just throwing this out there:
i went to the National City Circuit City, and of course, they had no COD4 in stock. they claimed they don't offer rainchecks -- anyone know if that's true? sounded weird to me.
anyway, screw them, i figured. i grabbed the CC ad and zipped over to BB, where they PM'd it, no problem. they also have plenty of copies on the floor (20+), so if anyone in the area wants this game at the 40-dollar price, BB is go.
