ok guys and girls, listen up. This coupon works! I'm holding in my hand, as we speak, The PSP Slim Ice bundle pack. I paid $172 after tax. Here's the scoop on how to do it: READY?
1.) Your appearance: More important than you think. It's a proven fact that more attractive people are trusted more and believed to be more honest than their basement dwelling friends. if you don't believe me, Google it. I'm not saying you have to look like Brad Pitt, but at least do your hair and shave. Don't go in their looking like you just rolled out of bed, and please brush your teeth! Yes I'm talking to the gamers out there who forgot about proper hygiene after leveling their character in Warcraft for 6 days straight.
2.) As mentioned before, look for the ugly chick working there. Hunt one down, there's always one. DO NOT get the FAT BALD GUY! He hates you, and everything about you. Especially if you did your hair.
3.) After asking her to help you find the psp or other items, strike up a conversation! Ask her why she's working at circuit city or something. It sounds funny, but it will make a quick bond between you and her, and thats what you want.
4.) Presenting the coupon: After the sales girl has helped you find your item, and you've talked to her for a minute about nothing. (girls love that).. ask her to ring you up. Now, what I did.. I printed the ENTIRE AD with the 3 coupons on it. I used nice BOLD color, with semi-shiny paper. Don't stretch it to fit the entire page, but if you have the option, Crop it to leave maybe a 1" margin. This will make the coupons look exactly like the real deal. I then cut the 1" extra paper off the sides, so it's just the ad. Then, I folded the top part of the ad with the people on it, BEHIND the coupons. So only the coupons are showing, and the paper looks thicker. DO it.
5.) Now for the final showdown, between you and the sales girl. One important thing to remember, is to keep the conversation going. Come on guys, just cause you play games doesn't mean you can't be quite the charmer as well. Just be cool, and let the convo roll. Before she scans your item, let her know you have a coupon. I carried mine around in my hand the whole time I was there, like i wasn't trying to hide the fact that I have a coupon. So, as she's scanning your item, say something like.."oooh my coupon", and actually tear it off right in front of her, and hand it to her. Now, if she starts READING it, make a joke or say something charming. Say something like "with this extra money I save, I can take you out for dinner". Girl's love this.. and most likely she will just laugh and scan your coupon at the same time... forgetting all about reading the fine print =)
6.) Say thanks, get her phone number, and enjoy your cheap ass gaming.
time for me to go play some Daxter
