Got one today at the Hampton, VA OD. Thanks!

Did this yesterday for 3 PS2 games. I combined it with their Free $5 giftcard when you buy $50 of giftcards deal. Bought the cards then turned around and paid for the games with them. Thankfully, the store was empty and the clerk was very helpful about doing the multiple transactions. So I...

Look carefully at that rebate. New Line is handling the rebate, so its available regardless of where you buy the discs. The bigger point is that the rebate is only for people who bought both the current standard edition and one of the two extended edition sets. You get $5 back if you get the...

The fancy controllers are 4 frequency - you can use the one controller with any of the Japanese made Bits by moving a switch on the controller. The controller is also required to access the 2-speed "boost" mode on the slightly fancier car.

A few more Tiny RC related links: News and Discussion Forums: Tiny RC Forum Lincoln's TinyRC has great pics & movies of the different format cars. Stores: Toyeast.com's RC stuff Both News and Accessory Sales: Quest for Madness I've made one order from toyeast that worked out great (I got one...

It looks like there's only one "model 3" car in the $11.50 pack. This is a pretty good price compared to Toyeast's $10 price for a BitChar-A OEM generic car, but Albert PC only has one frequency available, so you can't buy two and race them. Nor can you pick your colors. Fun cars at a good...

Dropped by B&N at lunch. Saw the coupon in FHM, but did not see one in Maxim with a quick flip through. The coupon has something similar to "cannot be combined with other coupons or offers" on it. I wonder if this includes the $35 special price. Has anyone actually bought this for $25 this week?

(Sorry about multiple replies). A little more digging shows that most of the 30 games are also on sale, giving AR prices like: MechWarrior 4: Vengeance $19.99 Zoo Tycoon: $19.99 Age of Empires 2 Gold: $29.99 Crimson Skies: $6.99 Midtown Madness 2: $6.99 Asheron's Call: Free

It looks like the rebate applies to about 30 Microsoft games bought through Amazon, so things like AoE, AoE2, Zoo Tycoon and Flight Sim all qualify as well.

My local Blockbuster also had a 25% off promotion on used games, tapes, and dvds. Picked up Maximo (marked 9.99) and Star Wars Racer Revenge (marked 14.99) for under $20 total after tax.

DVD-R is the format that is most compatible with home DVD decks, followed by DVD-RW, with DVD+RW in last place. The compatiblity of the new DVD+R format has yet to be determined. To see for yourself visit www.vcdhelp.com. (My 104 is arriving today, so this is a timely deal!)
