Thanks Biff

Let me know how it goes if you go to the one in Pinole, don't really feel like doing this if it doesn't work over there.

haha @ 58.99 or less

 

[DPancakes]

So when you're returning 2 games, you're returning a 59.99 and a 39.99 one right?

Yes if you look @ original rec. those should be the two with any value it doesn't have to be that way tho you can pay $130 but this

way is just cheaper and easier

Step 1 (Getting the free game of your choice)

1. Go to your local BB
2. Pick up three games for purchase (recommended 1 game for $59.99, 1 game for $59.99, and 1 game for $39.99)
3. take games to register or pick up the game you want at the register
4. ask to see two of the games (the one you want and the one that's cheapest)
5. allow the cashier to scan the first game while still holding the other two
6. then give cashier the game you intend to keep so that it is scanned second (second game scanned is the free one)
7. finally give the cashier the cheaper game $39.99 (should be about $108.xx in NYC)
8. ask for ONE gift receipt and complete your purchase (all 3 items print on the gift receipt regardless)

Step 2 (returning the two games and getting another free game)

1. go to ANOTHER local BB
2. take your two games and gift receipt to customer service and ask them if you can make a return (should be no problem
with the gift receipts and you will get back $108.xx in NYC)
3. return to step 1 and repeat over and over and over

Advice is to limit face time with customer service reps so they don't remember you and to bring a friend so that you

could keep a dialogue going so they just do their job and don't bother you with 20 questions


Worked for me every time...Easy as 1-2-3

Also always pay cash and keep receipts in order, so in case it doesn't work you can always just give back everything and bail and

don't argue with them if they say no, because you may want to try it at a later time at the same store, just walk out quietly



DO WORK MEN

!@#$ don't fly here in Southern Cali.

Either someone already !@#$ed up before me at all locations, or every single cashier is on-point with their job.

I went to 5 locations: 1 in OC over the weekend, 1 in Glendale, 1 in Burbank, 1 in Pasadena, 1 in Duarte.

We'll see if you got it good out in the 562 area. Good luck to you, homey.

Man, the dudes here are followin' rules to the -t.

The spots I bought from, cashiers start spittin' the guidelines and the rules of returns/exchanges and gift receipts to my face for my B2G1F purchase whilethey're ringin' me up.

I'm just standin' there like, Wow did I even ask you?

I'm gonna try one more time elsewhere. If I don't come up on anything, I'm tappin' out.

Just figure yourself to be blessed with locations of cashiers and customer service reps that don't know any better.

Keep doin' your thing.

 

[ezln1]

if the CS has any clue, they'll see what you're trying to do....that's why I just returned 1 game at a time today...takes more time and trips, butyou run less risk of being shot down.
Going to try 2 new stores in the morning, and hit up the same ones I hit today in the afternoon.

 

[socluis90]

they told me straight up they can't return without receipt because of the deal they have going on.

 

[biff lawson]

^thats why you get the gift receipt, my first time I tried to do it without receipt and she wasn't letting me but

when I got a gift receipt, that's when I started raping the system

thanks ... guess i ma fall back and just do 1 today and then return my extras at a walmart or something for store credit

 

[d money87]

the plot thickens... in my area i dont even worry about getting the right game becuase walmart exchanges one game for another no questions asked. i run thescheme at bestbuy then get the game i want from walmart so far i have come up on NHL10 and Need for Speed drift. can someone tell me how to post pics from mycpu yuku ftl

 

[kanyeiwest]

I would do this to cop the Renegade Edition of DJ Hero along with two free games.
But I live in the 626 of SoCal

 

[djaward]

BIFF..

So this is the same scam as TRU, only this time youre having them scan the game you want to keep 2nd instead of 3rd right???

HAS ANYONE TRIED GOING TO TOYS R US AND ASKING THEM TO PRICE MATCH BB DEAL????
