Jeez, I wish I had that kind of luck. As it is, I only seem to find a good score when I'm in Ohio. The only one here in Saginaw is awful, as their selection is literally the exact same every time I go in there.

We've discussed this and it's all about location. I live in an area that has been on the downward slide for over a decade. It's a very uncultured, uneducated area. Thus, it's not all that surprising to walk into our GS and see what sort of titles are available. Now, you go to an area with some more culture and money, and you'll probably make out nicely.

The sale has been on since the day after Christmas, officially. I've wiped out all the local stores as of late, and my last trip was on Tuesday.
Rambo Trilogy 4 Disc Set (Metal Sleeved/OOP) - $14
The Muppet Show: Season 1 - $18
Chasing Amy CC - FREE
...ended up selling "Chasing Amy" for $10, so got both of those sets essentially for $22.
I ended up buying like...6 copies of "Fear and Loathing" from them, just because I ahd already bought so much, and I needed another title for the B2G1F sale. So, I made out with a bunch of OOP Bond titles, Free Seinfeld Season 3, Free Exorcism of Emily Rose, Transformers Season sets for $27, etc.
Gotta love it.

Amen to that brother! The selection here in Saginaw sucks. I get so jealous when i read others posts and see what some are able to find. Oh well, guess I should move.

Can anyone confirm this deal is still going on nationwide? I went by my local EB but the guy there said he didn't think the deal was still running, so I walked out. Or he is a moron?

Went to two EB games (who are definitely running the sale, clerk told me about it without prompting) and two Gamestops today. Nothing good. I have some trade in credit that I would like to use too.

Went to Sun Valley (Concord, CA) Gamestop today, and they claimed the sale was no longer going. Too bad, since they had a bunch of stuff I would have picked up.
