Edit by Io - The most recent (1/26) drops are in the very beginning of the second post, so look there first!

------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT -- Feb 4th
Things have changed drastically since I started this thread and I've gone from a quality control monitoring job with other duties thrown in to monitoring double the amount plus the work of others. Bascially, I now do the job of three comparing the company now to that of a year ago thanks to layoffs and not hiring to replce people leaving. Plus I generally work 6 days a week and often ten hours with no break. I'd quit, but I have a hunch that our department will be hubbed in another city around July and I might as well hang in for the layoff package. Basically, this means I have zero time for internet and thread managing the way it should be done. My trade list and pm box fall by the wayside and I hardly email or even check my facebook/myspace. I didn't even find time to manage my fantasy football team and will completely forego baseball.

I know IO is busy enough as it is with a couple of threads, but if anyone wants to take over this thread and start a new one, please do so. Of course, I should have all the time in the world to keep it up to date if you want to wait unitl around July.

I got tired of going to TRU for the most recent clearance drops only to find more here on CAG from one of the three threads after I got back from the store. So I've compiled a list from the posts of Starving Gamer, Benboxer, life.exe, cmosfm, Kevzik's pics of lists at his store, the lists I saw at local TRUs and the many posts of awesome CAGs in those threads. I am by no means associated with TRU and I don't have inside information on upcoming drops, but I wanted to post a consolidated list to help other CAGs. As new drops occur Benboxer, Starving Gamer and anyone else is welcome to post new lists here and/or in seperate threads for more attention for the new items and I'll update the OP for total lists. Please keep in mind that some of these games are YMMV on price and as with all ongoing clearances availability is always YMMV as well. Most 9.90, 5.00 and 3.00 games are from the recent drop of a couple weeks ago. Thanks again for everyone's contributions and especially those early lists. I wanted to get this up and running and will do some tidying to the list as necessary. I'm not familiar with every game on the list so feel free to post or pm inconsistencies in titles!

NEW PLEASE READ SEE POST #2 FOR LATEST DROPS
A few things about pricing. All of the last round of drops are 9.90, 5.00, or 3.00. A lot of the 9.90 games were 19.98 before, most of the 5.00 were 9.98 and most of the 3.00 were 5.00. So if you see a game that is 19.98, chances are it may drop to 9.90 next drop which will probably be in a few months. As with any clearance a lot of these games may have been sold out at your store before they were even clearanced and now that the latest drop has been at least a month those games may be hard to find now, too. I do still see several 19.98 some 9.90 and some 5 & 3 games in this area. Don't forget to check the glass case and you can ask if a game is in back as sometimes this is the case.

Don't forget to post your trade wishes and wants in the Official TRU Trading Thread: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=121672

READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE CHECKING THE LIST
Games in blue are from the latest drop, most of which were on clearance already at higher price points.
Games in green are VERY RARE games from the latest drop that were originally shipped to stores in VERY LIMITED quantities when the game was released and only a very few CAGs have found these.
Games in Yellow are have been widely reported as YMMV as pertains to price point.
Games in Orange are new reports that are awaiting confirmation

Did the 360 HD-DVD drop in price? There were like 20 in the store I usually frequent and then I stopped by yesterday just for the heck of it and they were ALL gone. I am hoping they moved them into the backroom to make room for post holiday items...
 
[quote name='heyheyhey11']Fatal fury vol 2 is 9.90

Meaning: clearance. Probably there was one but don't have access to full list[/quote]
This is half off at KB which makes it $7 & change.:cool:
 
[quote name='Justin42']That wasn't quite what they got into trouble for-- they had in-store kiosks that looked EXACTLY like Bestbuy.com and claimed to be bestbuy.com, but the prices were all the in-store prices. So someone would see a cheap price online, then go to the store, use a kiosk to claim a cheaper price online, but then see the same price. The issue was the deception that you were looking at an entirely separate intranet site but it claimed to be the same site as you'd see online.

Now the kiosks have big yellow banners saying that the pricing shown reflects store prices.[/quote]

Actually, the kiosks now say that they show the lowest price between site and store. Which on one hand kinda sucks, because there have been times I bought something and it didn't ring up site price. But then it works out when I have to stand around for 5 minutes waiting for someone to check the online price and adjust my purchase.
 
Saw a bin that looked like the traditional clearance bin, but on closer inspection it was full of questionable items, i.e., many games had been re-shrinkwrapped to look kinda like new, but not really.
 
[quote name='msuna']any updates folks???[/QUOTE]

You've asked that three times on the last three pages now. Stop asking. If and when there are new TRU clearances, one of the many CAGs working at TRU will post them. Its annoying to see the thread bumped up only to find out its someone posting "any updates folks???"
 
[quote name='Devil May Cry']Thought this thread died out. I work at TRU too so I can help if needed.[/QUOTE]

This thread will only die if TRU no longer puts games on clearance ;)

Do you have access to the price drop/clearance lists? The more insiders the better when it comes to clearance games :)
 
I dunno about you guys, but all the TRUs around me got unusually cleaned out during the holidays. Going into the stores around the new year, their inventory looked about 1/3 or 1/4 of what it was a couple months before. Maybe it had something to do with some decent sales they had before Christmas.

Anyways, my point is that I think TRU has room to put off clearances for at least a little while.
 
My TRU looked like a ghost town this past weekend. I had to check to see if they were even open. Go in and I'm the only customer in the store.

Needless to say, they didn't have much on clearance. They had 0 Xbox Live point cards as well, which is what I'm trying to spend a gift card on.
 
[quote name='Josef']This thread will only die if TRU no longer puts games on clearance ;)

I currently work back-of-house, so I can look up the price of anything if needed. I'm working on cashiering in the gaming area, which I might start training for soon.
 
[quote name='msuna']any updates folks???[/quote]

There has been nothing to update for the past few weeks. I will post an update when I see something new come up.

Stores are packing the front end feature shops with clearance and all end caps are to switch to clearance also. Hopefully this is an indication of an impending clearance sale?? I can't get any confirmation on it yet, but I havn't been told a flat out "no" yet...
 
[quote name='msuna']any updates folks???[/quote]
lmao

and it's a good thing for me TRU doesn't have any sales yet.. I'm backlogged in games from the end of last year
 
[quote name='BrownThunder']Is there some weird reason that there isn't a TRU ad this week? I've got some gift cards to use up.[/quote]

Yea, I'm are the same way (can't speak for other cags). MS points sound like the best solution, wish they had some sort of sale now (or soon :drool:).
 
Fatal Fury Vol. 2 is about all I saw in the bin out in Tigard, OR.

I know what you guys mean about the holiday season. Anything with a "low" price is usually cleared out at most stores, like Target.
 
[quote name='shoe478']Yeah, we were waiting for you to ask.

I saw an EOJ booster pack $.98.[/QUOTE]

I bought 4 booster packs for $.98 each as well as Crisis Core using my GC from the RB2 sale. Cost me $11.xx out of pocket for everything so I was pretty happy. Other than that, there were no other games on clearance I'm afraid.

I also got $.98 booster packs. Thanks to the original poster who posted this deal.

Also the preconstructed decks were $6.98.

Plus they had coupon books sitting in front of the counter that contained a $5.00 off $25.00 purchase (it expires on the 17th). So I got a really excellent deal on a bunch of boosters and decks.
 
Does TrUS pricematch? If they do, for you gc holder, you can buy Ninja Gaiden 2 for $ 10 by pricematching it with BestBuy ads.

TRU stopped pricematching YEARS ago.

heck, they don't even pricematch their own website!
 
[quote name='eau']Where in the store did you find the EOJ booster packs? Inside the R-Zone?[/QUOTE]

I found mine by the register when I was paying for Crisis Core in the video game section.
 
[quote name='eau']Where in the store did you find the EOJ booster packs? Inside the R-Zone?[/quote]

They were with the PS3 controllers/accessories.

You're right, the csr told me they stopped pricematching 2 years ago. So I just ask her to exchange the gift card (from soul bubbles) to cash since it's only $10 (CA Law). :)

Longer than that. I started working there April '05 and pricematching was gone before I started. And no, I no longer work there.
 
[quote name='eau']Where in the store did you find the EOJ booster packs? Inside the R-Zone?[/quote]

I didn't find any today. The lady told me that she has never seen them, but maybe she has just never noticed them. I'm not sure.
 
[quote name='regis100']I didn't find any today. The lady told me that she has never seen them, but maybe she has just never noticed them. I'm not sure.[/QUOTE]

My TRU had EoJ cards in two areas... some were in the R-Zone beneath the PS3 controllers & accessories, some were in the main store with the Pokemon, Yugioh, sports cards, etc. I grabbed about a dozen booster packs.
 
[quote name='prim4444']Only clearance drop I can update for Monday 1/19 is PS3 Nascar 09 dropping to $30.00 from $39.99.[/QUOTE]

Wow, the TRU game clearances have really gotten dry the last few months. It used to be every few weeks a new bunch of games were clearanced.
 
[quote name='tomwaits1']My TRU had EoJ cards in two areas... some were in the R-Zone beneath the PS3 controllers & accessories, some were in the main store with the Pokemon, Yugioh, sports cards, etc. I grabbed about a dozen booster packs.[/QUOTE]

Where were the Pokemon, Yugioh.etc cards located in your store. My store I guess did a remodel and after searching I couldn't find this aisle. I should have just asked an employee :cry:

They should be located in the front seasonal area of the store.

Seen it at Toys R Us in Ontario, City of Industry, and Fullerton in CA.[/QUOTE]

Thx for my info.

Confirmed. I picked up a copy way back in October.
 
Well it's not quite a clearance price but it was a mark down. My TRU marked Mass Effect down to $19.99 this past Monday. Sorry if this is in the wrong area.

That is pretty much the standard price everywhere but thanks.
 
I'm considering picking up some packs, but I don't really plan on getting the game. ebay doesn't show much of selling market either. You guys selling them of someplace or are you just hooked on EoJ? Or just holding on until something/someone wants them?
