Splinter Cell: Conviction at Best Buy for $40, $30 with Reward Zone coupon

[aporter727]

Just snagged a copy of Splinter Cell:Conviction at Best Buy for $32 including tax. They're currently running a sale for $40, but they also have a $10 off reward zone coupon up on their site thats good until the 19th. It states that it's not good on sale prices, but it seems some cashiers don't care too much. The woman I presented the coupon to read through the whole thing, and still scanned it. I suppose it's worth a try in other stores as well. I've attached a screenshot of the coupon. You must be a reward zone member for this.

Well you can always get Iron-Man 2 or Skate 3 for $10 off with this coupon....

thats weird, why does the coupon have skate 2 on one and skate 3 on the other...definitely a typo!

Too Bad the coupon states "Not Valid on Sale Items". Though let this be a YMMV on SC:C for $30.

Though from the sound of it, that this is a Price Drop to the $40 MSRP and Best Buy has it as a 'Sale'. Sooo....Hopefully next week the MSRP at Best Buy will be $39.99 and then the coupon will work with out any possible hassle.

Thanks OP. I was able to get the coupon to work on Splinter Cell with no problem. Pretty sure the cashier just read enough to make sure it went with the game.

Nice to see someone else cashed in on this. Looks like This game is going to be $37 next week at Target in case anyone can't get it this week at Best Buy.

It's $41.99 new at Gamestop (shut up and ask for a sealed copy) so $40 isn't the deal of the century.

YMMV!!! I've tried doing this before, but the coupon won't scan on top of the sale price. Then if the cashier reads the coupon they will notice the coupon won't work if the item is on sale.

(Although my friend tried the same thing and the cashier was dumb enough to get the manager to override it)

I didn't make this post because it was on sale for $40. I made it to tell other CAGs that it seems if you can get the customer service rep to scan the coupon for $10 off, then the price will be $30. Is $30 better than $40 at Gamestop? I think so...

This is for people who didn't get in on that deal... obviously.

My coupon scanned perfectly fine. No need for an override.

Like the OP mine scanned fine with no override. You may have just had a bad printout.

Oh...if this isn't official, then no way I'd get it. I have to argue with people at Best Buy just to get the advertised sale.
