<< also, if you're lucky, you can get more than 2 per trip, some dude said he got 10 games for $14 over at slimwallet. now that's a hot deal. i could only manage 6 myself for $10. of course, it all depends on the games you get, but most of you probably got the picture by now. and most BB's are cleaned out, but they said they'll be stocking up again before the week's out...so if you missed out... >>
I got the 10 for $14. That was one f---ed up receipt. On the 34 titles I've bought since then, I've been averaging about $2.50 per title. My strategy is pairing $15 titles with $5 titles. Yea, I have a few dupes with those $5 ones, so I'll have to fleabay or resell to get them out of my inventory. There are a lot of decent $15 titles out there!
People, if this deal does not work for you, go to a different store. Do not call corporate, do not print out this thread and take it to the store and whine about someone else's experience. You'll just end up killing this deal.
Although they've managed to make this offer confusing enough for store and customer alike, if you take two titles (Sydney 2000 is an exception)up to the register, the two titles will ring up at $5 off each and when they update the total, you'll see another $5 come off. This is how they intended this to work.
Some of us have managed to get another $10 per pair because the store personnel are confused, or they're not, and their honoring another $10 off to make up for Best Buy's piss-poor execution of this promotion.
Like the saying goes, "your mileage may vary". I've got shot down at 1 out of 5 stores. Another one had an epiphany after working things out for me (20 x $2-$2.49 game purchase!), and may have killed it already too.
Good luck...
