CAGiversary!
Hey guys thought it would be a good idea to give us all the opportunity to brag about what items we got, and how much we got it for. It doesn't even have to be video game related (I'm not here to judge). Since this is being typed pre-boxing day the only deals I've gotten are:

2 2gig SD cards-$25
Dead Head Fred (PSP)-$10
Mega Man Star Force: Leo (DS)-$15
All Pro Football 2k7 (PS3)-$6.99

Not much but I will update tomorrow after shopping/savings commence.

all from RV.
 
Oh man I wish I could find FE (either) for $15 each, nice haul. :(

So far I only got a 4gb SD Card for $25 at NCIX, probably some more random stuff tomorrow..not sure about games right now.
 
Just got back from F Shop
Got my sister a LG 80 Gb dvd recorder for 100$ off and myself a pair of 60$ headphones for 19.99. Plus I had a 5$ off giftcard from the grand opening so I got 5$ off too. Good times.
 
Stores are opening at 1 here so im waiting patiently, heading to best buy soon, searching for deals on the web.
 
Well I got:

Best Buy

Call of Duty 4 (360) - $39.99
Rainbow Six: Vegas (360) - $19.99
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (PS3) - $59.99 (not a deal, but wanted it anyways)
Motorola H350 Bluetooth Headset (for PS3) - $24.99

Futureshop

Word of Warcraft Battle Chest (PC) - $19.99
Ratatouille Blu-ray Movie - $24.99

This was technically between me and my brother... he got everything at futureshop (except Ratatouille... everyone says it's so amazing, i had to check it out and at $25... you can't go wrong).

So in total... we both spent $410: $170 (saved $77) for me and $240 (saved $105) for him... + taxes >_<

I wasn't going to spend a penny on boxing day the other day, believe it or not... but I always told myself I would buy Rainbow six when it was cheap and COD4 if it hits forty or so... and they both did it! Then the headset and blu-ray came after my friend told me to get both so we could chat up on my new ps3 haha... now i just need a job to keep going =P
 
I snagged RE4 for Wii with my remaining credit and added like a loonie out of my pocket to cover taxes. The only thing I really wanted to be honest.
 
TMNT (360) - $9.99
Stuntman (360) - $9.99
Ratatouille (DVD) - $19.99

Nothing special, but a couple of things I was looking for.

I bought seasons 7 & 9 for the Boxing Day price at Walmart, they rung it up for me since the flyer is so vague. It says something like TV box sets, no specifics. Just try, you may get away with it like I did.

$15 - Energizer Home/Car Recharger w/ 4 AA batteries (for wireless GH3 guitar and mouse i just bought)

EB Games:

$15 - God of War 2 (yes number 2). at my local eb there was a mistake where God of War 1 sticker was stuck onto number 2.
$20.40 - Call of Duty 4 (PC). got it from my cuzin who works at the eb in his area, so i got the trade in value price.

The guitar is by The Ant Commandos, I think the guitar is called guitar commando or something. Can't say how it works, I don't have a GH game yet. It feels like $20 worth

BTW, EB has a wireless one for $40, looks nicer too

How can you complain about the colour when it is a homage to the rocking Dan Avatar you have?

As for the loot.

Hit RV at 10:30 am and they just wheeled out a bunch of used game right after I got there. I snagged:
Skate (360)
Beautiful Katamarcy (360)
Forza 2 (360)
contra 4 (DS)
Pheonix wright: trials and tribulations (DS)
Front mission (DS)

All on 2 for 30.

I was in the mall and got 2 Oilers Jerseys (RBK) for 149.99 (2 for 1)

Got Wh40k:squad command (DS) for 30. Doubt this is a deal, but I can't find it anywhere.

Got fuck all.
Went to EB Games at the Oshawa Centre looking for either Ratchet & Clank or Assassin's Creed for PS3 and couldn't get EITHER. :bomb:
 
I got myself:
Best Buy: Assassin's Creed PS3 (39.99)
EB Games: NHL 08 PS3 (49.99)
Wal-Mart: Formula One Championship Edition PS3 (19.99)

In retrospect, I wish I found Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 and Rainbow Six Vegas to purchase. I might have found them, but I chose not to buy them. Sucks for me.
 
Nothing gained, losses include:

Internet access
Cheapassgamer: Canada region
Awesome sales

And the worst part, I have to be back out of town in about 5 minutes and back to the same boring situation.

:(
 
Nothing for me, but I did order $600+ of computer parts from ncix. I'm building a budget gaming rig for a kid I know.
 
Didn't get anything game related =/
Got 2GB Ultra II Sandisk SD card from Best Buy - $20
8x AA Eneloop Rechargeable batteries from NCIX - $20

So spent $40 =/

I had a busy day:

So once again, more games that I can keep up with! All the EBGames I stopped at were crazy busy. I didn't go until 10 and they still had the games I wanted so I was happy for that.

thx, I just cheked out the site.
i think bestbuy had a similar if not the same guitar walmart is currently offering a couple months back. the buttons were spongy =s.
 
Nothing much, Rogers was disappointing, no good PPV 2/30. Maybe another day. I did grab with a giftcard I got for Christmas:

Moto GP 07
Hot Wheels: Beat That!
Harry Potter OOTP
Project Sylpheed

All 360, from the 2/$30 clearance bin, and

Open Season
F4 ROTSS

both 360, for $9.99 BOGO. Mainly for a trade 4 at Blockbuster as I've already finished both of them. :)
 
how are people getting the zellers wii games at 25? my store had 35.
walmart had sonic ps3 and full auto 2 10$. splinter cell wii too.
 
They tried to do $35 for Strikers but I said "Hey isn't is $25?" And the guy just changed it, didn't even answer my question. Pretty sneaky. It was a correction notice, the Wii games advertised are $25 instead of $35, can't remember where I read the info (probably RFD...).
 
I got Forza 2 CE in the RV 2/$30 clearance game deal.

Others: Darkness, GRAW 2 for $20 each.

My movie and box set haul was way better:
Carnivale both seasons @ $19.99/each
Earth to Moon $24.99
Indiana Jones trilogy $29.99
Ong Back $5
BSG Miniseries $6.99 (was 2/$10 but I could not find another flick I wanted)

And an APC 390 watt battery backup for $39.99
 
stopped by a RV:
360 games:
-mass effect
-sonata RPG game (can't remember the title)

ps3:
-heavenly sword
-resistance
