I guess if I can't find it I'll have to go through the process of asking CS. This will be a chore.
I got mine on 11/7 as well.

Apparently they're also sending some out through snail mail.

Thanks. I never got that message. I PMed someone named Kelly at the Best Buy forum who should apparently be able to help me. I really wanted to do this, so I hope it works out

Same as others have stated already, mine also came on the 7th. Mine was set to expire on November 14th, but luckily I got the current member extension until 2/10/2014, and I'll renew with the coupon before the end of December.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

after look at the threads on CAG for next week's ad, the best deal for Xbox One games is going to be the buy 3 get $50 TRU gift card. nothing even remotely comes close. BB will have buy 3 get $25 in RZ credit. sucks that PS4 got such good deals, but Xbox One gets nothing similar.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

PS4 Deal not carried over - Buy 2 Get 1 Free = $120
TRU - Buy 3 Get $50 GC -= $130
BB Reward Zone deal - Buy 3 Get $25 RZ = $155
BB Reward Zone deal for Unlocked Members - Buy 3 - 20% Get $25 RZ = $ 119

Add in $10 Pre-order RZ bonus on certain games and you save even more at BB.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

I am not impressed at all with the prices or selection of games for Black Friday this year. All the major retailers (Walmart, Best Buy, Target) are underwhelming. I hope Amazon or Microsoft.com have some good deals that we don't know about yet.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

No I didn't, which is why I included the one with not being Unlocked...

I did forget to include you also get points on the $ amount paid which varies with membership level, credit card...

BB is cheaper if you are an unlocked member and everything works the way it is supposed to...

Otherwise the PS4 Deal, followed by the TRU deal are cheap and easy.

I didn't get it either. I have the Elite Plus status and called the 24/7 helpline. The preferences on my account were to opt out of emails (even though I never did this). She reset it and sent me a test email which I received.

Then went to the forums and PMd one of the mods about not getting it. 5 days later got a response that he checked my account and it was set to no emails. He said it was reset and he would resend the coupon. Got it two days later.

my point being, if you want Xbox One games AND you don't have gamer's club unlocked, the TRU deal is the best.

Has amazon ever had a killer bf sale that wasn't just a match of a retail BF ad?

That Microsoft.com one last year was killer and unexpected, though. Made me not want to buy any Microsoft games before BF.

Don't forget all the great $10 deals as well.

some of the titles:
Skyrim, Saints Row: The Third, CoD: Modern Warfare 3, Asura's Wrath, Dragon's Dogma, Gears of War 3, Fallout New Vegas Ultimate, Tiger Woods 13 Collector's Edition, Lego Batman 2, Fitness Evolved 2012, Kinect Nat Geo

If they have a sale like this again I may not have to get the new system for 2 years, if I can hold out that long of course or they get to my price point

Yeah I rarely buy games for the 360, so I haven't played many of the best titles. I can definitely hold out on the new gen for several years.

Also all those free games previously on the 360 Live? I have never played any of them dang! (Missed Halo 3 and Fable II)

Also, Amazon has leappad games for 9.99 (They normally run 24.99), according to many, this is rock bottom prices and they don't usually go below 10$. So I stocked on a couple.

That looks sketchy. Best Buy has PS Plus for $40 all the time. I'd wait for them instead.

Gamedailsdealy is legit. I've used them in the past to buy DLC codes.

Use your free trial, and then pick up a card for $30 during Black Friday at Gamestop.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

I think there is a clause to though on how much you get depending on your make/model of the game system.
