for lunch today, i went to the tysons corner, va best buy to check out the deals. they had a few of the $5 games in stock, but they weren't listed as such (wario world was $29, Mary Kate and Ashley License to Drive was $19). An employee asked if he could help me, so I asked him to price check Wario World. he went off and came back, and said it was listed for $29. I said "oh" and went to a different part of the store. then I saw this guy go talk to another best buy employee, and they both went back to the videogames section, and he pointed at Wario World. I make my way back over there to overhear what they are saying, and I distinctly heard him say "..it showed up as $5."
so when they leave i pick up Wario World and the Mary Kate game (only games i remember from the lists i've seen here that were at the store), confindent that they will ring up as $5. at checkout, mary kate IS $5 (despite the $19 sign) but Wario World rang up as $29! I told the cashier i thought the games was $5, so i didnt want it, and she says "oh no this game just came out. we don't have any $5 gamecube games." right... even though the other game came up as $5, though i didnt bother point that out to the stupid cow.
i'm suspicious that the first employee i asked to price check the game changed Wario World's price in that store's database... can they do that? the second guy he told may have been a manager so he might have done it but.. i'm just bitter that first guy lied, what the heck does he care, doesn't cost him anything to sell the game that cheap. bastard.
