I tested it and it looks like they send you an actual gift card so no to your question unfortunately.

In the other box, even though it says (min $10) it will let you add a $5.

Thanks for responding. Damn. Didn't realize that you just purchase the game alone if the game was 29.99 before coupon. Got Journey and ratchet and clank.

Too busy killing mosquitoes to go to sleep.

For Journey CE I used the SONY50 code to get it to $14.99 and the SAVER code for Free shipping For Jack and Daxter I used the SONY50 code to get it to $9.99 + $3.49 shipping...SAVER doesn't work For Ico/Shadow I did the same as Jak and Dexter. You have to put in your power up rewards card or the codes don't work.

Yeah I was about to go back into the store and tell them they forgot to give me that disc until I realized it.

Hey, so I'm too lazy to look through the thread. Here's my question:
Can I use the coupon for multiple items assuming each item is a different transaction?

And what would you guys recommend getting? I'm playing GOW I+II HD and it's pretty fun, so I could go for the GOW saga but I'm hoping it and the controller bundle go on sale. Already have UC 1+2 and Killzone trilogy.

Yes you can and should use the coupon for multiple transactions. As for the collections, you should get all of them. Literally, they are all well worth the money and all great games.

Thanks but SAVER wouldn't apply. Even tried $6 gc to be safe

You're using a physical address and not a PO Box right? I know someone said they had that problem with the SAVER code.

After reading through all the experiences going into Gamestop in this thread, I can clearly see why people prefer to shop online. I am always shocked when ANY B/M store actually knows about their own promotions. I am always the one telling them about it, then they have to go look it up, etc. If a B/M store really wants to compete, they should train their damn employees and keep them abreast of all relevant current promotions.

Damnit, and I thought I was done with ordering.. in for one order of R&C, and another order of J&D with a gift card. That's it, I swear.

How do you get a $5 gift card? I only see $10

To be fair, I think this was a up at the corporate/website level, and the promotion really wasn't supposed to happen, at least not until Monday many of us were told. So the employees in-store were never supposed to know about it.

Nice! I was contemplating a gift card, but I found a $4.99 used game that made SAVER work on Jak & Daxter, thought might as well try to see if it comes complete.

I better not wake up tomorrow with GS cancel emails and this thread growing 40 more pages of rage.

Not sure if serious

Hmm, so even if I pay all with credit online they still charge tax? I was going to add R&C to the Jak, Ico and GOW Saga I already got in-store, but I think I'll just wait to see if I do get a coupon on Monday. I'd rather not pay tax if I can avoid it.

Hey what do you think of Jax & Daxter? I was wondering about picking that one up as well and Rachet and Clank. Someone please convince me since I have no knowledge of Playstation games.

people who are cognizant of deals, especially something like this that was poorly advertised to the public, make up a very small proportion of the market base of those who purchase games in general. deals are ran specifically for the segment of the population that's highly (relatively) elastic to prices and thus they require price reductions to enter transactions. if anything, this is perfect--people who know of deals will always explain them to employees, anyway, because they want that price differences and consider it to be more beneficial than the time wasted (and frustration) of explaining is costly. those who do not know likely don't care, and the store is better off entering into transactions with those people without coupons.

Never played ICO/Shadow so I am getting in on this.

code doesn't seem to be working with Uncharted dual pack!

Thanks to the online code, I got Journey and a used copy of Gungrave on PS2 for $20.62 (my current copy randomly disappeared a few months back). Saver worked once I dropped in Gungrave.
