Over the last day and a half I conducted a small expert with the BLOCKBUSTER stores in TORONTO.
I made a list of various popular games(both new and old) for all 3 systems and some blu-rays, to see what would be left over for Monday which many think will be the start of the new 40% discount stage. Almost all of the new release games from the 3 systems are gone with the exception of some still out on rental.(Resistance 3, Gran turismo, Catherine, Super Mario brothers games, bodycount, assassin creed revelations + 30 other titles).
A lot of Blu-rays are still left and still tons of even new release dvds.
Those that are waiting for 50%-70% will lose out because it seems panic buying has set in and people have bought most of the most popular stuff already. If anything is left for the 40% sale you can be sure they will be gone by weeks end before it reaches 50%. Stuff will be flying off the shelves tommorrow if it's 40% off so try to get there as soon as you can if you want deals.
Here's a break down of prices ONCE the 40% off discount is in effect.
