Good time to pick up PSN/XBL cards too
2X RZ points works on PSN/XBL cards so you get 2X points & 3X points.
Price match Sam's club for $20 or $50 PSN cards that are cheaper than MSRP

$50 PSN card for $46.77

$20 PSN card for $18.88
http://www.samsclub.com/sams/shop/p...CSE_Froogle&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=sku4694191

Requires legwork/luck(you'll need a receipt from store p/u) getting $100 worth of itunes for 485 in this deal could be nice

Yes, BB DOES PRICE MATCH membership clubs(BJ's, Costco, Sam's Club) just have to a have a local store w/i 25 mile radius

Coupon pack comes in the mail

60 day price match policy is now in effect so you're protected on impluse purchases.

$10(not $9.99 tax doesn't factor in either) purchase would be 30 base RZ points but ALL other bonuses/mulitplies stack with this too.

So a $60(rounded to whole $ amount to make it simplier) game would be

180 base RZ point
60 extra points for gamers club 2X points
15 RZ silver bonus points

255 points

255 points = $5.10

So for every $60 we spend... we get $5.10 back... basically it's like getting something for 8.5% off.

Feels like it should be more.

[quote name='immortalfireboy']Whats the 2X point thing. I think i missed something. Do have the 3X coupon.[/QUOTE]

I got an email about a month ago that says I get double reward points for the rest of the year on everything. There was no reason in the email just something like thanks for being a customer. Anyone else get that.

[quote name='kygad']There is actually a few games to choose from. Uncharted being most expensive.[/QUOTE]

Thanks for the correction. The entirety of the promotion (ends 6/23) is:

The sam's club link isn't directing me to the points cards. Cannot find them on the site either via a serach. Can anyone direct me to them on the website?

Nope, this is what it says on my reward site....

"2X Points for You
Here at Best Buy®, we'd like to extend our most sincere thanks for your continued loyalty. Enjoy Double Points on all purchases until 12/31/12, in store or online. There's no coupon required."

Everything seems random though. I'm a Silver member and never received the 3x special event coupon or the $5 reward certificate. Maybe I get the 2x points thing instead. Don't really know.

Thanks, I'll be heading there tomorrow then.

Will probably choose Uncharted. Anybody play The Show on vita?

Also, does the Gamers Club x2pts stack with the coupon? If so that would be sweet since that should be around 1062 pts for me.

I think BB price matching psn or Xbox cards is extremely ymmv. My BB does not price match those cards because they are considered gift cards. I went in to pm the recent toys r us deal and they wouldn't do it.
 
Bought a laptop a few weeks ago(silver member) you think they'll let me return/rebuy to get the 3x points?
 
I just wanted to thank everyone who mentioned the Vita deal again.

I called 2 stores and neither of them knew about it at all. So I went to the store thats like 20 minutes away, and the manager grabbed everything to ring it up and it worked. Hes by far the best BB manager I've ever met, hes never given me trouble before.

Forgot to do the 3x Points coupon so turned around and she fixed it, hopefully it works. She said she didn't get any notification or anything, So she stapled it to my receipt and told me to contact them if it doesn't work and they'd fix it.
 
I just browsed this thread and didn't find the answer. Can I use the 3x Coupon multiple times since I also got the text message on my cell phone? Thanks ahead.

You need to contact the store manager or CSR since they're obviously not trained correctly.

[quote name='thegreek']Bought a laptop a few weeks ago(silver member) you think they'll let me return/rebuy to get the 3x points?[/QUOTE]YMMV since the coupon says it has to be scan at the time of purchase but since you probably paid alot for it that works in your favor.

The deal was the free game and free travel case so I doubt I can get the GC too since it'll show the game/case on the receipt.

If so that would be awesome but I'm not getting my hopes up.

When you return and rebuy them you forfeit the original RZ points though since when you rebuy them the 3X RZ points offer goes away.

Sales adjustment/price match, not return and rebuy.
 
the 3x sku is showing up in my RZ account but the number of points is still showing as 1x pending. Is this normal?

I bought a macbook pro so that's a lot of points! (thanks OP)

I wasn't aware that price adjustment transactions didn't affect RZ point returns/adjustments. Interesting. If that's true thanks for the heads up.
 
This coupon counts for the whole transaction with multiple items? I thought it would only triple on 1 item.

It'll affect the number of RZ points he'll get, but the 3x should still post on the transaction (BBY doesn't give you your points for 30 days for this very reason. Any price adjustment will result in a lowered point total)

But remember I won't get all the RZ points for the full purchase just on the total amount AFTER PM'ING

[quote name='Muerthoz']This coupon counts for the whole transaction with multiple items? I thought it would only triple on 1 item.[/QUOTE]No it's on the total pre-tax purchase amount they have offered coupons that would apply to just 1 item in the past but those are usually in coupon books that come to all RZ members the deals for silver members go all out.

[quote name='foreinter']Are Amazon Kindle card also qualified for 3X points?[/QUOTE]I'm pretty sure they do(not 100% since I'm not looking at the couon). I believe that's the best part of these coupons the reg. restrictions like on Apple products aren't applied since there's no discount just added points.

yes, my shows:

MAY RZ GIFT GUIDE 1 5042151 $0.00 $0.00

my pending points are only 1200 when it would be 3600 with the promo. hopefully when it actually hits, it'll be the 3x.

an extra 2400 points is about $48 so this promo came at just the right time.

These are the type of promos that when combined with the 25% silver bonus make BB the $hit. If they take my idea & offer a movie club with exclusive steelbooks the total # of RZ points that would be coming to me monthly would pretty much make 1/4 of all my purchases discounted by RZ certs.

Mortal Kombat and Wipeout PMs? When? I know R&C and NG3 are DOTDs this week, but are MK and Wipeout going to be as well?
 
Shit. I knew I forgot something when I was going to BB earlier today. Although the trade-in system doesn't allow the scanning of coupons during the trade transaction. Otherwise I woulda received 5x the normal points for the trade I did today instead of the 2x you get from having the GCU I think.;)

I did for a while. But then I remembered I had the first two Uncharted games from that dual pack with the blue Dual Shock 3 that I got from Target for $30. Plus I had the copy of UC3 I bought with the one pre-owned coupon a couple months ago and never got around to playing. So I figured why not eliminate those from my collection since their value will only go down.

FYI: If you have the Uncharted Dual Pack, you're better off trading them in as seperate games, since the dual pack trades in for a flat $8 for both titles while the seperate games trade for $5 and $6. In the end it's $16($16.80 after promo & GCU) vs. $22.10 with everything.
