Your mileage may Vary. In reference to deals which may not be happening at your store. There is a thread running now that has all the terms explained for noobies.

your mileage may vary, as in not all stores will have this deal. i think someone did create a thread here for abreviations commonly used on the site. u should check that out.

You know, there really ought to be a glossary on this site for these abbreviations.

YMMV= Your Milage May Vary
TRU= Toys R Us
B&M= Brick and Mortar (physical store)

and all the sort...

Maybe it would help cause heck, I dindn't realize what TRU was until last month and I have been here since December.

it's funny how YMMV and B&M still make little sense in their real terms. who the hell made up this shit anyway?

You ought to know by now with these numbnuts, if they have to search, read a different forum, or otherwise seek their information in any other way than "New Topic" they're totally dumbfounded.

Nah, I was being serious. I don' do the sarcasm thing because I see enough of that crap on GAMEFAQS.

Damn, I didn't even realize the abbreviations were in the FAQ. I didn't look at it because I thought it was just FAQ on how to use the board.

wow, I almost took offense to that. . . until I realized you were making a joke (didn't see the correlation to the acronym). or I thought I was being ostracized for liking Vandal Hearts.

whew.
