They only kinda have. Theyre doing different parts of the ad every week of November to avoid huge crowds, and a lot of the stuff is online only at least to start. Theyve only posted 2 weeks of it so far.

For anyone looking for that 14 inch HP laptop, Brickseek no longer lets you search for it as they basically say theyve seen wildly inaccurate information on inventory levels, which makes sense. 

The laptop is an HP 14 inch that was Walmart's "Special Buy" exclusive model, but has been phased out. Most stores show it at 184.  Ryzen 3 3200U 4gb DDR4 2400 RAM (2 slots, upgradable to 32gb, definitely want to add 2 sticks since the CPU is Ryzen) 128gb Sata M.2 SSD I have been trying...

Brickseek has been incredibly WRONG with the 14 inch HP laptop. I have seen stores show 6+ on brickseek have only the display model. Brickseek say they have 3-4 and they have ZERO. Even show 0 on another stock tracker. So they likely arent lying to you. As a former retail employee, most of them...

Whats weird is I tried for like 30 minutes to find that listing he bought them from. Current or sold listings. Either it was from a LONG time ago, or it never existed.

Starting the 16th, the 5 dollar monthly certs will work on Pre-Owned. It didnt before this because they didnt want people to double dip 10% discount and the free cert.

Last day for pre-existing Pros to get their 10% off is the 16th. Same for the remaining elite's it seems. Some elite members are receiving emails about being able to call CS and receive refunds for their memberships, but cannot confirm the entire email. After that itll just be the 5 dollar...

Gamestops untill this year would just close without a closing sale and store managers from nearby stores would come in and transfer out everything to other stores via UPS. They did change that with the recent closings, and only 82 stores in the US are closing now. 200 will total before the end...

GameStop is closing about 82 stores in the US. So this is extreme YMMV.

The website's price match policy says any store will price match their app/website as long as its sold and shipped by walmart.

While i'd love to see that, that seems fishy to me personally. Switch lite's i'd bet wont be on sale. They're too new. Unless Walmart is the one thats taking the hit and not Nintendo doing the discounting. If this IS real, the picture of the switch box is the new model, not the old one. This...

The amount of people being proud of return fraud and the lengths people will go to, is just stupid. We are adults, act like it. Don't be children, if you're purchasing something, dont try to "get one over" on the store, and either return it if you dont want it, or keep it. Don't swap innards or...

Gamestop doesn't pressure employees like this at a corporate level. Employees who act like what you experienced are shit employees, or have a shit DM who's thinking and ways are antiquated. But unfortunately, the internet thinks every single store is like this, so it becomes self fulfilling...

Well I mean I was an employee for 3 years, and was at the time of that release, and that was the only time they said that to stores about a non collectors edition, so, going to have to say thats not "about every game." it was also true, because every single store got 0-3 extras until the reprint...

Yeah, I remember when it was announced they were very quiet on a physical release and internal Gamestop messaging basically made it seem like they pushed Square to print some physically, and they heavily suggested interested people to preorder because it was going to be a very small, one time...
