Brick & Mortar Deal/Sale of the Year 2008

[zman73]

for the amount of stuff I either kept, traded, or sold... Hollywood video wins... with the RB2 deal a close second

 

[royalbliss1]

So many good ones to pick from this year. BBV bogo 14.99 under

 

[Imallvol7]

didn't get any of those

 

[A Yellow Fellow]

hollyowod video

 

[aihuman]

Hollywood Video.Got a tone credit at gamestop for it.

 

[GunstarRed]

TRU Rock Band 2 for $85 after GC was the best deal of the year! You had to get up pretty early in the morning to get in on it though.

 

[KingCrow02]

The online deals killed it last year. Only a few B&M deals were worth going to. The Rock Band 2 Bundle was a sweet deal.

RadioShack has good clearances.

 

[micro44]

Both Toys R Us deals were great.

 

[Ather]

Toys R Us: Buy 2, Get 1 Free Games

 

[maigoyume]

B2G1 on my end.

 

[Whambamm]

I abused the hell out of the Blockbuster B1G1 deal to where I ended up with about 8 new games and about 50 dollars profit.

 

[hpv]

Don't vote for Toys R Us. Those douchebags weren't honoring the $109 Rockband 2 sale by the Tuesday of that week. Where's the category for Bait & Switch of the Year? That's what they deserve to win.

 

[Anexanhume]

Eb/gs B2g1

 

[freakyzeeky]

I voted for Toys R' Us' RB2 deal... I really wish I would have taken advantage of that deal. >_

 

[simp1ysimon]

the radio shack clearances sale was pretty good, i got mirror's edge for $40 in jan. at my local radio shack

 

[Lost_In_Shadows]

Toys R Us: Buy 2, Get 1 Free Games

 

[evergoo]

Rock Band 2 Band Kit.

Didn't hop on it but boy was this a steal.

 

[QuickKill]

Radio Shack deals. Some of those pickups were insane.

 

[WasabiJoe]

Had to vote for Toys R Us B2G1 deal since that's the only one I actually partook in.

 

[RageCage12]

I'm in for the TRU Rock Band sale.

 

[Tyga24]

Hollywood Video sale was awesome for grabbing great titles from last generation as well as getting credit for GS

 

[Kilo720]

blockbuster

 

[guruoftime]

The best B&M deal of the year (technically the beginning of this year...) was the Meijer B2G1 free with the 15% stacked on each game. Plus Meijer has a tendency to mislabel games. Picked up Dead Space for $29.76, Far Cry 2 for $25.49 (was the free one), Left 4 Dead for $51, and the Orange Box for $8.50. Total: $95

 

[Km00n]

i got the "Toys R Us: Rock Band 2 Band Kit $109.99 w/ Free $25 Gift Card" ...best investment that i ever made ;-)

 

[darkwhitehair]

buy 2 get 1 free... woot... great deal...

 

[Vlad Impaler7]

Toys R Us: Rock Band 2 Band Kit $109.99 w/ Free $25 Gift Card for sure.

 

[AlienHeadBoy]

Blockbuster deal
(I'm still kicking myself for not picking up two copies of GTA:IV for $15 - I didn't do it because I already owned the PS3 verison, but now that the 360 expansion is out, I'm wishing I would have just went for it)

 

[S0DA POPINSKI]

Bah, again no love for Game Crazy! Best sale? The ones where I got Ace Combat 6 & Crackdown for $15 for both, Rainbow Vegas 2 & Assasins Creed for $10. Darkness & Lost Planet for $5. TNT Impact & Two Worlds for $10.

 

[XXXplosive1]

I bought all my xmas gift games from blockbuster using that deal. I flipped all the GTAIV's I could buy reserved paid off my SFIV and Killzone2 Preorders with them

 

[atlking3000]

Game Stop still the best at deals because you can always bring them back(seven days)

 

[Pojomofo]

gotta love b2g1 sales, I voted for GS

 

[KingBroly]

RB2 sale. I got one through a price match at another store, but it made me get into this genre.

 

[x_mystery_y]

Toys R Us B2G1 free.GS' used only and their used prices suck

 

[Shimrra]

Radio Shack they are all over the place so its been easy to find the game on sale because of that.

 

[asaraa]

EB/GS B2G1 free.

 

[buffdrew84]

tru sale

 

[SpitFire158]

Hollywood Video's sale

 

[Deona]

Blockbuster/GameRush "Buy 1 under $15 get 1 free" deal

 

[meager]

Too bad it's not on the list, cuz I stocked up when Target had a bunch of $39 games after Christmas.

 

[GWIZ2260]

TRU RB2 deal hands down best deal

 

[GoAztecs]

GS gets the nod from me. Buy 2 Get 1 Free is my favorite sale they have

 

[gsugator]

TRU Rock Band 2 deal of the year! I got one too.

 

[Dreamer]

Didn't take advantage of any of these, as I already had RB, but that was a great deal!

 

[DCJ83]

Went with Gamestop's Buy 2 Get 1 Free Used deal. Got some pretty good games with that deal.

 

[jqtaxpayer]

Toys R Us wins this one for me... while the Rock Band deal is undeniably better, I already had Rock Band so I picked the B2G1 deal.

 

[DOMINATOR912]

Radioshack

 

[KidKobun]

I'm going with BlockBuster. I have and will never buy a copy of Rock Band or Guitar Hero. Those games are for casual gamers IMO and I would much rather play a real instrument, which I do.

 

[speedy05]

Hollywood Video: $3.99 Last Generation Games

 

[Aysion]

same as above.
