"@Gamer Coupon Now Good on Sale Items

You asked for it and got it. Now there is even more value for our gaming customers that purchase @gamer magazine. Magazine coupons, effective June 1, are now good on sale prices. Coupons will still state that offers are NOT valid on sale prices so make sure your customers know that they can get value top of value!"

Hell Yes, come on $60 rocksmith sale, $40 is my insta buy price point. $25 for the cord and $15 for the game :D.

Also might buy batman if i could get it for $15 after coupon. (gotta justify the book buying).
 
Sonic Generations would have been a good one if everyone hadn't already pre-ordered at TRU/Amazon when it was $35. :\
 
[quote name='Bosamba']Thanks OP. I hope we see a sale on mortal kombat[/QUOTE]I guess you either missed the $30(after $10 coupon) price @ TRU the 2nd week after release or it was still OOS/hard to find.

[quote name='FlyingMonkey9']Hopefully we'll see Resistance 3 hit 29.99, it really didnt sell that well so its not out of the question[/QUOTE]Don't matter to Sony it aint dropping to $40 MSRP faster than Motorstorm Apo. they'll wait till 1st qtr 2012 for that but $30-$35 around BF I can see that.

[quote name='UNC5052']I hope these will stack with Black Friday prices if there are any deals on any of these games.[/QUOTE]usually everything is on sale BF but a $10-$20 won't make most CAG jump like it will a "casual" shopper but $30ish seems bout right.

[quote name='An J0e']Also might buy batman if I could get it for $15 after coupon. (gotta justify the book buying).[/QUOTE]WOW if this was the price you have been WAITING for you could've got it around this time last yr $15 after coupon or $10 sale price(not only @ BB either).
 
[quote name='Jodou']Sonic Generations would have been a good one if everyone hadn't already pre-ordered at TRU/Amazon when it was $35. :\[/QUOTE]

Might be able to get 2 more new games at $33.33 or $36.66 each. at targets buy 2 get 1

sonic gen is $50 there

add 2 more $50 for $100-------- $33.33 each
or one $50 one $60 for $110---- $36.33 each

:D just incase you had your eye on another game too. Kirby/ Battlefield/ Uncharted ext.
 
Err... Enuf, the way I worded Cabela makes it sound like it's the gun or survival adventures.

Maybe have it be Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2012 w/ Gun OR Cabela's Survival Adventures w/ Gun

Oh btw, valid dates: 10/30-11/23
 
"Keep this receipt in the event you don't get the next months mag & a gaming rep may allow you to use a store copy until you start getting yours in the mail."

This should be marked as YMMV, as I was not able to convince the employee to do this for me. I purchased the Unlock around 9/25... took two weeks to even show up in the system and have not received a magzine via mail. On one visit to BB I asked if I could get a magazine or use the coupon without buying it and was told no.
 
WOW if this was the price you have been WAITING for you could've got it around this time last yr $15 after coupon or $10 sale price(not only @ BB either).

I didn't have the money at the time and there were other games that had higher priority for me (I'm not the type who can afford to have a backlog, i get a game beat it and just don't play games till i buy another).

would get it now just so i'm ready for Arkham city after it drops in price.

Well that's useful. Also says they mailed me the Nov issue... we'll see though :/
 
I got screwed last month on Ico, I was moving and my Mag hadn't arrived yet and they refused to let me just use a coupon to grab it for 15 or whatever. Still regret not fighting it harder. I then moved to a town with no Best Buy within an hour drive so It really boned me hardcore.

Thanks for the tip! Mine looks just the same.

I signed up for GCU on day 1 and had yet to receive a magazine in the mail. Good to know that mine should be on its way now! I hated having to go to the store and explain that I wanted to use a coupon but had not gotten the magazine yet. I didn't get a lot of resistance, but it was still irritating for me to do.
 
Meh nothing too good id want to keep. I was hoping they would have something for the Uncharted 1/2 bundle.

Maybe grab R3 and MK when/if they go on sale.
 
That's a good deal on Rocksmith considering it just came out and I considered getting it at $80 ... but being a CAG, I just couldn't.

No, my corruption has just manifested itself in constant checking for games price to drop only to decide once they drop that I should hold off for $2 more or free shipping.

Its like it's having the opposite effect it has on everyone else. I'm buying games for cheaper, but buying alot less.

Whoah, my subscription expires Nov 1, 2014. I would just personally like to thank the cashier who didn't know what they were doing when they scanned both my subscription coupon and the subscription several times while checking me out "just to make sure it went through".
 
hopefully, resistance 3 goes on sale. i've been waiting forever for a good deal on that, especially since they fixed the move/sharpshooter controls.

My personal way of shopping is I'll pay full price if giving enough credit with the knowledge that I can still get the discounted price w/i 45 days anyways. So the end result is $40 for a title I want day 1 is good for me, weaker titles may need to see $20-$30 before I bite otherwise I just jump on the credit deal then play n trade fast(using the larger TIV's) which makes the game $10 or less. The I rebuy at my BF price somewhere along the line, p/u several of these during b2g1 or use a coupon deal that allows me to get 10% back in gc form. But hey there really is no "right" way to be a CAG just your way that saves/works for you.

I'd look for a $10 BF price for Batman AA though or a Batman AA & AC deal.

Hey, publikDefender
do u already own the move? I believe there was a $135ish price match avail. for the Doomsday bundle that would've fit in with the 5 for $100 deal so $25 credit + the -$15 MSRP was the best deal going at the time.
edit:the 50% off move items was/is better I gotta hit BB up this week & get another move controller/nav/Sharpshooter to add w/BF3 & use my free $10 instant gc coupon on top of it. $120 + tax for all of it & $20 credit for BF3 & the $10 for the coupon hella deal

Yeah, I mean, the store I tried it at said it would be stealing to let me do it and two different calls to BB and a post on their board did nothing to either get me a mag or get me the usage of the coupon. It's very YMMV.

Since the coupons only good until 11/23 - Black Friday won't come into play with this new set anyway.
 
[quote name='UNC5052']I hope these will stack with Black Friday prices if there are any deals on any of these games.[/QUOTE]

They wont stack with BF prices. The coupons expire on 11/23, the Wednesday BEFORE thanksgiving.

Bb in recent history had a sale on the games that are in this magazine. So let's say MK is going on sale for 40, then I can just the voucher and get the game for 25 bucks.

But then again, with recent history of Publishers releasing 'game of the yr', 'complete edition' 'ultimate edition' about 8-12 months after the release with all the dlc included, may better off holding off for just a little while longer.

LA Noire gets a complete edition in a mere 5 months after the release, and capcom's MVSC3 get the ultimate ediition in 8 months. I feel like almost every game good enough to milk the cow for second time gets a retail release.
 
[quote name='heyheyhey11'] . I feel like almost every game good enough to milk the cow for second time gets a retail release.[/QUOTE]

and those that aren't good enough try to get milked also. Yeah I'm looking at you Mr. 2 worlds 2.
 
I could wait for a Sonic generations sale to stack with the coupon as i really want that game. I already have resistance 3 so ita Sonic or nothing for me this month with the @ gamer coupons. As for people saying that resistance 3 sold badly while it hasnt done that well in the us so far we dont know the ww numbers right now. This game will hit 2 million in a few months like the other 2. There is just so many great games this fall that Many people wont be able to buy them all
 
[quote name='Enuf']yeah didn't find this out till after I posted. But that could bode well for December's coupons as long as there on time otherwise I'll be buying a mag in-store[/QUOTE]

Pretty sure they're just gonna start Dec's coupons in December, and there'll be a week to week+half in November with no coupons active. Doesn't make sense for them to stack for BF, and the stores don't usually get the mags in until the 26th/27th.
 
They expire before black friday :( there must be sales for these games in this months mag on black friday for them to do this. Hopefully Sonic goes on sale right away like the ico/gow collections did
 
[quote name='buckythekat']really hope they have Resistance 3 on sale at some point[/QUOTE]

I'll bite with the coupon if it hits $39.99 this month

Nice man, finally a way I can see where I stand with this Gamer mag thing. Good job, I would never have figured to do that "forgot password" move.
 
I'm going to rent Sonic. Already platinum'd Resistance 3 as a rental. Online was laggy as all can be at the time I played it. Did they patch it?
