See the Batman: Arkham City deal, think that would be a great gift for my brother.

Add it to cart.

Apply $10 off videogame purchase that Futureshop gave me for shipping NHL 12 late.

Get error notification on the code.

Type in gift certificate ($67 value) number to pay for it anyway.

Get notification saying gift card has no money on it.

Call hotline.

Informed that a transaction was made exactly one week ago - one I sure didn't make.

Email support asking for transaction details.

Told to call in store tomorrow.

[line reserved here for edit to update that Arkham City will be sold out tomorrow]


Someone at RFD said the NHL codes expired at the end of October but the e-mail had no expiry date.

I e-mailed FS with my order number and they got back to me saying they don't know what happened and applied the code and my CC will be credited in 7-10 days........

20 dollar Batman FTW

Glory that lasts forever, AFAIK. If you're a part of the TO SFIV community, let them know! I'd love to see some high-level play there tomorrow. c:

Unfortunately most of them will be at a Waterloo tournament.

Is anyone interested in a Switcheasy Colors Iphone 4 case? http://www.switcheasy.com/product.php?product=Colors_iPhone4 got the baby blue/yellow case.

Still sealed. I wasn't thinking when I bought the case, as I wanted a juice pack battery for my phone and remembered that I can't use both. Can't return the case so I just wanted to ask here.

I used my Uncharted $10 code (think of all the money Futureshop would save if they shipped their fucking games on time) instead, so I guess I'll have to get them to credit... a different purchase?

If anyone in K-W is still looking for the Skyward Sword bundle, I have an extra one. I completely forgot I pre-ordered it at GameStop, and surprisingly they still had a bundle when I walked in earlier today.
Kaz, mine may show up totaled tomorrow (From BB). If it does, I'll pay for you to ship it to me if you can hold on to it for a day. That is, if no one has claimed it.

Wow this thread moves fast... anyways, my Zelda bundle is still available. I'll probably sell it on Kijiji next week if nobody else wants it.

Ah, I forgot about my BestBuy Rewards $5 coupon. It expires tomorrow, but if anyone wants it, I'll give it to the first person who quotes this message.
 
Okay, does anyone who lives in BC know how the hell to get quality internet that won't give you lag or NAT problems with online gaming? I don't think I've ever had good internet ever in my entire life

Telus has been fine for me in Vancouver.

If you're currently on Shaw and want to switch, try this: http://forums.redflagdeals.com/bc-telus-15-15-15-deal-ends-december-31-2011-a-1104983/#post13796977

I'll take it! AssBro for $15 would be nice.

I thought you needed your card to redeem it?

HOW COULD YOU NOT OFFER TO ME FIRST?!
You don't need jack shit to redeem it except a print out of the certificate. Hell, all you really need is the 30-digit code on it or if you want to be nice to the cashier, the barcode.

Hey, you actually could have messaged me! I probably would have given it to you before checking this thread again. :lol:

I've sent it to Firestorm, so I'll let him decide. :p

Haha, the cert does say membership card is required. I've never used one, so... no clue.
I still can't believe that they won't tie it into their website though. So silly.

ty Firehawk :)

Also I really hope there's something I can do to find a deal on Mario Kart 7 =/ Otherwise Best Buy for reward points seems to be the best way to go?
 
I have an FS order for a Zelda+steelbook I no longer need (because I already got one) so if anyone in Vancouver wants it, I'll let it go at cost.

This is what I did. It's the only 3DS game that I didn't snag during the BB insane 3DS sale. Kingdom Hearts, Metal Gear, etc. are all still on preorder for $25 with 800 RZ bonus points, but MK 7 will have to be regular price.

At the very least, I'll have a ton of RZ credit I can apply to that order by turning it into GC's, so not only will I get 800 points, but the whole thing will be paid for in RZ credits too, lol

I'm a little Ticked at Toys r us. They advertised having Super Mario 3d land for $35 but when I went to the store today I was told they haven't had stock for at least a couple of days :(

Good deal out of stock... not their fault?

I just don't think it's cosure to advertise something they didn't have in stock and hadn't had in stock for days. Maybe if it was limited to the one store but it's all of them in the area and it's also not available on their website.

It'd be one thing if they had them and sold out early in the day but to have never had them at all is kind of shady.

there's something called a phone...

I didn't have a chance since I had to go straight from work. Besides the Toys r us is right next to the Futureshop I had to make a stop at anyhow so I wasn't really going out of my way.

Flyer recall? More than one toysrus exists? I dunno, seems like a pretty lame complaint. First come first serve and apparently you were days late.

Pretty mundane although the Move bundles count this time for the 10% off. For some reason 10% off doesn't work on the Sports Champion bundle even though it's listed on the page but it works on the other bundles.

I can easily get on the site and add stuff to my cart. I haven't tried to completely finish a transaction because I don't want anything but I've gotten to the very last step without a problem.

Started working recently like <2mins ago but they pulled the 598's off the site :(

I really don't know if I should pre-order Mario Kart 7 for $36 and get 800 bonus RZ points or if I should just walk into the store on Sunday and get it for free with RZ certificates.
