Anyone seen any 80gb mgs ps3 bundles around the cities? I'm about to try and get 1 but if anyone's seen them LMK. TIA

I saw some at the Midway Target and Wal-Mart last week

I noticed that Best Buy had some last week as well.

Not to mention eBay prices too. I've stopped going to the now named Media Xchange since a good chunk of their prices are not far off from what the same product sells for new at BBY/CC/etc.

Don't expect any major finds at the Coon Rapids location at least for games. Most of the stuff is older sports titles, Disney shovelware, and that XBox music program.... and an "sealed" copy of SMB3 NES for the all low price of $99.99.

I have done well at the Coon Rapids location however in regards to used CDs/DVDs. Of course if you got the patience to browse around ignorant sheeple drinking overpriced coffee while yapping on their cellphones about their one night affairs, an fat woman laying across on the floor taking her sweet bejesus time browsing through the $1 clearance CDs, snotty brat kids running all over the place, people who need to look at every single CD and DVD on the shelft literaly, people who need to haggle over an $4.99 used CD, people upset that HPB doesn't have the latest whatever DVD/CD/etc already in used, etc etc etc.... then you might be able to find an deal or two.

For the record.... I witnessed ALL of that my last time there all within ten minutes.

Thanks for the heads up, I may pass that. Some guy at work was telling me that there was a used cd/video store called Cheapo's or something in Fridley off of 694 and Central Ave by Menards. Anyone here of it? I will try to check it out, I just am usually too tired on Mondays when I get off of work (leave home at 3:45 am and get off of work at 6pm) Not to mention on Monday some retard smashed beams on the Stillwater bridge and I had to drive to the Osceola bridge, that sucked....ing retard.

Burnsville Best Buy had a couple copies of MotoGP '07 for the 360 for $10. I didn't bite, not a huge racing game fan, especially with motorcycles. Also, if you're even the slightest bit interested in MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), Pride Bushido 9 was on sale there for $4.99. That's a must have a $4.99, one of the best events in the history of MMA in my opinion. And its a two-disc set, that's about 4 hours of great MMA action. Sorry for the off-topic rant but that's a great, great deal.

anyone looking for gh aerosmith 360 pm me and I'll sell it and meet you

Cheapo is alright... They way overcharge on anything new or that has been properly sorted, but if you dig through their new arrival bins you can find a few gems. I usually find better deals on used CDs from the Amazon Market place. On the other hand you can eat at LaCaseda as long as you are in the area (yum- expensive, but delicious mexican food).
If you are looking for some general crazyness (Not video game or electronics related) check out Ax-Man. Basically head North on central from 694. If I remember right-- It is just over the bridge in a stripmall. They are a surplus store and can have some interesting stuff.

Not an incredible deal or anything but the Apple Valley Best Buy has wired 360 Guitar Hero 2 controllers for $20. They work with Guitar Hero 3 also.

I haven't been to Cheapo in eons but have gotten a few CDs from them that are harder to find. I'll have to see how well they are doing one of these days.... can't be any worse than Media Xchange.

And yeah.... LaCaseda is great!

isn't it La Casita? Or maybe they are different Mexican restraunts

Nope, Cheapo is by La Casita.

Ditto on Demo's impressions of the Coon Rapids HPB.

And someone mentioned the Pirde Bushido 9 DVD, it is a great show if you're an MMA fan.

There are lots of the 360 VGA/Component HD cables at the Toys R Us in Blaine at $9.98, with the 20% off clearance they come down to $7.98 plus tax.

I checked out Cheapo's today and it was kind of lame. I've never been to a record store where it was so quiet. The staff did not even make notice that anyone was in the store. For music the place was alright, DVD prices where ok. I did notice that they had The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters for $27.98, no thanks. I also saw that Mexican place everyone was talking about.

Is this the one on Central? Yeah... been there too. Big store. No major find. Found better deals at Pawn American futher down on Central and 694 -- though kinda ghetto inside.

Yeah, thats the one I was at. If you really want to see ghetto, go check out the Target and Best Buy in Apple Valley. I wrote about it a few threads up.

Since everyone's been talking about my side of town I thought I'd mention, drive south on central to 40th. Star bar is there but right next door is a place called discount 70. Pretty much a thrift store but mostly target or other retailer items. Most stuff is open box or sealed. They have some games and quite a few gh bundles as well as some rock band. If willing to chance it they have 360 wireless controllers for like 15 bucks. they are by the checkout counter. Also the video games are in a case locked up. Most are so so deals. They ussually are an additional 20% off marked price. Had a new halo3 for like 25 a couple weeks ago. There are some finds there but don't get your hopes up. I grabbed rsv2 for 360 for 17 bucks 2 weeks ago.

How much are they charging for the Rock Band bundles?
