How do you hide something so that only people that quote it can see?

Amazon Canada buy a $50 digital gift card apply promo code
Get $10 credit applied to your account
--you can email gift card to yourself--

So, if I buy two $50 gift cards for something I was going to buy anyways, I get two $10 codes emailed to me?

It's only supposed to work once per account (if it works at all), but it's supposedly showing up as valid for subsequent purchases, so if you're going to use that second $50 anyways you could try?

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.

on a side note, I stepped on my dog's bone and rolled my ankle badly. Can't walk up the stairs to play video games so i'm now lying on the couch. maaannnnn

Ubisoft sale on the eShop. Wonder if I should pick up ZombiU for $10
Guess I'll play the demo.

It's actually been even cheaper physical at Best Buy. Crazy I know. Rayman Legends is a steal at $10, and I'd say ACIV and Cloudberry Kingdom are worth the price. Worth noting we get the same sale prices as the U.S. so it's like a double sale.

FYI this sale ends tomorrow, though, so time is running out.
 
How long ago did the nuggets deal at Burger King expire? I went there tonight after the movies, hoping it was still on but assuming it wasn't, and it was not. I wasn't going to pay $6 for nuggets, so I just went with two $1.50 chicken burgers and a large fry to add on to my popcorn I ate at the movies.

Of course, as I was driving home and started to dig into the fries, they were ice cold.

so Batman is $40 and Fallout4 is $50. any word on GOTY editions hitting soon for either of these games?

Batman probably won't take too long, although I wouldn't hold my breath for a Fallout 4 GOTY edition - I don't even know if they have a date for the first piece of DLC yet.
 
A bit off topic, but what are some opinions on Lay's wasabi ginger chips?

Had some today for the first time and my gawd...
they're fucking delicious

I had them one or two weeks ago, I love kettle cooked and this one was pretty yummy. I love wasabi too, I don't like ginger but the ginger part was light.

I enjoyed the ginger, and the soy sauce flavor was actually pretty good.

I can't really see this flavor lasting too long, but I'm glad I tried it.

Fallout 4 pretty much guaranteed to get a re-release with all its DLC, Oblivion did, Fallout 3 did, Skyrim did, hell I think even Fallout New Vegas did, but its not gonna happen for a while.
 
What's my best bet for cheap but decent quality N3DS and N3DSXL cases? I want to get one to protect my Pokemon N3DS from dust, and one to protect/keep my XL safe when I take it out places.

I see an I-Con case for the 3DS XL (I think) at Walmart for less than $8. Is the no name brand and cheap price indicative of it being ass?

I'd prefer not to buy online, as I have no CC.

Yeah

New Vegas definitely did. I bought the game at launch, but it was too glitchy to play, and I didn't get to it again until after the GOTY was out. So, I used a $20 off at FS coupon and bought the GOTY for $20 or less when it was on sale, played all of the DLC using it, then traded it back in for more than I paid.
 
Save the money for NX. Better yet, get the $10 off on $50 Amazon gift card. Perfect to use for Nintendo's upcoming console

Assuming the code works for them. Is it strange that I'm still ticked it didn't work for me even though they gave me the $10 credit without having to buy the gift cert?

I'm not usually an early adopter for new consoles though. I'm intrigued by NX but I'd rather take a wait-and-see approach to what features they offer and what its library looks like (Did the same thing with the 3DS, didn't get it until I saw releases like Kid Icarus: Uprising, Pokemon X, etc).

My Razer Krakens are in need of retiring, so what are some good headsets? They don't have to be 'Gaming Headsets', but preferably something similar to Krakens (comfy, 7.1 surround etc). Thanks!

Not really strange. It's probably those rare breed of CSR where they give free credits for no reason. Also, try buying the amazon gift so that you can get an extra $10 off.

Ah, yeah. Also, looks like the $10 off will only last till May anyway.

I like the Audio-Technica ATH-M50X, though I might consider picking up open headphones eventually. I've never had good experiences with gaming headsets personally, particularly surround sound versions.

So, you don't see this message when you are about to place your order?
Important message
Congratulations. Your purchase qualifies you for an Amazon.ca credit. A $10 promotional code will be automatically applied to your account and emailed to you within three (3) days after shipping.
If it's not working, then contact the CSR and tell them that the code is not working. They will usually try it and see if the code is working. They did that to me yesterday.

I got the email saying I got the $10 added but have no clue where it shows up in my account. My gift card balance is unchanged.

Gah! I bought by ATH-M50's just before they announced the M50X. Would have preferred those for the swapable cables. I don't need another set of headphones...seriously. But I feel compelled to buy the Sennheiser G4ME ZERO.

Only question is...
