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

[quote name='YoshiFan1']It doesn't work on me either, unless I happen to find other items on clearance that I didn't know about.

The worst is when a store clearances an item down to under $5, then the game goes greatest hits/platinum hits and they restock it at $19.99 or $29.99. Who was going to pay $20 for Hot Shots Golf on PSP at Sears when a few weeks before it was restocked it was $2.97.[/quote]
Seriously. Most people don't know about clearances though and aren't very organized in their shopping. I know plenty of people that think $20 is a decent price for a new DVD, and I can't believe it. Of course, these people have maybe 30 movies on their shelf and most of them are really crappy fullscreen ones from WM $5 dump bin. I mean I've used the bin myself, but most of my stuff I think is pretty good stuff, and it's because I know how to wait and watch.

As far as actually buying once I'm in the store, BB got me a few weeks back; I went in for penny guides and saw Metalocolypse S1 and Venture Bros S2 for $15, and had to have them. Mostly had to have Venture Bros. I've seen [AS] stuff go cheap before on Amazon, but usually not Venture Bros so I bit.

Of course it was on sale, not clearanced, but not full-price either.
 
It doesn't work on me either, if they really think I am going to buy other merchandise just because I am in the store and ZOMG I cannot leave with nothing because I made a trip to the store they are underestimating. In fact if a store doesn't have the clearance merchandise I want I will likely leave disappointed and remember they might not have what I want when I go out there again, and just maybe I won't even set foot in the store again, especially if they are known to not have a sufficient stock of clearance.

But I can see why they do it, most people who come to TRU bring kids, kids want stuff when they are in a toy store, most parents here will do anything to get their kids to shut up so they buy them whatever they want leading to another sale.

It also helps that most of these stores are in a plaza with many other stores over here, so its not like you are making a trip just to go to one store. One TRU here is like within a few feet of a circuit city.
 
Major haul from Greensburg PA TRU today:

360 - All $8 with 20% off
Virtua Tennis 3
Saints Row
Condemned
VGA Cable
20 gb HD - $20, only one in the bin. Almost passed out when I saw this one, will go well when I grab an Arcade system next month. Was just ready to grab a used one on ebay. Great savings.

PS2 $8
Yakuza - So in love with this game. Just buy it.

Everytime I figure the local TRU's are tapped out from this sale, I stop and see more stuff in bins. Today I saw lots of TH Am Wasteland 360, and a copy of Custom Robo DS in addition to the known DS games (Magical Starsign, Master of Illusions, Guilty Gear, EBA).

[quote name='prim4444']Hey, just wanted to let everyone know, another week with no changes.[/QUOTE]

darthno.ytmnd.com

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Thanks for the update prim :)
 
Off topic but it is TRU related. Has anyone seen :ds: Luminous Arc at TRU? I'm not sure if TRU carried/carries it at all but I had an impression that it did last year. Now I can't seem to find it.
 
[quote name='Pojo']Is Planet Puzzle League on sale? I've been waiting for a long, long time to get it. :\[/QUOTE]

It sure is. It seems to be one of the hardest games to find from this clearance. Good luck to you.

I've never seen it at the TRUs in my area. I've only seen it at BB and GS.
 
Just pulled in Zack and Wiki and Elite Beat Agents yesterday. Bin said 9.98, Got to the register and it was another 20% off of the clearance price, then I whipped out my 20% off coupons. $6.77 a piece. Can't complain about those prices.
 
has anyone found the medal of honor collection at $10. or the devil may cry anniversary at $5.

picked up the PSP headphones + remote today for $11.00 after 20% off (marked $12.98)

Edit: Sorry, I meant 20% off coupon. There was no automatic 20% off clearance item sale.

I found the DMC collecton like 6 months ago when it first dropped to $5

I'd imagine those are long gone from TRU
 
[quote name='MasterYensid']I found Looney Tunes Acme Arsenal for 9.98 clearance...Not sure if that was mentioned before or not.[/quote]

for which system
 
Went to a Toys R Us today and picked up Enchanted Arms 9.98 and Monster Madness 4.99 after buy 1 get 1 half off. Also paid for Beautiful Katamari 9.98 but they couldnt find the game.....they have the old ticket system.

Oh and i tried to get Disgaea 2 but it was still ringing up 29.99.....thought it was on clearance but i guess not. Im not having much luck with ToysRUs
 
I picked up 2x GameCube memory card 251 for $4.98 each last night. They weren't there the last few times I checked, so I guess they came from the back room. It makes me wonder what else is hiding in the back.
 
[quote name='torrel']for which system[/quote]

XBOX 360, but I am pretty sure I saw it for this price for PS2 as well. Might even include the PS3 or Wii version (if there is one), though I am not 100% sure.

custom robo... hot. I might cop that.
 
I just got a PSP, and was scooping out the clearance games. Is it worth trying to find Metal gear Portal Ops, LocoRoco, Pirates, or Def Jam? Are they like 360 Godfather easy to find or like Eternal Sonata hard to find?


Since I usually just ignore psp section
 
I haven't seen any of those games since Feburary and even then I went the first day the drops were posted and they only had 1 copy of MGS Portable Ops and Def Jam.

It's too bad you aren't looking for Every Extend Extra or Parrapa the Rappa. You could get as many of those as you want around here.
 
[quote name='Pojo']Is Planet Puzzle League on sale? I've been waiting for a long, long time to get it. :\[/quote]

not sure where you're from, but if you're from cali, i've been to almost every TRU in orange county, la county, and san bernardino county looking for planet puzzle league. lol, i had a personal vendetta with TRU looking for this one. not a single copy in sight.

i used the gs 25% off to get a used one for about 20 bucks. still not a bad deal for a pretty good game.

Actually, I am very interested in Parrapa (PSone day one purchase back in the day), I will do have a reason to stop by TRU.....Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

I was born in Greensburg, though i was raised in West Newton. But that was a while ago now.
 
Just FYI: The Toys R Us in East lansing, MI had Dance Dance Revolution Universe 1(no pad!, just the game) and Virtua Tennis 3 for 9.98 each for the Xbox 360, new.
 
I went to the TRU in lake Grove, NY. Nothing much of note. They had a clearance bin with a bunch of Def jam Icon PS3, Elite Beat Agents DS, some MArval Trading Card Game PSP, and some other stuff nobody reall cares about. In the actual R-Zone, I saw some Zelda Wii case things. I remember the mini backpacks were $9.98, and the Zelda triforce cd case was $2.50. I saw Every Extend Extra for $9.98. And I saw a few Chillstream PS3 controllers for $19.98.

I was sorta hoping to use the 20% off an item coupon I just got (fuckin post office), on something like Jeanne D'Arc but I didn't see anything I really wanted.
 
Today I picked up the 360 VGA for ~10$, Saints Row for ~10$, and the "Woody" 360 faceplate for 2$.
 
Any word yet on possible new clearance items for this Monday? It's been a good month or so since the last games were added to the clearance.
