Is this B&M, or can you get it online, or both?

TheRock88
10-08-2004, 12:44 PM
I'm guessing that it's B&M only. Doesnt say anywhere on the ad where you can get it online.

I thought it was 3 for 40. That's at least what the other thread says.

That's in the LA area. Up here in the bay area, it says that it's 3 for 30. Fry's always has different prices in different regions, not like a big company like BB or CC where they have the same price everywhere.

omg, yes! This is so sweet! I was already going to go there thinking it was 3 for 40 but now the deal just got sweeter!

I knew about the different regions thing, but since i'm here in Sin Cuty, they tend to do a mix of all of the ads it seems, so I was just wondering which one they would go with.

Not ture, I believe they have one in Atlanta, and I'm not sure, but I think they have one also in Pennsylvania.

Hmm, you are right. The one in Atlanta is a new one then.

Here are the phone numbers of all the Fry's:

Requiem

then add F-zero to the list! I didnt know it was part of the deal.

I'm afraid these games will go very quickly, as everyone always reads the Fry's ads in newspapers.

The sale is only for today. If you go tomorrow, they wont have this going on.

She should call you a cheapassgamer nerd, since you're waiting until this stuff goes on sale. Remind her to get it right and that's more money you can spend on her. :lol:

im glad we dont have one here i would of walked out with over 200 bucks in games.

MasterSun1
10-08-2004, 07:14 PM
Even if it's $40 for the majority of users here, it's still a great deal. I plan on getting Bubble Bobble GBA, Gungrave OD PS2, and Morrowind GOTY XBOX, since I have most of those other great Nintendo titles already.

r those all the gc games on sale?

10-08-2004, 09:29 PM
damn cuz even though i dont own a GC, that list is littered with games i would eventually like to get (when i buy the system)

Mospeada_21
10-08-2004, 09:47 PM
just called the Hamilton store off highway 17, Conflict Desert Storm II: Back to Baghdad is not part of the deal. Still $49.99, even though Best Buy clearanced it out many months ago at $9.99.

i'd go, but already have most of the GC titles in my collection. i'm starting to get tired of buying so many games. (must be a side-effect) :(

In the Oregon store, there isn't anything that says the sale is just today only. The prices are good until this Tuesday, so I'm going to try and head out this weekend. A few of those games I've been wanting. Except it's 3 for $40 here.

MasterSun1

I didn't see Morrowind GOTY at the Wilsonville, Oregon one, which is a game I really wanted. I instead got Bubble Bobble, Gungrave OD, and ESPN NBA 2K5.

The Morrowing GOTY edition isn't part of the sale. I went today and that store only has the Platinum Hits version on sale.
