.99

So yes, this is pretty much a "meh" week.

[Widowmaker636]

any laptop/netbook sales?

[MrNEWZ]

I guess Harry Potter for $40 is a deal, right? Or did they tank MSRP for waiting a year?

[shrike4242]

any laptop/netbook sales?Just one, for the Asus 10" Eee PC, at $249.99. 160GB drive, 1GB RAM, Windows XP Home, Intel processor (probably an Atom N270, which isn't mentioned).

I guess Harry Potter for $40 is a deal, right? Or did they tank MSRP for waiting a year?Your guess is as good as mine. Shows $49.99 on Amazon for the PS3 and 360 versions, $46.99 for the Wii version, DS version is $32.49 and $29.99 for the PS2 version.

I guess it's a deal.

[tylerdurden689]

$40 for Grand Slam Tennis intrigues me

It's a really fun game. Don't believe what reviewers are saying about the controls being tough to learn. It literally took me 5 mins to learn the "hard" control system. The online play is really fun too.

[drktrpr1]

looks like $49.99 is MSRP for Potter, so 40 is a deal I suppose. Might pick it up if I find some time, or just make this a rental.

[gate_keeper]

I think the dsi deal with a free case is good since a case usually cost: $9.99 then the Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince for $19.99 when the retail price everywhere else is $29.99 so thats a $10 saving is a very good deal.

[icedrake523]

Thought there'd be something decent for 4th of July.

[FlamedLiquid]

Thought there'd be something decent for 4th of July.


There could be a seperate ad for 4th of July sales.............or so I'm hoping.

[BWS1982]

Yeah, meh is pretty accurate. I was thinking the same for the Fourth sales, but maybe they'll release specials for like "this weekend only" since it's a Saturday....I can tell you one thing, most likely hear about a special sale if it exists on this site before I see it in the mail or elsewhere.:D

[Organ Donor]

Nothing for me. Thanks for the ad, shrike.

[deszaras]

Arghhh. They bundled that PS3 bundle with the exact same tv I bought about a month ago. Anyone know if there's a way to get some kind of adjustment so I can get the bundle?

[technole]

Just bring your receipt in and they should be able to do a price match, just explain the situation. I had this happen to me before.

[detectiveconan16]

It's okay, since it's the 4th of July week. And the food deals are bazonkers.

[deszaras]

Just bring your receipt in and they should be able to do a price match, just explain the situation. I had this happen to me before.

Do you know what the time limit is? I looked it up and bought the tv on May 15th. So that's not a full 2 months.

[no_exit]

Do you know what the time limit is? I looked it up and bought the tv on May 15th. So that's not a full 2 months.
The limit is 30 days unless you are a Silver member, then you have 45 days.

[deszaras]

The limit is 30 days unless you are a Silver member, then you have 45 days.

Thanks. I'll see if I can get them do it anyway. It can't hurt.

[Noogums]

Hey idk if any of you read this a while ago but there was supposed to be a new sku for a best buy "special edition" ps3 (http://www.joystiq.com/2009/05/26/best-buy-to-receive-new-80gb-ps3-sku-after-e3-will-cost-399/)

lol this wall-e+LBP bundle is it. dang.
(same item numbers)

[BWS1982]

That's normal Fight Night 4 price (MSRP), probably in the ad because it's a new release.

[wulfsolaris]

I just bought an 80g ps3 from Best Buy last week. Is there any way I can take my receipt in and have them give me the items that were included in this bundle? Or do I have to wrap the whole thing up and take it back?

[digitalturtle]

It's not just the meh deals that get me it's the overall meh releases as well. FN4 I was beyond hyped on, played the demo then realized I liked the way FN3 played a lot better.


Still holding tight on my zero consumption goal for the summer.

[reddjoey]

There is a coupon on RewardZone Gamers Club for $10 gc if you pickup FNR4.

[deszaras]

I'm starting to seriously consider the PS3 bundle with LBP and Wall-E.

Anything on sale as far as 1080p 30"-40" LCD TVs?

I bought this 40" LCD a few weeks ago for $550 before tax. It's $499 now. Excellent for the price, and the step up from 1080i (the TV is 1080p; I just have a 360 w/o HDMI) on my old rear projection TV to this is unbelievable.
