Gamestop 10% off coupon now expires 4/25 READ FIRST POST!

CAGiversary!
IMPORTANT NEW CHANGES. READ THIS POST OKAY?

Okay there are some changes now. The coupon just became a whole lot less useful. It only works on use merchandise now...:cry:

It can be used online and instore though, and it stacks with edge, so if you are buying a lot used it's still good, but it has become fairly worthless to me for now...

I am not sure if this updates yet. We'll have to wait and see.

Thanks to:
daemeous - For getting this latest one
hordak - The one before this one
Chronis - The one before that.


F.A.Q.:
  1. Using it on a B2G1 Free sale is EXTREMELY YMMV. The computer won't allow to premade promos to happen at the same time. In order to get it to work, the cashier would need to to the 10% manually.(not likely to happen)
  2. Not valid on consoles, as stated in the coupon notes.
  3. I doubt it's pricematchable since someone asked this in the last thread I figured I'd add this in.
  4. It no longer works on new games
  5. It stacks with Edge on used games/accessories
  6. No it doesn't stack with other coupons. Unless your cashier is very nice. And stupid. Again, it would need to be done manually to have 2 promos/coupons.
  7. I do not have the e-mail to forward yet, and it may not be helpful since we're not sure if it updates yet.
  8. The Address on the coupon is for the Corporate Headquarters
  9. This will not work with bundles
  10. It does not work with pre-orders Period now.
  11. When you print the coupon, it is suggested to cut it so the non-Gamestop URL is gone. We don't want to raise suspicions now.
 
[quote name='movieman2742']Oh I hate that. As an employee, it makes sense to us. We have to do a thing called "Title on Hand" to see what cases are on the floor and whats not. They typically only put stickers on the spine for bookcased games. What really bothers me is when they put the fuck ing stickers on the artwork! Why not the case! They can still come off! I've damaged artwork for games because of this crap! I refuse to do this sticker thing on any games I put on the shelves. Those damn things don't come off easily!

:bomb:[/quote]

I don't care about stickers anywhere on the case when it is OVER the plastic. It's easy to peel off and use some Glu-Gone to remove the stickiness. I hate when they put it UNDER the plastic on the spine, it's basically impossible to get off.

I still buy used games from them when I see something good, but it pisses me off when you find a somewhat rare ps2 rpg in perfect condition, except they fuck it up by putting the sticker under the plastic protection, directly on the cover.
 
Huh... oh great.

I was hoping I can use this coupon for Rondo of Swords and Persona 3 Fes but it looks like I won't be able to now. /sigh

I tried using the other coupon when I pre ordered but they wouldn't let me :(
 
Doesn't bother me at all, I only use the coupon to get the newer used games that are 54.99, so this affects me not.
 
This may not be a coincidence, with GTA IV coming out soon and all, then MGS4 a bit after that. They'd only be minimizing their total profits with those coupons, since people are going to buy those games no matter what they cost.

It's unfortunate but I hardly shopped there any way, I really hate what they do with their used games, so if I want something used I usually check GameFly. I only go into GameStop to browse around, there's too many good deals out there now to even have to go into that place.

Granted I did get a LOT of use from these 10 percent off coupons, only problem was that the employees were often too inept to figure out how to apply the discount despite the instructions being right on it.
 
[quote name='Hybrid5006']Very useless indeed since cags get 16% off =) + 10% edge on used games already[/quote]

Very useless? Not even close. As you probably already know, the 15% off we get from CAG is online only. That brings up a few issues. One, not all used games are available online, especially when it comes to very new releases and extremely rare titles. Two, you are not guaranteed anything but the game when you order online, whereas you can walk into the store and see what you are getting.
 
Damn, that sucks. Goodbye GameStop 10% off coupon, hello Target $5 off toy coupon.

I was hoping this would last until MGS4. I guess I'm going to have to reconsider getting the MGS4 LE.

Hell, I'll probably just cancel the preorder and go buy the regular edition at Target using the toy coupon.
 
I'm going to use this tomorrow with my Edge card to get Halo 3 used for $33.91 after taxes.

Not a bad deal at all in my opinion, seeing as I sold my LE copy for $45 to GameCrazy a while ago.

Now that the MLG playlist is out, and the Legendary map pack is actually good, I'm gonna give H3 another shot.

That $5 coupon is as good as 10% on most games ($50 games, that is). After I exhaust my Best Buy credit, I will go to Target instead of GS for either Mario Kart of Boom Blox. For those that don't know about it, here's the link. I made it myself:
http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=172812
It's also now in the OP of the Target clearance thread.
 
Damn. I wanted to use this on Mario Kart Wii (barring any deals at other places), FES and Rondo of Swords. Hopefully, Target carries RoS and FES or GS brings the old coupon back.
 
Hmm, the top part of the coupon in the PDF has the 05/09 code, the bottom part (the instructions part) has the 04/25 code...
 
[quote name='AkariK']Hmm, the top part of the coupon in the PDF has the 05/09 code, the bottom part (the instructions part) has the 04/25 code...[/quote]

Oops, didn't see that. I had to paste the bottom portion from the old coupon to get a complete image and didn't realize that the code changed. Guess I'll edit my post for now.
 
The coupon email on the front page in html form isn't completely updated. The instructions for the store have the incorrect code. The portion with Mario on it is up to date, but if they look at the instructions section they are going to enter the wrong code, and then they might balk at it.
 
the HTML code for the bottom portion is text, or it seems that way on first glance.

You can edit it yourself to reflect the new code.

anyway, MegaMan ZX Advent price dropped, this coupon will do me well, thanks!!!
 
Wasn't there a CAG16 code that stacked with edge? Though I don't trust getting used games from gamestop online...
 
[quote name='whymustiregister']Thanks for pointing that out. I've created a new PDF with the correct codes on the top and bottom. 6 per sheet, download link in the middle of the web page.

http://www.plunder.com/-download-129397.htmhttp://www.plunder.com/-download-129397.htm[/quote]
thanks we appreciate it!

[quote name='R0wdi']Just use the code PPLAY15 for 15% off. Does anybody know of a free shipping coupon?[/quote]
I did a quick google and this link says it is 'SAVER' Although I could not find a date when this link was posted. http://www.momsview.com/gamestop.shtml

[quote name='AkariK']Wasn't there a CAG16 code that stacked with edge? Though I don't trust getting used games from gamestop online...[/quote]

haha extra 1% compared to the PPLAY15 coupon. Hey I know it helps. And i think both coupons stacked.
 
Oh ya, and just to warn some others. I ordered a used Lost Odyssey from gamestop and the paper sleeve that's supposed to hold the 4th disc wasn't there, so the disc was just scraping around in the case. And there was this blue gooey shit behind the manual. After around 5 emails back and fourth with the horrible customer service, they gave me a $10 off coupon..I wouldn't suggest ordering from these guys.
 
Thanks for the new coupon will save me $9 on the stupid edition GTA come tuesday. :D

And to the above poster most who have been here for any amount of time know to expect disk only or crap when ordering from GS.com, they suck.
 
I just tried and PPLAY15 & CAG16 don't stack, but CAG16 & Saver do. Thanks Asthmatic. Although buying used games from them is shady, I have a $10 coupon I got for that bad transaction that I want to spend. Don't see anything I want at the time being, though.
 
Here's the html code with the text code numbers updated, for those who want to print the full page (at least some GS's want to see the entire email):

[quote name='crunchewy']Here's the html code with the text code numbers updated, for those who want to print the full page (at least some GS's want to see the entire email):[/QUOTE]

Can anyone please tell me what to do to print said code?:dunce:

Copy said code and paste it into notepad. Save as... (something).html

close, then double click on the file (something).html
 
Can someone confirm this one works at different locations and not regional locations. Also, to make sure that GS does take this coupon after yesterday's company-wide e-mail of not taking printouts (not sure if it was in regards to the other coupon from another thread).

thnx.
 
there is a new expiration date and the coupon code changed.

HAha....I think it's so fucking retarded that you have to make sure you use " fucking" in almost every thread you post on CAG. Hehe... I can imagine you saying this during each XBOX Live match when you lose...hehe..

In a previous GS thread, there was a post of an employee in regards to a company-wide e-mail of not taking in a coupon. The coupons were used by several of us in different regions and they didn't work. So, granted...I should have posted the URL in order for you to understand what was going on.

Wow, very helpful post. That is what CAG is all about. And just for your information, the coupon clearly has an online code, so if they did stop taking them in-store, it wouldn't be completely useless. 0 for 2, my friend.
 
Used the coupon + edge card and picked up a used copy of GTAIV!:D
Surprised that I even found one. Total came to $47.xx after taxes.
