CAGiversary!
Gamestop is running their buy 2 preowned get one free here (southern CT), and the employees claimed that it would be offered for a few days at least. They had some random figurines for half off as well.

Blockbuster has the buy 3 preowned dvd's for $25, as well as buy 2 preowned games and get the third free and this deal will be on for the week (?). I went there looking for the office to give to a coworker since I saw that someone got the first season counted as one dvd in this deal in the dvd postings section, and it is apparently going to be a huge YMMV. The clerk said that they never got this set in to rent, so the only way that it would be for sale is if someone else had traded it in. And they split the disks for box sets (i.e., if the box had three disks, you would have to buy all three individually and would end up paying $25). The selection of movies is usually pretty good, you can get movies like Shrek 2 widescreen in almost new condition for instance for less than the price of one evening movie tix.

The mall here is under construction in addition to the normal holiday madness, so I have not gone near that place for awhile. The thought of going to some place like WalMart today was too frightening, as it is normally a madhouse without people hoarding stuff like half off wrapping paper. Stuff was pretty well picked over before Christmas here. You may find a cheap box of candy canes or something, but that is probably it. Unless I am just looking in the wrong places.

Did anyone find any good deals today?

(mods: I didn't know what is the best forum for this, so I took a chance and am placing it here. Please feel free to move it.)
 
I went to Toys R Us and Best Buy
TRU
2 for 30
Katamari Damacy (sp?)
ESPN College Hoops 2k5 (Xbox)

Best Buy
Tiger Woods 2k5 (ds)
Ratchet and Clank
Jak II (I forgot I already own the game now I'm stuck with extra copy)

I was happy I'm going to Wal Mart later to get a DVD rack.
 
I moved it to deal and shopping discussions.

I think I may go to BB and see if they have any stuff on sale, mainly because I want to rent a movie
 
[quote name='mtxbass1']Went to hell...I mean the mall. Didn't find anything though. Did score the Bards Tale at Blockbuster for 9.99 though.[/quote]

How'd you score this one? Was there a special?
 
Check, I went to Gamestop and bought an extention cord for a GC controller and then went to a KB Toys that was shutting down. I think I might buy their Gamecube Kiosk for like 150 bucks which would be a steal. I then took this Mario and Luigi stand-up. It was a pretty good day.
 
My friend bought me NFSU and my brother Medal of Honor: Frontline so I guess that means it was a good day.
My sister also bought a DVD burner, so I can make backups of all MY movies for college! (NO PIRATING!) Yay!
Plus, I mightt go to CC later this week to get Mouline Rouge for $5. Now thats a steal...
 
Well nothing really great deal but I did get a few things

Gamecrazy: Fire Emblem- cart only $24.99
Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past mint with box and instructions $17.99!

Yeah, CC is definitely stealing from you with that price ;) I'd watch it if I was given $5, maybe.
 
bought hl2 for $39.99 at best buy using a $40 gift card that i purchased for $30

the question: will i ever open the game?
 
I went to an KB Toys that was closing near me and got Tiger Woods 2004 XBOX for $7.50 and some crap called Splashdown: Rides Gone Wild PS2 for the same price. Also, went to GS and got Jak 1 PS2, 007: Nightfire PS2, and Maximo: Army of Zin for free with the B2G1 sale for a grand total of about $35 for five games.

I did not doubt you, but am just saying that you were pretty lucky based on the way that they do things here. Maybe it is a regional thing to split the box sets. It is pretty annoying that it would cost more for me to rent the disks individually sometimes than to buy the whole box set on sale somewhere. Especially with the $15 first season box set deals that have been posted lately.
 
[quote name='"javeryh"']It's been snowing all day so I haven't even left the house...[/quote]

The snow came through here last night. Not much is on the ground, but it is very cold.
 
I did okay. I got a Blue Xbox S controller, Time Splitters 2, MGS:Substance, and Wave Race: Blue Storm for around $40 at GameStop. I had a gift card there so I used it. I still have around $45 left on it.

How's that working? I've heard mixed reviews about the reception that it gets.

It's been sitting and charging over night, so I'll give it a test drive this evening.

To answer all you guys. It was just marked 9.99. No special deal or anything. I was amazed they had it for this price.
