Umm...you know it'll be the cheapest game free, right? So, with the ones you mentioned, Kid Icarus would end up being your free game.

[mrclutch]

Interesting. Hopefully they will have something on sale to go with this.

[crzyboy88]

Would be nice for Amazon to match so that I can burn some credit. Sadly, I highly doubt it would happen. Thanks, OP!

Yeah, totally forgot about that, I normally go for games that are $59.99 so I forgot that the cheapest is the free one.

Do the games on clearance count towards this deal? Like if there are 3 games for $10 with the red clearance sticker on them, will they count, or is it just for the MSRP games?

As long as I've paid attention to target B2G1 (the past two years) clearance has never been included.

[Rollett]

After what happened with the Vita B2G1 Free sale... i don't know if i would trust anything Target says in their adds lol.

[Vinyl]

Haven't been to my Target in a while. Hopefully I can find some cheap games. Thanks for the heads up!

I just read the front, it says "Games that are normally $14.99-$59.99" Chances are it might not happen. I have done B2G1 deals before were only a select few games qualify, I ask the guy to rung up my selection and see if this game qualifies and it turns out it does, I would at least try and give it a go.

What happen? I bough my Vita from Target and took advantage of there B2G1 deal on the vita games, didn't run into any issues.

[XenoNinjaX]

is tales of graces F available at target in-store?

[Darkfox76]

is tales of graces F available at target in-store?

Just checked Target for in-store availability, Tales of Graces f is not available in-store and online only.

[mattcube64]

Wow, Tales of the Abyss is sold in stores, but is sold out at every single Target store in the area, and every single one near my school :(

[confoosious]

in the past hasn't target limited their b2g1 to select games?

It depends if the deal says "selection limited."



thanks for the headsup OP. I must resist if I can.

[Kurosaki-san]

Tales & the lastest Naurto games isn't being carried in stores! Also the buy 2 get 1 free may work on clearance. It's has before.... Also there's a coupon in the ad to get 15% iTunes cards. Xbox 4gb kinect bundle is also on sale for $249 & comes with a 50GC. The 160GB ps3 system comes with the Sport championship move kit (packaged sperately) free. 20% off all ps3 accessories and theres a coupon to get $20 off a sky lander starter kit. 3ds systems are 145.

Usually I do see a few days later on Amazon follow suit with their B2G1 but with only the current popular selling games (at mostly full price).

[BrolyB593]

Guess I will not be taking advantage of this sale then!

[greenwolfe7]

Ill be taking advantage of this my target does have tales in stock also don't know why anyone elses doesn't... odd but I plan on getting RE, ME3, and Ninja Gaiden 3. Ill probably pm these at best buy also to earn rewards credit. Ive never had any issue pming these sales at BBY in the past for anyone looking for some specific games not carried by target.

[dominator]

Hmm, may have to check my store out on once this goes live.

I wonder if that 20% off will work on the 2 80$ ps move little big planet 2 bundles my target has... If so that along with the fact my target still has several LE copies of RE... and if thats included in the b2g1... could be a heck of a sale...

[Tygamr]

Hmmm... May have to take advantage of this deal. Want to grab FF XIII-2 but I still need to beat XIII- not stuck, just lost all desire to play it halfway through Gran Pulse, which I find funny, because I enjoyed the game leading up to that point, and it's typically regarded as the best section of the game compared to the other sections. Also want... A crap load of other games- I'm kind of behind right now (but I also don't need a huge backlog either).

[MKScorpion]

In for Portal 2, Halo Anniversary and Metal Gear Solid: HD Collection

[Gosha]

I should hold out on getting Kid Icarus until this happens. Kid Icarus, Silent Hill HD.... and what else? Maybe I should just get 2 Kid Icarus copies and resell the second one. I'd imagine that game would resell close to MSRP.

[mattcube64]

Anybody know at what point the website's in-store inventory tracker claims "out-of-stock." We know that Best Buy says OOS when there are less than three copies of a particular game in their store. Does Target do something similar?

Might explain why EVERY store is out of Tales of the Abyss if they happened to just get a few copies.

Thanks! I'll check my local stores tomorrow.

kid icarus x 3 = $80 + tax.. say $84

by the time you resell it, it'd be $30 after fees at most.

so you'd be paying $24 + for kid icarus.

That's if you could sell it for $37 on ebay.

I have kid icarus pre-ordered from amazon, which gives you the stand and the download code.
