Ugh. New pair of scanners in my town. Looks like a couple...brand new iPhone scanners and all. Pretty blatant, too...not even trying to be low-key. They might be competition, if they ever learn what to scan...I saw the guy scanning trade paperbacks that would never sell for more than $1. I...

Found a Sony Hi-8 camcorder at GW today for $7. Took it home, charged it, everything works. Should flip for $100 or so...which I'll probably go back and spend there again. :D NOTHING gaming-wise worth buying at my Goodwill, it would seem. Saw a GBA once with two games for $30, and I see a...

SaME. Not showing up.

I doubt that's the case with my local BB. NOBODY ever snags the DOTDs there, since I always seem to see them in stock. I'll run by tomorrow, as I know they've got a nice big stack of Limiteds in stock. Worst case scenario...I return the copy I just bought online when it gets here.

The guys at my local GS were unaware of the bundle, but I had them run it through the system and it automatically rang up. So, if anyone's GS tries to refuse it or send you online...just have them ring it through.

My email was for Uncharted 3, too. Assuming that different PowerUp members got different emails based on their purchase history...are we assuming the offer is valid for all?

Grabbed an old BB rental copy of Castlevania: SoTN for $1 recently...it's not in great shape, but for buck, it was worth it. At the same store, I grabbed a stack of GC games for $1 each...Super Monkey Ball 2, two of the Lord of the Rings games, Wave Race, and MK: Deception. Also picked up a...

My local Wal Mart is actively refusing to clearance ANY of their games. According to the employee..."We don't want to lose any money." Translation? "I'll run the price change RIGHT before I buy it all on payday." Walmart - STILL a joke.

Picked up copies of Dragonball: Ultimate Battle 22 and Star Ocean: The Second Story (both PSX) for $1 each, and a PAL import copy of Worms for $3. Looked around for a PAL PSX, but the only one there was an old-style NTSC.

I have an inside at that store (well, I do NOW) who told me that everything was gone about two minutes after she started marking down the section. El Hoardos swooped in and picked it clean. Had them run stock checks on a few things today...they're showing quantity on a few but no one seems to...

To whoever had said Grafton, WI had nothing...you must have missed out on all the stuff someone stashed behind the sale-priced games. Picked up two copies of Perfect Dark Zero and Glory of Heracles, as well as LocoRoco 2...left a bunch of stuff from $4.99 to $10.49 still on the shelf.

I'm hoping that I can hold out until it converts to used...two of the three local GS have multiple copies...and they've been there a while.

A local thrift store has an "Annex Store" in the back, with all the "junk" that they don't want cluttering up the nicer store. THIS is where the true finds are. One trip...late in 2011 (right before Xmas) netted: Megaman Legends Megaman Legends 2 Megaman X5 and Spiderman 2: Enter Electro...

Rounding my prices off to make calculations easier. Also, I started the year with $50 in GS Gift Cards due to a customer service incident in one of their stores...will note when credit is used. January: TOTAL JANUARY: $190.50 Cash, $61 trade credit. February: :ps3: NCAA Football 10 - $5...
