Fry's Ads 1/28-2/1 (4 cities...updated daily)

[fidodido]

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.

Thanks!!

Might have to grab Otogi later today.

But hey... either way is fine with me. :twisted:

[redline]

Fidodido, Otogi 2 is $14.99 in the DFW area.

[fidodido]

Fidodido, Otogi 2 is $14.99 in the DFW area.

Thanks for the correction. But I doublechecked the online ad and Star-Telegram has it listed at $19.99. Did you see the pricing in the Morning News?

Yep, in the Dallas Morning News Fry's ad it's $14.99. They also have the PS2 Eye Toy Antigrav for $49.99, I don't think you listed that one.

[judyjudyjudy]

Good price for RE4

[hiccupleftovers]

Alright!! These are some great deals this week. Otogi 2, Star Wars KOTOR 2 (I think I'll still wait on this one though till it is 29.99 or less at my BB, so I can GGC it), and MK: Deception. ONly one question fido, is that the SE of MK: Deception or just the regular version?

And always, thanks!:D

*cough* Or get it from me and my tradelist. =)

Anyways, great post as usual Fido. Some good deals finally. RE4, if I hadn't done the B2G1 at gamestop I'd be all over this.

[Professor Oreo]

Plenty of good deals this week. Thanks Fido!!!

[Acid Indigestion]

Thanks for the listings fido.

I'm going to fry's for the RE4 deal since last time fry's had it on sale it was sold out.

I'm also considering MGS3. Could anyone who owns it give me their opinion on the game?

[themoor666]

Thanks for the listings fido.

I'm also considering MGS3. Could anyone who owns it give me their opinion on the game?

IMO, the best single player experience of the year. The story is wonderful and the gameplay itself is damn fun. Takes about 20 hours too so that's a plus compared to the last games. Highly recommended!

[fidodido]

is that the SE of MK: Deception or just the regular version?

From the picture, it appears to be the regular version only.

[TheRock88]

Nice price on Otogi 2 and the Dawn of the Dead/Shaun of the Dead pack. Thanks for posting them Fido.

[notfromtexas]

Is the Xenosaga pre-order disc an actual pre-order deal, or is it allowing you to buy the disc alone?

[tenzor]

Is the Xenosaga pre-order disc an actual pre-order deal, or is it allowing you to buy the disc alone?

I think you just put $10.00 down, and they give you the disc and you get a pre order as well. Anyway I think I am going to pick up Otogi 2 today thanks for the post fidodido

[Oxybeles]

Is the Xenosaga pre-order disc an actual pre-order deal, or is it allowing you to buy the disc alone?

You can buy the disc alone and/or utilize the receipt to pick-up Xenosaga 2 when it is released and receive $9.99 off the price at that time.

[AzianAsspicker]

hey any chance matrix ultimate collection is 44.99 again?

[JunkyardGod]

OTOGI 2!!!!

just in time. i was doin a search on the site for deals, and didn't want to Amazon it. THANKS fidodido!

Does that mean you could pay the 9.99 get the dvd, then when it comes out and is on sale for 39.99 you could get it for 29.99?

[valleyvampiress]

$34.99
Resident Evil 4

!!! They'll most likely be outta stock by the time I get there, but it's worth a try.

[valleyvampiress]

btw, what kinda game is otogi 2?

[tenzor]

hey any chance matrix ultimate collection is 44.99 again?

I think it went back to regular price, just wait a few more weeks it will prob end up going on sale again.

Certainly the plan I have!

[TheRock88]

Hey fido, dont know if you forgot it or something but I checked in the San Jose paper (Mercury News) and they had King of the Fighters Maximum Impact for $19.99.

[DemonAlcohol]

btw, what kinda game is otogi 2?

Basically it's a stylistic hack n slash. I have the first one and played the demo for Otogi 2. The graphics and effects are really cool, it's a great looking game. But most of the time your running around doing combos on enemies and destroying trees and buildings. Fun game though, worth $20 but not any more than that.

[Professor Oreo]

Hey fido, dont know if you forgot it or something but I checked in the San Jose paper (Mercury News) and they had King of the Fighters Maximum Impact for $19.99.

I can confirm this as I saw it in-store at the Fry's in Burbank CA. It's the 2disc Collector's Edition even.

Thanks for posting all of these great Fry's deals every week Fido! :D

[fidodido]

Yep, in the Dallas Morning News Fry's ad it's $14.99. They also have the PS2 Eye Toy Antigrav for $49.99, I don't think you listed that one.I might be picking up Otogi 2 for $15. Looks good. :)

Thanks fidodido.

[Redeema]

in case anyon cares, I was at the Fry's in San Jose on Brokaw and they sold out of RE4, so I just went down to Circuit City and had a manager friend price adjust to them. So, try the other Fry's stores instead :)

P.S. when trying to get a price match, never tell them the other place doesn't have it in stock always tell them you haven't tried yet because you'd rather not travel the extra distance or that you were nearby their store so you decided to stop in, you're more likely to get sympathy and the price match.

[themoor666]

so did anyone meet the playmates?

[rocksolidaudio]

sorry to go off-topic a bit, but i didn't want to make a whole new thread for this; basically, i'm going to the IL Fry's tomorrow for the first time, and i want to know any things i should be aware of (trade-in deals, trade-in fodder, unique policies, anything). so, any recommendations on what to look out for would be great. thanks.

[godhatesjustyou]

i only saw 1 playmate, and man, was she old.

You can't trade stuff in... unless you're talking about returns. It's a retail chain that sells electronics, software, appliances, etc. like Best Buy or CC.

I hate to point this out, but Winning Eleven is scheduled for WEDS release. ;) I do put the complete description and comments in the main post, but not the updates. I keep the updates simplified to save effort. It also means that the pricing will probably be good until Thurs. as well.

[mst3k_stud]

man, i was hoping for a sealab season 2 and brak show deal :(

[nikkai]

Oh, haha. I didn't read the first page. Was only looking at the Sunday news paper here and it didn't say Wednesday release on it. Or maybe I just browsed over it too quickly. =)
