*Update* I found scans of the RE 4 ad, link inside for CAGs requesting it

Oh my God, I hope no one really thinks that will work. First of all the ad, even if RE4 was a players choice game, is expired. Second of all RE4 isn't players choice! You're going to get laughed at.
 
The only way I could see this working is if you have the original ad and you combine it with an employee who is absent-minded...Which for Best Buy shouldn't be too hard, so it's worth a shot.
 
I should try to get an absent-minded meijers employee to do a price match. I mean, they scan groceries most of the time. What will they know about video games?

I should have pursued this . . . any one score on it?
 
They were going to give me a raincheck for this back when the ad came out but the computer wouldn't let them over ride the price. Didn't have time to wait and fuss around with a manager, so I took off. Otherwise, I would have had bought 2 RE4 for $30.

[quote name='yogi99']Where did you guys get this ads? Is it in the newspaper ads or the ads from bestbuy's store?[/quote]

It's a misprint from an ad a couple of weeks back. I'd be highly surprised if even one person got in on this.

Well i was able to get a rain check and after i did that. I talked to the manager and he said he would honor it. I guess we will all know when my BB gets 4RE in stock.

Holy Shit, I got this to work!!! It didn't work at BB, but then I showed it to a guy at CC for pricematching 110% and I got 2 copies for $11.50 each. Jrunt20x and Jerom from CC are my 2 new heroes. I love you guys.
 
Damn... I can't believe I didn't think this would work. Otherwise, I'd have kept that ad and tried it. I guess you never know until you try...

Congrats Pierre!:)

Did you get a print-out to work or the original?
 
[quote name='3QGojo']Did you have the scan of the ad to get that raincheck or the actual ad?[/quote]

Maybe if you went in with both . . . I can't get the scan of the ad to open . . . anyone have an address for the ad?
 
[quote name='screwkick']Not working, besides, wouldn't you need an original flyer?[/quote]

Yeah, but with a receipt scan and an ad scan . . . maybe . . . two crappy proofs are better than one.
