Io hit the nail on the head perfectly. They really never have any sales, their clearance is always YMMV.

But do they ass rape you over trades, harass you about magazine subscriptions, sell you open games as new or bother you the moment you walk in the door? No. They are just kind of there. I never expect to buy a game at Wal-Mart. Just because they don't have deals or clearance doesn't make them a bad retailer though. That makes them a non-issue.
As for Circuit City, it sucks for speedy and Cheapy, but CC is just doing what they feel is right about people swiping and posting the ads before they are ready to release them. It's great for us, but they are a multi-million dollar company trying to protect itself.
Gamestop for the win.
