CAGiversary!

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

I saw these tags behind the counter but most of the games were gone already:

MGS 3:Snake Eater $5
Gun $5
Mark Echo $5
God of War $5
Godfather $5


All PS2 of course
 
I'm guessing the answer is no as I can't find anything on their website, but does TRU have a price drop guarantee?

Edit: Never mind, I just called my store and they said they will do that.

Yup most if not all toyrus hold all Mature games behind the counter even if its on clearance. Gems could be missed just because of this policy.
 
didn't find any "Clearance" at my tru lol. I did get a Nyko Xbox 360 face plate that come with customizable paper and software though for 5$ which is alright since i'm in need of a new face plate. They also have a ad posted 435$ (100$ off) for 40gb ps3 system with a dvd play remote a charge dock and 1 game + 1 blu ray movie of choice if you use sony card that actually a good deal 200$ off 335$ total for 40gb ps3 with 1 game and some extra =p
 
Time to help the cause again, since this is a pretty major drop. As primm mentioned, it is a re-clearance deal, though a few titles are new. Also, very YMMV on availability of some titles; my store lists 2 copies of FFIII DS yet we have none, though it'd be a good deal if you can find any copies as they are now 9.98.

If anybody really cares about our crappy selection of PC games, a bunch are on clearance also but you won't care unless you're buying for an 8-year old. Seriously, I can post a list at a later date if requested. Cheers!
 
[quote name='Ragekod']Thanks for the list, I'll go check out the toys r us in the afternoon when I get some sleep :oldman:[/quote]

Keep in mind these prices go into effect on Monday, not today.
 
I'm going back today to use the coupon but Ninety Nine Nights was 19.90 at two locations so the price on that one seems to be very YMMV.
 
I'd try Final Fantasy III at $10 but my store was OOS even when it hit $20.

And to think that (most) TRU stores usually had a solid amount of good stuff around when video games went clearance 3-5 years ago, now it seems as if your lucky to find more then little to nothing good on clearance at TRU.

Im sure there is a few things that add to that outcome. Hoarders for one, then like you I have just noticed in general that the stock they carry has shrunk so maybe they are keeping it to a minimum to reduce costs of the stuff sitting around and storage etc.

Who knows, I just know I have not found anything really decent since the DMC SE went to $5

My store I hit up has some of the games that are on clearance but this location always seems to miss out on drops... Basically anything I am waiting on a drop for will be gone because there has to be an insider that snags the good stuff as soon as it drops because they had 5 of those DMC Anniversay sets and I went the day they were listed here as dropped and they sold out and the guy told me someone went in as soon as they opened and purchased them all... :roll:
 
Yeah, I'm not a fan of hoarding. I've never bought anything that I didn't intend to keep for myself. I have bought extras for my brothers to save them a trip out, but I've never bought extras with the intention of making a profit on eBay.

I don't feel this community exists as a means to put money in my bank account. I don't want to screw CAGs in my area from getting theirs. If I see extras of whatever I buy, the first thing I do is let people on here know so they can enjoy the cheap games as well.

That guy is a D-bag! I mean get a life, seriously. If you're able to go in to a store when they first open and buy up a bunch of copies of games, wtf do you do for a living so you're able to afford those games AND leave/work whenever the hell you want? Ugh, some people irk me to no end.

I would say that the store you normally shop at should be considered a last resort when it comes to games. Try and find a store somewhere else and just go there. Hopefully the turd monkey who normally rapes your store won't be able to go to that one. You can't be two places at once, now can you?

I think that as you go further in life you'll see that people with the higer paying jobs also have higher flexibility. It's the ones who work at lower-paying jobs that have almost no work-hours wiggle room.

Sometimes when I see extras I end up buying some or all of them. Last year I picked up around 4 or 5 copies of Tales of the Abyss that had been sitting around for the longest time - making 1 trip out for myself then a trip a month later. By then anyone from here in the local area would have had enough time to pick them up. I traded them all (minus 1 for me) on here to other users who got shafted in their areas.

Food Service Industry FTW! Shifts start at night usually leaving plenty of morning/afternoon time to CAG!
 
I guess I'll be picking up some 360 games for me to play later when I actually own a 360, seeing as Black, Metal Slug Anthology, and Taito Legends 2 were all purchased within the last 3 weeks and I feel bummed out that I paid more than $10 bucks on all of them now. *sigh*

Whatever, go MICRO CENTER COUPON!
 
[quote name='hostyl1']^Dont forget, there is supposed to also be a B2G1 on DS games next week too![/QUOTE]

Wow, thanks for the tip! Now to find some other clearance DS games that I want!
 
I just looked at this thread, and it so happens that I bought Oblivion for $20 earlier this afternoon. Will TRU refund the difference to me on Monday?
 
gj,

They will refund you. I've bought clearance titles a week before the prices dropped and went back and always got the difference.
 
Going to my local TRU to check for Oblivion and Godfather f/ PS3. With drops coming monday hopefully I can pick up some good CAG for this new 80gb dealy.
 
For PS2 item 937147 "Game w/gift packaging", the titles available at my store for this generic SKN are Raw Danger (follow-up to Disaster Report, a catastrophe-survival game) and Art of Fighting Anthology...not great but not horrible at $5...I think. I haven't actually played either.
For the GBA "Game w/gift packaging" all we have is one copy of Ravemaster. At $10, I'd recommend passing unless you're a huge fan of the anime.

well if you have such an elite job why don't you leave the cheap games for the people that really need them.
 
Grabbed VT3 for PS3 at the TRU on White Plains and Bruckner in the Bronx.

Bay Plaza had a bunch of VT3 also (Bruckner only had one left)
 
I picked up dead rising today for $10, and I'm not sure if this has been mentioned in this thread yet, but eternal sonata went back up to $39.99 in store.
 
Picked up Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz for $5.00. I also scanned Crusin and Spongebob Krusty Krab and they are not on clearance (I thought they had a good chance of being marked down).
 
Well, it is confirmed, but there were slim pickings of anything good. I settled on the last copy of Far Cry (360) for $5. I almost picked up on of about 20 copies of Prey, to replace my beat-up GS copy from a few years back.
 
I went to the Port Charlotte, Florida store at 10am and they had none of the listed clearance games available unless some of the employees took first dibs on those games. :roll:
 
I was only looking for either Virtua Tennis 3 or Def Jam Icon for the ps3 - didn't have either. I didn't need either one anyway. :p
 
Hey everyone, I just got back from work. Found out that starting 6/27, 20% extra on all clearance will be starting up again. Hold on to those receipts!!
