Coming Soon:

Update: Submitting Feb./Mar. offers as SYWR promotions. Will post as soon as they are approved. At the end of Mar. the coupon issue will be fixed and we'll go back to normal. For Feb . SYWR offers, there will be limit 2 per customer (the SYWR card will limit bonuses systematically).

As of Feb 6th, to earn SYWR bonuses a member has to have a valid email address on their profile and opted in before purchasing an item with a bonus offer. This has been communicated to members through SYWR emails and in the circular along with new signage indicating to receive bonus offers they have to have a valid email address on file and opted in to receive email. Opting in to receive SYWR bonus offers is not too bad:
.

1. Log in to your account online
2. Click "My offers"
3. Click "More about me"
4. Scroll down to contact preferences
5. Click the boxes to receive email from (I suggest all for tomorrow). I'll post if you just have to accept Kmart in the future.


*This list is not comprehensive of every promotion that may be coming and release dates are subject to change.

[quote name='SHC-Gamer']Still have time to change it; I'm interested in the feedback. My initial impression is that $30 value is compelling but I'm open to suggestions.[/QUOTE]

It's an interesting promo, that is worthwhile. We all know there will be tons of content for this game and getting a $50 card for $20 is nice. Though I do agree about the points train for some people.

If you guys somehow get the Signature edition, I'll jump on this deal. I'd probably jump on it either way, but that would help.
 
The DA2 pts offer is great. Considering the game is gonna get raepd with a bunch of extraneous DLC... an extra 4000 for the price of 1600 is great.
 
Hey Josh I emailed you yesterday evening about my not receiving DQVI points. I uploaded the picture of the game/receipt I took onto imageshack and included a link to the picture. Today I can't seem to access that link. Should I just shoot the info to you again and include the picture file?
 
I would think maybe 10,000-15,000 SYWR points + a $20 PSN/1600 XBL points card would be a good match for DA2. Win win? Not sure how hard it would be to do that type of a promo though.
 
liking the offers for march but crysis 2 and dragon age 2 not getting any discounts seems kinda of a let down to be honest. i would rather see that kind of promotion with other games but was hoping for either points or a discount. having to pay 80 upfront is still nicer then paying 110 but some people just don't have that much to spend upfront. i can understand dragon age 2 as it will probably have alot of content but crysis 2 shouldn't have much content in the future. either way thanks for the savings! :)

Goosing it now :)

I just received approval on 10k points as well plus the save $30. That will probably be as high as I can go.

How the hell are you guys making any money?!?

Now, if you could get the special edition, i'm in for 2. Just tell EA to stop being bitches and ship you out some of those. You know they have extras.

Publishers love me :)

Though, this offer definitely will have a limit 1 or 2 to prohibit resellers taking advantage of it too much.
 
Crysis deal is fucking hotfire.. using the points from MvC3 for Crysis and getting a $50 PSN card for $20?! HELL YES.

Can I get two cards for $40?

LOL.

Still working on the complete financials on the limit per customer for March offers.

Dear sweet baby Jesus in all your glorious forum lol, now thats crazy i just went from a maybe to a yes!!! :applause: now the better question is that for dragon age 2 and crysis 2 or just DA2?

edit: just saw you updated the list, HOT!!!!! i wish i could see amazons face when they see those deals lol
 
Awesome, 10,000 points makes me happy for DA2 :) You're killing me Josh, now that I have a SYWR offer for DA2, I'm going to just have to take you up on the 4000 Microsoft points offer, as well. If you guys get the Signature Edition as well that will be amazing! I know I'll be at K-Mart at opening on March 8.
 
*crosses fingers*

Current plan (since I got $100 for MvC2)

Killzone
Point total: 40 .. + bonus for killzone - 60

Crysis
Point total: 0 .. + bonus for Crysis = 10

and $20 for either a PSN or XBLA card

Josh.. seriously. The amount of gratitude I have for you helping us in this capacity isn't even in the english dictionary, so I'm going to make up one right now. Kerfloofle. Kerfloofle, Josh.

I just received a late note from Finance that we are most likely good to for March but need one more meeting. I may have posted prematurely but I do not think we'll have any changes.

U and sadboy crack me up
 
DA2 deal is phenomenal with DLC. Disappointed in Crysis, not willing to spend over $80 on a FPS that's better on PC to begin with. 20,000 "sewer" points would be better.
 
DA2 deal is awesome. It could only be made sweeter if it is the preorder Signature Edition.

All I need now is the Pokemon deal. Thanks Josh.
 
Awesome offers for March Mr. Deane!

I need to send you an e-mail since Memphis has never restocked any 4000 point XBox Cards since October so I hope you can do something about it.
 
[quote name='SHC-Gamer']Pokemon is really driving me crazy. I'd attach a $10-15 coup on it today if that was available and the SYWR team so far doesn't want touch it so I'm scrambling a bit.[/QUOTE]

Maybe you should bust out a deal like LBP2 and ME2, buy black and/or white get another ds game 50% off ( buy black, get white 50% off)

buy black and white get pokepark wii for free (or close to free), you should have stock, i doubt anyone bought it.
Any pokemon movie dvd free with purchase...
2000 wii points card free with purchase ( pokemon stuff is on the wii shop channel)
Get any other pokemon ds game (like rangers or mystery dungeon) free or almost free
Pokemon trading cards free
FREE action replay
Free strat guide
Something pokemon
 
question josh, will there be any copies of the pc version of Homefront/ will the 20,000 SYWR apply to the pc version? Also, I'm constantly waiting to see your pokemon offer. I know you can do it!
 
Definitely going to spend my MVC3 rewards points on Pokemon Black or White. Here's hoping for *any* kind of bonus.
 
I have been wanting to get a $50 psn card to buy some PSOne classics.. Might have to get Dragon Age 2 and Crysis 2 now instead of just Crysis 2.
 
B1G1 50% on Pokemon Black/White would be smokin', so if you're taking an informal poll (which knowing Nintendo your hands will be somewhat tied) that gets my vote. ;)
 
So do you get the 15,000 SYWR points for MLB 11 if you get it free with a 160gb PS3? I'm guessing no, but it's still a good deal either way.

That game, along with some of the other exclusives, is one of the main reasons I'm buying a PS3, so to get it free is a sweet deal.

Actually, yes, you would. Unlike the Killzone 3 Bundle which is separate item. this offer is a bogo so it would apply.

Same here, MvC3 and Pokemon are the reasons I signed up for the card, lol, so here's hoping they can at least match BB and their $10.

I also approve of the Buy 1 Get 1 half off, but since the game is already selling at a lower release price (since they know enough people will gobble it up, and not expect a discount for quite some time, same reason for the lack of pre-order promos, no need for incentive) I'm not sure if that'd be financially sound for K-mart or not.

Haven't played DA 1, so not interested in getting the sequel at launch. However, that Crysis 2 offer looks incredible, but still not sure whether or not I'd pick it up at launch.. hmm.
 
The deals are getting "luke warm" at 15 dollars of points. for the most, and i cant be alone, the price of traveling+ tax means 50 dollars for a game. If newegg or buy.com puts a game for 49.99 with no tax/shipping then its cheaper to me :/
 
Damn dude, keep these deals coming! Ive got $500 stashed away just for these purchases. I want to see how much I can accumulate in SYWR points. Im thinkin a 3DS will be mine for FREE* on launch day!
 
SHC I know its early for this but is there any chance Kmart is getting the SE version of DA 2 or the epic version of Bulletstorm?
 
No Okamiden or Dissidia 012 deals? I know they're smaller titles, but they're the only games I'm interested in spending money on next month.

I don't know if it's realistic to have $20 on every release. Not sure anybody does. I would have gone $20 on DA2, Crysis 2, and Homefront via points, but the SYWR finance team didn't have the appetite for it. Once the coupons come back it will help. Hell, we hit $25 on MvC3 this week and $20 on Bulletstorm and KZ3 next.
 
[quote name='W0lfRHart']SHC I know its early for this but is there any chance Kmart is getting the SE version of DA 2 or the epic version of Bulletstorm?[/QUOTE]
Epic yes, Signature no. EA has a pre order only agreement on DA2 Sigs.
 
Damn I wish it was $20 on DA2, but saving $30 on a 4000 point card is insane IMO. So for $70 effectively you get DA2 (or Crysis 2) and $50 to PSN or XBLA...
 
Josh, I think I may have created a problem for myself and wanted to know if you knew how things would turn out. I bought 2 copies of DQVI on Wednesday and didn't get the points. After hearing that the points were now being awarded, I went to a different K-Mart and bought 2 copies there, and did get the 30K points. 2 questions:

1. If I return the first 2 copies I bought, will that also remove the 30K points I got from the second transaction? I would hope not because they're separate transactions on different receipts.

2. I used ShopYourWayRewards points to buy the first 2 copies. If I return them, do those points go back to my account?

Thanks for all the hard work you do!

You should be able to return them without issue.
 
I didn't want to touch this ever again after it ruined my labor day weekend, but it will be $20 off next week as well.

Blog hitters will be $14.99 on Enslaved, Dead Space 2 $44.99 and Starcraft $39.99.

Probably going to hit Vanquish at $27.99 the following week along with the PS3 version of our Black Ops promotion earlier this month.

Awesome, I have been waiting for Enslaved to drop. I will be grabbing that one!
 
[quote name='dennisb407']Went to the closest Kmart today and they never recieved any MvC3 or the little giveaway posters SMH[/QUOTE]
I am sure they are incorrect. Please email me the location and I'll investigate.
 
Have two questions regarding the DA2 promotion. I take it that the card needs to be in the same purchase as the game. Also can I get the game on PS3 but get the $30 off a 4000 point card? I assume this is possible but I want to make sure.

I am pretty sure that is how it will work, since the PC version of DA2 is part of the promo, and there are no PC point cards.
