sweet,thanks for the heads up token will go do that now

Now lets see if these gow are in stock. My store had one copy, the one i returned. Hopefully still there

my suggestion is check every where. They did not have copies in the normal alphabetized section, but copies in a new release section, endcaps, and on a cart..plus, at the store I was at, the price sticker hadn't even been changed from $39.99, but I think they had just printed the labels..

Thank you for letting us know. I will go back to return and rebuy my GOW Origin.

So is the coupon working w/o need for overide on ICO collection now? Has anyone tried it today?

I ordered both GoW:O and ICO coll. online with store pickup back when they were first on sale online. I tried to use the @gamer coupon to make these $15 each, but couldn't get it to work in the store since they were coming up as $40 at the time.

I'm very happy to say that today I went back and saw that both games were marked as $24.99 in the store and a very nice store manager did a return rebuy for both of them. He scanned the coupon from an in-store magazine so I got both of them for $15 each. I still don't have my latest @gamer magazine yet (joined unlocked back on 9/12). I offered to buy a second copy of the mag and just have him scan the coupon twice, but he didn't even make me buy the mag. I thought this was pretty awesome.

I've had a little frustration with the whole game trade-in program, but this definitely makes me like my local BB store a little more.

Thanks Enuf and to anyone else for bringing the issue with these coupons to BestBuy's attention. Love me some cheap(er) games!

Yeah didn't work again at best buy ny in livittown. The system was still on 39 even though the price tag was 24. Anyone in long island should avoid this location if they want to use the coupon.

Thats my local bb, they get NASTY when you need an overide or price match . Its like your holding them up and taking the savings out of there pocket .

The coupon works with no override! Here's my story. I originally purchased the two games online so I could make sure I actually got the games. I tried to get the coupon with a manual override but that was a no go at my store. I then tried to get my the coupon override at another and that was a no go. I brought in my the forum post, and they weren't trying to hear it. The cashier let me have the magazine for free though. Finally today I returned the games and the rep at my store used the coupon twice. At first she told me the coupon wouldn't work on an online order. I thought I was going to need an override. She scanned the coupon and it said $0.00 so I thought it wasn't going to work. Since I had $33 on a giftcard, I didn't have to pay anything out of pocket. They refunded the difference of $21.54 to my card. Now I can finally play these games! Talk about being cheap!

Thanks for sharing, did you only need your reciept or did you bring in the game as well?

lol. i got icolossus collection for $7 week after it came out. picked up gow o and icolossus for 60, then week later price matched 50, then had them lower it to 40 w/coupon(only good on one game) then platted gow o and flipped it for 33. woot

Decided to grab Ico/SotC collection for $14.99 today.

I would also like to know this.

Got GoW very easily without an override. It ended up being $5 since I had a $10 reward zone certificate.

Where'd you flip it for $33, Amazon? It's at $24.30 right now, but their TIVs are always changing...usually going down.

Grabbed ICO today. For those of you like me who don't have a sub to the magazine, if you buy the current issue with the game and use the coupon, you'll still save $5.

i gave it back to bestbuy. it was 21 + 60%. this was last week tho
gow o was a 2 day/2 plat run.

You beat me to it! I bought Ico last week for $25 at walmart, they pricematched best buy for me. I was at best buy today and saw the sale tag marked $25. The rep at first told me I can't use the coupon because he has to go uy what it says on the back. I told him to read his employees news and he refused to. A sup was walking by right as we were talking about the deal and he asked them. They said absolutely yes, without a doubt, the coupon is to be used and works. Picked up both GoW and Ico for $30 (free with my gift card) and I'll be returning my other copy back to walmart this week.

You technically don't need the coupon for yourself. The reps only scan them then throw them away anyway.

Just the receipt. Good luck to anyone else doing this. As long as the games ring up as $24.99 in the store, the @gamer coupon should work.
