Damn, was just coming to post that pic, as I just saw it this morning. Yeah, rip our heart out is right TrU was my Disneyland growing up(although I went there rather often as well), and truly sad to see this place go. Sadly, most places from my childhood are gone, and I guess that's just life.

 

So many great memories, and one of my last was taking my son to buy the Wii there on the morning of release. He was just a baby then, but he still plays it rather often, as he missed out during it's heyday, as he was way to young to play back then.

 

Thanks TrU for all the memories.

So in that pic, our favorite giraffe is shown waving goodbye, with a suitcase at his side. The question is....where is he heading off to? That's a question that may be too troubling to ponder.

 

 

Goodbye Geoffrey the Giraffe, enjoy your retirement and thanks for the memories,

OMG....rip out our hearts, why don't you, sad giraffe? Did anyone get to take final pictures with him? (The stores said he would be roaming around in the final days for photo opps).

It's honestly a bit creepy walking around these shelled-out Toys R Us stores the last coupla weeks....feels like the zombie apocalypse or something.

Not my cup of tea but here you go....

Pick up alekines gun and abzu for $8 each

Yup....saw em both there. My store was still surprisingly packed with PS4 and XOne games this afternoon. Lots of Battlefront II's for $24. 

Gamestop has Far Cry 5 at $44.99 this week if you want to get BB to price match.

When your daughter comes to visit, or when you're daughter is born?  

Actually, that's a good point. His line could have been taken both ways....lol.

I tried to buy an orange/white 2DS XL at a store that had it for $45 but was OOS, but the price kept changing to the full $149.99 upon me going to my cart in the Target app, regardless of whether or not I was physically in the store. I was then told by the main electronics employee that they could only honor the $45 clearance price if the item was physically in the store: ordering it online or via the app would pull the inventory from a generic warehouse location, voiding the clearance price via location. I took screenshots to show my dilemma:

Kinda feel like giving up on the cheap 2DS dream at this point...much prefer the blue/black one anyway, but I don’t want to pay $150 for a handheld game system I won’t even have the chance to use once my daughter comes next month.

Interesting. The more I think about it, the more I think that the option to buy from the app at the reduced price I encountered on Friday (even though they were OOS) was only possible from the MANAGER's scanner, not mine....during my experience. Cause whenever I've been in a Target and been on my app when the item is OOS, it just says "out of stock" and gives me no option to order additional ones at the lower price. But the manager seemed agreeable to me ordering more from him if I wanted at the $45 price. I just decided to try the price matching first at another Target that actually had em in stock...which worked for me. The manager and another Electronics employee at the first Target even told me that any other store should have no problem price matching the $45, which *really* surprised me. Even said that if they had any issues with it at the 2nd store, I should tell them to call him. Incredibly nice guy. Wish all Target employees were like that. They didn't give me much trouble during price matching. A manager was called over....a brief discussion was had...and I got the approval.

 

And forgot to add, trchavez....congrats on your future daughter! 

This will at least cease those who acted like GCU Superiority Members from insulting the non-believers from time to time. They'll have to go back to checking for regular sales, like the rest of us plebeians.

Yo yo yo...."Mamma Mia" in 4K, y'all!!!

It was awhile ago but I found Hardline for $5 Clearance at a Wal-mart. YMMV but try there.

I got Battlefield 1 Revolution back in January for $13.20 but that was GwG. Battlefield 4 and Hardline have been for free in the past with Xbox as well. Cheapest I'm seeing is $15.99 with Elite membership to Gamestop but I haven't even seen 4 or Hardline available at Target at all

Thanks guys. I'll keep an eye out.

 

 

From Wario64, someone got this XB1 controller for $21. The Targets around me still have it at $70. Maybe someone else will have luck finding one at $21.

Thanks very much for this info. BS showed only two Targets in 25 miles that had them for $21...one just 2 miles from me. Stopped by tonight right before close and snagged one. Getting an Xbox One X in a couple of months and figure this might make for a nice 2nd controller. 

It isn't a budget TV you know. It's a high end TV that just happens to be clearanced out because new models are out. I'd just get it if you can get it for this price. Anyone that's saying this TV isn't good doesn't have it and is just being a picky snub about it.

Well, looking at reviews, it's considered an "entry level" 4K TV. That doesn't mean it's a bad TV, by any stretch. It was released in 2017, so it's not terribly outdated. At $79, it's almost certainly worth springing for, I agree...but as far as 4K TV's go, I am reading it is considered an entry/budget model. The HDR on it is considered very poor. But for someone looking to get into 4K cheaply,, it seems unlikely you could do better than this for right now.

 

Samsung 6290 Review:

https://www.rtings.c.../samsung/mu6290

I got the following a few weeks ago at Walmart Rotterdam NY
Persona 5 Steelbook $20
Donkey Kong Country Returns $5
Black Ops III $10
Two Worlds 2 $10
Brain Age Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day! $5
Pillars of Eternity Complete Edition $5
Mario Party 10 w/ Bowzer Amiibo $5
 
Awesome haul. Gave a few of the games to family & GF.

Great price on Pillars. Lowest reduced price I've seen at WM is $25, and don't think that was the CE.

Yeah I think I'm done with this deal. Found 4 copies of Other M at a store today, ran them through self checkout and was almost home free out the door until the receipt checker looked at my receipt and said 'this ain't right'. Called over LP who took the games out of my hand and got a manager to come over. Manager said 'we aren't selling these to you, we don't sell anything this cheap', took the games and my receipt to a register and refunded the 13 cents I paid. Then said something to another associate nearby about bringing them back to electronics to mark up to full price again. Not worth the hassle.

This is garbage treatment from WM. Once you pay for something, the transaction is over. What can they do, arrest you for paying?? If you had walked past them to your car, I wonder what would have happened. I agree that it's not worth the hassle in the end for a few games but it's the principle. When you pay for something and complete the transaction, IT'S YOURS.

Ten copies of sin and punishment nearby but the game value is crazy low anyone know the best place to try and trade it in

Looked up the trade values of Sin and the other .03 Wii games on Best Buy website. Very very low....ranging from 25 cents to just over a dollar.
