Gamecube owners: Wavebird + Metroid Prime $15.99 K-Mart B&M

A skinny billfold thread on this deal sent me scurrying to my local Big K (they're running a 60%-off clearance sale in-store 1/15-16/05), and sure enough, these shrink-wrapped combos, still sitting in the video game case, not taken out for the sale, and still marked at previous prices (I think the current price had been $39.99, which one was stickered with -- the other one of the 2 I bought was still marked $74.99 (!) ), rang up for $15.99. Definitely worth a trip to the Land of Blue Lights if you own or are thinking about owning a Gamecube, as the controller usually goes for approx. $30 by itself. Now I've got to figure out what to do with 2 extra copies of Metroid Prime!

FYI for anyone here in Richmond, VA, the Midlothian store near Chippenham still had 3 left tonight after I bought mine....

I saw this on the other site and picked up a couple. Sucks just last week I bought a used one at Blockbuster since I had a gift card for it there.
I was also able to get Veiwtuful Joe for the PS2 for 7.99

My K-Mart was out. I know they had a couple of these at least last week, so these went fast. My store also had all the clearance stuff pulled and on a cart, so I am not surprised nothing good was left.

I checked both local Big K's but didn't see any of the wavebird/metroid bundles. Would someone want to pick one up for me? I did pick up Bomberman Jetters for the GC $7.99. One of the stores had quite a bit, but the other was really sparse on games.

Well, I got off work at 9:30, found out they were open until 10, so I swung by and got the last Metroid Prime bundle. I made it to another KMart but they wouldnt let me in since it was 5 minutes to closing.....if the deal is still on tomorrow I could actually swing by on my way to work in the morning.

did it ring up as the sale price or did they have to do an adjustment after the fact. I went yesterday and I think I missed out as they came up as 39.99.
