doesn't look like Amazon's gonna match, time to go to TRU

They said I could not get a refund for $59.99 unless I brought back in all 3 games, but that I could definitely exchange a game for another $59.99 game. Now Prim or others may say that it is not company policy to do this (which it may not be), so a lot could depend on your own local store. This mgr is there all the time so I am pretty confident that if I took part in this deal I could go in next week and do an even exchange for BF3 (or any other $59.99 game). I have my BF3 pre-ordered from BB because of the free expansion pack that you get with the game. There is no preorder bonus for BF3 at TRU

Thank you sir. BF3, I'm not concerned about. I have both of my SKUs taken care of already.

Dance Central 2, I'm more concerned about, since I don't personally know anyone working @ Harmonix nor Microsoft outside of work.

Aijuswanna....DANCE!

Haddaway's WHAT IS LOVE?! I'm all over it.

my toys r us sucked bad i wanted dark souls or even forza 4 with two copies of batman, nothing wiped out at 11am on a tuesday? Ended up getting rage, and i plan on exchanging for bf3 or dark souls. Got 2 figures for 2 copies of batman they only had 2 left at 11am.

Just got back from my lunchtime visit to TRU. I didn't plan on picking anything up this year due to low funds but I was at a local casino this weekend with my wife for our anniversary and managed to win $150. Clearly that was a sign that I needed to do the B2G1 deal.

I ended up with Dark Souls (PS3), Batman AC (PS3) and Rage (360). Not too shabby.

Went to TRU earlier this morning and they had the Cabela's 2k11 and Rappala fishing bundles clearly marked at $9.98 each, so decided to do another round. Already had Cabela from Gamestop, but grabbed another just in case I wanted to do multi-player in the future. Made Populous DS my 3rd game for free and told the clerk if he saw me again, deny me from buying anymore, lol. This site makes you spend money even when you have no intentions

If this is true and Best Buy does end up doing their own B2G1, I could go ahead and buy Arkham City today at BB and get a price adjustment later, correct?

(Sorry for asking a BB specific question in a TRU thread).

I believe it was established previously in this thread that ToysRUs and Best Buy now mark all three games at $39.99 when doing the B2G1Free sale so that you can't use a "placeholder" game. If you returned the placeholder game next week and wanted to pick up a newly-released game then, you'd have to pay another $20. ($39.99 placeholder refund + $20 = $59.99 for new title)

Got Arkham City (PS3) at Best Buy today. For those that asked, yes, the Robin voucher is inside the case. I asked the employee at the register in the video game section about the Batman: Under the Red Hood movie mentioned in the online ad, but he had no idea what I was talking about.

Hopefully you already traded Just Dance in. Best Buy's site is showing the xbox version tiv for 23 now and wii for 22. Comes up on the first page as 29 still but when you click to trade it it shows the updated price of 23. Guess they finally caught on lol.

The receipt also says "refund price $39.99"

Sorry if it was already mentioned, but does TRU have Arkham City Collector's Edition in-store?

Sure did. BBY was right next to the TRU I went to.

Didnt see any at my local store.

Just walked out of TRU feeling pretty good. Grabbed Rage, Resistance 3, and Batman with the B2G1. Got the free figure and used the 25 dollar gift card I got a couple weeks back for buying Dead Island to knock the total down to 104 with tax. I'll give the figure to my kid cousin for Christmas so that's one less gift to buy later.

EDIT: Sorry for the double post, as I'm guessing that's frowned upon by the mods around here.

You can edit the first post to add in your second post and then delete your second post.


probably doesn't matter though.

man my toysrus was out of batman and dead island, they said that they will receive shipment Thursday, but don't know what they will get.

my TRU didn't have any batman action figures.

Two Arkham Citys and Gears 3 plus the Batman figure from Toys R Us = SWEETNESS!!!!

My TRU had plenty of everything in stock including Dark Souls. I used the sale to buy trade in fodder for BB instead though. Got a manager at BB to match the sale although it took an hour as all the managers argued over it.
