Only you can decide that. I would say that it is as good as it will get. Also, if you are going to buy it get two years worth of sub so you can qualify for $15 rewards back.

its the old price but better than current 69.99 price
if you are a ps+ user, then its probably best price it will get...

Does anyone know how long this is on sale for? I assume it insta-activates but don't really want PS+ until Destiny 2 comes out. Hoping that another retailer prices matches with digital codes or physical cards that I can activate when I want..
You'll have to buy something else as well 2x$49.99 isn't $100.
Amazon has yet to budge on the Switch games, even though Mario is still in stock at Wal-Mart.
But yeah, I'm sure Splatoon and potentially Arms will restock once Wal-Mart can figure out some more numbers and such. I imagine these prices will last till Thursday! It's just, will Amazon budge while they're in stock or just hold out?
I think in the past they always rounded it, So $49.99 was counted as $50.
It is only offered this week.

Wait, what's this $15 rewards?
I wouldn't bank on that. Grab a cheap avatar or microtransaction or something just to be safe if you're not gonna grab anything else.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Spend $100 get $15 back on PSN
If you spend $100 on PSN from now until June 16 then you will get $15 of rewards back. It is PSN money, but it is still better than nothing.

I may just jump on Splatoon 2 then... We're not expecting it to go lower at any point, are we? (I don't even have a Switch yet.)
Will I need to reach $100 for free shipping on Walmart? I'll probably hold out for Amazon in that case...

Agreed. I've had it count before but you never know when Sony will decide to be a piece of shit.

I don't how many of you are interested in Gran Tursimo Sport, but the pre-order for Limited Edition is currently in stock $59.96 on Walmart. Regular Edition is $49.96 on Amazon and Walmart.

And the noodle trick is confirmed to work for that?

Why are you so against Walmart?
If you want those games for sure just order from them.
Its not like Amazons offering their own deals or any kind of initiative for that matter. Prime is worthless too.
Yeah, it was mentioned in the previous page, but if people want to order a single game from Walmart and not pay shipping, the best option is to have select the post office pickup option, which is free (at least at $49.96 before tax). I'm sure it's easy to find a filler item, but it's probably also a bit less hassle to cancel if it's just the single item.
(EDIT: ha ha, beaten, that's what I get for rambling about the stuff below)
BTW, I totally understand the push for a separate thread, but I agree E3 really is the substance of all the discussion at the moment and it's very on topic... just when you've got pages of people saying "hey, look at these games I ordered" you sometimes need to dig around a bit for the valuable information. (But who's to say a separate thread wouldn't have the exact same issue).
Speaking of which, hey look at these games I ordered: Still hoping Amazon matches Walmart on Mario Odyssey, but I bit the bullet and ordered it from WM. Also got a couple I don't know that I actually want (Days Gone, God of War) along with Red Dead via Amazon. After that, the stuff I actually wanted that we knew about from previous E3s, I had ordered during previous E3s.

Eh, nothing against them, just I already had preorders in so it'd be less of a hassle if they get updated automatically rather than having to cancel and reorder. No big deal, just saves me a few minutes or having to worry if they go out of stock while I'm ordering or something. At the end of the day it doesn't matter that much. Game's a game and a price is a price.

Guaranteed release day delivery and I pay for Prime so I get games a day earlier sometimes.
Further, fuck Wal-Mart, for the many reasons that make it an anti-competitive, anti-union, anti-employee company, not to mention one of their murderer owners who literally got away with homicide.

PREACH.
DO NOT SEGREGATE THE COMMUNITY, there is no need for a new thread, E3 deals is something this thread is specifically designed for.

Can anybody possibly help here? I've been trying to buy this S8+ which comes to $1240 after tax. I have more than enough money. I've tried to both buy in store and on Amazon, all times my bank declines. I went in to raise my daily limit since I thought that was the problem, but I learned my limit has already been $2500. The bank has no idea whats wrong.
Anyone else had a similar issue?

Have you tried placing the order through phone? Did you call your credit card company, asking why your card couldn't be charged?

Considering I haven't been in a Wal-Mart in 3 years, I would say yes, that other stuff stops me from shopping there.
