Best Buy Reward or Gamestop PowerUp?
Hey
I've had the Gamestop PowerUp in the past and on the normal Best Buy reward. However I've seen the new Gamer Reward Unlocked a lot lately and wanted to know if others use it, have Gamestop or both? It seems they do more in $$$$ Gift Certificates on new releases and trade-ins than Gamestop.

I use the Reward Zone Unlocked. Gets me $20 GC back on a bunch of pre-orders. I then sell the bonus DLC I get and a lot of times I can pricematch when the price drops at BB or other places in first few weeks.
Dead Space 3 was 65 with tax. Got a 20 GC with it. Got 21.30 price adjustment 11 days after. So I basically spent 45 and got the game plus a gift certificate. That beats Amazon and Gamestop in my book.
They are changing their pricematching policy so it won't be as lucrative as it once was, but I still think it's the best deal out there.

Both. Best Buy recently changed their price matching policy. You can't price match post purchase anyone's price but Best Buy.
