Need for Speed: the Run rings up free with the coupon. YMMV to get a cashier to accept the coupon since its 19.99 for the game. Trades into AMZ for $16.50 each copy. GS TIV base is $13 before promo.

You're welcome bitches

Fortunately there are other Targets he doesn't control , but it is making things somewhat of a pain and wasting me time and gas.

Went and tried again a little bit ago. Douchebag said I could only trade in 2 games during the whole promotion, cause he remembered me from yesterday. He said nobody came in today to do multiple trades and said I was lying, gave him the finger and told him to screw himself. The lady at the kezier station target gladly accepted my second batch of trade in's and said ya it's suppose to be 2 a day. So i wouldn't waste the gas if your trying to get multiple trades from salem cause it's only 2 a day at kezier station and once only at Lancaster mall location. Don't know where this dude got his info from!

Ah, another local CAG and a Duck fan none-the-less

It was yesterday when I was in there and I told her about the promo code. She was going to allow me to do as many as I wanted, but it took 30 minutes to do the first two so I called it good.

Let's see I traded in 12. Between flips I got cash/bb credit that equaled the money I spent out of pocket. And I STILL HAVE rayman, sonic, UC3, and Metal gear hd to show for it. Um that basically means I got those games "free" for unloading crappy games I had under my bed (really, under the bed).

So I say again, best deal there ever was or will be!

No. For whatever reason they didn't reduce in price when they tried the coupon with them today. Not that I would've bought more than 1-2 anyway(especially since my closest store has em stuck at frickin' $41.98), since I needed to return all the ones I bought prior due to my credit card I bought them on coming due n not having the $$$ to pay it at that point.

I wish they would've had RDR GOTY marked at my Target cuz I would've grabbed that for my one friend so we could play that online.

Good to see a local CAG in my area,now I know I better jump on some of these deals quick now LOL.
If it was the thick chick then ya she was pretty helpful, but the other mobile worker who was a guy was cool yesterday but a super douche today, he was even telling me yesterday that he was a gamer and should jump on the promotion too. After 2 days I got to say i got what i wanted anyway.

AC revelations $10
Metal gear solid HD $20
Dead Island $10

i loved playing rdr online. i only did it like 1 week, but my grrl and i were leading a full possy and did all the hideouts and got all the online trophies. hit level 50 with triple xp weekend in like 2 days and did a bunch of co op missions. i got the online trophies for having highest bounty and staying alive for so long, i did that one when i had a full possy and just held up with about 8 guys surrounding me and shooting anyone that came near. fun fun fun time.

Damn that is a nice pick up, I wish i wouldve have known that. Either way cant complain with this great deal and it has been a good week even though i feel games like portal 2 and need for speed and hot pursuit will be 9.99 prob within the year.

Total haul
ALL PS3
Assassins Creed Revelations
Red Dead Redemption GOY
Portal 2
La Noire Complete Edition
Need For Speed Hot pursuit

Uncharted 1/2 and Control Bundle 21.00

So $90 for 7 games and aps3 controller is not bad!

Time is running out for the promo here in Cali....only did 1 trade of two games to get Mario Party 9....wondering if it worth getting around to trading in Soul Calibur 3 and Fishing Master for a ps vita game.

Damn good haul!

That sucks i mean the game is in basically in there so it shouldve went through. My cousin and I were able to without any problems. Cashier was even amazed at the price and called it a good come up lol . There were plenty of bundles but decided to just give another hopefully cag member a shot to own it. Have a good number of controllers already at home.

RDR GotY was still marked $40 at mine, so I didn't bother to try it. Probably should have just to see if it rang up $29.99. Sucks about the NFS too since my cashier probably would have taken it, but when I got so many other awesome games for the price even following the limitations and not pressing my luck farther I'm still happy for myself and for the others who did even better.

Prototype 2 (PS3) - $40 [couldn't get them to price match Fry's cause I didn't have their physical ad but I might go back tomorrow with an ad]

3x Assassin's Creed: Revelations (PS3) $10 each

Haha, I just got home and was planning on posting my winnings. These are what I got over the past few days. Hopefully I stay unbanned because I went to a few targets in the same day. At one store the employees were really cool and let me trade in 4 games at once. I tried to come back with 4 games later like a jerk and they turned me down. No biggie because I was thankful they even let me get 2 coupons. It was a douchebag move on my part but I had to give it a try or I'd be regretting it right now.

Jurassic park the game - $9.90
Dead Island - $9.99
Assassins Creed Revelations - $9.99 --> went to GS towards new ps3 console.
Assassins Creed Revelations - $9.99
Rayman Origins - $9.99
Driver San Francisco - Paid the $11.98 instead of using up a coupon
Uncharted 3 - $9.99 --> Went to BB towards upgrade and save promotion blu-rays. They had at least a dozen UC3 left so I didn't feel too guilty trading it to BB.
Need for Speed the Run - FREE!

Darn, didn't even realize I could have PMed GS for ME3, that was the price I was looking for to get in on. Oh well, I'll just keep waiting since I basically finished my brother's copy before he took it back to school anyway. Don't need to see the ending/listen to podcasts about it that bad anyway.

When was this though? I ask because I was there around 11am-noon today. So maybe they put out a system update to block them. Either that or maybe they had to scan the coupon first(they scanned it last in each transaction here) to get it to apply automatically.

RDR GOTY was a regional price cut. I checked at mine, even punching the DCPI into the price checker and it came up 39.99. Big boo-urns on that one. :/

Too many people making minimum wage... to go through all the hassles to make ... $50 or $70 profit tops. I have better things to do with my time and energy than to go to Target so many times and kiss ass with employees so they can take 20 trades or so... especially those with balls to take PS1 games and even Sega Genesis games from what I read. People have guts to do shit like this.
