Hit the Somerville, MA (store #3486) K-Mart this morning. The store really, really needs either a.) way less stock on hand, or b.) way more glass cabinets. The cabinets are STUFFED with games and it's totally disorganized. It's impossible for customers to browse and difficult for clerks to...

Great timing. My Live sub just ended yesterday, I check here just now, and bam there's a deal! Gonna go hunting for one of those Joust cards after work - I'm sure one of my local eastern MA stores will have it.

Say my name, and I shall appear. I know of the latest BB guide drop, but I've only had time to check one store (Mass. Ave in Boston, and they're fresh out). It's busy season in my business, so I've been working 80-hour weeks and raking in the cash so I can chill out a bit for the rest of the...

Does Blockbuster carry a wide variety of guides, or just a few? If they're keeping current I'd love to snag the Peacewalker mini-guide for half off. Hit a couple of Best Buys today, found Pokemon Sky, a couple of Army of Two 2s, both of the Warcraft Lich King books, Bowser, and surprisingly, a...

I give them away as gifts. I give so many games to friends and family as gifts, they regard me as some kind of crazy year-round video game Santa. Even though they know I hunt for clearance deals, they're always amazed when I pull stuff out for them. I've gotten four of those TNA Impacts so...

Some of them already are-- I spotted a fullsize Weber Q portable gas grill for 50% off ($120) last week. I'm sure it's gone by now, those grills are AWESOME. So keep your eyes peeled for drops on Weber-Q and Baby-Q grills, because there's still 6+ weeks of summer left! Plus, I've had my...

Sweet. I've got that coupon, I've got a couple of old giftcards worth about $8 total, I'm getting Bioshock 2 for $12 tomorrow! :D

Decent magazine, promising coupons. I've read it cover to cover and it's decent, now I'll settle in to wait and see if Bioshock 2 or Fifa WC drop before the 31st. I'll wait to see what kind of coups are in issue 2 before I subscribe, though.

I've also tried doing barcodes on my iPhone, and no scanner I've tried can read the screen. Definitely a shame, I hate wasting the paper. I've picked up a number of games from the list recently (:360: Wet and Dirt 2 for $10, Nascar 09 for $3, etc.) but nothing new or unexpected. The...

After a loooooong break (saving for South Africa, plane leaves tomorrow nite!!) hit the Cambridge MA Sears and got: :360: Viva Pinata $1.97 :360: TNA Impact $0.97 :PSP: Tiger Woods 08 $0.97 :wii: Warioland Shake It $4.97 Four games, under ten bucks... I love it! Was hoping for Muramasa, but...

Just to be clear - did the Stashasaurus hide the controller because he wanted it to drop to $10 before buying it, or was it already $10 and he didn't have the scratch? Man, I don't even go out shopping if I don't have a pinch of folding money to blow on stupid stuff like this.

Wow, everyone's mad at the Stashasaurus! I have a confession to make: I hid a game once. I took it from the clearance endcap and put it back in with the loose games. I'm not the only one who does this, either, which is why I always flip through the loose games. :D My nearest stores don't...

Man, this is usually the only way I can find stuff. My 2 nearest stores always let me flip through the cases myself, they just stay in the area while I browse so they can relock the cabinet as soon as I'm finished. I had one clerk try to tell me I couldn't look once and was "too busy" to help...

Possibly. It's somewhat YMMV as several people have been shot down, but the majority seem to have scored with this one. I'm going to swing by a store on the way in to work tomorrow (I start at 10am, so I'll be 5 minutes late and hit the one closest to work) and will report if it still works...

I'm actually liking the way the mood seems much more festive this time around. I think it helps that this deal hasn't exploded all over FW/SD, so there's less resentment over "outsiders" making swoops for deals. I still have several of those Sudokus. I've been throwing them on eBay for $0.99...

Ah, the free video game fairy strikes again. :D Remember how last time everyone bought the hell out of that rubbish sudoku game and people cried that the deal was dead forever? Remember the time before that, when everyone bought the hell out of that rubbish fairytale game and people cried...

When a game I want goes on sale at a competitor store, I always take the print ad to Sears and get a pricematch. Remember, they do the pricematch-plus deal where they take an extra 10% off! Getting Metroid Prime Trilogy for $20-30 isn't bad, but I remember when Best Buy was running a $20 sale...

Give it a shot. It worked for me when I found one copy of Naruto 2 :wii: for $2.97 at one store and $19.99 at another.

I've been to a few, and every single one of them not only doesn't alphabetize, they don't have enough room in the case for all the games-- so you'll see a layer of games (mostly newer ones) up front, with dozens of older ones stuffed behind, impossible to browse. I dug and dug and dug for...

Yeah, there were dropped titles at my local Sears stores here and there, but I hit a couple today and they were all cleaned out except for Muramasa, that one still seems fairly easy to find. Gonna wait for the $9.97 drop, I think. I even got a pennied guide waiting to help me through it. :D
