Any DVD included? I thought it rang up as 'Combo' which I assumed includes DVD, but looking now at the packaging can't see anything to indicate a DVD is included. Might return it since I'll be rebuying next BD when the 3D combo is $9.99 :-)

I'm more amazed some people even ask. They know they're supposed to add express shipping but are hoping to find someone who doesn't know that and take advantage.

Should have picked up Green Lantern when I had the chance earlier

Had at least 10 copies on the rack in front of me, now OOS everywhere...

Did manage to get Kick Ass (BD/DVD/DC) with slipcover for $6.99 though

FS has it on their website for $9.99 until January 8th. Looks like I will be going to Best Buy next week. I already own it on DVD but I'm sure I could sell it for $5-10. This would be a worthy and more compact upgrade.

Good point. $4.99 Amelie ends on the 6th of January. Shouldn't Boxing Week be over by then? After all, Boxing Day was last Monday.
I could try and PM next week.

Best Buy's ends on the 2nd and Future Shop's on the 5th. The problem is going to be with finding stock, as the online systems are down until the 6th and the 9th at each store.

Last year I got lucky and they didn't even bother checking stock, so its probably worth a try.

I've been trying to get ahold of Saints Row 3 (PS3) for since boxing day. I went late boxing day, sold out as expected. Went back Wenesday and was told the next shipment was coming the next day, went in Thursday, was told the same thing, went back yesterday, they said last night. I phoned the store this morning and they're still out, expecting the shipment soon

What's worse? They've put it in their flyer AGAIN even though it's been sold out at all stores in the area since boxing day (assuming it was in stock on Boxing Day...)

At times like this, speed dial is your friend.

$20 cheaper at FS and BB

It was $29.99. Are you saying FS and BB had it for $9.99?

FYI, the EB paper flyer was inaccurate. Prices for certain games (e.g. ASSASSIN'S CREED REVELATIONS) was advertised at $29.99 in the flyer, but was actually $19.99 in the store. SHIFT 2 was $9.99 for PS3.

[ilovedealsonmovies]

[spawningblue]

Has anyone seen Tree of Life in any F-Shops? Preferably in the Hamilton, Ontario area?

Are you sure we're talking about Saints Row THE THIRD?

I went into a couple of EB Games, it was $39.99 during boxing week, both stores were sold out.

Now EB has it back up to the regular price of $59.99, while BB has it at $40 for today, FS until the 5th.

Yeah Saints Row The Third was sold out at most EB Games by the end of Boxing Day because they were selling it for 29.99. However, their website had stock all through boxing week for $39.99, so you could have bought it online.

It was Canada wide. They even posted it on their Twitter page.

Hey there,

I was in S. Ontario over Boxing Day and went to EB Games at
Scarborough Town Centre,
the one on Morningside & Milner,
the one on McCowan and Finch, and
Markville Mall

by noon on Boxing Day. STC was a total zoo. Wasted about 30 min in line there before finding out that they were sold out of what I was looking for. I still hadn't made it into the store!

Morningside & Milner is a good location as they still had a lot of stock as did McCowan & Finch. McCowan & Finch was a really good location because they were really organized and even though there was a line, it moved quickly and it was like a well-oiled assembly line in there.

Markville was crazy.

I also went to Lime Ridge Mall in Hamilton where they have not one EB, but an EB and a Game Stop! What is with that? Same stock and same sales but two locations in the mall. I found stuff in one that wasn't available in the other. Lime Ridge also has a kick-ass food court.

Sorry this post got a little off-topic. I could go on, but yeah all the EBs had sales lower than what was advertised in the flyer. They also had a lot of $9.99 games which were not advertised like SHIFT 2.

FS and BB were more expensive, but I got a bunch of games on clearance at FS. Bought too many games this year, so I passed on the $29.99 SAINTS ROW THE THIRD. But they were in-stock.
