Welcome to the 5th Annual Cheapy Awards, the only awards the honor the best (and worst) in video game retail, voted on by CAGs, the most knowledgeable video game shoppers in the world.

The awards are currently in the voting phase. Please cast your votes using the integrated voting system in each thread in this forum.

Win a $500 Amazon Gift Certificate
Just by voting, you will automatically be entered in a raffle to win a $500 gift certificate from last year's Best Online Retailer winner, Amazon. The more categories you vote in, the better your chances of winning. One account per person.
Anyone found creating multiple accounts will be permanently IP banned from CAG.

When will the results of this be aired?

I'm not exactly sure. Planning a vacation around it?

I just wanted to say that I refuse to cross the picket lines and will not be participating in the awards ceremony.

Perhaps like me, Sideshow intends to wager on the results of the Cheapy Awards.

The discuss link in the entry leads to /last/ years Cheapy Awards. Surely it should either link to the forum, or this topic?

Man, it seems like the cheapy awards were just last week.

No CAG Hero this year or am I just not seeing it?

NVM, I see the Community award is basically replacing it.

I thought we do these in the Summer...

I guess when ir rain in pours when cheapy does stuff nor complaining though

There's a relatively unknown store that I'd like to nominate: Family Video. I was able to buy Halo 3 for 45 bucks, including tax and shipping, right when Halo 3 was released. Looking at their website right now, they have a $5 off $50 coupon. Even compared to Amazon, an excellent place for getting video game deals, some of their games are slightly cheaper (compare Uncharted, Mario Galaxy, and Mass Effect).

Yipwoop, put that in the correct thread.

Not to mention it isn't unknown; it's mentioned as one of the game outlets for new releases by the shipwrecks every week.

Will do. Thanks.

What about a category for favorite CAGCast of the year?

I second this... i guess you could go by which had the most diggs, but i digg every show, as i'm assuming most people do. it would be interesting to know which show people liked the most.. maybe a longer show, one with a guest, etc.

Cheapy Awards already? Is it March yet?

While I'm not sure if it should be a "which is best" type thing, I think it would be interesting to track what consoles people have year to year with this.

I think there should've been a Worst DLC Value of the year category. Especially given the plethora of DLC this year, and how much you, Cheapy hate DLC.

I actually thought about that, but decided against it.
Maybe next year.

Also, I don't hate DLC in theory, only in execution so far.
