That's so funny; I though about Fido Dido yesterday for about the first time in 10 years.

[SteveMcQ]

fidodido...do they make any advanced announcements about other store openings in their ads? I saw a huge Fry's location on the far north side of town and I want to know when it's going to open up. It's a long drive up there and the lot's always empty, so I was hoping the other Fry ads would have something. This is the north Indy location, btw.

[jacobv]

All three Houston area stores have the Nintendo DS priced at $99.99 today only for the Grand Opening! I went to the Fry's in Webster and they had TONS in stock.


I jumped on it.

Cool. Now you'll be able to play all 4 games it has. Enjoy.

[jacobv]

Haha yes, but I never owned a GBA SP so I have plenty of older games to play, correct?

[hiccupleftovers]

This is probably the fifth or sicth week I haven't really seen anything super specatacular at Fry's. Man, they really need to put out some cheap deals other than for new releases (which is also good mind you). Oh well. Thanks again fido.

[nakanenui]

I sure wish Frys would knock the price of disgaea down from 49.98. I cant find any store that has it cheap... anyone have ideas.

[Requiem]

The $37 for Chaos Theory is nice if you haven't picked it up yet. I'm surprised they made it so low for a brand new game.

[nikkai]

Spy Kids! Yes!




=P

[Celsius]

Haha yes, but I never owned a GBA SP so I have plenty of older games to play, correct?

Correct! Getting it for $100 now is a fantastic deal! If not now then for upcoming games. I currently recommend Yoshi Touch & Go, Feel the Magic: XY:XX, Warioware: Touched!, and Super Mario 64 DS.

Be sure to pick up Polarium on April 17.

You can also look foward to: Final Fantasy III, The Legend of Zelda: The Four Swords, Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles, Castlevania, Kirby: Cavas Curse, Meteos, Pokemon Diamond (Pearl), Animal Crossing DS, Mario Kart DS, Sonic the Hedgehog, Nintendogs, Katamari Damacy DS, and Viewtiful Joe DS.

There will be even more announcements at E3!

[msdmoney]

Damn, nice price for Half Life 2 in Houston, wish other Fry's had it for that. Good price for Seinfeld too, but I already have it.

[RegularX]

maybe fry's is building up for something great? they're sales lately haven't been that hot (tho some in store stuff like MGS3 for $30 and Halo 2 for $36 have been sweet...which i would have posted here except i saw them on the last day they were on sale around 8 at night)...

but, as always thanks for the update.

[hiccupleftovers]

I sure wish Frys would knock the price of disgaea down from 49.98. I cant find any store that has it cheap... anyone have ideas.

Me too since that the only one of the Nippon Ichi three that I'm missing. Got La Pucelle for 19.99 at Target last year when they were the only ones to drop the price of it back then, and recently picked up the SE of Phantom Brave. Every store I have checked has Disgaea for 49.99.

[LinkinPrime]

Anyone ever have any luck pricematching Fry's to other stores when they have their Low Price guarantee arrow pointing at the Price on the next game. Example of todays paper:

--------------------------------
SPC:CT | DBZ:SAGAS
|
====> | 36.99
Low price
-------------------------------

I PMed their ad not too long ago when Paper Mario 2 came out. Wasn't going to be able to get out to the Fry's that weekend, but had their ad and showed it to BB and the PMed it fine, just no GGC like I wanted.
