CAGiversary!
I had a message on my voicemail when I got home.

20% all general merch at Meijers on Monday July 23rd only.

This part taken from SD:

If you use Meijer CC at Meijer stores you get 20% off General Merhcandise and Apparel. This is good on video game systems and electronics!

If you dont have a Meijer CC, you get 10% off your first purchase.

Here are some notable deals without tax(the prices in parentheses are if you use extra 10%):

PS3- $400 ($360!)
Wii- $200 ($180)
Nintendo DS- $104 ($94)
iPod 30 gb- $200 ($180)

[quote name='andysavestheday']This is certainly a great deal...I couldn't wait, as my local meijer only had 1 PS3 left, so I hurried over at midnight, applied (15% off for applying) for the mejier credit card, was accepted (10% off first purchase with card) and applied the 20% off that was advertised as monday only. So that's 45% (in theory) off. Everything was fine until cashier couldn't override something and there was no manager on duty, so after a lot of waiting, I get to go back tomorrow and get my brand new 60GB PS3 for less than $300 after tax. I'm excited!! Thanks OP![/QUOTE]

So if you first apply for the card you get another 15% off?!?! Wow, I am going over there tomorrow if this is true.
 
15% off????? I don't know what the hell you are talking about, pretty sure nothing like that exists. Also, it won't be that cheap. You are not getting 45% off the 499.99 tag. You are getting a max 20% so then down to 399.99 and then maybe 15%(pretty sure no such thing exists, but could be wrong, please let me know) so 339.99 and then 10% off, so 306.99+tax. And more than likely they are going to give you the 10% off first because that is a coupon that needs to be scanned right away.
Sorry to shatter your hopes and dreams.

I just got back at 12:30 from one of my local Meijer and since technically the 20% off isn't effective until 6AM, they couldn't punch it in. However, the store director just came up since he couldn't override it they just gave me the 20% off in cash back.

Ended up being (476.99-95.40) 381.59 after taxes. Not bad price for a PS3. Prolly gonna check at another store tomorrow and see if they have any Wiis. Also might try to get a copy of Nascar 08 tomorrow at midnight and see if the register will still give me the 20% off.
 
[quote name='daroga']Me too! Only they had another 15% discount on top of the 20% and 10% and I don't remember what that was for (15% just for applying at 10% off the first purchase?)

Got my 360 and Burnout for like $270 out the door. Good stuff. Good luck CAGs! :)[/QUOTE]Yeah, I remembered that same deal. I already had a PS3 and 360 at the time, but I was able to get Ratchet & Clank: SM on PSP for $28 and a 2nd SIXAXIS controller for $34. That was still a great deal to me. :) Yeah, that sale was too awesome.
 
[quote name='mvp828']15% off????? I don't know what the hell you are talking about, pretty sure nothing like that exists. [/quote]

Yep, there's a sign that says "get 15% off your purchase today for applying" along with a free 12 pack of coke and a beach towel. So I got the 15% for applying (I got a coupon) along with 20% off for today only sale along with 10% off first purchase. The other Meijer across town was not giving the 15% for signing up so this is certainly YMMV, for the extra 15% anyway.

I gotta go to work but I'll let you know what my final total is when I get back.
 
Naturally, this week I move from Michigan (where the deal is happening) to right near Indianapolis (where it is not happening). I want a PSP!
 
[quote name='The Mana Knight']The closest Meijer for you to end up at is the one at Exit 105 on I-69 (on Illinois Rd), the Meijer I usually go to. I was there last week, and they had one 60GB PS3, one Xbox 360 Elite, and two Xbox 360 Premiums. Next Meijer is off of Exit 111, on Lima Rd.[/QUOTE]

Closest to Indy with the sale is Anderson or Muncie. Both list the 20% off in their ads this week.
 
That 15% is definitely YMMV. I grabbed a PS3 this morning for about $386 after tax. Another 15% would have been sweet.

I don't think anyone mentioned (or I missed it) that you have to use a Meijers credit card in order to even get the 20% discount. Took me half an hour in store before I finally grabbed an ad and noticed that. They didn't have the sign up when I walked in.

Thanks OP for posting this.
 
[quote name='foltzie']Also, if they take the discounts in sequence it will be a %28 off instead of %30.

100 - %20 = 80
80 - %10 = 72[/quote]
This person speaks the truth. The Coupons are done in sequence. Its 28% off.

These types of sales aren't very common, but I think you can count on about 4 of them per year?

And WOW @ the extra 15% off. That is definitely YMMV, I have never seen that before. Nicely Done! :)

Alright thanks man... Also just read my post from last night, was kind of tired didn't mean to sound like a jackass. Yeah and when you find out please post, so I can possibly go to the other stores and check it out. Now that you mention it, it seems like I remember seeing those signs before (just can't remember what GR Meijer or if it was in Midland).

Hopefully it is true so I can just complain to a store manager and they usually will help and give the extra 15% off.
 
I just got home from Meijer and they had two in the display cabinet despite having none yesterday (I guess they were in the back). I went ahead and applied for the card, got the discounts (and a free case of pop, lol) and it came out about $372! You guys should've seen the look on the cashier's face when the discounts were applied. She litterally kinda jerked in shock, lol. Man, I used to (well still do, really given the new 80GB model) really criticize the PS3 for being so darn expensive. And here I have just paid over $100 less for it than I did for my Elite.

Well this is one since of irony I can happily live with.
 
Picked mine up today, in Highland Mi, and the deal was !0% off for the first buy and then 20% off due to the sale today. Can anyone verify that I got all of the discounts or am I missing a 15% off deal for simply applying? I didn't see any signs stating that there was 15% off just for applying. Please help out so I know if I need to go back and get some more cash back. Thanks
 
I guess I got really lucky today.

Final price I paid for my brand new 60GB PS3 was 314.49 after tax.

So here's the deal with the 15% - I walked in and they had a table set up where you get 15% off JUST FOR APPLYING. They almost screwed me on that one, the cashier almost counted that as my 10% off for my first purchase, but a manager saved me. The other Meijer across town didn't have any table set up or anything, so it is definatly YMMV.

So, I got my 15% for applying, my 10% off for my first purchase and the 20% off for the one day only sale. Sadly my total didn't come in under 300, but instead it was still under 320 after tax, I think that's pretty sweet. The manager that helped me was shocked at the deal, so was the cashier. As I left he said "wow, that was a nice deal..." I just smiled and left before they stopped me!

So good luck to everyone and thanks again OP!

Oh yeah, this was in Kentucky, Lexington area...
 
I went back to Meijer today to get the additional 20% off. At least in my Meijers there is only a 10% applied to first purchase with Meijer credit card. Total was around $422 or so after tax, but this also included Motorstorm. I think I did all right. Especially since I was looking for a high-def dvd player as well.

Good Luck.
 
Yea the 15% off deal is definitely YMMV. I don't think there are any Meijers in the Grand Rapids, MI area that have that deal. I wish I was at school up in Midland, MI. They always had that table up for the past 10 months.
 
Picked up a PS3 today. My Meijer offered a free pizza for applying & a free 2-liter upon approval. (Well, the soda didn't come off, but I'm not going to complain about $.62.) Picked up the PS3, a baker's rack, a chair, & groceries for less than $500. The baker's rack was regularly $100 on sale for $80, and the chair was regularly $35 on sale for $25, so they were pretty good deals with the discounts off the sale price. Amazing that some Meijer are offering 15% off just for applying, I've never seen that at my local one. Most of the time I've seen the card advertised for a free 12-pack upon approval, but nothing for applying. Was going to pick up an extra controller, but they're only $35 at my local Wal-Mart. The only thing is I'm moving, so I probably won't get a chance to play it for about 2 weeks.

It all depends on your store because most weren't doing that because I asked when I applied at my local Allen Park, MI location and they weren't doing it so all I got was the 20% off and 10% for first purchase so mine was $381 after tax which is a little higher than I wanted to buy one for but it is well worth it because I know that a lot more PS2 games will be played on it then PS3 that is why I wanted the 60 Gig instead of the 80 Gig. Its way better then paying $500 for it.

Same thing with my local store I called on Sunday and they didn't have any and then I call when I got home from work they had two. Somebody bought one while I was applying for the card.
 
[quote name='Kendal']I live near Pontiac in Waterford, where are you? I haven't found them anywhere. I haven't been searching everyday, but I still haven't seen them when I do look.[/quote]
Meijier in Bay City MI have them. There were 2 systems earlier today. I didn't even know about this deal (though I already have a wii anyway) or I may have jumped on something
 
yeah, wow, i just got back and i'm so excited. earlier, got a coupon grocery shopping for an additional $10 off on top of your normal 10% when you open an account and i was like what the hell, even more money since i was planning on buying it. well....turns out the cashier took it as an additional 10% on top of $10 haha. then, to top it off, she couldn't get it workin so instead of the staggered %'s off, she just took 110 off as a coupon. walked out with a new ps3 for $300 and then $10 cash cause they thought they forgot to give it to me....i was smiling so much, i feel bad for my former place of work hahahaa
 
Meijer in Flint, MI (Hill Rd.) had a PS3, several 360s, and PS2s, PSPs, and GCs out the wazoo. I resisted the shiny black console.
 
I got Resident Wiivil 4 and a Classic Controller for $42 and change out the door. I didn't see any consoles besides DS Lites and GBA SPs. I really wanted to find a good deal on a PS3. Oh well.
 
My mom and I got denied for the credit card (I have no credit history- 2 free 12 packs of pop though) so I had my aunt do it after she got off work. I only wanted the console, but I thought I should pick up resistance too while she was down there, but I was too late for the extra 10% off so Resistance was 20% only. All together with tax, it was $429. Awesome deal, and I have to say that Blu-Ray looks AMAZING! Only problems with the PS3 is that I had to pay for the component cables and the damn thing is like a fingerprint magnet!
 
Hmm, I'm tempted to go down to Indy to take advantage of it, lol.

There were no PS3 consoles at the Meijer I went to on Monday. All I got was a PS3 Blu-ray/DVD remote, but oh well. I wanted Hot Shots Tennis, but it wasn't there.
 
[quote name='RESmonkey']I want to know if it's today, and what is Indy? Indiana?
I'm in Illinois...[/quote]Indy=Indianapolis
 
I actually did the deal today in Indy - got the 20% off plus 10% for opening an account. We called 2 Meijers last night to check the inventory status of the PS3 in Noblesville and Carmel. Noblesville said they had 2 in stock and none in Carmel. When we stopped in Noblesville this morning, they didn't have any, but there were quite a few PSPs in stock. Went ahead and stopped at the Carmel Meijer since its like a block from where I work. I got the last PS3 in stock. Didn't get a chance to check to see what other systems were available since I was running a little behind.
 
Picked up a 60GB this week for $360 + tax. For applying for their card, I got coupons for a free rotisserie chicken (lol) and a 12-pack of name-brand soda or water. The lady from electronics said I was also supposed to get a free t-shirt, but they were out. So, I got a 2nd coupon for another 12-pack.

Thanks, OP!!
 
So. Any ideas when this will run again? I know they do those coupons every now and again but anyone have a better clue than me?
 
So today Meijer had a 15% off all gerneral items for Senior Citizens, so I took my grandmother up there with me. They let me pay for the purchases with my new meijer creditcard, so I got another 10% off, plus $10 dollars off because of a another coupon they gave me.

So in the end I got:
60 gig ps3
Resistance:FOM
Virtua Fighter 5
SixAxis Controller

all for $530, and that included tax

not a bad deal at all
 
[quote name='Corvin']So. Any ideas when this will run again? I know they do those coupons every now and again but anyone have a better clue than me?[/QUOTE]

they have the 15% or 20% off about every month or so.. the 20 occurs about 2 or 3x a year and the 15% happens the rest of the time...

the good thing about the 15 or 20% off days is that coupons and price matching can be stacked on top of that. (at least, i've never had a problem with it.)
