Target has the Cobalt version for $80 and it comes with a copy of Spiderman 2. That's probably the best you can do at this point. They were $56 at Fry's on Black Friday.

The regular GBA or the SP? You might be able to get the regular GBA at Wal-Mart for about $40.00 or so if they have any left from Black Friday, mine still has about 100 left. But I think the SP is a standard price of $79.99 unless a store runs a special w/ a game included like Circuit City, or Target sometimes do.

This week, Target offers :
$88
GBA SP (Free Series of Unforunate Events game plus 2 child movie tickets)
That's not a bad deal.
And it's on sale at Fry's for $69.99 this weekend.

Strawberries in the Boston area is offering the SP for $59.99 with the purchase of two GBA titles. I'm not sure if this entailed any Mail in rebates or not. Also, I think Strawberries is a part of TWEC, the same company as FYE.
A month or so ago, I was able to pick up the SP for $59.99 on a $20 mail in rebate from Strawberries, no additional purchases required. You may want to research some of the TWEC stores to see if there is something similar.

If you don't mind used, and you can find a Blockbuster Game Rush near you, they have a "make your own used" bundle where you get the system and two 19.99 or less games for 59.99 (although they may try to say it is only for Advance, instead of Advance SP.)
