Its not quite as organized as Bf but there are a lot of 25-50% off sales. Plus with stores that resell opened merc for 25-75% off(Military Exchanges do a lot of this) there is a whole lot more items in those bins.

they never sell anything cool. Its all like x-mas related products that are on sale. Like ornaments and candy and stuff like that

Seasonal stuff get marked down, but regular prices seem to get jacked up due to the fact many people have those gift cards. It needs to be spent at a particular store so there's little point in reducing prices.

i can get me plenty of holiday candy and too many ornaments than i know what to do with, but hey there scooby doo, so i could careless. i am going to be keeping an eye out for these sales. the weird thing is, the weekly ads start the day after christmas this year. i don't remember that happening in my personal shopping experiece (i e the last 5 years)

I believe the "after holiday" sales are pretty good sometimes. Often, games drop in price at the start of the new year. Just something to be on the lookout for.

With the crappy buisness going on so far, keep on eye out over the next week, and especially after xmas

Post-Christmas deals are some of the best.

 

[schultzed]

Its hit and miss especially on games.

I think most retailers actually try to hold up prices on many items in the early aftermath (for a week).

Why, people come in with gift cards, returns and exchanges and they try to get some higher values sales in.

In my experience, January is when you start to see some panic . . . UbiSoft giving away Splinter Cell with Prince of Persia started about Jan. 5th last year.

I agree, January usually is when the really good markdowns/sales start to happen.

BG&E for $10 happened in January last year.

EB had a lot of great stuff on sale 12/26 last year. If they are having a good sale this year, though, it hasn't been posted yet (just that thread about coupons and the deals are pretty weak).
