so for any1 who still wants to try PMing FS against CS's GT4 and/or GoW + get $10 GC, u have another wk to do so :)

---------------------------------------------

starting TOMORROW, according to flyer, FS will be having a promo for their PS2 games where u get a $10 GC w/ any PS2 game

BUT in the fine print it actually mentions the following:

*With any advertised PS2 game. One bonus offer per customer. No dealers. Not valid with any other promotional offer. Not applicable to previous purchases. See in-store for details.

the advertised PS2 games are as follows: GT4, God of War, Chronicles of Narnia, MGS3: Subsistence, and Kingdom Hearts II.

FS ($30): Gran Turismo 4 (PlayStation 2) (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10052166&catid=11135)

FS ($30): God Of War (PlayStation 2) (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10057801&catid=11135)

FS ($40): The Chronicles Of Narnia (PlayStation 2) (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10067844&catid=11134)

FS ($40): Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence (PlayStation 2) (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10071463&catid=11137)

FS ($60): Kingdom Hearts II (PlayStation 2) (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10071795&catid=11136)


dunno how the "free $10 GC" works online tho... (maybe automatically add $10 GC to cart?)

think the best deal here would be God of War... it's like getting it for $20.

i recall TRU selling this for $30 at 1 point, and then CS was selling it for $25 last mth (http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/showthread.php?t=260360)

$20 is a v. good deal for God of War IMO.


EDIT: just noticed CS is STILL selling GT4 and GodofWar for $25 (must be their EDLP)... i wonder if u can get FS to PM against CS *AND* get the $10 GC... :twisted:... drop it down to ~$15 for each of these 2 games... :razz:

CS ($25): God Of War PlayStation2, w/ Bil.Man. (http://www.compusmart.com/Product/Default.aspx?CatalogID=0&SupplierPartNo=535127)

CS ($25): Gran Turismo 4 PlayStation2 (http://www.compusmart.com/Product/Default.aspx?SupplierPartNo=535088)


enjoy! :)

i have a suggestion, use the $10 GC on the "other" $30 game (i.e. GT4 or GoW)... and then get ANOTHER $10 GC :razz: (and then keep on doing that... the cycle never ends ahahahaha :lol: )

Can anyone get the online discount to work? It should be taking off $10 in you cart once you add one of these games and another item, but it's not working for me.

Picked up GOW after PM with compusmart AND they gave me 10$ GC ... which is applied on the GOW :D:D:D That was in the Greenfield park location. No questions, no doubts, no hassle with the cashier.

So the grand total is 18,98 for GOW tax in. :) Thanx mjm!

And I didn't know FS had these video game bins like superstore and walmart.. must be a trend these days...

Hot deal! I went to Future Shop to buy MGS3: Subsistence and got the $10 gift card. I then PM'ed Dragon Quest 8 (Best Buy price is $29.99) and used the gift card towards it.

Totals:
MGS3: Subsistence = $45.99 taxes in
Dragon Quest 8 = $22.19 taxes in

Thanks to the OP! I didn't look at the Future Shop flyer closely and would have missed the deal for the GC.

u should buy the game at full price 1st, get the $10 GC, and then go back to try for the PM... :)

tell them, PM is not a promotion, rather a company (FS) policy that has been around for a long time. the GC promotion clearly says not to be in conjunction with any other offers or promotions, but PM i dont really consider it as a promotion so it's worht a try...it worked for me btw, but later i found out that i got jipped off 10% part, they only did 100% match...too lazy to go back and argue so i just kept it.

^ u've got a great point there... i actually never bothered to think of it that way...

hm... i should try it using that reason... seems like quite a valid reason for me

PM + GC makes the GT4 or GoW a pretty damn good deal :)

rlhchan
Apr 4th, 2006, 04:57 PM
had anyone tried using that reason and worked? i wonder....
two more days left >:(
