Should at least have asked for a kiss in return. You never know. One act of kindness for another.

Damn you guys! I've only played about 30 minutes of ME1 and have ME2 unopened. How can I pass up a $10 copy of ME3 to complete the trilogy?

Question: Best Buy now price matches Amazon, right? Regular edition of ME3 is 20 bucks on Amazon so could I get Best Buy to price match the $20 price and then use my $20 gamer coupon to get the game for free? I'm new to gamer (just signed up less than 2 weeks ago) so I'm not sure how these coupons work. I see the "fine print" says not valid with other coupons or offers but a price match is different, no? Anyone have any experience with this??

Matching AMZ is YMMV and double dipping with PM is also, extremely YMMV.

No you can't price match and use the coupon. And my best buy doesn't match any online prices.

Thanks for the heads up op!

Going to get RE6 and Lollipop for myself tomorrow and a ME3 CE for PS3 for a CAG friend. Called my store, they have one ME3CE and are holding it for me till tomorrow...or so they say.

I'm trying to decide if I'd rather have the N7 version on the PS3 or the regular 360 version. Since your save carries over, I think the 360 would be the better choice for me (assuming I ever finish ME2), but I'm not 100% sure yet.

Well one of my friends who works for Best Buy tells me that they are supposed to price match Amazon (at his store at least) despite what some misinformed associates tell you. I just didn't want to bother him with some Best Buy questions if I could get the answer here but I guess I'll bug him a bit just to shed more light on this question lol.

I remember someone posted that it is a trial thing with them matching Amazon, so apparently it's only happening at some stores. As far as pricematching and then using the coupon, that's considered "double dipping" and they aren't suppose to stack the coupon on top of that if they go by the book. Of course, that may be YMMV if you get lucky.

Did anyone had trouble using this coupon and the one that some of us received during the week with the mystery bonus credit ($5)

What a surprising end to that story.

I am a gamers club unlocked member as of last month but haven't received my first gamer issue. How do I retrieve the coupons that are being mentioned? I would love to pick ME3 for ten dollars.

Thank you so much OP!!! LC was the only thing I wanted this month. I had $15 in credit so paying $5 for it out of pocket was a steal.

Boy, they sure waited till the last minute on ME3 and LC. I tried ordering both online for store pickup, but apparantly there is no way to use the magazine coupons online.

They told me to just call my local store, and they have pulled them now so I can pop over and snag them on cheap.

THIS is why I love CAG!

I wish we could redeem these stupid things online. GAH, hate dealing with BB personnel. And what a waste of gas and time. I guess the point is to get us inside the store, though. Anway, thanks, OP. ME3 is only worth $5...and that's exactly what I paid (with RZ).

I don't mind.. its right next to walmart anyway, and there is always some crap we need there.

Nope, did it this morning, no problems.

Grabbed BF3 (PS3) & ME3 (360) for 20+tax. I didn't want to drive far for the ME3 CE (PS3) so I just grabbed ME3 to complete the trilogy. I now officially own all 3 ME games for $25 so I'm happy except I haven't even started ME1 yet.

I live in bum Wisconsin and my store just started to. Though only 1 of the 3 employees standing there knew about it. The other three both commented "really, we do?"
