Here's the entertainment software 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

Thanks fidodido again. Some not too bad deals. I was really hoping though for a Killzone deal like 39.99. Thanks again. I love their 3 for 40 sale. I missed some stuff from the last one that I wanted since I ddin't have enough money.

no halo 2 stuff - interesting

killzone is fairly weak by the way imo (played about 20% of it before i got bored) - rent instead of buy

yeah I think I am going to hold off on killzone. There are too many other games I want this month, and I won't have time to play them all. I will pick killzone up when it becomes a greatest hits.

If anyone goes there today, can you tell me if they have Jak 3 for PS2 in stock yet, and the price? It takes forever to get assistance over the phone, and more often than not, the reps don't have accurate info. A pair of eyes would save me about an hour of driving time tonight.

I don't imagine that Fry's will discount Jak 3's price (does it retail for 39.99?), but it never hurts to ask!
