XBOX games 45% off at Target w/ Raincheck (YMMV)

I'm a newbie, so forgive me if this has already been posted.

GTA 3/Vice City Double Pack for Xbox is in Target's ad for 27.88. Reg. price is 49.99. If the game is sold out, which it very well maybe, get a raincheck. The raincheck specifies you can use it for an equal discount on like items. Hence, about 45% the game of your choice.

Saw this on another forum. Didn't know if there was a video game bargain forum, so maybe this doesn't belong here.

Thanks for the info, but that practice is discouraged by the mods here (they feel it's a fraudulent practice), so they're likely to close this thread.

It's on sale this week?

Or is it going to be on sale the next week?

The original post stated Xbox version, which is $49.99. The discount on the rain check is 45%.

Can a raincheck for an Xbox game be used for a GC or PS2 game? What if the game the raincheck is for comes back in stock - is a substitution still allowed?

Closing thread. Thanks for posting about the bargain about the GTA two-pack, but the direction in which you took the thread is basically a discussion on how to take advantage of Target's policies. If Target really wanted to offer 45% off all of their XBox games, they'd just do that.
