Wisconsin's Official CAG Deals, News & Discussion Thread

[xplocvo]

Picked up Lips for $24.98 at the Sun Prairie Target today. Still 3 left when I left.

I went there this morning and these were still marked at $34.98.

[psunami]

I went there this morning and these were still marked at $34.98.

They were marked that that price, but rang up at $24.98. I just took one over to the scanners to check and make sure.

Sorry for forgetting to mention that.

Oh ok. Maybe I'll swing by tomorrow morning and get one. I wonder if anything else is ringing up for less. I've got my eye on the Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe in the glass case once it drops some more.

[psunami]

Yeah. I didn't have a chance to check on any other titles.

I was with my kids and a 4 and 2 year old make life pretty difficult for a CAG sometimes.

[xplocvo]

I hear you there. Fortunately the Targets are located between my daycare and the office, so I can stop without the kids. :)

I picked up Lips at SP this morning, 2 copies left now. I didn't have anyone pull the MK vs DC out of the case and scan the price on it. The only employee around at the time was on a walkie talkie going on about dusting for prints, sounded like they were robbed this morning.

[bug_nuts]

at target u dont have to have them pull the games out if there is a scanner with numbers on the side. on the top of the red sticker is a number that will be laid out like XXX-XX-XXXX i just type it into my phone.... go to a scanner and type it in!

[f4t4lfury]

Was in the Onalaska Target today and saw Lips (360) w/ 2 microphones on clearance endcap for $25.

Also, Pawn America in Onalaska has PS2 Slim for $42 ($60 w/ 30% off sale).

[psunami]

There are still two copies of Lips bundle at the Target in Sun Prairie for $24.98 as well.

[bug_nuts]

is lips any good? it seems like alot of people want it.. but is it actually any cool?!

[SEH]

Anyone know if either the Target in Racine or Oak Creek has some copies of Smackdown 09, Tiger Woods 09, or Mirrors Edge on clearance? I'll probably run to check them out tomorrow, but I'd appreciate it if someone could possibly save me a trip.

[psunami]

I'm still waiting to try out Lips. Honestly, I bought it for the two wireless mics so that I can use them when the Rock Band 2 patch eventually comes out.

[dimeadz]

I bought Lips when it came out. It was pretty fun. It is different than just singing for Rockband. You need to shake the mic and get in beat to get the little awards for the song. You can sing into both and shake them to get all the awards for both players. I believe that is an achievement.

On another note.(no pun intended) Has anyone seen the PSN cards for 17 and 40 dollars at Walmart? I checked Madison Janesville and Beloit at different times.

[psunami]

I checked at least 3 of the local Walmarts (West, Sun Prairie, and Watertown) and didn't see the discounted PSN cards. Just normal prices.

[Derrick1979]

Hey do you know anyone interested in any PS2 games and a PS2 memory Card.... its the last of my PS2 collection and im looking to dump it..

Radiata Stories and Rogue Galaxy are both sealed as well as the Official Sony Memory card....

Oh and BTW yes it is good to have more people from WI here but also bad because its more competition and there are a buttload of lurkers and such already in the Milwaukee area ha ha

[SEH]

Stopped a the Oak Creek Target today. I was able to snag a copy of Smackdown 09 for $12.48. It was the last one they had. I didn't see any other clearance games either. I looked all over the electronics department and found nothing. Maybe I'll run to the Racine Target tomorrow.

Where roughly are you at in the Milwaukee Area ? LEts just say im not far from Mayfair Mall.

[bug_nuts]

I'm on the east side... But I drive everywhere!! Lol but not Mayfair too often actually...

[kevin82485]

Best Buy near Steven's Point has some really nice deals on games. Fairly recent titles (including collector's editions) for $25.99...slightly older titles for $10.99. I got SFIV Collector's Edition and Saint's Row 2 CE for $25.99 each, and Grid for $10.99.

yeah we need to make sure we all get a quality shot at getting the games when theres a deal... i will easily be willing to trade games or even pick up said games from anyone who can find some crazy clearance deals

Doubt my BB will have Grid of that price, but i'll stop and have a look. TIA!

[Mr Dude65]

Hey, lets see some more Wisconsin deals!

[xycury]

House of the Dead Overkill for $35 at West side Target Madison.

lame i know since ECA and amazon can get cheaper...

But they had like 10+ copies all red tagged clearence....

They could drop further if they stayed.

I'll be happy to pick one up for 20... if it drops that low...

TIV anywhere is like $15...

[Mr Dude65]

Is that all that they had?

[psunami]

They had Fear 2 for 50% off. A few copies of Butcher Bay for 50% off. Guitar Hero 3.

Most of the stuff that has been around for a while.

End War for the PS3 for $44.98 as well. I might take a flier on that at 75% off, just for the headset. Heard the game wasn't all that great.

[Mr Dude65]

sweet, I am gonna go check it out on Friday. Hopefully they still have some stuff!

[dimeadz]

I heard the headset isn't that great either.

[dimeadz]

Anyone seen a deal on Hot shots Golf Out of Bounds for PS3?

[psunami]

I haven't seen Hot Shots around the Madison area.

Has anyone seen L4D at Target anywhere?

I've been looking locally, but haven't seen one.

[xycury]

360?

Target west had the GotY edition for... I think 35, could be less, maybe 30.

[psunami]

Yeah, I'm just keeping an eye out for the 360 version that is on clearance. (Non-GOTY)

No real urge to pick it up... other than the fact that it is cheap.

[Nameless600]

The Movie Gallery in Beaver Dam, WI is going out of business, was just announced today. All PS3 and 360 games were shipped back to corp. as well as most of the Wii games. Currently everything is 20% off marked price (Ps2/xbox/GC games were marked at 5-15 dollars), but according to the front counter lady the prices are going to drop fast. The DVD's are 9.99 for older titles, and 15 for newer titles (without the 20% off). as well as DVD cases for $ .10 each, which was pretty nice, i picked up 140, which left about a 100 left (sorry guys :-p). I would def. check it out if your in the neighbor hood this next week or two. PM me if you would like the address or additional information.

P.S. They will be open until July 18th, as of then the doors will be closed, all sales are final and about 98% of the inventory is used.

Happy Hunting :),

[dimeadz]

I saw GH Legends of Rock w/guitar for ps3 at Shopko for 26.99.

[psunami]

Is it just me, or you really missing out on not having a Shopko insider like we had here on the forums in the past.

[dimeadz]

Thats what their crappy sale is, really it is 29.99. No idea why it is 3.00 off.

[psunami]

Yeah, that is odd.

I just miss having... Krunk, I believe his name is, as a person keeping track of the drops at Shopko. They had some great deals there. Their clearance games would get down to 90% off.

[dimeadz]

Finally found Hot shots golf, but i had to travel to rockford to get it at 19.99.

[bug_nuts]

anyone in milwaukee i found hot shots golf at the ghetto ass walmart on fdl and capital for $20 they had about 6

[Derrick1979]

[bug_nuts]

Ha ha I hope you washed your hands after you left there :applause:

they also had that ps3 hancock blu-ray / remote combo.... it was in teh same glass lockup as the hot shots golf.... i asked to see it so she moves the glass door the other way i reach for the game... and she screams "DONT REACH INTO THE CASE SIR".......... i was like wtf..... are you kidding me?! that is by far one of those walmarts that make u question humanity....... a complete craphole..... but its walmart... the risk one takes lol

cheers
bug_nuts

[BudzMcGee]

I have no idea on Wii prices for things, but the GoodWill on Capital (by walmart near the east side in Milwaukee) had Guitar Hero World Tour bundle for Wii for I want to say $79. The Big Lots accross the street had the 360 version for $130. Honestly have no idea if either are worth it, I don't play those games.

[xplocvo]

House of the Dead Overkill is $12.48 at Sun Prairie Target. They had 4 more copies left this morning.

[SEH]

I know what you mean. The Walmart here in Racine really makes me question society. All of their employees appear to be the dumbest people set on this earth.

[mavruss]

FYI, Blockbuster on 124th and Capital (Brookfield) is doing the buy1 get 1 free deal on games.
I got Mercs 2 for the PS3 and Ninja Gaiden for the DS for $10.00

[seanw]

FWIW, East Madison Best Buy has a number of the Best Buy titles that are listed at $29 but ring up at $19, plus the B2G1 sale. I got Chrono Trigger, Henry Hatsworth and Broken Sword for $40. (The website didn't say they had Hatsworth, but in fact they had multiple copies; I left at least 2 copies of all those games on the shelf.) They also have Moon for $20.

[psunami]

Sean... long time no see.

I picked up 3 titles at the East store the other day as well.

Wanted to pick up Ninja Gaiden for the DS, but it's still ringing up at $20 here.

[Krunks]

fear not wisconsinites, im still here, and will keep everyone informed of any good clearance drops, i started doing the price changes again a couple weeks ago, but nothing real good has come up, just a bunch of pc and regular xbox games

[psunami]

You da man, Krunks.

Seriously, every time I drive by Shopko I think of the work you've done here.

Well, that and the Ryan Braun picture... that man is a beast.

[deletion]

best buy green bay has guitar hero III bundles for 19.99

[Musashi]

(The website didn't say they had Hatsworth, but in fact they had multiple copies; I left at least 2 copies of all those games on the shelf.) They also have Moon for $20.

What a coincidence, I made the same exact purchase at the Racine Best Buy and left the same number of each on the shelf. I was looking through the racks to see if there were any titles I wanted and I noticed all 3 of those had recently gotten new price stickers and were now all $19.99. I had my eye on all 3 and the price drop sealed the deal. I wanted AOE Mythologies too and was hoping when my sister went she would pick it up if they needed a 3rd title. She told me I was out of luck, my oldest nephew decided to get it for himself.

[shadowkast]

Target in lake geneva hasn't had a clearance section in over a month. WTH!?!? Forgot about this thread and wanted to check in

[dkreegz515]

K-mart in Burlington has Rockband1 Drums for 15

[seanw]

I went to the Movie Gallery in Stoughton in re the $5 sale -- of the three clerks, only the manager knew about it and hadn't thought it started yet. While I browsed, they confirmed that the code was a go, but the only think I wanted to pick up was a DS game. They couldn't quite get the code to work, and then noticed that the DS wasn't on the list of approved platforms. Because we'd already started this transaction, they overrode it for me, which was v. nice. They have a reasonable PS2/3 and XBOX/360 selection.

Went to Oregon and they didn't know about it. I suggested they call Stoughton for the code, and the clerk reported back that the Stoughton store said that the only area stores participating in the sales were Stoughton and Richland (Center?). If anyone hears otherwise, let me know.

I called the Hollywood Video on Monona Drive in Madison, and the sale is going on there. I doubt I'm going to be able to make it there anytime soon. Unless someone tells me they have extra copies of Far Cry 2, Force Unleashed, or Blue Dragon, then I might have to make the trip.

[kevin82485]

I had to call 3 movie galleries in the Wisc Dells area to find 1 that was actually doing the $5 games deal. Picked up NBA Homecourt, Skate, Ninja Gaiden 2, GRAW 2, and Mercenaries 2

[Mr Dude65]

If anyone can pick me up TFU, Ill pay $8 for it.

[SEH]

If anyone is interested in the GS B2G1 deal, the store in Regency Mall here in Racine had an excellent PS3 selection when I went in this morning. FNR4, Prototype, Bigs 2, Tiger Woods 10, just a great selection of newer used games.

Both GS's here though had somewhat slim pickins for the 360 though. I grabbed the only copies of Prototype and Tiger Woods 10. Neither had NCAA 10 or Bigs 2 though. I did however see one copy of FNR4 at the Regency Point GS for the 360.

[deletion]

I was there around noon on Friday. Have not been in that store for like a year went up to Sheboygan cause I wanted to check their Gamestop for used games for the b2g1 sale. The only other things I saw there was Hot Shots Golf, Saints row 2 collectors edition and Brother in Arms collectors edition all for the PS3 not sure on price on any of them.

[deletion]

thanks static puff. i feel better now. i probably would not have picked up the PS3 versions of saints row or brothers in arms. would of if they were 360.

[Derrick1979]

I tell you I would like to find out who are the hoarders around SE WI because unless you happen to stumble on a deal around here everything is going if you blink.

[Goodwill Hunter]

Heads up for Milwaukee-area 360 owners - the New Berlin Goodwill had 4 sealed copies of Xbox360 Dragonball Z Burst Limit for $9.99...it now has 3 :D ...good luck!

[mcelfour]

West side Madison Target had nerf N-Strike blasters (no game) for $3.74, I grabbed one of those. They're in one of the toy isles.

I also saw Star Wars TFU PS2 for $13.98, I think; three left. They had quite a bit of new clearance. I can't remember what all there was, but I'll try to remember specific items if anyone is really looking for something.

Oh, I do remember Kim Possible (or some such) on GBA. They had like forty of those.

[getvioletic]

Target in Fitchburg has a few copies of MadWorld for 20.98.

[Mr Dude65]

Does that target have any 360 games?

[mcelfour]

Does that target have any 360 games?

Yeah, a whole case full behind the glass!:bouncy:

Oh, you mean clearance....I think so, but I didn't check any prices, what with me having no xbox 360 and all.

[xycury]

Target in Fitchburg has a few copies of MadWorld for 20.98.

bout time those finally dropped.

maybe wait a bit more and they could be hovering around .... what's the next number 17 or 16? or do they go to 14.98?

That would be a better price.

[psunami]

14.98 would be the next price.

Personally, I'm waiting on Motorstorm Pacific Rift to hit $14.98. There are a few copies on the West Side and in Fitchburg.

I do wonder how many of you I've seen walking by the clearance sections over the last few months. heh.

Hopefully I can grab a copy before it's gone. I think there were 3 left last time I looked.

West Side Target had that one as well.

[Mr Dude65]

one left that I saw. Rang at $29.98.

[psunami]

Still rang at $29.98 today as well.

Might try the West Side store at lunch time.

[perdition(troy]

you dirty madison cag's

[heybtbm]

I picked up Riddick (360) for $14.98 at Target (Madison - Westside) this weekend. They still had 4-5 left as of Sunday. They also had 1 HAWX (360) for the same price, but I left it there. These were definitely $29.xx a few days before.

[psunami]

Bugger. I should have stopped there yesterday.

Hope they still have a few more.

[psunami]

Riddick and HAWX are cleared out at the West Side Target now. Bummer.

[BudzMcGee]

Best Buy in Lake Geneva had a good clearance going, better than all the other ones I've seen. The way it worked was if you got one game on clearance you got 30% off, two games got 40% off each game, and 3 games equaled 50% off each game. The best buy at... best buy.... was the xbox 360 controller with viva pinata combo pack. Picked up that with brothers in arms and avatar for a total of $43. They had several collectors editions of street fighter 4 and end war as well. Games were in 3 spots, at front of game section, on back game wall and up by register. This was a couple of days ago so good luck cag's!

[BudzMcGee]

also, it didn't seem to matter game prices, aka, if you got the end war bundle priced at 90 and two games priced at 10, you got 50% off each individual game.

[psunami]

Target in Fitchburg dumped a whole lot of clearance games on the shelf this week. Lots of 30% off stuff. Patapon 2 for the PSP, Riddick for the PS3, a few others... none than I can remember at the moment though.

[Goodwill Hunter]

Credit to the OP in the video game forum for pointing out a bunch of games at 50% off at the Brookfiield Best Buy. Picked up a Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway CE for $19.99 and Scene-it 2 unbundled for $9.99, both for the 360. There's still a bunch of other titles for the 360, PS3, Wii, and some for the PS2 and PSP.

[Mr Dude65]

Found Rock Band 2 SE for $75 at Walmart in Monroe for 360. THey had PS3 versions too. Also had drumsets for $19!!!!!!!!!!

[mavruss]

Best Buy at Mayfair is having a 50% sale on a lot of titles.

Dang. I'd pick it up for that price. Wonder if Madison stores will be anywhere near that.

[getvioletic]

If I remember correctly the Best Buy on the West side has it for around $24, not quite the $15 mark but still a reasonable deal. Also this was as of about 30 minutes ago I saw quite a few of them on the shelf.

[sigmano9]

any idea how long the mayfair sale is suppose to last?

[psunami]

Well, $24 with the $10 off coupon on Reward Zone would do it for me. I'll have to give that one a look tomorrow.

Thanks.

[mcelfour]

Does anyone know if and where I can find Hori DS lite screen protectors around Madison?

Apparently Targets had them at one point, but I don't know if they do currently. LMK if anybody has seen them around lately. Thanks!

[Derrick1979]

:bouncy:

[psunami]

Ended up with two copies of the Saints Row CE from West Madison Best Buy. (1 for trade)

The coupons on the reward zone site make it hard to pass up for 14 bucks.

Apparently Targets had them at one point, but I don't know if they do currently. LMK if anybody has seen them around lately. Thanks!


I think Fitchburg had some, but unsure if it was just a knockoff, with some styluses....

[xplocvo]

I got stuck at work so I didn't get a chance to go over to the West side, but I did stop at the East side Best Buy on the way home. Nothing much exciting there. They did not have either Saint's Row 2 CE or the Brothers in Arms CE for X360. They had a lot of 50% off titles but nothing I was interested in. They did have Hot Shots Golf for PS3 marked down to $30.

[heybtbm]

Target (Westside - Madison) hasn't marked down the bulk of their clearance titles in over a month. It's really strange. I even scanned a few games in disbelief, but of course...the clearance tags were accurate.

You also have to love the fact they still have 1 copy of Def Jam (something something...the fighting one) on clearance. This thing hit the clearance endcaps just after Christmas. Now THAT'S staying power. How did this slip through the cracks (besides the fact that no one wants it)?

[psunami]

I remember picking up a copy of Def Jam at Shopko almost 2 years ago.

The Sun Prairie Target has a few of Battlestation Pacific for the 360,(5 or 6 copies) but at $41.98 still.

They had a few Pacific Rift for $29.98 as well.

I noticed that the Fitchburg place hasn't done anything in a while.

I'd bet that the copies of Saints Row are still at the West Madison store. They're just sitting on a shelf with the other collectors editions and seem almost hidden from view... for whatever reason.

[heybtbm]

In case people are still looking for the CE Saints Row 2...there are 10+ copies left at Best Buy (Madison - West) for $26.xx. Not interested myself, but they're there on the top shelf in the 360 section.

[psunami]

Picked up the last Battlestation Pacific for $14.98 at the Sun Prairie Target today.

They still have some Pacific Rift copies there for $14.98 left.

I got the last Pacific Rift this morning, thanks for the heads up.

They have a few of the first Motorstorm for $7.48, as well as two copies of HAWX for 360 at $14.98.

[psunami]

I passed on HAWX. I don't know why. Looks like a decent flight game.. .but for some reason I just can't pick it up.

I have yet to meet a person that doesn't love that show. I can't wait for season 4.

[bsquared]

The Fitchburg target had a couple games on clearance that seemed new to me.
Dead Space (PS3) - 20
Rainbow Six Vegas (PS3) - 20
Frontlines (360) - 10
SoCom with the PS3 headset -30 (seems like a steal)

They had some others but these are just the one I noticed.

Hope someone gets some good deals.

[psunami]

Dang. I've been curious about Socom as I need another headset.

[xplocvo]

Stopped by Sun Prairie Target this morning and they had the following:

MadWorld (Wii) - $14.98
Dead Space (PS3) - $20.98
Tomb Raider Underworld (PS3) - $7.48
Spider-Man Web of Shadows (PS3) - $7.48

They had a few others like Bionic Commando and 50 Cent, but the prices were still high.

[perdition(troy]

anybody go to any midnight releases for batman?

man, would love to have tomb raider at that price. the targets in the milwaukee area always have shitty clearance. that or the good titles are cleaned out.

[psunami]

I was just out there a few hours ago and missed Spiderman and Tomb Raider. Don't know if they were there, just was in and out quick looking for Socom.

[xycury]

Good price on Madworld. Just a tad lower than the last coupon go around with edge.

[heybtbm]

Toys R Us in Madison had a few PS3 Slim's this afternoon. There were two left after I picked one up.

[psunami]

I grabbed the Tomb Raider at the Sun Prairie store last night.

Stopped by the East Madison store as well, but didn't really see much of interest there.

I saw a bunch of PS3 slims at the East Madison Best Buy last night though.

[Mufasa]

Anyone know of any sweet Shopko deals??

[psunami]

I don't think there have really been any Shopko deals in a while. Krunks will post them from time to time though.

[Mr Dude65]

Dude, went to see my brother in Peoria, IL, so I stopped by Target, and they had Cryostasis on clearance. I didn't even know that was released yet. Anybody see it in WI?

[Krunks]

shopko has ps3 slims in, not a deal, but just letting people know, also, theres some games on sale, but not that great, batman is $55 for 360, fight night 4 for ps3 $55 so nothing really that great, last "deal" i really remember was wario land shake it for $15 in april lol

No, but I gots it for free with my video card. Har har har.

[psunami]

There are still two copies of the collector's edition of Saints Row II for the PS3 at the West Madison Best Buy.

The price listed now is down to $19.99

[RoGo7]

Do Sears Grands follow the same discount route as regular Sears? Going out of town and wondering if I should hit a few up.

[Derrick1979]

for the most part yes sears grand follow the sale price drops as the other stores

[RoGo7]

Thanks! I'll take my chances then. I'll report back if I find anything.

[sigmano9]

if anyone is looking for a $19.99 valkyria chronicles, the walmart on w. hope ave. in milwaukee has 2 copies left

[psunami]

Just to inject a bit more life into this thread....

Saw the Collector's Edition of WWE Smackdown 2009 for the PS3 for $29.99 at the West Madison Best Buy today.

They still had a few copies of the collector's edition of Saint's Row 2 for the PS3 for $19.99 and the 360 version for $20.49.

They just can't seem to shake those things.

[Derrick1979]

They just can't seem to shake those things.

I would snag up on one for $20 but around Milwaukee they are gone ;)

[psunami]

They just can't seem to shake those things.

You'd think they were hidden... or the game is absolutely awful based on how long they've been sitting around.

[Derrick1979]

I actually had more fun with it then GTAIV when I had it on my PS3 now that I sold my PS3 I would like to get it for the 360 and beat it ha ha.. you have to remember the game is what a year or so old now so people move on and collectors edition or not some people will keep passing on it.

BTW speaking on the Gamecrazy closings the Pewaukee and Milwaukee (Mitchell St.) stores will be closing ;)

[sigmano9]

really?!? i used to hit up the one in pewaukee every once and a while on my way home from work...damn now i'll have to use the one in west allis

[Nakilos]

I believe the West Allis one closed a year or two ago, unless you're referring to a different one.

The Cudahy, Racine, Kenosha and I am fairly sure Fond Du Lac Gamecrazy stores are staying open. Realistically the Cudahy one is the closest to be able to accomodate a lot of the Milwaukee area but it has always been pretty steadily busy.

[Vulgarism]

Picked it up at the Sturgeon Bay's Target for $7.xx today.

[sigmano9]

probably the same, i havent been to that one in aboot a year or two......damn that sucks.

[Derrick1979]

Yeah it looks like if your in the Milwaukee area your stuck with the Crudahy location now if you want a GC store..

[RoGo7]

Shopko has GHWT for PS3 @ $20.99.

The other GHWT & Rockband for other systems were not marked. They were on the top shelf and way out of reach. Anyone know if the Xbox360 is the same price?

I don't want to get someone and end up not getting it.

Game only?

[RoGo7]

Nope, Big boxes. So I assume at least 1 guitar is in there.

Anyone really like game crazy? the ones in mill seem kinda .... well crappy

[jer7583]

I used to work at the one in West Allis on National before they closed.

Old manager when I first started was the biggest thief, then the guy after that was cool, we had halo 2 parties at his house sometimes. It's been an Advance Auto Parts for almost two years now.

[Derrick1979]

I never really had any good experiences at any of the gamecrazy's around milwaukee so I could care less.. suprisingly for the most part I get real good serivce at the Few Gamestops I frequent.

[Derrick1979]

Double post here... just wanted to give the heads up that the Target Store on 124th and Capitol Drive is now open again.

[jer7583]

Are there any kind of cool hangout-gaming lounge type places in milwaukee? I know there's an "internet cafe" type place downtown but it seems to be more like "come here and pay $4 an hour to play WoW" type of scene.

I think it'd be cool to have a place to go and find people to play Street Fighter 4 with. Back at Michigan State there was an arcade I liked going to about once a week to play CvS2 with a group of people.

i wish there was one..... lets open one! lol

[Terrenceistheman]

was just in the Wal Mart in Sun Prairie and they had the Xbox 360 Special Edition of Rock Band 2 for $80. Think the cheapest I've seen it before is $99

http://imgur.voxcdn.com/TvWdq.jpg

[Mr Dude65]

I picked one up for $75 in August.

[Chambered]

La Crosse, WI

South side Shopko has Fallout 3 GOTY marked down to $39.99. Lots of copies when I was there.
The others might have it, too, probably call before you drive there, though.

[perdition(troy]

walmart in racine/oak creek has mw2 for 55.05

[DukeSoccer]

walmart in racine/oak creek has mw2 for 55.05

same with the one in pewaukee, plus a bunch of other new games for 55.05

[mcelfour]

West side Madison Shopko has DBZ: Bukdokai 2 and a Naruto game on PS2 for $3.49. I bit on DBZ for that.
