create an account. most online store participate and offer a certain percentage of your purchase back. The percentages change. You'll then get a check mailed to you a few times a year (or is it monthly?).

The online Marketplace charges you sales tax? Bummer. What state is that (if you don't mind me asking)?

If CAG is on the money, then next week, Best Buy is doing their usual B2G1F sale, although there are some caveats:

- Xbox One and PS4 only

- Excludes Fallout 4 and Star Wars: Battlefront

- Must be new, in-stock, and a regular edition (no CEs or anything)

How the fuck can they exclude games? That's just weird.

It charges tax for me and I am in Alabama.

I assumes this excludes any Lego Dimensions sets?

How the hell can they exclude systems? I don't have a PS4 or an Xbox One!

It was the same last year, FWIW. I know the 3DS, Vita, and Wii U were excluded, anyway.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
Based on how well Fallout 4 is doing and all the media hype around SW:Battlefront...I could see BB excluding them. I saw where Amazon had SW: Battlefront Steelbook listed in the Daily Deals for like $10 off for the last few days...and it's still there this morning. I did see something though with the Video Game Awards this week that there might be some sales with some of the games featured.

Pissed that I missed my chance for those PS4 Cyber Monday deals. PS4 sale on the online store said it'd expire today, not yesterday. Oh well, hopefully there will be another sale this month.

The PSN Black Friday Flash Sale? That was clearly stated that it would end Monday. The 10% off coupon was good until about an hour ago.

I should have known better than to trust the PS store on my system, but it did say to 12/1 (at least on my system). Kinda dumb to put that on the store, but whatever, my backlog of games is plenty, and by the time I get to them they'll be on sale again or cheaper to pick up, so I'm not too bummed.

I remember it saying until 11am PST 12/1. I purchased stuff from the flash sale this morning at about 4am this morning California time.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
sucks if BB doesn't include Battlefront as that's one game I would probably do the b2g1

not sure I'm going to bother if that ends up being the case.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread
The holidays are right around the corner and I’m sure many of you are planning on finishing up your holiday shopping soon. If PlayStation 4 is on your list, we’ve got some great news — the Star Wars Battlefront Standard Edition PS4 bundle and Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection PS4 bundle will each be available at $299.99 (MSRP) starting this Saturday, December 6th, through December 19th.

Sony seems to be taking a page out of Microsoft's book as far as "temporary price drops" go. I wonder if they'll actually go back to $350 afterwards.

Sounds like CAG was only partially on the money! Fallout 4 and Battlefront are not excluded from the sale. Hell, bestbuy.com specifically highlights both of those.

Damn, great deals. I want Battlefront but would prefer it on PC and already own the other two.
