I was searching through Best Buy's site the other night and found their Outlet Center.

Anyway, I checked for game deals on there and this seemed like the best deal on there, since a new 360 wireless controller still goes for $49.99, right?

Viva Pinata: Party Animals & 360 wireless controller: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage...uced&lp=20&type=product&cp=1&id=1218031265657

Since it's on their Outlet Center, it's essentially a closeout, so it's limited to whatever stock they have available.

Aside from this deal, they have Sid Meier's Civ Rev for DS for under $11 and some 3rd party(React) PS2/GC/Xbox DDR mat for $2.49. Those were the only other deals that really stuck out from the gaming section to me.

I didn't see any thread posted for their Outlet Center, so I figured I'd start this one. If it's a repost, feel free to merge this.

What is with people not searching lately? I originally posted this deal back in January.

And now yours. This deal has been posted 6 times! Sorry if I'm being a dick, but I found all of these just by typing in "Party Animals" in the forum search. It's there for a reason people! Just bump one of the older posts instead of creating 6 similar ones.
 
I searched 'Viva Pinata Party Animals Best Buy', which DID bring up the 'YMMV Best Buy Deals thread', but that thread was 90-95% yappity yap and no concise, centrally contained list.

Excuse me for not searching beyond 1-2 pages(@ 50 posts per page), but if it's not in the first 1-2 pages I tend to think there IS no thread with such a deal.

So, pardon me for not searching for 3 hours. Besides which, I listed OTHER deals on the same section of Best Buy's site besides this deal in the OP of this thread.

Sorry for coming across like an asshole, but it's just extra frustrating for me because I posted the deal first. It's funny at the same time though. For it to be posted 6 times one would think this was the deal of the century.
 
Thanks to the OP. I haven't seen this posted in recent memory, and I post here a lot, so even if it IS a repost, it's been long enough for a new thread to be justified without clogging up the list.

This is a pretty good deal, considering you can keep the new controller and then just sell the game for a few bucks.
 
[quote name='IAmTheCheapestGamer']But it's dropped in price by $10 since you first posted it. :razz: That makes it different. ;)[/QUOTE]

+ 1 to you.
 
Now kiss and make up.

It is a better deal now than it was before but you still pay tax and shipping. The OP might want to change the title to reflect that.
 
If you don't like the game you can always trade in it and probably make up for the tax...or if you have a few other games to trade in, get the power up trade and make it sweeter.

None available in my area(s) for pick up, but it still seems it will ship from their warehouse.
 
It comes out to $37.28 with shipping and tax to me. A new wireless controller is $37.49 at Amazon, but I've got double ECA I can use right now, which works out to $29.92 shipped. So it's $7.36 for the game with the bundle. Hmm. I don't think I really care about this game, so I'll probably just go with Amazon on the straight up controller.
