Lots of Deals at EB

I just got back and they have a lot of promotions going on

1)For every used game you trade in you get a few dollars more on top of what they will normally give you. The more games you trade in the more extra dollars they give you per game
2)Buy 1 of i believe it was 5 GBA games and get a GBA for $49
3)Trade in your used PS2 and 3 games and get a xbox bundle
4)Buy 2 GC games get 10% off, buy 3 get 20 %, buy 4 get 30%
5)There was also a trade in of sorts to get a GC for $50 when you trade in a old system with 10 games


I think there were actually some others but i just saw those

What 5 GBA games could you choose from? Don't suppose Castlevania was included?

I just got back from EB and wanted to clarify a few things. These deals are not exactly what were posted unless my EB had different deals for some reason.

Using the same order from above:
1)Didn't see anything about this
2)When you purchase any "featured" GBA game you can get a GBA for $69.99 and you can mail away for a $20 EB gift voucher. So your final total will be $49.99. It doesn't list the games, but it shows pictures of Yoshi's Island, Super Mario Advance, Metroid Fusion and Golden Sun, and it says "additional games available."
3)Yep
4)Buy 1 GC game and save $5, buy 2 and save $15, and buy 3 and save $30. These are all mail in rebates for EB gift vouchers! Not cash or immediate savings.
5)Yep
6)Upgrade your GameBoy Color to Game Boy Advance for $49.99.
7)Pre-purchase Metroid Prime for only $29.99 when you purchase a GC system.

Still some great deals! Thanks for posting CaptDS9E! Made me check it out and buy some games!

Edited to add pics:
 


Edited to add:

All of the deals (at least those ones listed on the sheet) end on 11/30/02 except for the Metroid Prime deal which ends on 11/24/02. If you are sending in for gift vouchers, they must be postmarked by 12/15/02. Allow 4-6 weeks for delivery.

Thanks for clarifying it all up. Since most of the things i just glanced at quickly. They are all still great deals. Glad i could give you a heads up. This is the most deals ive seen them do at one time


The first thing i know they did because I actually read the slip for it on the counter and there was also a Electronic Botique ad in our paper today which mentioned the Trade in used games deal.

Looks like I'll just try to pick up the $50 GBA from Walmart on Black Friday along with Castlevania: HOD. I'll pick up Fusion eventually but with Prime coming out Tuesday, I don't want to Metroid myself silly. Must spread these joys out you know... it may be awhile before we get some Metroid again!

If there is a deal, YMMV. I asked my local EB on Friday and they said all their deals like this were expired.
