2. b. Remember to tell them that I would like gift receipts for the items.

3. Go to a different BB with the gift receipts and return the 2 games that were paid for.
Basically act like I got them as a gift and wanted to just get store credit so I can buy the games I want which aren't released yet.

4. Then repeat the process with the gift card.

Does this seem correct biff?

Since all Walmarts turned me down I basically have to keep the free games or sell them via CL or ebay?

Teah the 2nd game is the free one tho


and they do give gift cards

The only reason your second game is free is because they give you the least expensive game for free and BB was selling Borderlands for like 53.99 or something.At least it showed that on BB online yesterday and just checked and I guess they changed it back to 59.99.

[oo the roc oo]

I just got back from BB, and I copped Madden, NBA 2k10, and Uncharted 2. I think I'll be happy with this pick up, it only cost me $100 with myRewardzone...

 

[jae oh en]

picked up renegade DJ hero, tekken 6 and got forza for free

.

i went halves on DJ hero with a friend, so all in all- spent 167 for those 3 games.

So no matter the price of the *2nd* game it's free?..I could Do:
$20
$60
$60

And get 3 games for $80?

This just threw me off..

 

[ezln1]

There is definitely a pricing error in BB's system....I talked to an employee today and he mentioned it....he noticed the mistake when he rang a lady upthe previous day and one of the games she ended up paying was the cheapest of all the 3 games she got

This was too easy....I returned 2 games from the TRU sale, at 2 different BB's, and they didnt even sweat me when I asked for a gift card....didnt even askfor ID, and I just gave them fake names/addresses....copped 3 games....gonna try tomorrow at different times

 

[d money87]

im lovin this right now. BB in my area didnt even ask for ID or my name just took the two games and handed me gift card for $127 im gunna go tomrrow andrepeat. I bought in the AM and returned in the PM to same store different clerks.

i was surprised 2 so i tried it again ... 2 games for 108

and tekken 6 was the free game and then the next time i got modern warfare .... but yeh i guessi should have done the 20$ games

 

[jrp44]

Damn nice...might have to go up to BestBuy now and make sure a $60 game is in the middle

 

[d money87]

ive done it twice now middle game rang up free the first time. but the second time i copped three need for speeds and the first rang up free.
