Magazine is going digital this issue, but for whatever reason, the coupons are still available in store. It's in a brochure showing a preview of the magazine and talking about RZ Unlocked. There's also no UPC on it outside of the Unlocked sign-up UPC so it could actually be free. I'll try to get pictures up later.

Anyway, the coupons. Valid from 3/3 - 4/6:

$25 off Battlefield 3 (Standard) (PS3 & 360) - $15 AC
$25 off Dragon Ball Z Kinect (360) - $5 AC
$22 off Assassin's Creed: Revelations (360) - $8 AC
$20 off Doom 3 BFG Edition (PS3 & 360) - $20 AC
$20 off Tekken Tag Tournament 2 (PS3 & 360) - $20 AC
$10 off Zone Of The Enders HD Collection (PS3 & 360) - $20 AC
$20 off Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Pre-Owned (PS3 & 360) - $10 AC
$40 off Turtle Beach Ear Force DX12 - $80 AC

EDIT: An FAQ about @Gamer provided by whitereflection:

How do I access my digital magazine/coupons?
You will receive an e-mail with a link to the latest issue of the magazine. In the same e-mail is a second link to access the coupons, which you can either print out to use in-store or use online at bestbuy.com.

How do I receive the digital edition of the magazine?
If you are a new or renewing member, you will automatically receive the digital edition of the magazine. If you are a current print subscriber, you will continue to receive the print edition of the magazine until your subscription expires.

How do I convert my print subscription to digital?
Go to http://www.atgamermagazine.com/customerservice. Login with your subscriber info, which can be found on the mailing label of your magazine. Be aware that it takes up to four weeks to process your request.

I have not received the March issue yet.
The last issue was a double-issue for January/February. March issues have just started mailing and you should receive yours by the second week of the month. @Gamer is published ten times a year with double issues for January/February and July/August.

[quote name='Fauwkes']ZOE hd and doom 3 are $30 at target, can you price match and then use the @gamer coupon?[/QUOTE]
YMMV, its possible if you can get manager to do an override for you.
 
[quote name='ShoMinamimoto']No, I'm a new account here. Never been here before. And I have no idea who IATCG is. How is it that whenever a newbie here is pointed out to not be a newbie, IATCG is the first one to suspect? That guy shouldn't ever show his face here after he was suspected of being the one who stopped pennied guides in Best Buy. If I ever see that factoring hectopascal here, it's * 2 die! I'm serious. It's gonna be a Level i Flare for him.[/QUOTE]

How is it that you say you have no idea who IATCG is, but you know about the penny guide situations? Interesting.

It's him, a newbie wouldn't know the IATCG accronym. I picked up a hint of sarcasm in his post.

So if i walk in with the ad from a competitor for doom
3 its manager discretion to match it?

Never knew IATCG loved TWEWY so much.

One sure way to find out, ask him how much he has in his psn wallet.

Yeah! I finally received my magazine today, and was glad to see that the coupons active dates are from March 3rd to April 6th. Already have BF3 and AC:R, so I'm hoping ZOE HD will be on sale by then.
 
Went ahead and picked up ZOE today with the coupon. Needed to buy something to get my $10 RZ credit for the Facebook promotion.
 
*sigh* You guys just don't get jokes do you? Believe me, I'm not him. I haven't even played GTA IV. I don't have a PS3 or 360. Might as well wait for a price drop after E3 announces the PS4 now. On an unrelated note, Straight Edge, you have misspelled "portable" and "despite" in your sig.

I don't know. He doesn't sound like a newbie, but his writing style doesn't appear the same as IATCG either.

Straight Edge can't spell for shit but he just blames it on his autocorrect. As if autocorrect would spell something cat this trophic.

[quote name='tuffguycore']Is tekken tag worth it for 20? I can't find soon around me and that's the only thing I still want that I don't already have.[/QUOTE]

yes, unless you don't plan on playing MP. Also expect to get owned in MP.

It has been 20 on xbox two times, and 25 on ps3 once.

I'll play a little multi I thought of myself as good at tekken tag when it came out so maybe it'll come back to me haha. I just want a good fighter at a good price that isn't mortal kombat.

AE and Marvel are both $20 or less, if you'd rather play a 2D fighter.

I burned myself out on ae a long time ago and marvel for some reason I've never been able to get a feel for te game.

The associate said I could, but the manager said I couldn't. I tried reasoning with him, but he said that it only reduces the price off of "retail value". Me thinks he's full of s**t.

I like MvC3 a lot, just as much as Tekken. Close at third is SC4.

Suck at Street Fighter:)

If you wanna play Tekken on PS3 PM your handle.
 
[quote name='TheCollegeGamer']Man, I liked IATCG, what ever happened to that guy?[/QUOTE]

yea he got banned..told me y but wont say here...i see him on slickdeals a lot...he has a similar name with same boondocks avatar

The associate didn't know what they were talking about. It's either/or. Once they price match, scanning the coupon will take it back to the price it was BEFORE the PM and then it'll deduct the coupon.

Not sure how people find managers to pull that PM+coupon stunt for them.
 
I always thought ppl hated/ disliked IATcg on cag, if you guys wants him back on here so much. Maybe you should petition cheapy D to reinstate him, LOL
 
[quote name='twistedshabazz']So i am not sure this has been answered already. I have never done the price matching before. Based on best buys website, it seems if it doesnt say price match guarentee they will not match the price on an item? Or will they match any item or is it store by store basis? I was planing on trying to get a few price matches but dont want to get there and they say no for some reason. The prices are from one of the competitors they match.[/QUOTE]Basically, if there's a physical store w/i 25 miles of that BB you can match the store. It's up to them if they want to call & verify that the tiem is in-stock & the price. If BB sells it then you can match it even GC for other venders or pre-paid cards.
 
I know there's people on the fence about re-uping the GCU but here's n example of why you should...
Twisted Metal was $20 from BB months & months ago & I just trade it in to GS for $17.63(after 10% PUR & extra $10) so even if it was in your backlog you'd still pay less than redbox for a weekend. TTT2 netted $16.54 so $4.64(including the 6% tax) is a steal.

Man, the associate was getting my hopes up, too. :cry:

That's what I don't understand is how people pull that crap, either.
 
My local Wal-Mart accepted the $20 Gamer coupon for Doom 3 (PS3) as a competitor's coupon. It took about 10 min to find a manager to do the override and complete the sale, but it was worth the wait to score a copy of Doom 3 for $9.96 + tax.
 
[quote name='bruceg']Nice! If my local Walmart didn't give me problems when I attempt to price match competitors, I would try that also.[/QUOTE]
It's hit or miss there. I was able to get Doom 3, but I couldn't get them to PM Darksiders 2 when BB had it for $14.99 a couple weeks ago.

All the Wal-Marts around me are stingy. They wouldn't have done it for me. :cry:
 
[quote name='FlyingAce39']All the Wal-Marts around me are stingy. They wouldn't have done it for me. :cry:[/QUOTE]

wal-mart is more likely to be nonchalant than bby. they just don't give a shit. that sometimes works in your favor, other times managers refuse to honor policy just because they don't feel like it and consider it shady to explain their own policy to them, lol. /shrug
 
Sad as it is/sounds I always have to "trap" Walmart associates. Like, "Hey, you guys take competitor coupons still right?" (I'm fairly certain that is still their official policy). The associate says, "uhhh yeah, think so." "Oh cool, I have this coupon here and would like this game." Of course the response is almost always the same, "I don't think we can do that." 'Why not?" The employee stares blankly for a moment while they try to figure out a response that doesn't involve not taking competitor coupons cause he just told me they do, "Uhhh we don't know that coupon is valid or not." I walk away and just go to any other store possible and buy something I don't even need out of spite for Walmart.

Oh I'm sure he's already back on here.

I miss his weekly rants about how he's never going to empty his PSN wallet. :lol:
 
It's actually not part of their policy to accept competitors' coupons with "dollars off." Nice that you were able to score.

I'm thinking I might get it for ps3 assuming my best buy has copies left. If so, I think my tag is on my name, if not, it's the same as on here haha. So feel free I play a few titles here and there although I usually get stuff for 360.
 
Picked up Battlefield 3 and Zone of the Enders HD for $37 today. I never got my physical or digital magazine this month, so the BB employee just gave me the little booklet of coupons to use.
 
Please tell me if I'm hallucinating - wasn't ZOE HD $20 online just a day or so ago? Because I just walked into Best Buy again expecting to PM to the online price and - like last month with Prototype 2 - totally got shut down since the online price was higher.

I know it's really really late in the game, but for what it's worth, here's a scan of the cover from the brochure containing this month's coupons. I must have gone by them multiple times thinking it was one of those pre-order cards which are also black with a yellow bar across the top. Instead of looking at the large @GAMER text emblazoned at the top, I just saw the yellow bar and the Bioshock Infinite logo. I kept looking for something that looked like the magazine cover art. Could've saved myself a lot of frustration and wandering through the store if I had only "asked for directions." ;)

Walmart doesn't have to price match competitors coupons, they will price match any manufactures coupon though. I found this out when I got my cat and tried to PM the petsmart coupons she came with. The manager said they can only take manufacturers coupons. Mostly because of make your own coupon sites.
