TOYS R US SALE heads up

[lendelin]

Thanks to cheapassgamer here is a cut-and-paste-list of a nice ToysRUs sale. The prices are accurate, it works, and the sales prices are in the cash register no matter what the price labels say.

Note in particular those $10-deals for great precious PS2 RPGs, and Odama for the GC with mic for ten dollars as well.

This sale is unfortunately NOT online, and started today (December 26th). Happy hunting!

Thanks for the heads-up, I scribbled down about 10 titles I'm sorta interested in. My hopes of finding them aren't very high, but I'll still stop by and check it out!

[-hellvin-]

Ahhh Toys R Us. Why must you always torture me with these lists when I have no money? I actually should be able to pick up about 5 or 6 of these which I'm really interested in. May go check tomorrow if I get the time.

[exit]

.hack//GU FTW!...if I actually had the time and money for it.

[dbiersdorf]

YAY I got great games!

- Chibi-Robo (GCN) $10
- Gradius Collection (PSP) $10
- Psychonauts (Xbox) $5

[Lozza]

How long is this sale going? will I be ok for Fri-Mon?

[Gamereviewgod]

These are permanent markdowns.

[segagamer4life]

crap... I gotta check my local tru for these.. DAMN you end of year markdowns!!!!!

[kainemaxwell]

.Hack//GU is already that cheap!

[heybtbm]

Don't expect to find most of these titles.

Most TRU's only had a handfull of these games...hence the clearance markdowns. It still pays to take a look, but I only found 5-6 of those games at my local TRU yesterday. Your best bet is to hit those out of the way TRU's that still seem stuck in the 80's (The stores that still have "tickets" for video games that you take up to the cashier...not many of those around anymore).

[maxlords]

This in Canada too? Or US only? *sniff*

EDIT: The games have been discontinued but not discounted at Canadian TRUs *sigh*

[Cryomancer]

Went at 8am, they weren't open yet. Even though they normally open at 7am and it's no longer xmas. Oh well, going back in about a half hour, hopefully will get to edit this post with a couple grabs.

OK, for once mine sucked at this.

Got, willing to trade, Gunstar, Polarium, Odama

WANT WANT WANT a Zelda Minish Cap and Rub Rabbits, will trade those games, cash, or even make you some videogame fusebeads, but I could REALLY use these. Chibi Robo could be good too maybe.

[esquire]

I saw this over at CAG. I scored:

Drill Dozer
Wario Ware Twisted!
Point Blank DS
Deep Labyrinth
Samurai Warriors State of War
Capcom Classics Collection Remixed
Gradius Collection
Y's Ark of Napishtim
Winback 2 Project Poseidon
.hack//G.U. Vol. 1: Rebirth
Odama
Final Fantasy XI Online (XBOX 360)

Didn't bother looking for Grandia III, Atelier Iris 2, Steambot Chronicles and Metal Saga as I already had them.

Looking for:
Tales of Phantasia
Resident Evil DS
Rub Rabbits

I hope the ones I want to buy are still there on friday.

If only guitar hero was $20 with the guitar..... "Keep dreaming, boy!"

[cyberfluxor]

Guitar Hero... Just spent $50 in gift cards for Guitar Hero II alone (since the mall the gift card went to was out of combo guitar+game) and dropped another $40 on a wired guitar at Game Stop because they were out of compatible wireless ones. $90 is a ton of money to me for a game + guitar but I've already put a request out at a few places to hold GH1 and a second guitar when they come in. One place sold the other day GH 1 & 2 + Guitar for $60, now that's a deal.

But anyhow, at Toys R Us I picked up the Odama game because the other things I wanted weren't there. The locations around here seem to lack good game supplies.

[lordnikon]

Everytime these TRU sales take place, I run out to a few TRU's and all of their games are at a full 49.99 price point. I don't understand. These sales must be only for certain stores. I have never been able to take advantage of these sales.

I have given up on them entirely and cease to leap out of my chair when i see these posts.

Though I sure wish I had access to the TRU's you guys do. As I would kill for some of the games that are on-sale above.

They are on sale. The employees at your location apparently don't get price changes done. Make sure to scan anything you want at a price checker or make the employees do it at the register. TRU price changes are universale across all locations except Times Square.

Were there a lot of copies of Grandia III? I was thinking of picking that up for $50...9.99 is insane! I just don't want to show up and have it not be there.
