When you trade-in games, do you tell them to just add it to your Pitch-In card (like GS's Powerup Card)? With all the screw-ups other people seem to experience with BB, I'd be kinda nervous to do it that way and not get credited the correct amount.

So let's say you trade in $100 (pre-bonus) worth of games. You'll get 200 points for the trade in and 100 points for the pitch in contribution, so 300 points total. So just to take it one step further, if the 100% is going on and you are GCU you would get $210 in credit and 310 points ($5 and 60 points left over), so free $5.
Plus I think the trade in counts toward premiere silver and so does the pitch-in contribution. So you just got $200 toward premiere silver as well.

Unfortunately, you can't get the Pitch-In Card in-store anymore; you're restricted to requesting one online at Bestbuy.com to be mailed to you.
