This promo is happening again, at least in the Delaware Valley area. I am not sure if it is Nationwide or not.

I drive past two of them on the way home and there's a third near my house...

I've got three at one intersection, and another right next to my house.

Why would there be three gamestops at one intersection?

Yes, three gamestops at one intersection? Where is this holy land you speak of?

He probably means something like a mall with an eb and software etc and a gamestop across the street or something... I don't even count them unless they're standalone stores.

I just took advantage of that sale. Picked up some NES games. they actually had a decent selection. First time in about 3 months.

I don't have one within 30 miles of me. So, I propose this. Pack up one of the six you guys have near you, and send them to concord, NH.

why not Portsmouth, NH? Then you could buy from me!

I got the email today at work and had to scramble to find signage we don't have for it, but the sale is back on, spread the word!

Yes, and please ship one to Athens, Ohio. Why does the closest thing have to be an EBames (Well, 2, but they're of equal distance in both directions)?

God damnit! I just spent $17 there last night on 3 shitty NES games I needed! Would have saved at least $5 if I waited 1 more day to buy them.

YES! Nice, thanks for the heads up. Im headed to the one near me in about a half an hour. Hope they have some boxed NES games.

I am going to TRY to find some time to stop at the local 2 near me. I have school ALL WEEKEND. (See off-topic forum) I will make it a point to get there tomorrow evening hopefully.

I was all set to use my employee discount at two different Gamestops today, but since the sale was going on it saved me more money. I got a whole bunch of genesis games and a few were complete too. :D

Wow, BOTH of you live in NH? I grew up in Amherst and went to college at Plymouth State. During the weekends our favorite things to do were to go to Funspot in nearby Weirs Beach or drive 35 minutes down to Concord to go to the mall or something else in the city. :D

Mine didn't have #$@%

I have an EB close by and they have a lot more. Why don't they have the same sale ? Aren't they the same company?

They weren't offering this deal in the Connecticut Gamestops that I visited today.

I guess its a regional thing.

what systems does this cover?

anything used, period. The only thing is the free item can't be a used system. If you buy a used system, it counts as one of the 'two' you buy, and then a third item is free.

The EB World that I went to today had this sale on used games:

Buy 2 - get 10% off

Buy 3 - get 15% off

Buy 5 - get 20% off

Plus you get another 10% off with that subscription card...

I was able to get a very good deal of some older PSX games, a few longbox games, and the first-run budget titles.

He probably means something like a mall with an eb and software etc and a gamestop across the street or something... I don't even count them unless they're standalone stores.

I'll get pictures up sometime.

I can stand at one gamestop, look across the street, see another gamestop. Look across the other street, see another gamestop, look kitty corner, see the mall with EB and TRU.

"No we don't have that, let me see if the store across the street does..."

"Which one?"

Literally, 3 at one intersection in three different strip malls. Guess how many starbucks are at that intersection.

Ah, Milford, huh? I still have a good friend from HS who lives there -- last saw him a few months ago. Our old rival town. :D

I went to high school at the combined high school in 90-92 and then went Amherst opened Souheagen I finished up there 92-94. I was in college at Plymouth State from 94-98.

Small world indeed, but we seem to have a lot of gamers here from New England, much less New Hampshire. LOL

Just a quick PSA:

The sale ends on Saturday at the close of business. Get crackin' if you're meaning to take advantage of the sale!

I'd invest in some NES carts if my local store would decide if they're gonna carry them or not! Last week they had about 2 dozen, now none again?! :angry:

Be warned. Make multiple trips if you buy something cheap. I ended up wanting something that was 49 cents, and that's what they gave me as the freebee :( I had like 5 items, all over $5 :angry:
