I just ordered the same three games. Thanks for the heads up. Interesting how all three ship at different times. It will kill me to have to wait for Vice City, but if you think about it, it is free.

Is anyone getting charged for shipping? Is the free shipping over $25 over?

The free shipping offer doesn't apply to Video Games. But some PS2 games do have free shipping.

Weird, they must have shut it down. But if it's 27 - 2, that means it will be valid, right?

I placed the same order as a couple of you have above (LOTR: TTT, Suikoden 3, Vice City). Still working as of 8:55. Not bad for $106.

OK I think I figured it out. The coupon only works if all three items are $49.99. Add a $39.99 item and it won't work.
Now I've got to think of another game I really want....

I really didn't want any of the PS2 exclusives besides Vice City, which I already have preordered at EBgames with overnight shipping.

So I bought 3 copies of Vice City to sell on Ebay.

I should be able to get my EBgames copy of Vice City for free.

Is this only online or will it work in stores next week? I don't want to have to wait an extra couple of days to play Vice City due to shipping.

I can't get the code to work. I picked Lord of the Rings: Two Towers, Tomb Raider, and Star Wars: Bounty Hunter.

It says "We are unable to apply this gift certificate to your order because it does not fulfill the requirements of this promotional offer. Please refer to your gift certificate for further details."

????

All 3 of those games are $49.99. Do you have to go to toysrus.com or amazon.com?

Someone help.

Tomb Raider was delayed until next year, so maybe it's too far off to work in the deal.


And yes, this will word IN STORE at TRU from 10/27-11/2

I never understod this. Aren't they the same store? If you go to toysrus.com doesn't it just take you to the toys and games section of Amazon.com? As for which one to use, I used Amazon and it worked just fine. Are all of the games you chose for the PS2? I know that Bounty Hunter is also available for the GameCube.

I think it may have to do more with the fact that TR doesn't come out until Feb 2003.

Yeah I agree with that now that I went to Amazon and saw that they took away the release date for Tomb Raider. I could have sworn they had a release date of late November last night. Also I love how they loeft the free shipping still attached to it.

On a seperate note, does anyone know why they don't include Video Games in the free shipping offer?

This is what I am thinking after seeing some of these posts.

Well, it was the PS2 deal of the year, anyway !

Since I'll be able to get GTA Vice City for $35 at Best Buy anyway and I've barely cracked Sly Cooper and Kingdom Hearts, I think I might actually pass on this deal (I can't believe I just wrote that!)
