Ravenous

I went to 2 and it was a huge ordeal! Why? Cause most the games I wanted had been stolen! I was so pissed cause all the Wii were gone and PS3 and God of War 2

But I got 5 games (all PS2 and GC) and 5 DVDs. Games were really low in my area (most stores are closing and games are scarce) and I really wanted Pathfinder, Children of Men, Pans Lybrinith 2 disc

Im going to try some stores tomorrow.

I'm trying it in the morning at 3 stores. Hopefully everything will work!

Gonna hit up 3 stores in the morning as well...after a nice hour long work out bwahahaha

Hitup the other 2 stores in town and it worked like a charm. You can't beat 20 good games for 100.00.

In addition to the first list I picked these 10 up.
360
The Darkness
Gears of War
2x Bioshock. One of them actually had the slipcover which is nice
Dead or Alive 4
The bigs
Earth defence force 2017 (Yeah this one was a mistake but they had nothing left!)

Wii
Madden 08
Big brain academy Wii Degree
Metal Slug Anthology

Hoping this continues to work tomorrow. Going to try in the morning for any games I missed and some dvds.

I hit up 5 stores in Orange County.

1st store - got denied because the deal was too great. Called her general and district manager. District manager said it was fraudulent because he never heard anything about it. Told them to scan it and see if it goes through but she wouldn't do it.

2nd store - they were cool about it. Looked at the coupon, scanned all the games and then scanned the coupon. It went through. Cashier (cute btw) said it was a good deal and laughed (I think she digs me).

3rd store - same as the 1st store but manager(also cute) told me to come back once she talks to the dm tomorrow.

4th store - same as second. No problem. He didn't even hesitate accepting the coupon. Then we started talking about Transformers and Michael Bay. Cool guy.

5th store - Close to the first store. Got denied right away as I was showing the coupon. She said DM called and told them not to accept any 5 for $25 coupon.

Got 10 games for $50 and change. This is the best deal I've gotten and I've been on this board since 2000.

To the cashiers that are saying they have to override, they are lying, it scans no problem. It's just that they don't want to give you the deal, which is understandable.

Thanks Calhoun!! You the man!

I assume everyone is printing the coupon from the picture posted in this thread.

1) Does it need to be a certain size?

2) Does it matter if it's printed in color or not?

3) Has anyone been asked where they got the coupon...if so, is there a correct or incorrect answer?

4) Am I right that the coupon can only be used once? (I'm guessing they annotate it somehow on your account)

I apologize if these are questions I should already know the answer to

Gara

1
I just printed it using the native resolution of the picture which made is kind of big but easy to read for the cashier.

2
I imagine it makes it look more official in color but if the store is going to give you a hard time or not probably won't depend on the picture being in color.

3
A couple of them did. I just said I received it in a email and they just nodded their head.

4
It says it can only be used once but I had no problem using it at 4 different stores. The first 2 wanted my membership card (it didn't put a note on my account I am guessing) and the last 2 didn't even ask for my membership card.

akolang2

Thanks for the responses, Gara...much appreciated

Definately trying this tomorrow!

I'm in California and it worked for me. 2 BB(near each other) my friends went to did not take the coupon, but 2 others they went to scanned them and they worked fine; no over-ride or whatever required. It could be that the quality of the print-out affects the coupon's ability to be scanned. btw i'd like to thank the person who posted the coupon, and my friend, who alerted me to the deal.

sinizine

I work at one and had never even heard of this coupon. If I had to wager, I'd bet it was designed for either a going out of business sale or a franchise store. But hey, I'll give it a try myself.

sinizine

Oh, and somebody asked if you needed a membership, technically you do, as you need one for any of the "One time Use Per Account" coupons but really most people manning the registers won't look that closely. However, given the absurd deal, you can probably bet that most will at least look a little at the coupon and might see that notice.

rider555

Oh hell,another reason to step in to my local BB.They don't sell PC games,do they?

Kipz

To the people who got this to work, what how did you print it? I can't get it to print right. It either comes out 2 inches wide or a full page.

matrixrok9

"Inc" was also misspelled, in the original post, it was "Ing". One of the managers noticed this and raised a red flag because she said the coupons usually don't have typos.

DeputyDave

Damn, I'm working nights and won't get off until 6:00 AM. I can't stay awake until 10:00 when BB opens so I'll have to wait until the afternoon.

I'm sure you vultures will have burned out the deal by then

Trevor

This is definitely not a legit coupon, but obviously made with an understanding of BBV's system.

I'll pass on giving it a try.

alfonsosoriano

I think I saw something about it originally being intended for Kansas only.

n.phelge

Did you read the OP's description of where he found it: link

Trevor

Yep, but maybe I should have worded it less harshly. Definitely not meant for universal use I would say.

Kudos to you all if you get it to work, but I'd rather not try in this case, as I don't live in Kansas (anymore).

DJ_Longfellow

Well, I will try later today....hopefully we have more reports of success.

DVDmaniac14

i'm sure eventually blockbuster is going to find out about this mistake and send a notification to all the stores saying "DO NOT SCAN THIS COUPON"...but im hoping not.

going about 30 mins after they open...hoping the clerks don't turn me away cuz of the AMAZING deal this is...

dead_rsng53

I hope this still works after school today :/

alfonsosoriano

Yeah and hope you get a lame brain employee who missed that notice.

Spiderbite

My biggest question...how are the quality of their used games? Are they scratches and beat up to shit or in decent condition? $5 for $25 is great unless the games don't work due to condition.
