Here's the entertainment software listings from the Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW), Houston (HOU), Chicago (IL), 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. - Austin, Sacramento, San Diego, AZ, GA, IN, NV, OR), but it only appeared in the SJ ad. 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 six (DFW, HOU, IL, LA, SJ, and WA) ads.

Thanks Fido, I'm going to have to look into Cold Winter for $15. I don't really play too any FPS games but I liked the demo.

Thanks fido. Cold Winter for $15 might make me actually bite for it. Pretty good price and it's the just about the same price I paid for XIII when they had it on sale. World Championship Poker for DS for $19.99 isn't bad either but I'll wait for it to be $15 or lower. And Kirby still holds at $29.99. I guess it won't budge. Has anyone ever tried to see if Fry's would accept the GGC?

I'm about to drive to Fry's (it's close by). Hopefully World Series of Poker *is* $19.99. I'll report back shortly.

I can confirm all of the software deals in Las Vegas. Glad to see World Championship Poker down to $19.99. The local Fry's is making a major Poker push. Chips, sets, items, books, etc. All are out front and easy to see.

Hey hiccupleftovers, I managed to price match TUESDAY'S Fry's ad at my local Circuit City yesterday. This was even though the ad said "1 Day Only". Circuit City's sale price on Kirby was $29.99, and the cashier price matched the (now expired) Fry's ad and I got Kirby DS for $24.99. Of course what I did was sightly "morally questionable". Not to mention the fact that I had just priced matched Yoshi Topsy-Turvy for $22.99 at the nearby Best Buy with MONDAY'S old Fry's ad. I just prayed that the sales clerks wouldn't notice the fine print. =)

The drop for Cold Winter is the fastest drop I've seen. Hasn't it been out just a month?

Don't laugh, but Scrabble Blast! is a great deal for $10. I bought it for twice that when it came out a month or two ago and still play it. Great word puzzle title. You can try an online version here:

I'm having lots of fun playing the demo. Then again I'm a big fan of multiplayer games, single player stuff bores me to death these days.
