I have a very strong feeling that Tomb Raider will be around $30 in a month or so after release. They gotta keep the hype going to sell as many copies as they can. I want this badly but I have too many other games Im invested in to shell out $60 with only a $15 coup offer. If this was a $25 coup id be all over it. I can wait a month, but this game looks fantastic!

I guess ill be buying the show at k mart...the only retailer to offer any kind of deal on it besides 59.99.

Not to denounce your intentions, but my plan is to pick up my preordered copy from BBY (to get $20 in RZ points) while PMing the $15 coupon from Kmart (YMMV, I know, but I'm hoping to get a $15 discount). Then I will have paid $44.99 and gotten $20 back (essentially), so it's like I paid $24.99 on day one! If the PM doesn't work out, then I still basically got Tomb Raider for $39.99 on day one, which is just fine with me.

I really, really hope the PM works...

Josh had me going to Kmart every week, me getting a game or two and my wife doing shopping. We haven't been back in a kmart since. I totally miss Josh's work.

Hey guys, how do we know now if local kmarts get collectors edition of games and stuf w/o Josh? Like God of War Ascension Collector's edition. Who can we ask? The local store the morning it comes out? Or what happened to the stock boy or whatever his name was? Or what happened to Josh anyway? I never was able to find out.

The last few months my Kmart gets 1-2 copies of each new release game. That is all. The shelves look funny because no game has more then 1 or 2 copies at any given time and then black ops II has 30+

Just curious about something as I see several people saying they plan on buying two games and using both $15 coupons on the same game. I haven't used these coupons in about a year but my understanding of the coupons a year ago is that you could not use 2 coupons of the same value on the same item. Example: You can use a $20 and $15 coupon on a game (60-20-15=$25) but you could NOT use two $20 coupons (60-20-20=$20). Has this changed or something?

As a Silver member, even when I dont get/try for PMs on release/pickup (mostly cause I dont want to screw over the 20 reward cert), I still feel pretty good knowing I got 60 days for that sucker to drop.

You can only price match for 60 days on purchases made before April 19th and only if on sale at BB after date of purchase.

I don't know it this will apply, but the front of the ad says Get a Bonus $5 Award Card for Buying over $50 of merchandise.

It applies. I picked up MLB 2K13 and got a 5.00 gift card to go with it. The 15.00 RZC does not go in effect until the 10th so I will go get The Show from BB later on as I have like 30.00 in GC there.

Why'd you get MLB 2k13 when you're going to get The Show?

And, I think you meant $15 Gift Card, not RZC?

Absolutely had the worst shopping experience ever in my 36 years tonight at K-Mart. Went in to get Tomb Raider and The Show. Wanted to purchase them separately in order to get 2 $5 Rewards Cards. Presented my SYWR card for both transactions. No $15 coupon for either game. Went to customer service where I was told those coupons were e-mailed to me and that I should call SYWR. Got home and called, went through many menus to get to a human voice, only to be told what I already knew, that the coupons were supposed to be printed from the register.

So I sit here with 2 games I want to start playing tonight but can't because I have to return them tomorrow. I'm not re-buying them either, even if they promise the coupons. Never again.

I think I'll just wait until sub $30 price drops for both now. Sorry Sony and Square, ya'll lost a first day sale due to poor ass customer service.

Good luck with getting a $30 MLB 13 The Show before well into the season. If you're going to wait for that, then hats off to you!

so just buy it online. coupons are there too.

FYI,

I have never got an online coupon or online award card to work properly. Despite being opted in to the SYWR they just aren't sent to me even though I get the e-receipt e-mails.

To the above poster that had the problems after you enter your payment information the screen at the register will ask if you want your receipt e-mailed only, printed and e-mailed or no receipt. Make sure you always hit the "printed and e-mail" option.

Also make sure you're buying the games on a register that has the "catalina" machine (i.e. the one that prints out the coupons). Some registers don't have them.

Because I have both consoles and most of my friends get 2K and only 1 of my friends get both so that is why. Well the $15 you get for being the reward zone customer that printsnon the receipt, plus u get a $5 GC on top of that. I wind up getting The Show from BB anyways.

Chk ur rewards account. Just got $5 today...they gave me $3 a week ago too. I love it! They keep sending me free money! Must of got atleast $50-75 so far.

Mine says redeem at sears. Guess that means I cant use it at Kmart?
