I bought two of them from this sale as well (the FF12 guide). They never got pennied out years and years ago, so they still kept them I suppose. The ones I got were 14.99, reduced to 6.75 I think.

picked up anarchy reigns along with
witcher 2 guide $10.13 (pur + 2 different promos?)
ff xiii-2 sd guide $6.75 (pur + 1 promo)

when you get a game you get an extra 10%

Has there been the slightest bit of chatter as to when the next B2G1 sale will be? I absolutely refuse to use my $20 gift card that I got for Christmas until then.

no idea, but i have a b2g1 coupon that needs to be used

Next B2G1 will probably be sometime in March-April (income tax season).

Also, to confirm, this unfortunately does NOT work on the DMC guide for anyone who is thinking about it. Sad, I wanted to do it as well :(

Also, @technicalstylez: As bj said, you get an additional 20% on the one guide (more expensive) for buying it with a game and having a PUR card. Normally, the PUR takes 10% off, but the game added on does nother 10%, plus your 50% off.

Hadn't thought of that, looks like I'll be hanging onto my gift card for a while.

Picked up the Soul Calibur V CE for 2.25 after all discounts, so I walked out a very happy customer.

considering that im getting scv with the @gamer coupon this month that copy of the guide thats sitting at my gs looks like it will be brought now

same it was still stickered $10 so I thought it was gonna be $5.

I price matched the 50% off guide sale at Best Buy yesterday. Yeah, you dont get the extra 10-20% extra on top of the 50% like you do with the PUR card, but you still get points on your Rewards card and more importantly, guides that aren't even offered at GS.

That's cool, I may have to try that. Already spent over $40 on guides last week from GS though...arrrgh.

I feel sad. I picked it up from Walmart on Black Friday and I still haven't even opened it.

At one GS I visited, the employee suggested buying a used game to get the additional 10% off for the six guides I purchased, but for whatever reason, the discount wouldn't appear after scanning a game (he tried a used copy of Halo 3 just to see if it would work). I figured that three promos stacking might be a little much for GS to handle.

Has anyone with a PUR Pro account had success buying a used game with a guide to get the additional 10% discount?

I'm fairly positive when I did it last week that it did. I'll look at my reciept when I get home and post it if it did. If it doesn't, I'm not upset, I still got a good deal, and BB were the best about PMing the couple of CE guides they didn't have at GS. I think I got 4 CE guides and 3 regular ones for the price of 2 of the CE guides full price.

when i bought anarchy reigns new i got
witcher 2 - pur 10%/50%/ mystery 10%
ffxiii-2- pur 10%/ 50%

was wondering what the extra 10% on witcher 2 was for, and if it was for buying a game then should it have been applied to both games? idunno.

The extra 10% should come off when buying a used game. Picked up SSBM at about 85% off and a copy of the Witcher 2 guide and got the extra 10 % off no problem.

Tempted to get The Witcher 2 guide.
