I didn't get my normal online info, did anyone get something from GS worth using this week?

40 percent additional trade in credit towards madden 09.

even with the 40% their trade in prices are a joke.
and whats with how they sell used games for like $5 less than a new one. If they are new realeases they do that. Why not just spend 5 more? lol.
Autobots. Roll out.
Look at it this way...if you have the discount card (which most do) you get another 10% off said $50-55 used game...which will save you another $5. Not to mention there is a "did not like" 7-day return policy on used games at GS, there is not a policy like that when buying NEW.
I'd rather buy a $50 used copy of a game that I can return if it sucks (which most new releases as of late do suck) rather than pay $60 for a new copy that I'm stuck with if I buy it and it sucks.
I will agree most trade-in prices that GS gives out are crap and sometimes beyond ridiculous. But if you use all the promos to your advantage and keep up on what GS gives for certain games you can make most if not all of your money back.
real-life example:
I had bought Wii Fit when it first came out for $89.99...after a few weeks I decided it wasn't for me. Ended up taking the following into GS and got the following for them:
- Wii Fit = $60
- Mario Kart (DS) = $20
- Dynasty Warriors 6 (PS3) = $20
+ 10% with discount card
+ $10 for every 2 Wii/PS3/360 games you trade in
For 3 mediocre games I got $120 store credit and easily made my money back on the $90 Wii Fit I bought.

I have really had more good experiences than bad with GS I have been through mgr,dm. No matter what they do I will always remember there buy 2 used get 1 free. No store ever offerd that completely including accessories.
The past few years I have been mad at ea.
On madden 09 for the first time in years I am excited. I played the demo and the angle they got going to teach people how to play seems much deeper and better. I can see the progress this year but that is just me. Learning to read a defense etc. it has been a long time coming. The 40 percent will save if one buys the collectors edition.
