Ha, I saw that this thread was updated and thought, "I have to see what brave soul is venturing out today in search of deals!" :lol:
 
My office is closed, so I'm dealing with work issues from other offices from home. I'm sure as heck not going out in this weather, since it's going from fugly to uber-fugly out there pretty quickly.

No deal is worth risking life and limb for, let the emergency reps, the road crews and the utility companies be the only ones out there.

[quote name='KillerRamen']I wanna buy :br: Alice in Wonderland for $10 today, but it's way too scary outside. :cry:

Stay safe everyone![/QUOTE]Mine's out for delivery from Amazon. Since things are fubar out there, I doubt anyone's out there picking it up. If things are better tomorrow, and it's likely they won't be, trek out then, otherwise wait for Thursday. If you're really worried about it, make an in-store pickup order for it, and when you go to pick it up, return it and rebuy it with the coupon.
 
Yeah, it's getting pretty bad out there. I took a stroll to the Olive Street for shits and giggles since I needed a quick break while working from home today and man it's pretty brutal now. When I was coming back from my stroll, who did I see? The mailman! He didn't have the balls to drive down my street though (And I don't blame him). He just got out and walked around the entire street. I thought that was pretty amusing as most other mailmen wouldn't likely have bothered.
 
I carried about half my mail route today and my P O S mail truck slid off the road and I had a guy chain me up and yank me back onto st. denis street in Florissant. I figured at that point F it, I will deliver double mail tomorrow. I at least made an attempt to it. Half the Florissant Post Office didn't even show up.
 
Well it is good that you are okay. I guess that saying about the mail isn't true. Glad because mail isn't worth someones life. I'm surprised mail was delivered around here in the IL side.
 
It is true to an extent, we make the attempt to deliver it all but if the city/county can't clear the streets there isn't much we can do. Add in about 30 sick calls in our office and tons of mail did not go out.

I can say though that is only the 2nd time in 11 years on my route I did not finish it, both times were because roads were not cleared.
 
Target in St Charles on Mexico Road had an open box 4gb Xbox 360 with Kinect for either $210.01 or $201.01 (I forget which, but I think it was $201). The box was pretty beat up, so I can't be sure of the condition of the system/sensor.
 
If anyone is looking for The Fight or The Shoot, Fenton Target has about 5 copies of each for $19.99. They're not in the normal electronics clearance, they're still on display in the seasonal section (back left corner of store) that is currently in the what I like to call, the "let's be like Sam's/Costco" section. If you go to the back there is a gaming section there with those titles, and the Mario chess/Yahtzee sets.
 
The Starcraft 2 CE count at Fenton Target increased today from 2 to 3 copies (all now in the standard electronics clearance section.) Also there was a 360 Prestige Edition of BLOPS for $12X.XX.
 
Not sure how good this is but Big Bend Sams has Darksiders and Dante's Inferno for $12, and Medal of Honor for $19. All on 360.
 
I picked up one of these RockBand gaming storage Ottomans today, listed at $179 at Kohl's.

Costco at St Peters has them for $49 dollars. the 2 other stores still have them marked at $89 for some reason. I have to say this is a damn nice storage container and really heavy duty for 50 bucks. They still had maybe 8 left this afternoon.

I went by Fenton Target around 2 pm today and unless someone stashed it, all 3 SC 2 CE's from last week are gone.

Also they still had a couple of MvC 3 LE's left on both systems.
 
yeah I checked the store locator a couple days ago when I saw it on SD but none of them showed up within driving distance quick for me. I saw Arnold Limited Availability, but I have never had any luck with that being in stock when it says that.
 
Store locator was showing Fenton out of stock and Arnold with limited availability on Monday evening, when I found my copy at Arnold.

Yesterday, both Fenton and Arnold were showing limited availability, and this morning, both are showing as out of stock.

I've checked with multiple zip codes to try and cover all the ones in the St. Louis area, though now all of them are showing as out of stock.
 
Did anyone go to the South County WM MvC 3 tournament on Monday night? I wanted to go but I was 2.5 hours south visiting family for my birthday.
 
I know chances are this is a no but anyone see a LE version of MvsC3 on the PS3? I have one on the 360 but like with SFIV I would like one to play on the PS3 now. I was able to get a copy of SFIV LE for the PS3 however when I did the codes were all outdated. I should have known I would want this for both and ordered both but I didn't.
 
I am the electronics manager at the Kirkwood Walmart and just wanted to let everyone know that we will be having a Tournament for Killzone 3 next Monday on 2-21-11 starting at 10 p.m. The game will be available for purchase after midnight. If you want to play in the tournament the prize will be a copy of Killzone 3 for first place. We will be starting a sign up sheet to determine interest on Friday 2-18 in the electronics department. If you have any questions you can send me a pm
 
Anyone still looking for marvel vs capcom 3 special edition Walmart in woodriver has 5 on each system still.
 
[quote name='KillerRamen']Ultimate Electronics is going out of business. There's a couple of stores in the St Louis area and they're all closing their doors. I don't think any of the St Louis stores have any video game stuff anymore, but they do have quite a bit of TVs and stuff.

http://www.ultimateelectronics.com/[/QUOTE]There's four UE stores in the St. Louis area:

* Gravois Bluffs (185 Gravois Bluffs Rd, out by Gravois Bluffs Target)
* Mid Rivers Mall (301 Costco Way, out by St. Peters Costco)
* 14850 Manchester Rd. / Ballwin, MO
* 5925 N. Illinois Road / Fairview Heights, IL

The discount on TVs right now is tiny, and by the time it gets close to being reasonable, people will have bought up the good stuff already.

There's a thread in the Deal Discussions forum talking about it.
 
yeah I walked through Mid rivers last weekend when it was 10-30% and it was meh, typical everything marked back up to full price and then hardly nothing off like Circuit City when it got liquidated. If you are lucky enough to be there the day it hits 50-60% you might find some good stuff
 
By then, 99.999% of the good stuff will be gone. You might luck out and find some random items, though when items get 20-40% off retail, most people bum-rush the place and clean it out. I can usually find pricing like that any time I want it between Amazon, 6ave, OneCall and some other places I can find.
 
When I was at the one on 5925 N. Illinois Road / Fairview Heights, IL most the people walking out were walking out with nothing. I thought about getting a 3d tv from there but all of them were still really high and just said 3d ready. I have not read much up on 3d tvs so was not sure about the 3d ready stuff. Also want to get one of them that you can use the movie theater glasses.

Anyway I still see stuff being there when they hit 50 and 60% off however it will all be upto as the tvs were only 10-20% off when I was last there.

Also I found out why the Walmart in Woodriver IL has copies of Marvel VS Capcom 3 Special Edition instock still. They have now 4 of each system and it was because they found a box of them they didn't know they had. So if anyone is still looking for them they are now down to 4 on each system and it is the woodriver IL walmart.

If the "3D Ready" ones were Mitsubishi DLPs, then what that means is that you have to buy a $400 kit that comes with a converter box and 2 glasses. I've never seen the kits go on sale and I'm not sure where you can buy extra glasses and I'm not sure if any of the 3rd party ones work with Mitsubishi. Another thing to keep in mind is that the converter box only allows for only one 3D Source. So if you have a PS3, Xbox 360, DirecTV w/ 3D and a 3D Blu-Ray player you would probably have to keep switching them out depending on what you want to do. Sony has a similar thing for some of their TVs, but I think it's just an external IR thing. I haven't really looked into the Sonys because they're so expensive.

SamsClubs in St Louis do sell passive LED 3DTVs from Vizio. The ones I've seen at the St Charles store cost about $999 (42 inch) and come with four pairs of glasses. SamsClub also sells them in a multi pack for $150 or something like that, but apparently Real3D glasses work just fine.

However, the reviews of it kinda turned me off. http://reviews.cnet.com/flat-panel-...0sv/4505-6482_7-34453122.html?tag=mncol;lst;2

It seems that for the time being active glasses + plasma is the best way to go and that's what I ended up doing (my 42" Panasonic cost $799). I'm sure Passive 3D will get better this year.

Also, the St Peters Borders has started their Store Closing Sale. I'm not sure when Chesterfield and Ballwin start to shut down, but it's probably pretty soon.

Edit: I don't know if anyone is still looking for the Marvel vs Capcom 3 SE, but the Wal-Mart in St Charles has 3 for Xbox 360 and 4 for PlayStation 3.

Thanks for the info. I will check out that review and others when I go to buy one. I think one maybe 2 of the tvs were sony. I only saw 3 maybe 4 and all said 3d ready so I'm going to guess that all are the same.
 
There were two copies of MvC3 SE for PS3 at the Target on Manchester in Ballwin. I didn't see any 360 copies. They also had a bunch of The Fight and The Shoot on clearance for $20. Hopefully they drop soon!

I was just there and saw those two PS3 copies there too and saw two of the 360 ones right underneath the PS3 ones. They are actually behind where they store the extra copies of games so they aren't in plain sight which is why they are probably still there. Got my copy coming in on Tuesday so left them there for someone else to pick up. They will probably be gone quick though.

Yeah I meant to say I didn't look for the 360 version as I was just walking by and glanced down. But I don't think the SE fit into the locked cases on the fronts of the shelves that Targets use, that is why they are kinda hidden.
 
If anyone is looking for Fallout NV CE (on 360) or AC: Brotherhood CE, the Fenton Gamestop has 6 copies of the Fallout NV CE on 360, 2 AC: B CE's on each system, and a Bioshock 2 CE for PS3.
 
Just walked out of Microcenter in Brentwood. They had one copy of MVC 3 special edition for 360 left, almost bought it just to sell but thought twice, i hid it behind the PS3 copies of CODBLOPS if anyone wants to grab it
 
I'm starting to think this area has a big target on its back. What type of damage did everyone get for the storm last night? I'm in granite city and from what I have been told my town has been all over the news with the worse of it.
 
I remember the hailstorm of 2001, I lived in Florissant right off of the Washington exit in Grandview apartments. I had a freezer full of Hail the size of baseballs(some bigger), both of my cars were totaled, all the windows smashed out.

I don't know what it is about St. Louis but you can go from 60 degrees to snow in about 30 minutes. I had a Tornado land on the bottom of my street maybe 4-5 years ago, I slept through the whole thing too.
 
Eureka Blockbuster has all their games 10% off, and they do have a decent selection of PS3 games. Not too much on Wii or Xbox, but it might be worth it if you work/live close. Some great Bluray deals as well.
 
South County Walmart had 1 PS3 copy of MvC 3 CE left as of 6 p.m. last night. Also they have a Fazoli's inside the store now!!!!!!
 
if anyone sees a DA 2 Signature edition laying around in a store let me know. I forgot to pre-order it like a dumb@ss. checked rock rd best buy and they didn;t have any. I read the thread that stores across the country got extra copies of them.

Thanks
 
Start calling Gamestops today and tomorrow. TECHNICALLY the 48-hour window for preorders expired at close last night so you might get lucky there. Since it's a special edition though some stores are going to hold them longer.

Also it looks like Walmart is having MLB The Show Home Run Derby contests Saturday around noon and a Homefront tournament starting at 10pm on Monday night. I think signups began like 1/2 hour before each event. 3

Both Fenton and South County Walmarts still have some stragler PS3 MvC 3 CE while I think Fenton Target had one left also.

Edit: I'll be at the Fenton Walmart for the Homefront launch trying to win a free copy.
