Did those 250gb hard drives drop? I saw two of them at my store but they were both still marked $75.

For those in Cincinnati the Tri County Sears has the best selection locally. Prices rang up cheaper than marked on everything I picked up. Got Dead Space 2, MK, WWE All Stars for $9.97 each for the 360.

The fine print of....not valid on clearance... relaxed my nerves. Edit: Wait. $15 in ponts for spending $50, but I have the $5 off $50, too.

Too bad those SYWR points coupons rarely work. I think the only coupons that work on my end are the 'Update your email and get $XX in points'

Actually if you have access to a Fry's Electronics near you, Skyward Sword is currently $19.99, not much different than the $15 Best Buy price. Of course it's in-store only, that botches up most of east coast, but great for CA residents.

seems lke the sears got cleaned out around me :(

Didn't buy anything, found Animal Crossing, Zelda TP for $10 and Steel Diver, Enchanted Arms for $5.

I think he may have saw my post a couple pages back. I got a few Dual Game PS Move bundles for $25. This was only because the store I went to had a 75% off clearance games extra sale. So all the 10$ games were 2.50. All the 30$ games were $7.50 etc.

The dual bundles were 25$ down from 99.99. Oddly the dual bundle isnt even on clearance. It just happened to be in the 75% sale bin so it got included in the sale.

Mine had a clearance up to the manager, it seems, but I got 2 of those for $30 each a few months ago. Haven't seen any of them anywhere since. On a related note, there were some Xbox harddrives for $30 at my Kmart, but they were the 60 GB ones. After getting a 250 from Sears for the same price, I found it funny to see that.

Good finds. The Manchester, CT Sears didn't have anything marked clearance and there was no employee in site for me to bother them scanning things. The game selection did look smaller, but everytime I went there there were no games on clearance. Same when I've been to the Meriden, CT ones. I think the Sears in CT don't mark anything on clearance and It's a bummer. However, the KMart ones seem to clearance games here and there.

As long as the games are actually out in the open and you don't have to wait for an employee to get them out of a case, take them to the scanner and check them yourself. That's how I've found MANY deals before.

In albuquerque, nm at the sears in cottonwood mall, I managed to pick up

Deus Ex Human Revolution X360 for 4.97 (sticker had 14.97)
Steel Diver 3DS for 4.97 (sticker had 9.97)
Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D for 9.97 (sticker had 29.97)

All of them had different prices on them too and all rang up differently at the register.

All in all, happy camper with my findings. Wish I could have found more!

Went to a Sears I haven't been to before. They had Xbox Portal 2, but not the PS3 version. Saw a Shadow of the Colossus NEW $14.9x. Good thing it isn't rare/valuable(checked eBay after I left) because I left it.

Street Fighter IV 3DS($9.99). No 3ds, yet, but I tend to buy stuff before I get a system I'm interested in.

Well, at some point, my Sears decided to start carrying games again. And from the looks of it, it had been scavenged HARD. There were a bunch of empty slots in the game case, and the clearance bin was kind of a mess from how much it'd been sifted through. Can't say I blame the lucky guys who went through it- I just wish I'd known the place had picked games back up sooner.

That said, I did pick up:
Lost Planet 2- $4.97
Darksiders- $9.97
Mario Super Sluggers- $9.97

I was in kind of a hurry to get out of there, so I didn't notice until after I got back home that Super Sluggers wasn't Sports Mix.

That's if your store has scanners available. At our Sears, the nearest scanner is in the children's clothing department (in other words: far away) and the electronics section is enclosed in plexiglass walls; any attempts to remove games will set off the alarm. Toys R Us here used to be the same way until the last year or so.

Might be the quickest way to get an employee over to have them scan things for you

Go find the pocket of them standing around talking by the major appliances

YES. They always do that!

That sounds like the one mall out in NJ where I picked up either Loco Roco 2 or Patapon for PSP really cheap a few years ago. I think it was actually like $.29 a copy at the time.

But here the electronics is wide open and they have multiple price scanners, so I have actually hauled 3-10 games at a clip before from there to the scanners and back again.

Speaking of Patapon, I just now noticed that the Patapon I got for $.97 cents doesn't have the game, but instead it has a downloadable voucher in it. Well, it does according to what it says on the case. I haven't opened it yet. I've never seen that before. Going through all the trouble of making a case, manual, then paying for shipping, and selling it to a retailer, and they only have a voucher for it. I don't really care, but this just seems retarded. Anybody know why they did that?
