** Follow-up **
The Potomac Mills card has been mailed out to runciter, who I am sure will use it to buy winning lottery tickets, win millions of $, and give all of the money to me.
[quote name='elprincipe']Well, there's Starland (
www.estarland.com) with two N.VA locations, Annandale and way off Route 28 I think is the other one. There's also Pandora's Cube in Annandale/Springfield, although I don't recommend them and they were nailed by the Department of Justice for selling pirated XBox games preloaded on the hard drive. Otherwise it's just the chains and random pawn/thrift shop finds as far as I know.[/QUOTE]
heh Are you serious about the DoJ thing? That's too funny. Not the ha-ha kind of funny but the you've-got-to-be-kidding kind of funny. The fact that they'd openly sell, in their publicly accessible store, pirated Xbox games is beyond comprehension.
Thx for the tip about eStarland. It looks like their only current location is in Annandale. According to their web site, the one in Centreville, which was probably the one off 28, has moved.

**** FREE $20 POTOMAC MILLS GIFT CARD ****
**************************************
********* READ BELOW!!! ****************

Now for a deal. If you are interested getting a $20 Potomac Mills gift card free, pay attention. I got a card in the mail today (a greeting type of card, not a gift card) that says if I "bring the card to the Customer Service desk located at the main mall entrance during mall hours, until November 20, 2005" then I will receive a $20 Potomac Mills gift card. My name and address are not on the card anywhere and I don't shop down there since it's an hour away from me, so I don't know how I got the card. I'll send the card to a CAG on the following conditions:
1 - You have previously posted in *this nova thread*. So posting in this regional forum ain't enough. You have to have already posted in this thread prior to my posting of this message. Why? If you've already posted here that likely means you actually live in the area and won't just try to sell the card on ebay.
2 - You understand that I'm not responsible for the USPS mail. This isn't an auction or trade or anything, so don't get antsy with me if the USPS doesn't deliver the card in time or loses it.
3 - I can't guarantee that the Potomac Mills shopping center will still have cards left when you go to claim yours (this is one of the reasons why I'm not selling it). The card says "Limit one free gift card per customer. Offer valid until November 20, 2005, while supplies last." So if they run out of cards before you go to claim yours, it ain't my fault.
4 - I can't tell you what you have to do with the card since it's a free world, but I do ask that you at least buy something with it and don't just sell the card to someone else. I'm trying to help out a fellow CAG by giving this away, so the least you can do is buy something with it, preferably a game that's already discounted.
5 - You have to reply **in this thread** stating you want the card, and then PM me with your name and mailing address (you have to live in northern Virginia). The first person who replies to this thread saying the want the card will get it. I only have *one* of these things so I only have one to give away. If you want to use a parent's work address, that's cool.
Disclaimers: I'm not a stalker. I'm a 36-year-old female gamer who works full time and likes games. That's all. I don't want your phone number, nor will I drive to your home.
I also won't be putting my return address on the envelope but I will PM you after I mail it out so you have a reasonable idea when to expect it.
