It's tied to your account so as long as you are logged it, it will take off the 20% when you add the game to your cart.

There is a full list of the breakdown of all the deals at Walmart here....

I couldn't believe they have Dying Light, Far Cry 4, Dishonored Collection and even Gears of War Ultimate Edition at $15.00

I'm hoping to see some digital deals... more specifically Rare Replay and Dead Rising 3.

Here's something a tad different, yet "Video Game Deal" related. Want a classy Zelda-themed ocarina? Amazon's running a lightning deal on 'em right now for $12.49. Go to the "Today's Deals" page to spot it. Around half of them are claimed at this point, with a few hours left.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

Really disappointed with the PS4 bundles offered on BF this year, don't know why they are pushing the Uncharted series so badly. New game doesn't come out until March.

Anyway I decided to settle for the PS4 bundle from Target. With the 5% Red Card discount as well as the 15% Pinwheel discount, the bundle (just a Nathan Drake bundle) comes to about $250 after tax.

That doesn't compute, 20% off 350 is 270 + tax. What's Pinwheel?

Cartwheel, and I believe it's a 10% discount on a wishlist item. Didn't think it was valid on consoles though, as most coupons exclude them.

Michael, there's a specific PS4 Cartwheel deal with the Drake collection, which is 15% off. I did that, came to $317 after taxes. Not bad.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

The Cartwheel deal brings it to about 297.50. Even with Redcard, that's 282.53 before taxes, and in most states, taxes will bring it back up to at least 300. Not sure how Osiris figures 250 after taxes, unless he's using some other discount that he didn't mention.

EDIT: Only thing I can think is that he's figuring from a starting price of 299.99, but the starting price is 349.99

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

Oh. Yes, I did $299 x 20% (15% Cartwheel, 5% Red Card) and subtracted that amount from $299. Thought the deal was $299 right now and the cartwheel discount applies on top of that.

Splitting hairs, but 5% and 15% don't add up to 20%. When you stack percentages, the net is 19.25%.

To keep $299 under $250 after 19.25% and taxes, the tax rate would have to be less than 3.5%.

Re: The Video Game Deals Thread

20% of $300 is $60, which subtracted from $300 is $240, and I made a random guess that after taxes the total would be somewhere over $250. Didn't stop to do the actual math on the taxes.

Maybe it'll be around that price when I sell the Drake Collection digital code...(kidding, don't expect that much for it).

Can't believe there isn't going to be a MSG Phantom Pain bundle, that's what I was hoping for.

I also really wanted a sweet PS4 deal but I couldn't care less about the Uncharted collection. I'm ready for that Dragon Quest Heroes game.

Actually, that's 12 months of EA Access. Still a nice deal, but not quite the same punch .

Uncharted ended up being a physical copy, one of those "not for resale" boxes.

I would have actually done that deal, but when I click on the buy link, it takes me to a blank page, and I can't find it on newegg's site. Dead deal?

Yeah, I want a PS4 for UC4, and I'd like to have the UC collection, but it doesn't seem like a good choice for a bundle unless you've never played the original trilogy. I'd rather get a brand-new game with a bundle, then pick up the collection when the price drops.

Maybe there'll be a better bundle for UC4 even though it isn't BF, though I did lock in the nice Amazon pre-order price for the stand-along game. Fortunately I'm not in a hurry because I already have a current-gen console.

Worked for me (even though I didn't buy it...I'm expecting $20 around BF on Ebay somewhere)...goes to slick deals, then select Buy Now button and then it goes to Newegg for Purchase (and typing of code).

Try a different browser, sometimes those gateway middle men pages are clunked up through some browsers, or a mobile device.
