From RFD, highlights below

PS3 - Trade 4 + $199 for PS3 Slim + Guitar Hero 3 Bundle. I'd value the bundle at $0, so this effectively bumps the games to $25

Wii - Trade 3 + $139 for Wii + EA Sports Active. Seems like too good to be true, even if you value the Wii+EASA at only $209+$50 (widespread sale prices) instead of $219 + $65 (regular EB prices)

Trade 1 for Wii Fit Plus (software)

If anyone owns Wii Fit, there is absolutely no reason NOT to trade it in for Wii Fit Plus since it qualifies.

The argument against trading Wii Fit would be that if they're taking one game ($8+) for Wii Fit plus, is it good value for you to trade a game that apparently still garners $24.50, rather than applying that credit somewhere else?

If you've got one of those cereal coupons plus some cash, WF+ can be had for $15 at TRU.
 
Fair enough, I suppose I could say no one that currently has a Wii Fit should not end up with Wii Fit Plus one way or another then.
 
Went to the local EB last night, traded, Mass Effect, Too Human, Gears of War and Prince of persia. Paid $209.99 and got a 120 gig slim PS3 and a GH3 bundle($3 trade value). Qualifing games are any game with a tiv of $8 or more.

Thanks for the heads I had been waiting for a good deal on a ps3 since the price drop, too bad I already have GH3 for 360.

Thanks TripleQ, I traded in Wii Fit and got Wii fit Plus. I didn't have any other $8 TIV game I was willing to trade in :)
 
Darn, I tried to trade in something for Wii Fit Plus today but was told it was only valid on Sunday (release day). But I still got $24.50 for Wii Fit so wasn't too unhappy.
 
Trade Wii Fit for credit and get Wii Fit Plus using a kellogg's coupon, if you have EB credit already, EB will pay you to get Wii Fit Plus (example: trade Wii Fit for $24.50, get Wii Fit Plus for $19.99 ($24.99 - $5) using a $5 Kellogg's coupon. Net effect: EB will pay you $4.51 tax-free to exchange Wii Fit for Wii Fit Plus.
 
Best part was about the Wii fit deal I picked up an extra 60 coins for Club Nintendo and just ordered those new Zelda posters for 350 points :)
 
Thx OP,

Just got the Wii promo (Trade3 + $139.99 & EA Sports Active).

BTW, EA Sports Active tiv = $24.50 (EB, of course)
 
I looked at the fine print on the signs in-store, and it says "PS2, XBOX, Gamecube games" are included. Whether any are $8+ (or even worth trading into EB with respect to the rare gems) is another matter.
 
Thanks for the info. Traded 4 for $100 off a Slim PS3+GH3 Bundle. And used credit to pay off the rest, so a wicked sweet deal. Big thanks to everybody who provided tips and info on this site.

And EB Games values the GH3 Bundle at $0.01. You weren't far off. Haha.

Thanks again, guys and gals.
