oblivion was given $0. i asked the cashier if he can scan marvel last. he asked why, and i said i was trying to get marvel to ring up as free. so he did, but this time, socom came up as $0.

so i just thought forget it and left.
You told him you were trying to ring up the $60 game as free and he still tried? What an idiot.

I was just thinking of something. Since i paid with Debit, If BB sees that I took advantage of the glitch, can they re-charge my card to make the cheapest game free?

How would they know that you were aware of their glitch? All that you did was take 3 games up to the register and paid for them. No need to be paranoid over it.

Apparently this has happened with past buy 2 get one free sales:

This led to many across the internet to buy two cheap games and get the third more expensive game scanned free. The glitch lasted the entire week of the sale and was never corrected.

Best Buy has some horrible POS programming, that aside do you think they will give us trouble if we try exchanging games later on for new upcoming releases?

Lol, a guy who works at Best Buy took advantage of the sale netting 20 RR's and 10 60 dollar games, AND GOT FIRED. He posted over to CAG and says he is going to sue ROFL

Not sure if we are allowed to post the site here but it is in the Deal/Shopping Discussions & Bragging Rights forum. You will see it, he is getting flamed to all hell

what a dumbass. Did he actually use his rewards zone card? No way he'll ever win a lawsuit. I wonder what would've happened if he didn't return the games. Would BB arrest him for theft?
