Title: Buy 2, Get 1 Free on video games at Toys R Us
Post by: Velorath on September 19, 2007, 12:52:04 AM
Toys R Us and Toysrus.com (http://www.toysrus.com) are having one of their Buy 2, Get 1 Free sales going on this week on all video games.  They've also got a Buy 1, Get 1 50% accessory deal.

Edit:  The website I think only has select games as part of the sale.  In-store though, it should be everything.

This is a great tip since I have to pick up both MySims and Cosmic Family this week anyway, maybe something else will be there that I want.

Damn it. Now I have to spend money this weekend. NHL08 and Tiger Woods 08.  Torn on what to get for my 3rd. Any suggestions? My catalog-

Madden 08
NCAA 08
Fight Night 3
Forza 2
GH II

I have Bioshock for the PC. I hate FPS on consoles, and am not a big RPG fan on consoles either. Help me find a free game!

I have two friends that got Tiger Woods '08, and both complain about how buggy it is and how much it crashes. Just a FYI.

You don't have Forza 2?  Only no-brainer on that list.

Isn't that the list of games he does have?

Yeah, I just read you raving about the demo in another thread. That very well may be the one I grab.

I also noticed you do not have Dead Rising. Zombies!

Don't feel so bad. I was 10 seconds away from posting derision a warning against buying Madden because of its inclusion on the list. Luckily, you trod in it before me.

Is that FPS-ey? Daddy hates thumbaiming with a passion.

Mostly melee actually, third person.

From what I'm hearing this deal has been extened through Saturday, so if anyone is planning on picking up Halo 3 this week and doesn't already have it pre-ordered somewhere else, they might want to check TRU.

Through Saturday the 29th? Woot!

Edit- Their website doesn't have any mention of the 3/2 deal any more. Can anyone confirm/deny?

Edit: Just checked the forums again, and now people are reporting it dead.

Ah ok. I will check it out after work.


Goddamn it. Just when I thought I was going to save some money, I have to drop $140 at TRU and then dump another $50 when I get home to join the rest of the asshats in Team Fortress 2. I think I spent less money when I went out drinking 4 nights a week in my misspent youth!


Edit to your edit-

Well, that might save me some money for a week or so. I can hold off on NHL 08 until the season actually starts, and I hear that Tiger 08 is buggy.

Just a heads up, word has it that this deal is returning from the 14th to the 20th of this month.  Not 100% confirmed yet, but anyone planning on picking up some games in the next week or two might want to hold off and see if this pans out.

I stopped in to check on this yesterday and it is for real. 3 for 2 through Saturday. Unfortunately GH III doesn't come out until the following week. Arrgh.

They've also got a deal for a free $20 gift cart with the puchase of a DS.
