in other news gamestop is currently going through either a ridiculous sale or a lot of cancelations.

buy 1 get 1 free.
on modern pre-owned games.

Did this already go away? I had some stuff in my cart last night on the B2G1 at like 3am and decided I'll buy when I get up in the morning as I was going to add 1 more but couldn't work out what. I never saw the B1G1 and now literally every thing (8 items) I had in my cart is sold out and I still don't see B1G1

Went to Gamestop at 6:15 am. Saw 20 people in line so I left.

My cousin came after me. He swears (I know he is full of shit) that the person in front of him got the last xbox. They had 6 PS5s and 2 Xbox Series X.

Can't help but think this was to be expected. Those deals were damn good. You could easily call the B2G1 a steal. No way they realistically last too long.

Got a limited edition Kids See Ghosts vinyl for Record Store Day today. Surprised how normal the mall was, i expected way more people

b1g1 is not a thing

So I'm looking for a new gaming laptop

How big a difference is it between

i7 9th Gen / i5 10th Gen / i7 10th Gen
GTX 1650 to RTX 2050

I definitely have a buy 1 get 1 order confirmation so we'll see if it gets cancelled I guess. I really doubt it does because even the promo images last night said buy 1 get 1 free.

The only scary thing is that my receipt says B2G1 Free

I bought a pair of these. $199 down from $329. Never had a high quality dedicated pair of gaming headphones for desktop PC gaming, so hoping these can show me what I've always been missing and last a long time to boot.

---

yeah it was a glitch sale. but for a glitch it went on a LONG time.
hyper x is a good brand for headsets. i've got earlier, cheaper versions and have no complaints.

augh super mario bros u deluxe hit $27 for digital on amazon but it's not available anymore

It was 27 at GameStop physical

---

Just got shipping confirmation for my B1G1 order from Gamestop. Bummer I couldn't find more games I wanted to take advantage of it.

---

also got confirmation just now.
woo Xenoblade.


---

GameStop had PS5 bundles on and off about an hour ago. I was at work. :(

---

To whom it may concern, several Jojo's Bizarre Adventure (and some other anime) Blu Ray sets are on sale. I finally bought DIU Part 2.

The gamestop bundles today really sucked.

I really think all of them except the Spiderman-DemonsSouls one were pretty terrible

---

Still love how gamestop continues to get away gouging their customers by forcing them into bundles.

---

If I were a retailer I would sell a $2000 bundle with every game under the sun in it. People would still buy it

my annual humble bundle sub was apparently up. i thought i paused but guess not--and now I've jsut been charged for a few year at the regular price. gonna ask for a refund but ugh

This just happened to me too kinda. I was on a 6 month $9 plan for 6 months and if just upped to $20 and charged me today. I haven't even picked any games in the last 3 months

Guess who just walked into Walmart and got a PS5 :D

What really??

---

Yep! I am so damn happy right now. No idea how they even had any since I thought they were doing online only still, but I happened to see them on a cart behind the register in the electronic section and they let me buy one.

People who bought them Wednesday at Walmart could pick them up today.

Edit: nevermind.

---

I am so fucking furious. I had Best Buy 1 step from a console and then it went OOS. Fucking dumb.

Did you see any Xbox's, swordz9?

---

Honestly I dont know. Ive never actually seen what the new Xbox box even looks like.

Definitely didnt notice one of those boxes. They had it on a dolly and only had 3 left when I grabbed mine so I just got insanely lucky

Was able to cancel my Walmart order and got the last copy of DBZ Kakarot for cheaper too! Man Im having a great day.

I see Age of Calamity is $10 cheaper at amazon than what I paid at walmart. Was considering canceling and ordering there, but I think I am just gonnna not worry about it.

Some of the online stock came up as pick up at store only.

Got myself Demons Souls (never played it before) and Miles Morales. This has been the best Black Friday ever for me and probably even the best day Ive ever had

*blows trumpet for swordz9*

Black Friday hauls are always a blast.

---

Congrats, swordz!

I went to Walmart to pay off a Switch Lite layaway for the kids' Christmas presents, and thought to check out the streaming and TV antennas.

I'm putting up my new TV tomorrow, and wanted to check what they had. I've been researching on the Chromecast with Google TV, and actually saw they had one left.

So I ended up with a streaming dongle for my new TV.

I finally got my computer desk. I started saving for one because I've been spending way more time spriting, and been wanting to take it more seriously but I've been developing pains on my shoulder. I do think one of the factors is the desk, its from like the 80s and its a little taller than most desks

anywho

it was originally 600 bucks with the hutch but i got it for around 250ish

AND I got it 10% off because I got the last one, the display model

I spend two days scoping them out, and buying it on the 2nd

the first day I also planned on getting a chair too. They were all on sale and it was fun trying them

an employee even followed me around and helped me the first day. I actually COULDN"T buy the the first day if I even wanted to because I needed help, since it was the floor model it was already assembled and I needed help transporting it.

second day comes
The chairs are no longer on sale. I noticed some of the stickers ripped off on the chairs but there were also some that had the sale stickers still on. Nope. ALL of them were off. and she did not tell me this yesterday. I was pretty annoyed

They said they were gonna help move it outside to the transportation I needed to get. Cool
When they actually go, they were like..."Oh noes, its heavy , we can't do it"
How did you NOT know you couldn't do it? THATS NOT WHAT YOU FUCKING TOLD ME THE DAY BEFORE. I had to ask a favor for a friend and hes waiting outside you FUCKING Dolts. So they said I had to wait one more day because the guy that assembles shit comes in tomorrow. They allowed me to purchase the desk at the BF price but...I hope nothing bad comes out of that because I had to leave it there

thats where I'm at

---

So this PS4 to PS5 data transfer thing. Do I gotta do that to get all my PS4 games and save data on the PS5? If Im understanding it right just signing into my same PSN account wont transfer everything

Where the Cyber Monday leaks at? Curious if anything else will go on sale like Ori Switch

My PS5 shipped.

No more being scared that Walmart might screw me over.

yay.

So I went and they still didn't disassemble it and the people there had no idea they had to

so I asked for a refund

thats the only place in town that sells desks like that so that ends my little adventure

Weak. Gamestop fucked me on this damn animal crossing switch and there is this cool fortnite one my kid would like more. I would return the gamestop one and get the fortnite one, but I know gamestop will give me shit for returning it.

everything looks like just the black friday deals continued.

With the pandemic and everyone shopping online looks like not much of note this year.

Just ordered this. Gonna sell my Dell SG2716 to make up for this cost, plus a few other things. Interested to finally jump into the world of ultrawide.

Figures I bought Ghost of Tsushima last night for $40 and here it is at $34. This awful holiday season continues for me.

My family member got a Series X that was at Target randomly.

*Shakes head*

There are xboxes in my Walmart right now. The one manager insists they are ones that were ordered via store pickup. Another worker says they were sent there via a glitch and they don't even have a way to scan them to sell because they aren't supposed to be there and are not in their inventory.

PS5 up on PlayStation Direct right now. I'm probably not getting one. I got in 7 minutes after it went up because it went in stock literally as I got up to do laundry after having spent basically the last 48 hours glued to my computer. This is like the third time this has happened to me with this thing.

---

And it's gone. Seriously, how has this exact scenario happened to me like three times so far? And now that I'm working 55 hours a week for the next three weeks, my chances are even slimmer. This was pretty much my last opportunity.

---

I got into the queue kinda early but I also doubt that I'm going to get one. My wait says "more than an hour".

It went to Out of Stock for like a minute and now it's back to being In Stock again. I mean you might as well just sit in the queue and hope for the best.
