Here's the video game listings from the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW), Los Angeles/Orange County (LA), San Jose/Silicon Valley (SJ), and Washington state (WA) 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, Sacramento, Austin, Houston, NV, AZ, 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 Seattle 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 four (DFW, LA, SJ, and WA) ads.

Ad updates:
DFW, LA, WA: Fri-Mon, Weds
SJ: Everyday

Welcome back fidodido! Nice deal on Paper Mario 2, do you know if it will also be in this weekend's ads so I can pick it up over the weekend?

For some reason, I was under the impression that KUF would retail for $29.99.

As always...where's my Fry's?

When do you think Fry's will have the new, smaller PS2's in stock?

I would say the end of this week or early next week for most.

However, the Sacramento Fry's told me "any day now" over the phone, and they usually get stuff when they say they will -sometimes even earlier.

I believe Outpost.com had KUF for 26.99 maybe a month ago (one of their infamous "grab it while you can at a cheap price" deals). That might be why you think the game retails for 30 (eb has it retailing for 40)

If only i had a GameCube (and a Fry's) i'd be all over that Paper Mario deal

If anyone stops by the Austin store or sees the ad, could they confirm or disprove whether it has Paper Mario for that price? Often Austin has the same deals, but not always.

Doesn't frys have a price match policy? Why not print out the SJ Ad and try to see if they price match. Worth a shot, right?

For anyone who has been wondering, the Austin store does indeed have Paper Mario and KUF for those prices, but, as is common for the Austin store, it was not marked on the shelf. The ad in the front of the store has the price, and they ring up correctly, but the shelf lists full price.

Looked to be only one other copy of Paper Mario left.
