*Dead*Sims2 DVD special edition $39.99+$10 gift card at CC

[Corpun]

Just saw this in the sunday ad, didnt find anything here but an old sims2 pre-order thread so I dont think this is a repost.

hmm, might be a typo in the local (bay area) ad, the online version does indeed say 49.99+GC but the actual paper ad says 39.99. Check your local paper ad.

You'll have to check and make sure the ad is good in your area as they do vary.

I see $49.99 + $10 GC

I would go check in person to see if i could get it for $39.99+GC but since I lost interest in the original sims game after only a week (micro-managing the lil buggers drove me nuts after a while and the AI really sucked in some areas) I dont think I'm going to buy the sequel.

There is an advertisment correction by the door.

 

[Corpun]

Ahh, bummer. Well, in the end I actually decided to go ahead and give the game a shot after reading a few reviews. There was no correction at the CC in Emeryville, CA when I went by about 11:30am, I got them to honor the deal. Sounds like they're already pulling it everywhere through. I hope at least a few others got in on it.

I was pretty upset with CC. I went there on Friday with my $10 off coupon from PC Gamer to buy the Sims 2 for my son. They hadn't even taken the time to put it out on the shelf yet, and wouldn't get it for me from the back.

I hope they missed out on all the first-day sales they would have had otherwise.

 

[pxc]

I got it and they let me use the PC Gamer coupon, too.

The receipt rang up as: $39.99 game + tax + $10.00 gift card - $10.00 promo = $39.99 + tax, and I got a $10 gift card that I just used for the $24.99AR DVD player. YMMV.

It's also YMMV with the coupon - the coupon SPECIFICALLY says "not valid with any other offers."

So if they wanted to be dicks, they could give you the choice of the coupon or the giftcard - not both.

Best Buy B&M price matched this deal. Got the game for $39 plus a $10 gift card.

why would following their policy make them dicks?
