Ooh snap... 25% off doesn't seem like much, but that nudges some of the titles at my local Kmart from "meh" to "maybe."

Is there a trick to knowing what officially counts as "clearance?" Like the price tag ending in a certain number or something?

I assume you're talking about Kmart clearance, correct? If so, you just need to go into the Kmart clearance thread and skim through the pages to see what's been on clearance to know what to look for as some stores may not properly mark items that're on clearance.

Yup, thanks! Sorry about that, I sort of forgot what thread I was in.

No need to apologize. If you have a PS3, the PS EYE and chatpad accessories are $15 and $20 respectively and Singularity should be $5 before the 25% discount.

Those are the only ones I know of outside of the buttloads of Rock Band/DJ Hero and other music games that're on clearance there.

Any first-hand opinions on the Rocketfish headsets? (I tried to do a search in this thread, but came up empty. If it's already been answered, just point me to the post. Thanks.)

Man, I wish I had a Kmart I could score 1600 point cards at that price. But, no Kmart around here...

Lots of interesting titles on clearance at my nearby Kmart, but I already own the majority of the decent ones. It was my surprise to find that the Trauma Center Wii game I noticed there about three months ago (can't remember which) was the only title that had vanished... and it's the only thing I would've picked up.

Are we able to stack two of the $10 codes from the $50 In-store pick-up deal on something?

Even if you did, it's pretty sparse trying to find these. Only the point cards in clamshells and on security tags apply. The disposable cards never go on clearance/sale (unless you're Target for some reason)

Well you can always sell it for $40 & then price match it too. If you do it quickly you'll get the game for free, $20 RZ points & reg RZ points.

You would have to purchase several titles, have them pm'd 1st then hope b/c of the # of total games your purchasing that the cashier doesn't catch it. It's double dipping though so YMMV.

I picked up NHL11 at BBV for about 4-5 bucks in the sale last time. Way worth it. Grabbed FIFA 12 for 20 after a 20 cert at BB.

Some oldies I loved were Ken Griffey Baseball on SNES and Wayne Gretsky Hockey on 64. Still some of the best sports titles I have played.

I realize instore isn't an option anymore but can the $10 coupons be stacked?

Anybody know for sure if the @ Gamer coupons would stack with the B2G1 deal? Soul Calibur V and SSX went out of stock/got put in the back QUICKLY during the sale. Figured I could possibly pick those up with this, idk.

They SHOULD stack since these coupons are for @ Gamer unlocked members or magazine buyers, but it doesn't surprise me if they don't stack.

If you mean can you get 2 $10 coupons for spending 100, 3 coupons for spending 150, the answer is not in the same transaction. Otherwise people would be buying big ticket items and getting in effect up to a 20% discount/rebate. Each separate order over $50 for in-store pick-up will get you a separate coupon. I placed two different orders a couple of days a part and got 2 coupons as a result.

The coupon themselves work essentially the same as gift cards - they have a code that can be used for $10 any purchase (I'm assuming the purchase has to be $10 or more or you lose the difference, as they are not redemmable for cash). The only caveat is that they expire at the end of the following month. There's nothing on the coupon that says it can't be used with other coupons or discounts, so it appears that you can use as many as you have.

Curious if anyone has been able to find Theatrhythm at a BB store which shows it as sold out (which appears to be nearly every store in my state)?

I'd love to take advantage of the deal, but that would have to be one of the three games.

It's been buried in the thread, but when the deal went live Saturday night (and Theatrhythm wasn't part of the b2g1 online) I placed an order for just that game alone and had it shipped to store. If it made it in on time, I was going to do a return/rebuy to get it for b2g1 free. I'm not sure if it's too late to arrive on time now, but it will give you an estimated arrival date before finishing the order so you should have some idea.

I'm a bit bummed out because Rhythm Thief doesn't appear to have shipped to any of my local stores. The estimated ship to store time puts it to next Monday, and the price at Best Buy is still listed as $40. I'm going to call the stores when they open, but right now pretty much everything that could go wrong with getting this game as part of this deal has gone wrong.

Really sorry for you luck. I live in Northwest IN and all of my closest stores have it in stock. It's very curious that so many people are having trouble finding this game.

I'm having the exact same issue. Rhythm Thief is nowhere around me, and only one store anywhere near me has Theatrhythm. I'd love to get in on this deal, but Best Buy is making it real tough. I might just give in and get them both on Amazon.
