Wow, nothing, just nothing for Ultra street fighter 4. Lame. Hoping for a B2G1 or it drops in price quickly, but I have a feeling as it's the third reprint and having already been released digitally, that actual physical copies will be tough to find very quickly.

 
I have a slim ps3 that's on its way out. Don't even like playing it cuz of all the noise it makes. Might do the trade in.. Just wish it was for Ps4, not Xbox One
 
So does this mean that if you trade in an Xbox 360 slim that you get the $150 plus the actual trade bonus?

Holy shit i just had the worst experience of my life.

Went to bestbuy to buy ps4 none of shelves I tell him to go into back he comes back 5min later does a pow wow with two buddies and then proceeds to deny me because Sonys end wasn't activating the serial numbers.

2hrs later, called sony, tweeted bestbuy.. Random dude rings it up after the others were dicks and bam! Finally got the sumbitch w/killzone for $399 +tax

In the end calling sony support will get you some Indian lady trying to get you a sony cc.. DAFAQ.

People think they are getting more than $150 because the word "minimum" keeps getting used incorrectly.
Click to expand...
No, it's not. The $50 is from he coupon, the other $100 is the minimum from the console. The minimum is for the 250-GB 360 in Good "nothing missing" condition and no controller. However, if you provide controllers, you get $10 per-controller. So, if you have a 360 and one controller (which basically everyone with a 360 would), you're getting $160, more than the minimum. The word's not incorrectly used, people just aren't realizing what the offer it, I guess.

No, you get a $50 coupon for Bone purchase, plus the TIV (which is $100 minimum on a 250-GB 360).

 
Bummer still no trade in bonus. At this point I'd be happy with a 50%. Hey stupid question but do they ever advertise the trade in bonuses on their website? I never look cause I already rely on this page for that info lol.

 
Silly question regarding the Xbox 360 trade in. Could I trade in towards the Xbox One and get the $150, then turn around and return/exchange for a PS4? Essentially getting the PS4 for $250 plus tax?

$50 of that $150 is a coupon that (I assume) is only good for the Xbox One, so you would lose that $50 if you returned the Xbox One.

Potential for a pretty good deal if they'll match the Target $50 gift card w/ console purchase.
$150 trade, Mover's Coupon, gift card....
Not sure they'd PM that deal and let you use the coupon, but worth a shot.
Click to expand...
Defintely worth the shot but coming from someone who regularly scores both giftcard & bundle pm`s @ BB I`d suggest you not attempt the coupon w/o fillers items. If they match they normally reduce the system by $50 & sell the $50 BB. It`s hard to "create" a gc offer in the system so that`s why it`s done like this.

So far this year alone CAG threads have reported good success in getting BB to match B2G1 from target, 2 for $50/$60 TRU bundles & $10 & I believe buy 2 get a $50 gc offers from TRU. It`s YMMV but success rates have been better than 50/50 with it being a $400 purchase even better odds.
 
Atta boy best buy - increasingly crappy ads will certainly get people in your store. -_-

Do you think they'll bring back the $303 TIV for the weekend??? ;)

I'm still living on that rush from last Sunday! :)

Getting $50 XBL card and a $40 USPS movers coupon GC made it even better.
 
I have an xbox 360 Gears of War Edition (320GB I believe) and a slim 260GB PS3.  Both are collecting dust since I have a PS4 and XBOX One and I would liketo trade them in.  Has anyone tried trading in both to Best buy and getting 2 $50 coupons? I would not mind another Xbox One for the Family room.

Just some math for those that are curious -- Target changed their Promo with the $1 preorder cards from taking off $15, to a 30% off percentage.

In terms of a game at MSRP of $59.99, it's actually better since it's $18 off (or $17 if you factor the $1 preorder card cost). Which automatically makes this better than Best Buy's GCU (which is of course 20%), except that it's a limited selection, and GCU applies to all games (and you get BB points and etc).

If you PM an eligible game to bring it down to $50, then the 30% will take off exactly $15, which would match the old Target Promo. Anything lower than $50 PM will reduce the savings, to mitigate Target's losses.

$60 -> $18

$50 -> $15

$40 -> $12

Either way, a PM and a 30% is still damn good. Just have to remember to apply it to an eligible game, get an eligible pre-order card, and don't mention the 30% Promo. The fact that it's automated makes it better IMO than BB, since if you PM at BB, you might have a tough time trying to get 20% GCU to work on top of it (unless it's automated too, I don't know for sure).

Yeah this is a good deal. Back when they had the $15 off by buying a $1 reservation card, I pm'd a bunch of games first then got $15 off and traded them back to target and made some $. I'm pretty sure we'll be able to price match in this deal too but the problem is I don't want these ea games. If battlefield 4 goes down to $40 at amazon or something, then that would be great.

Well besides the PS4 version the X1, PS3 and 360 versions are under $30. If you want Battlefield 4 PS4 preowned my local walmart was selling it for $29.96 so yours might be to.

Even cheaper online $28.16

I'm sure you can easily get two coupons.... What i'm wondering is can you stack two of these coupons and get $100 off the Xbone.

I assume you mean under for $40 for Battlefield 4 on PS4 because it's going for $28.33 for xbone right now one amazon.

I'm curious to see how long this coupon is good for.
I don't need another Xbone right now, so hopefully I can hang onto it until BBY offers some other deal.

Whenever they price match an item, their POS prevents any coupons from stacking.

In the past, using any GCU coupons with a price match would never work unless the manager was willing to override the price to what the final total would be after both discounts.

This has already been known. What is unknown is the other in-store titles that the ad mentions.

Probably should of added that there seems to be no others according to the website selection. Just click deals, buy and save then you get all the titles. Though Battlefield Hardline isn't included which might be a red flag that the weekly ad is wrong or the website is missing some titles.

Well, still a decent deal with the $150 trade and the Mover's coupon. However I'd like to wait and see if that $50 trade coupon has to be used the same day or not. It would be great if it had a window of a couple weeks/ months, so we could possibly use it down the road when BBY offers something extra with a purchase of an Xbone. The $50 MS card from a couple days ago would've been enough for me.
 
So the buy 1 get 1 25% off PSN/XBOX cards is in-store only? Tried online with both e-mail codes and physical and neither show discount. Would of bit if they did online but the closest target is about 15-20 minutes away so it's not worth it in gas spent.

EDIT- Will Best Buy PM the Target 25% thing? Cause i have $20 worth of reward certifs. Might make that drive worth it.

It may be time for me to unload my 360. Only problem is I can't find the plastic door that covers up the hard drive slot? Any chance they'll still take it?
 
Also, the buy one get one 25% off works on Nintendo eshop cards and others (google, facebook, etc.) I just wish there carried $10 Psn cards.
 
going to pick up two $50 PSNs. Get Destiny Guardian edition digitally. 89.99 so 10 bucks left over it should cost 87.50. Not too bad

 
So, the question is, do I care enough about this to deal with the Target staff, so I can get $50 in LIVE money for $42. Sometimes, the deal's just not worth the hassle, and this is right on the fence.

the coupon will most likely expire on the last day of the trade in promotion which is the 9th

 
Someone should definitely try this along with trying to buy a One with the $50 coupon along with a Target PM and the mover's coupon 0_0. Good deal of it works XD
Almost forgot that it can be combined with the ibotta app. Extra savings

No problem with Steam cards on this deal, aside from someone hiding them behind some PSN cards.  Guess what dude?  I put them out in the open in the right spot!

 
Just saw in Target 20 off COD ghost(xbox one, ps4, ps3,360) with a pre order of destiny or COD. You should be able to PM walmart and get it for (20, 9,2,2)
