TRU Buy one clearance game get one 50% off - YMMV?

[thedragon]

Sorry if this has already been posted, but I didn't see it anywhere.
As the title said, buy one from the clearance bin at Toys R US th, get one for 50% off from the bin (The bin is clearly marked).

I picked up:
Samba de Amigo - Wii $5
Neo Geo Battle Coliseum - PS2 was also $5 but came in at $2.50 with the sale:

Total was $7.99 including tax. A bunch of random stuff in the bin, check it out

Very nice if you can find decent clearance games at your nearest TRU Has anyone else seen this in their TRU lately? I'm assuming this is new because I went to several locations a couple of weeks ago and did not see this.

Is it just me or does TRU never have any good clearence anymore? It's been a looong time since I've seen anything worthy of being picked up.

I asked about clearance games at my TRU a while back and was told that "we don't have clearance games". He told me that all they had were the low priced Wii games on the shelves...

Yeah, but the guy at my TRU was kind of clueless. He tried telling me that the prices on the "Buy one clearance game get one for 50% off" were already marked. That isn't really possible since what would be marked? They could never know which games you would pick and what would be 50% off, when it rang it up sure enough the register marked the sale automatically. The lesson is, employees aren't always experts on their own sales and sometimes you need to investigate for yourself.

I tend to agree....I use to find all kinds of good stuff and now it seems like slim pickings. ? Some of those old coupon deals back in the day were amazing.
