TRU B&M: 70% off some games
Perhaps it has been posted already but i didn't see it. Toys R Us has some games (at least in my location) marked with a green price tag for 70% off. They had some Xbox, PS2, and GC games but the selection was pretty picked through. I did score a copy of Deathrow for 6$ so you might want to give your local store a look see. There were a few sports titles and i specifically remember Black and Bruised as well as Eternal Darkness for the GC.

I picked up the following at TRU 70% off:
PS2 Optical Cable $2.99
R:Racing Evolution PS2: $4.48
I got a bunch when they were 50% off + $5 more off for all games under $19.99

My TRU was sparce back when it was 50% off. I doubt things have changed. Thanks for the heads up though. I might check it out if I am near by. I wouldn't mind scoring Deathrow from all the positive talk I have read about it on the forum.

I stopped in today. Louisville. Still had the 50% green tag signs and prices going. They only had about 50 games. Not titles. Games. Probably 7 different titles left between 3 systems.
Anyone wanna snag Deathrow for me cheap? I have great ebay feedback and can paypal. Email me.

Combined with some ridiculously low clearance prices, many people were loading up on games costing $5 all the way down to free. (I myself picked up 6 for $8+ total... a couple were PS2 Beyond Good & Evil ending up at $1.68; XIII was 48 cents.)

They apparently add more stuff to the green tag deal all the time, as I scored 3 official first-party Xbox S controllers for $9 each and got one third-party Interact one for around $4. I also saw the Xbox LCD screens for $48 or so and the PSOne LCD screens for $30. Pretty good deals if you can get them, I still can't believe I got three new first party Xbox controllers at this price...

Went by to check it out anyways. Got Baulder's Gate on GC for 9 something, and picked up Eternal Darkness for like 5 bucks.
Pretty good prices although neither were marked that low, just took them up thinking they were like 15-20 each. So a nice suprise when they rang up.
