Where'd you get SF for $10?
Amazon sale, I'm guessing?
To correct my earlier statement, if all goes according to plan *now*, I should have my 5 games for $76. Tomorrow will be fun. Have to drive to Newmarket from Markham (~30 minutes) to pick up two games, then head down to Aurora (~10 minutes) to pick up two more, and get the 5th from back in Markham (~10 minutes).

I might get MF3 for $15 if the printout of the Click Magazine coupon works there as well, the location I was at today didn't have the magazine but they accepted a printout.
I don't want to give up Kirby or MK7.

That's what the guy told me, but he made it an exception, he also says you can only use one a month, how would they know if I used another at a different location? I didn't sign anything.

You can try, at least for one, no harm in doing so.

I'm only giving up MK7 cuz i bought it during BB sale + $10 nintendozone coupon, it's still sealed and I'm not gonna play it anytime soon. If I can't find 3 more games I might not do a trade for XL though, waste of effort.
What's MF3?

Are you sure MaxPayne is still for 20$ at Walmart ?
Caue their website says 30$ in store and 20$ online but it's OOS.
I may give them a visit tomorrow and see.
Thanks for Champion Jockey hint guys. I got it for 5$ used at EB : )
I was at 711 today and just stumbled by a copy of TinTin for 360 used for 15$ : )
Then on my way home stopped by FS and got AC:R for 15$ with Click coupon.
Really appreciate your help guys and seriously you should check 711 for any hidden gems.

I'd say it's worth checking. It was still $20 at my store like 5 hours ago.

Yeah I think so. I thought may be it was the same but still scanned with you at 20$ in store.
Thanks.
Thanks.

You can't trade two copies of the same game even if they are for different consoles. You better use one of these Jockey copies for NSMB2 at a later time i.e at a different transaction not while you're trading for the 3DS XL.
Has it been mentioned that Best Buy is selling the Vita with Uncharted: Golden Abyss for $249.99?
Ends next Thursday.
Ends next Thursday.
$29.99? I guess I could use another Vita at that price
Fixed, lol.
$40 for 12-months at Future Shop with the Click Magazine coupon that's free in-store.

Am I an asshole for hoping they sell out of systems before most of you guys are able to trade your games for one. :lol
BTW Future Shop is doing another online-only sale tonight. Saturday 6pm EDT to Sunday 10am EDT.
20% off all trade-in games (I guess it means used games)
15% off all accessories (doesn't say select like usual)
http://www.futureshop.ca/en-ca/online-sale.aspx?fullsite=true&CMP=EMC-ALL-120818
EDIT:
Picture shows 20% off accessories but it's listed as 15% off down below.

Best Buy at Dundas / Winston Churchill tends to do a lot of midnight launches. Call and check.
Where did you get Tintin for $20?
By this I mean Max Payne 3.
Got my haul, thanks again for all of the tips and help everyone =)
Max Payne 3 $20, Jockey $10, Capcom Digital $20, TinTin $20, Assassins Creed $15 - Total cost was about $95 =D

You live in Montreal? Because those price tags are only really found here in Montreal and likely other spots in QC.
Ottawa, close enough to Quebec that Staples probably shares the same stock. Anytime I order from Staples online the product comes from the Montreal warehouse.

Going to see if Uptown Walmart still has some Max Paynes. I was going to buy it to play but now I'm not sure if I want to toss it towards an XL and NSMB2 along with Uncharted 3 and a few other games I already own.
I find it amusing that so many games on the list are dirt cheap used at Future Shop, like Assassin's Creed Revelations at $25.

Those of you going to Stooples, they have a 32gb class 6 SD card for $15 today only, so if you're in the need for a cheap SD card just ask if they have any left. Buying this and two games at $20 each will bump you over the $50 mark which will also entitle you to a free $10 Sears GC.
I saw that Tintin at Staples and was a little concerned about it -- no French on the packaging suggests to me it might be a U.S. copy brought across the border... and possibly a different UPC code... knowing Future Shop that could be problematic.
(EDIT: And those price tags are in Staples across the country -- they've all stocked up with those "Bargain Games" boxes)

TinTin at Amazon.ca
TinTin at Chapters
It's the same SKU that Amazon and Chapters both have listed. AFAIK the Canadian version is the same SKU with different packaging: ala the billingual cover Chapters has on their product page versus the monolingual one Amazon (and Best Buy) have listed.
Thursday or when they run OOS.
So...
I got
Tintin $20
Halo Anniversary $15
F1 2011 $20 (after $10 KH coupon)
AC:R $30 (hopefully this will drop to $20 again in 60 days so I can use price protection)
Max Pryce 3 $17
No Jockey to be found from 3 EB. East Toronto always sucks for cheap game fodder.
$102 (or $92 if AC:R is back to $20) for a 3DS XL that I don't even know what game it has!

I'm in Markham and managed to get two copies. Had to drive a bit for both, though. One from Richmond Hill, one from Aurora. Going to use one for the system and one for NSMB2. Might go to two different Future Shops.

Super jelly of you guys, I really wish I knew why Manitoba was excluded in this hot deal, I could have found enough fodder around here to take advantage of this.
Probably some kind of pawn shop law?

There used to be a by-law in Winnipeg only but apparently it is no longer in effect either.
Where?
- Jockey EB
- Halo Anniversary Future Shop with Click coupon
- Mass Effect 3 WalMart?
- Max Payne 3 Future Shop with Click coupon

What's the preorder cost? If I put money down today to reserve one can I get that deposit back when I do the deal tomorow?
