KZ3 is $5 on clearance kmart
Use TRU b1g1 50% off for the same deals
Use the $10 off msrp coupons at bb to get the $10 bf prices anytime
And you guys are so late on ico/sotc these were $15-$20 via @gamer coupons maybe even 2 yrs ago with the same tivs

:speaktothehand:

Kmart clearance is YMMV so no, not everyone will be able to get it for that price.

I'm sure we all would love to go to Toysrus and do that, but most of us like our BestBuy credit to be used up and points to be earned.

Not everyone has or even knows about that coupon. You would think if everyone did it would be at front and center with all BB deals.

Not everyone has @Gamer. Actually referencing a deal from two years ago.

If you were trying to make people feel bad you failed.

son of a ...I bought All Stars for $20 thinking it was a sale and not a price drop. Damnit! BB doesnt have 30 day price adjustment for non-Silver anymore right?

Nope, you have 15 days from point of sale to return an item or get a price adjustment if Best Buy lowers the price on that item.

Why would someone feel bad period over a deal site really I'll give most cagers more credit than that?
KZ3 is quite old in terms of games even at $5 in the open I've seen quite my share in kmarts in 3 states. Also, with little tiv flippers wouldn't clear stock. Worse case get it used at gs it's $10 before any discounts.
Your telling me about BB credit me lol I'd match the TRU deal not shop there for it and you don't get pts on purchases made with credit.
And yes the coupon has been mentioned before a thread for was made & deleted less than 2 months ago the scans were posted just like the gs b-day coupon.
If u asked some cag'ers could get u a copy of KZ3 for less that $10 shipped along with the coupons.

And trust me I was on the front lines telling people to subscribe for @gamer for months & months & months even the $10 ssx or b:ac was met with resistance over a $5 mag/$15 sub.
My point is these deals or better are available quite regularly

they don't say here's a coupon most of the time it's a skit
Would u like to save $25? Or when looking at big ticket items it's an instant $25 off type deal. Most people just say no just like if they ask if u want the warranty but it pays to ask/listen all the time.

Not in this case. When they process the application you take a hard hit to credit. It's not a soft check. $10 off a Best Buy item isn't worth the lowered credit score.

Does anyone know if these copies of Twisted Metal come with the digital copy of Twisted Metal: Black or was that like a first-print run kind of thing?
Click to expand...
1st print run only. At this point it's nearly impossible to find those.
That said, Twisted Metal was, next to Aliens CM/Duke Nukem Forever/Metroid Other M, the WORST game I've played this gen. The single player was really bad, but that was nothing compared to the shitty netcode for online play, which by comparision makes WiiU look like fucking Steam. The basic options are there but nothing works 90% of the time, do a quick Google search and you can see mountains of complaints about how broken the online is. And, despite promised from the devs, it was never fixed.

The only way I can even begin to recommend the turd that is Twisted Metal on PS3 is if you are planning to play it solely on local multiplayer. But don't expect a pick up and play experience there; the controls are very fucked up, with so much crap going on that they were forced to use the motion controls of the 6axis for some things. Even without that the controls still blow with design decisions that boggle the mind (having to double tap to reverse? REALLY?) If you have several friends that are massive TM fanboys and will take the time to learn the controls, you may get some mileage out of it. Otherwise I wouldn't even reccomend this turd as a free download; it's just not worth the frustration trying to make it work. A t $15 it's definately a pass.
The rest of this list looks great, but my backlog is huge. I'm mulling over PAS and Ico/SotC, I've had both on my wishlist for awhile now. PAS would be a lot more tempting if I had a Vita.........

Am I better off getting and playing through the Sly trilogy before Sly 4? I wish those trilogy/collections would drop from $20 every once in a while. I've been wanting to pick up the Jak and Daxter collection along with the Sly Collection. I never had a PS2.
Click to expand...
Believe it or not, Gamestop of all places had the Jak & Daxter trilogy on PS3 on sale for $10 new a few months back. No limited coupon/PUR membership required. Unfortanutely my copy ended up being open/gutted despite being "new" but for $10 I was willing to let it pass this time. Wait for it and I imagine it'll drop again.

Phew, I'm finally getting InFamous 2.
Click to expand...
Not to be "that guy" but Infamous 2 has been cheaper several times before IIRC. I know I got it at BB over a year ago for $10 new, and I think it's been free on PS+ forever now. I've never seen the Infamous collection on sale myself, but apparently Gaestop had it for $20 awhile back for PUR members.

It was Ico/SotC or GoW Origins IIRC. I tried to take advantage of this sale and everywhere I went employees/managers insisted that the coupons would not stack with the sale prices, so I had to walk out empty handed. I eventually bit on the GoW collection for like $25 but I've been waiting for a good sale on Ico/SotC ever since. I guess my only question is, if I wait a few more months, is there a good chance it'll hit $10 or less before Xmas? I'm tempted to just jump on it now but between Gamestop's sales and the recent sale on Ni No Kuni I've exhausted all my RZ coupons and still spent over $50 on games this past month. I really can't decide...

Exactly, people always forget about this and I fell for it during my college days to get some free crap. Unless you are going to use the card then I wouldn't apply for it, especially not for a measly $25.

Thanks to the OP. I purchased both PSASBR and Sly for the cross buy and also double trophies. I also grabbed a $10, $20, and $50 PSN card with the percentage off. It is 5% off the $10.00 7.5% off the $20.00 and 10% off the $50.00

There for with a $10.00 reward zone cert it cost me $94.60 with tax for 2 PS3 games, 2 Vita games, and $80.00 in PSN credit.

That was one hell of a deal.

It will be increased if you are approved because your rotating cards increased, so as long as you have excellent credit, which i assume savvy CAGs do, it's okay.

I've missed all sales for it up until now and don't download games free from Plus so this was the first time I've seen the game for less than it's eBay price in a store.

All I meant was that maybe you could find it cheaper than $15 sometime down the line, but if it's ebaying for more than $15 then maybe that is a good price to jump on if it doesn't come down for the holidays. Between all the Infamous 2 sales, the Infamous collection, and it being free on PS+ for forever, I'm really surprised it's going for that much online.

Correct the 1st sale was right when the started letting the coupons stack, it was a coupon with 2 games(either or) on it & finding stock was an issue as well. The infamous "They Stack!! @gamer thread title.

You guys are missing the point with the coupons, think of it like the GS B-day coupon w/o an expiration date.

Every $30 GH title is $5 which is $10 cheaper than the deals here but you would have the game 1-3 yrs ago

An @gamer yr sub cost the same as a single issue

$25 off itunes cards, PSN cards, XBL cards, PS+

Every $60 game is $35 on day 1 & all the promos stack(not bundled deals though)

Every $40 vita/3DS game is $15 on day 1(all those mario titles $15)

All the $30 DVD/BluRay sets are $5

As for the credit issue

say I buy 50 copies of GTA5 & sell them for $50 that's $1855 turned into $2500 in 1 month do this for some of the top next gen titles. You can also sell the in demand 3DS titles for $25 each.

Take $25 off the current price dropped 32GB PS vita memory card =$55

Take $25 off any system

That's much more than a measly $25 right & the above is way more the some free crap trust me I always think big picture. The point is these can readily be had at the same prices or cheaper.

edit:also the TW/DS3 bundle is $45

Simple u can use the coupons over & over just make copies
$25 off $60 games on day 1 makes them $35
$40 Vita/3DS games are $15 on day 1
If you want the $30 Greatest hits titles they`re $5
You no longer need to wait to get BF prices
 
If you apply for a BB credit card you get the $25 off if your approved $10 off if denied. Most of the time a store rep will be standing at the entrance. They will ask u if you wanna save $25.

Oh ok, no thanks thing. I already have a credit card so this isnt something anyone can do.

Also, abusing something like that seems like a great way to get banned,

 
Every body !!
Go to bestbuy and price match the toys r us deal of buy one get one 40% off.
I Don't know if anybody else mentioned it because I did not read all the posts.
Now I know a lot of best buys don't PM BOGO deals or Percentage deals, but every best buy I go to does it with out a problem.
It's worth a shot. Instead of buyi g two for $30 , get 2 for about $25.
 
I`d assume most people got the coupons the same way they got the GS b-day coupon not by actually applying for credit. Each store has flexability when it comes to promo coupons like these so it`s actually not that hard to justify getting multiple discounts. Referrals for big ticket items, warranties, phones...I recieved ten 10% off coupons at one time b/c I was shopping with a group of people who all did the same promo b/c I had done it.
 
There was a cag thread for it less than 2 months ago got nuked when the scans were posted. You should ask your store about the promo coupons they offer I believe at the front of the store there`s pics of stores reps the ''customer relations/specialists'' is generally the one to see. If they don`t have a current promo request that they look into them.
 
That`s not the only reason a store can use the coupon promo. Some will use them to complete with other stores that are offering a better deal on an item that may net lots of warranties for the store. But if your BB isn`t doing anytype make them aware & it could change.

If Best Buy is stupid enough to give out a $25 coupon on copy paper to anybody with shitty enough credit to be denied their card, they deserve to be scammed a little. It's not something I would do, the only time I print and use coupons multiple times is when I get them in an email (obviously those are meant to be used ad infinium, and are usually little more than a few bucks off at a fast food place), but I don't understand why they'd do this. Really, why give out a $25 coupon vs a $25 gift card, or a $20 + $5 RZ cert? I've heard this "deal" mentioned once or twice before, but something seems off about it. They aren't stupid, they know people will take advantage if you let them, I guess they just REALLY want people to get that stupid card enough so that they'll tolerate this abuse?

Unfortanutely, I've already recieved, and subsequently cancelled, their CC years ago. I had bought a laptop and some software thought I'd paid it off, yet somehow didn't. Several months passed before anybody bothered to send me a letter and I never once recieved a phonecall, but that sure as hell didn't stop them from tacking on a bunch of late fees that totaled to well above what was left on the balance. Something to keep in mind if you do get this card.

I have said this on more than one occasion. Enuf gets an A+ for effort....I'm just never quite sure what his effort is meant to achieve.

He's always of a positive mindset though so I applaud him for that!

Is this in store as well, or do I need Best Buy to price match with their own website? xDD

Heh, you have to PM. Every BB I have been to has a little display around the PS3 aisle that has all these games with signs/stickers all reading $19.99. And that's how they rung up. That said, you shouldn't have a problem PMing their website or doing a site to store order at all.

I did have trouble getting the store to honor the discounted PSN cards. The woman I was directed to insisted that the deal was online only and that, after purchase, I'd be emailed a code to input into PSN(which is a flat out lie). After working my way up to the head manager I FINALLY got them to honor the online price for the PSN cards, but it was a pain in the ass.

I got a few of those coupons sometime last year. The guy at the register wouldn't scan it and told me it only works if you apply for credit card. Wasted over $30 min just to "save" $10. Don't know why there's even a coupon when they could just get a manager to take the discount off after they call up the Mastercard or whomever.

Most of the cashiers I dealt with were more stunned it work on items that were "excluded". I also have the "Bestbuy values your opinion" survey paper stapled to the coupon which is how some stores give them out.
 
I cacelled a
GTA V pre-order and got PSABR and twisted metal for $24.98 shipped after back to school promo.
Not bad less then $12.50 each shipped.
