Edit by Io - The most recent (1/26) drops are in the very beginning of the second post, so look there first!

------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT -- Feb 4th
Things have changed drastically since I started this thread and I've gone from a quality control monitoring job with other duties thrown in to monitoring double the amount plus the work of others. Bascially, I now do the job of three comparing the company now to that of a year ago thanks to layoffs and not hiring to replce people leaving. Plus I generally work 6 days a week and often ten hours with no break. I'd quit, but I have a hunch that our department will be hubbed in another city around July and I might as well hang in for the layoff package. Basically, this means I have zero time for internet and thread managing the way it should be done. My trade list and pm box fall by the wayside and I hardly email or even check my facebook/myspace. I didn't even find time to manage my fantasy football team and will completely forego baseball.

I know IO is busy enough as it is with a couple of threads, but if anyone wants to take over this thread and start a new one, please do so. Of course, I should have all the time in the world to keep it up to date if you want to wait unitl around July.

I got tired of going to TRU for the most recent clearance drops only to find more here on CAG from one of the three threads after I got back from the store. So I've compiled a list from the posts of Starving Gamer, Benboxer, life.exe, cmosfm, Kevzik's pics of lists at his store, the lists I saw at local TRUs and the many posts of awesome CAGs in those threads. I am by no means associated with TRU and I don't have inside information on upcoming drops, but I wanted to post a consolidated list to help other CAGs. As new drops occur Benboxer, Starving Gamer and anyone else is welcome to post new lists here and/or in seperate threads for more attention for the new items and I'll update the OP for total lists. Please keep in mind that some of these games are YMMV on price and as with all ongoing clearances availability is always YMMV as well. Most 9.90, 5.00 and 3.00 games are from the recent drop of a couple weeks ago. Thanks again for everyone's contributions and especially those early lists. I wanted to get this up and running and will do some tidying to the list as necessary. I'm not familiar with every game on the list so feel free to post or pm inconsistencies in titles!

NEW PLEASE READ SEE POST #2 FOR LATEST DROPS
A few things about pricing. All of the last round of drops are 9.90, 5.00, or 3.00. A lot of the 9.90 games were 19.98 before, most of the 5.00 were 9.98 and most of the 3.00 were 5.00. So if you see a game that is 19.98, chances are it may drop to 9.90 next drop which will probably be in a few months. As with any clearance a lot of these games may have been sold out at your store before they were even clearanced and now that the latest drop has been at least a month those games may be hard to find now, too. I do still see several 19.98 some 9.90 and some 5 & 3 games in this area. Don't forget to check the glass case and you can ask if a game is in back as sometimes this is the case.

Don't forget to post your trade wishes and wants in the Official TRU Trading Thread: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=121672

READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE CHECKING THE LIST
Games in blue are from the latest drop, most of which were on clearance already at higher price points.
Games in green are VERY RARE games from the latest drop that were originally shipped to stores in VERY LIMITED quantities when the game was released and only a very few CAGs have found these.
Games in Yellow are have been widely reported as YMMV as pertains to price point.
Games in Orange are new reports that are awaiting confirmation

Does anyone know how clearance games work when a store is closing. They had Nascar 08 for $40 and 25% off all video games. So will it take off 25% of $40 or $5?
 
I ended up with FFT, PW3, Saints Row (for a fellow CAG), and not 1-2 or 3 but 4 GHIII's for PC. (1 for me 2 for friends and 1 for boss that let me leave work on the clock and go buy his copy).

No dice with Fire Emblem.
 
picked up FE and BW. both rang up at 24.98. oh well. i have to go back on sunday and do the buy 2 get 1 free, so i'll just return them then.
 
Man, I had completely forgot the buy 2 get 1 free this sunday, and I went and bought Megaman ZX Advent and a GBA 9.99 2 pack yesterday. Guess I'll return them and then pick a free game on sunday!
 
[quote name='cheapbastard']Something I didnt see posted was

My French Coach DS $9.98[/quote]

argh... gotta go back. i wanna check this out. thanks!
 
pardon my asking...but is there a list of all the recent clearance games somewhere? i looked in the first couple threads and no luck and it's a bit difficult to search for "clearance games" and not get more than 1000 results...

Bottom of page 93 and a couple more adds a few pages later

When our store recently closed they stopped honoring national promotions while they were closing.
 
So can we take our loot back in Sunday and apply the buy 2 get 1 sale to these, or do the clearance prices expire or exclude the deal altogether?

Clearance prices never expire but watch out, only the cheapest games will be free. If you have 3 10's and 3 5's, you will only get 2 5's for free instead of 1 10 and 1 5. Make sure you think about that when buying the games, use multiple transactions or make more than one visit.
 
Royal Palm Beach , Florida TRU reporting , and as usual my location doesn't have a whole lot for clearance. Heres what I found or was available:
:wii:Geometry Wars : Galaxies
:wii:Fire Emblem : Radiant Dawn
:psp:Bust-a-Move Deluxe
:psp:Parappa the Rapper
:ds:Elite Beat Agents
:ps2:Marc Ekko : Getting Up
:ps2:The Getaway : Black Monday
:ps2:Any of the stand-alone Buzz Quiz Games (Hollywood , Mega Quiz , Jungle or Robo Jam)

Geometry Wars was nice but the rest didn't help me out any. Didn't have any of the stuff that I really wanted.

That is not true. TRU's systems are smart enough to group games together in 3's automatically. So in this instance you will get 1 $10 & 1 $5 game for free even if it's done on the same transaction.

That's pretty sweet, thanks for the clarification. Most places do it as the cheapest ones are free.
 
That's good to know since during B2G1 free sales, I usually tried to do seperate transactions if I was buying games at different price points (3 $10 games, 3 $5 games etc.)
 
[quote name='Nohbdy']Is anyone getting FF3, PW3, or Megaman ZX 2?[/QUOTE]

Bumping for potential business opportunity. ;-;
 
Is there a rule or something against bumping a thread to request someone to get something? I distinctly remember making a post.
 
Woburn, MA store:

PSP: Snagged a Castlvania for $9.98, saw several Parappa's for $5, Bust a Moves, too - same price.
Geometry Wars and Crash of the Titans for Wii - $9.98 several copies
Juiced 2 for 360, 9.98 three copies
Insecticide and Elements of Destruction for DS - 9.98 several copies
 
Ran into 2 Old 12 Month Vision Live bundles and 1 3 month bundle at my TRU. Guess how much . . .

$59.99 and $29.99 respectively. Damn it!
 
How much? ...lol
httpproactolw-20
 
I snagged a few games.

Insecticide $10
Condemned $5
RE:UC $25

I really didn't get a chance to look around, because the cashier was lurking over my should the entire time. I assume he was just ready to close his section since it was about an hour before close. I don't know. I might go back tomorrow for another pass.

tell him, "don't you have some re-shop you could be doing right now?"
 
Update time... nothing at my store going down video game wise, but I figure I might as well update with something R-Zone related... Epson printers are going down to clearance on 10/13. If your store has any of the old printers left over from last year, they will go down.

I believe these are the correct models with current price and the 10/13 clearance price.

195963 RX595 $149.99 - $49.98
216270 CX7400 $69.99 - $19.98

There was also a third printer that was in the $99.99 range but my store is out of stock, but I'm pretty sure that would be included in this drop as well.

The new models TRU is starting to carry are the NX200/400, so if you see those, they will be regular price.

TRU does it that way too.

I always buy in separate transactions for different cost game groups.

Thanks for the update. I saw the $100 printer when I went there (and found next to nothing for clearance stuff), so I can check on the 13th what price they drop to. Since the $70 is dropping to $20, I bet the $100 will drop to $30-$40, still too rich for my blood.

i doubt any store will drop games next week with the buy 2 get 1 freedeal
 
Tonight I picked up the following at the Columbia, MD TRU:
iconxbox360.gif
Frenzy 2 - $5.00
iconxbox360.gif
Stranglehold - $5.00
iconxbox360.gif
Perfect Dark Zero: Limited Edition - $5.00

I also ran into an old 3-month XBL bundle but it rang up for $29.99
 
Viva Pinanta Party Animals or Juiced 2 (both 360)?

Which do you guys prefer? I went with Viva Pinanata, but wasn't too sure... I just had to get something to qualify for next week's deal.
 
I went to one of the TRUs in my area and didn't find anything that I wanted. One of the store did me a favor and put all the clearance games in a bin just outside the "R" zone. :bomb: The only game worth mentioning that I saw was Viva Pinata (already picked up a copy from Target for $7.48). Everything else was crap. I have two more TRUs to check. Hopefully, I can find PW3 and NFS but I doubt it. I didn't have time to go until today. :cry:

Damn, I didn't know they made a Martin Luther King game for the DS. What kind of game is it? A side scrolling beat-em up? One-on-One fighting?

And the 2K8 makes me wonder, was there a MLK 2K7? How far back do the Martin Luther King games go?

:whistle2:k



Seriously though, nice find on the :gba: Spyro, wish I could find one for myself

I doubt you will find either of those unfotunately. I went to 2 TRU's on Monday morning and neither had those games, not even a shelf spot for them. Same thing with a 3rd TRU I checked yesterday.
 
I stopped today and picked up:

:psp:Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles - $9.98
:360:Crash of the Titans - $9.98
:360:Juiced 2 - $9.98

I wish i had know they are starting a b2g1 tomorrow but o well.

Mike
