Wow.. a full week early! Thanks for the post.. though Call of Duty, Goldeneye, THUG 2, and Smackdown vs. Raw aren't worth $50.. EB has COD for $15 cheaper.. THUG2 is $15 cheaper on EB for PS2, and $25 (50% off!) for XBox and GC!

And for what it's worth, "Pauly Shore Is Dead" is pretty funny, not sure if it's worth the full price. The movie's about Pauly Shore faking his own death to finally get appreciated, then everyone gets pissed when they learned that he faked his suicide.

Apparently, the VHS version of it will be rare, or something, because Amazon is listing it for $41.98.. the DVD is the normal price..

thats why i didnt highlight the xbox or gc version of thug :wink:
 
Thanks for the post! This buy 2 get 1 free really interests me. Baiten and Metroid 2 are two I've been wanting, wouldn't mind a free Goldeneye or MSG Snake Eater.

Does anyone know if this is instore only, or online as well?
 
[quote name='pimpinc333']YESSSS Finallly McGuyver on DVD awesome.[/quote]

I dare you to go pick it up and hand the cashier a dorito, two dollars and a sprite bottle. Tell her that you want MacGuyver season 1 and wish to make a trade. If she declines, tell her that you'll find her a husband with whatever she has in her pocket. When she hands you lint, a paperclip, her cellphone and a battery, construct it into a car and take off outta there.

On a side note, why do all Targets smell the same? The same popcorn-y smell when you walk in the door. It's weird, but I like that smell.
 
Thanks for the post. Wish there were a larger selection of games for the B2G1 though.

Scorch, I think all Targets smell like that because they all have those eateries right in the front of thse store that probably all make the same popcorn.

I much prefer the popcorn-y target smell or the mcdonald's smell of my local wal-mart to the smell of armpit at K-mart. I haven't gone to a K-mart in many years except for one time last year when I went to look for a basic phone after hurricanes knocked out my power. The smell of BO was so strong there (they didn't have AC) that I literally almost barfed between their outer and inner glass doors.
 
Target sure is tricky... glad I slept in today and called off work :)

anyway... Minish cap was $24.99 last week

Call of Duty - PS2/XBOX/GC - part of the $30 sale
Golden Eye - Rogue Agent - PS2/XBOX/GC - sure to drop as all 007 games do
Metroid Prime 2 - Echoes - GC it'll be player's choice within a year probably
THUG 2 - PS2/XBOX/GC - also part of the $30 deal
WWE Smackdown vs Raw - PS2 - I refuse to pay more than $10 for a WWE game, they always end up on clearance in the end
Metal Gear Solid 3 - Snake Eater - PS2 - this one probably won't drop
Baten Kaitos - GC - Jury's still out on this one... I think it'll eventually be a clearance title myself, and that is when I will get it.
Dead or Alive - Ultimate - XBOX - Same as with BK.

Popcorn smelling like popcorn? Lord, no!!! :shock: :lol: :shock:
 
Thanks for the extremely early post trustcompany! I'll probably pass on the B2G1 free as it ends up being about $33 per game (which is still a little much for those titles).
 
Nothing for me from target this week, but Trust, you're the biggest pimp on this site and don't let anyone tell you differently. I really missed your contributions when you left for a while.
 
If I didn't have DOAU, I'd consider DOAU. I don't think it'll be on clearance anytime soon, it might not be selling as good as DOA3, but look how long it took for DOA3 to go down in price and how long it took for DOAX to even go on clearance at CC.

You know Scorch the only reason you beat me to this post was cause you woke up earlier than me. Curses!!! You win this round.

Pauly Shore Is Dead (VHS)[/quote]


I think that it is $42 for the VHS because the release company wants to make rental money first. Few months later, the VHS price will drop to normal. A similar situation is at BestBuy.com right now with Napoleon Dynamite on VHS. Costs about $50 I believe, with DVD at normal price.
 
The B2G1 deal is nice, but since the only game listed I don't have that I want in the list is Baten Kaitos, I'm going to wait until it goes down. But I still appreciate knowing what's happening a week in advance. :D

Again, trust, you rock! Thanks for the threads!
 
Damn trust! Those are some hot deals you posted. Those buy 2 get one free deals always win me over. Looks, like I'm heading to target!
 
Thanks Trustcompany. Can't wait to see the other ads, I gotta see the prices on Superman TAS Vol 1 before I go ahead and order it from DDD.
 
[quote name='CouRageouS']Thanks Trustcompany. Can't wait to see the other ads, I gotta see the prices on Superman TAS Vol 1 before I go ahead and order it from DDD.[/quote]

41 cents cheaper at Best Buy

id order it from DDD, depending on how fast you need it...you'd spend more then 41 cents on gas
 
woohoo Back to the Future Trilogy!!! u ppl should get Enemy at the Gates it looks exactly like the PC version of Call of Duty. the movie is great i love it.
 
updated...sorry if i went color happy, i tried to highlight the new release deals that are cheapest out of the 3 ads....and i also tried to highlight the deals that aren't new releases, but are the cheapest out of any stores that im familiar with
 
I'm kinda disappointed that there are no combo deals like buy AlienVPredator and get Predator 2 SE for $5 (or something like that)

Just ordered from DDD. That Batman Vol 2 for $29.99 is pretty sweet. I can just watch Batman for awhile, even though he doesn't have any powers :roll:
 
I just got a Cube and am happy to get the 2 for $30 deal on some Players Choice titles. Thanks, OP.

Speaking of which: Can someone post a link to all of the GC PC titles? I saw one linked here a few days ago but can't find it now.
 
Any idea which version of Karaoke Rev V.3 is mentioned in the CC ad? If that's the mic bundle, that's a deal.

There's a thread in the Gamecube General Discussion forum, but I find this much easier to read:

[quote name='bobo2k4']Kill Bill 1-2 and Pulp fiction are mine![/quote]

Excellent choices. I'd be all over this if I didn't already have the movies.
 
Thanks, eskimo. Better still, my CC has Super Smash Bros. Melee and Simpsons: Hit & Run in non-PC packaging listing at $30 and $40, respectively, so that's a $40 savings if I can convince them to honor the letter of the ad, and if I can't, I'll just PM the CC ad somewhere else. Too bad Prince of Persia: Sands of Time hasn't gotten the designation yet. Question: Should I get Pikmin or wait for Pikmin 2 to drop in price? (One of the reasons I'm interested in Pikmin 2 is for the multiplayer; is it worth it?)
 
2 for $30 on $20 GC games? You guys don't think it'll actually be $10 again, do you? Because, if so...
 
[quote name='burgundy']Any idea which version of Karaoke Rev V.3 is mentioned in the CC ad? If that's the mic bundle, that's a deal.[/quote]

it doesnt say, but with further investigation :twisted:

its hard to see, because the picture is only about an inch by a half-inch long....but by comparing the picture in the ad to the pictures on ebgames.com

this pic is quoted as being without the microphone/headset
245442.jpg


while this pic is quoted as being with the microphone
245444.jpg


you can see that the one with the mic has a logo on the bottom center that is white/blue, while the one without the mic has a logo on the bottom center that is white/yellow

the picture in the ad is white/blue, meaning the microphone is included....the person responsible at CC for creating these ads may not have known the difference between the two...so it may be a mistake, but im sure they'd honor it, in most cases
 
[quote name='mkelehan']2 for $30 on $20 GC games? You guys don't think it'll actually be $10 again, do you? Because, if so...[/quote]

We could only be so lucky. I'd bet they've checked that price change in the computer so closely, it's scary. :shock:
