I'd suggest not charging and putting them on backorder until you're "sold out". It's less of a headache than outright cancelling.

Well when you quote someone and then talk directly to him I read it as you addressing him. Guess I'm nuts.

Damn, mine still seems to be in limbo. I did Paypal and it says in progress. It seems almost everyone else shipped. Now I wish I went into the City and just bought it, I'm starting to hate Kmart all over again.

Point taken.

Chances of FFXIII coming back in stock online? No Kmarts near me, and I'm really wanting this game...signed up for email alert, hoping for the best. Either way, nice deals.

Went to pick up an Xbox Live 12 month subscription -- but it rang up as $49.99. I asked the guy if it was on sale this week for $39.99 and he said nope.

My understanding is that it should be $39.99 this week, correct? Kmart was in South Burlington, VT.

Bought FFXIII yesterday, and I was surprised at the atmosphere in the store. They sat a set of washer and drier on sale right in front of the store entrance, and there was an employee announcing all of the store promotions through the intercom. (including the washer and drier) I usually ignore whatever the say through the intercom, but the way he was advertising it was funny. Sort of made me feel, like if I wasn't in a box store.

I signed up for their rewards card, which I believe may have been their real goal other than just getting people to check out the store again.

I forgot to relate my experience yesterday.

I went down to the store and asked if they had any games on sale. They asked me to specify, and I did. They "if it's not in the sale paper, it's not on sale." I look through it just to be sure. Since I didn't find anything, and I was in a hurry, I left. When I got home, we called 'em up and asked the manager, who was nice enough. Scanned and said, "Yes, it's on sale." I went and picked it up for $30.

Just a silly idea that someone working there might actually know what's going on, haha.

If I get some cash soon, I'll go back and get Aliens Vs Predator or Darksiders.

Its one of the deals that is shown in the ad. So yes.

I'm pretty sure that one was in the circular so you should have just told them to grab one and check. Anyway you can get one on newegg for $35

Ok, I found Final Fantasy XIII for PS3 at the second K-Mart I went to today. The guy was organizing the games section and was helpful enough to find the game for me. It rang up at $31.94 including tax. There where 3 copies left of the PS3 version, but the guy said that there could be more. I didn't check for the 360 version. This is the K-Mart at 4340 Okeechobee Blvd, West Palm Beach, FL 33409. Good luck

terrible arguement. you should have said, why should you help your competitors and alienate your customers? limit the purchases to 2 per household so more people can enjoy the deal. not only that, more people will become loyal k-mart/sears shoppers in the long run.

Yep, same store.

SHC Guy or Gamer or whoever,Can please tell me if they excepted my order and still not shipped does it mean they sold out and I won't get my FF13 PS3? I'm getting upset, I have asked about this 5 or more times and niether of you has answered. I need some type of answer here. This is not acceptable.

SHC, are you happy that all the stores you contacted (including the on I asked about) will have the correct sale prices now ?

If I get my order in for FFXIII for PS3, you got my vote for CAGer of the year

My local Kmart was out of MW2 so I asked for a raincheck, then wasted 30 minutes waiting to talk to a "manager" that doesn't know the difference between an online-only price and a price that's advertised online. She looked at me like I was trying to commit fraud or something, even though SHC-Gamer already said he contacted the store. Anyways this was the first time I've gone to a Kmart of my own free will, and it'll probably be the last.

PS. The store also smelled like crap.
