Went to BB and saw a counter full of games this is what I saw(remembered)

xbox Halo 2 promo pack $4.99
xbox TS2- $9.99
xbox Voodoo Vince-$9.99
xbox MTG battlegrounds-$19.99
xbox and ps2 XIII-$19.99

thats all I could remember but there were many games for other consoles as well. I asked the clerk how long the sale would last she said "while supplies last". but I think its just for this week

Voodoo Vince for less than 40 bucks is a STEAL! IMO

I just bought the halo 2 pack for 9.99 :roll: it comes with a decent S controller, and a demo disc, +a book full of expired coupons.

I would love to get TS2 and VV for $10 each. I was just at my BB this weekend and am pretty sure they didn't have either game in stock though.

My Best Buy had TS2-XB, but it was still $19.99 at checkout. :( Maybe I should just giftcard it and get it for $15 anyway. :P

Can anyone else confirm these? I was just at my local BB this weekend and I checked on a couple of these - Voodoo Vince was $19.99 and Magic was $29.99. I'd grab Voodoo for $9.99 in a heartbeat, and I'd seriously consider Magic for $15 (using a GGC). ;)

Ehh, you're kidding right? Some people say I'm gullible but I don't know whether to believe you or not. I must be gullible. :D

I bought VV for $39.99 and thought it was a good deal till I got to the end. Ugh. The ending sequences kinda killed the game from getting anything above a 8.1 or 8.2 in my book. But for $20 or less It's a steal, and I would pay $29.99 for it after a second glance.

Best Buy in Princeton, NJ negativo. Did find Star Wars/Tetris combo for $69.99. It's a steal folks!

I got my Star Wars/Tetris combo for free. It's funny how when the box says "Promotional Offer Not For Resale" you can sometimes fool anyone. I got the Zelda pack in free the same way. No, I didn't steal either one, I took them to the register and simply said they were promotional items, paid for something cheap and got both holiay pack ins for free.

How did you get them for free? If they ring up something how would they give it away?

Either I'm not understanding your story, or you and I have different definitions of "steal."

I could be wrong but wasn't a price drop for voodoo vince announced along with the xbox console price drop. If I remember correctly, Voodoo Vince along with grabbed by the gouhlies are dropping to $19.99 each, which is $15 after the GGC. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Well, checked my BB out of curiosity (and since it's just across the street from my apt. ;)) and these deals were not in place. VV was $20, and Magic The Gathering was $30. Oh well, the trip wasn't a total loss - I picked up the 3 Muppet movies for $20. :)

I got Outlaw Volleyball for $9.99. It was part of the red dot deals.
They also had tons of TMNT for XBox with the red dots, but I didn't check price. If anyone gets TMNT for $10 let me know, as $10 is pretty much the magic number for me buying any game with atleast a 69% average ;)

dude, pittsburgh was totally in the right. to hell with them. it clearly says on tha package that it is not for resale, so they are, on a corporate level, commiting a crime to sell it. if they give it away, well, that's the way it's supposed to be. it just so happens they have separated the item from the pack in. btw, even free i don't think i would bother with that combo pack though.
he didn't steal anything or fool anyone. it should ring up a penny at most so they can do inventory on it.
