Poll of the Day > Today, I went to GameStop to pick up a game I prepaid for...

(+) Yeah! (+)

And ended up spending over $1,000

Ended up with Three Hopes (which I already paid for)

But also got a PS5 bundle And a rug/doormat

damn, game stop employees still refusing to let you leave until they steal your wallet, eh?

See, I have a secret to avoid spending exorbitant amounts at my local, the secret is: be poor and have no money.

I don't really like Gamestop anymore. Most of the time it's just one or two people working there. Yes the stores are clean and it's easy to find what you want. But corporate forces them to do a lot of unnecessary crap.

Ive heard that before Though, the employees were nice I use to avoid them, but they are good with game stuff, so

Yeah. They are I was just texting her that they had some in, and I might get one. And she said told me to get it, and that she would send my money when she got paid. I wasnt even planning on her giving me money. I was just texting her because we were talking about it the other day

Even when the Wii came out years ago, I asked if she could loan me some money since my friends wanted me to wait in line (while I was working) to get one. And in the morning, she came to buy it for me She always helps me and my siblings

I ordered an in store item a few hours before they opened thinking I'd get a pick-up email shortly after they opened

.. it took 'em til 6pm

They're not exactly the busiest store in town

Congrats! Make sure to download Astro bot for free and see how do you feel about the controller. I enjoy the controller myself. Feel free to add me on PSN if you want.

Im not sure how their online stuff works, tbh I always do stuff in store. Like pre-orders/prepay, and stuff like that I also usually do it days ahead. That way, I wont have to worry about stuff like that. You would think they would be on top of it, though

That said, I did try to call my store after I left because I wanted to check and see if they had something there because I forgot to get it, but no one answered. But when I got to the store, there were no customers. I mean, I guess there could have been customers when I called, but I dont think so. The other two military guys and I were almost the last three. Maybe like 2 other people after. But they were mostly done why the time I left. So, Idk

I will add you once I get all settled in. I was surprised they had it. And Im glad I waited for the stores to be restocked.

Yeah. When I got mine it was all online and locked behind paywalls. Lucky enough I got a free trial of prime so it worked out. It's even harder to go into a store and find one over here.
