I've been screwed multiple times recently. The only one $3 coupon excuse. McDonald's not having the coupons on the fries, and then ignoring us. And Best Buy not price matching without an newspaper ad (corporate said they don't have to call if they don't want to check the price).

Anyone know for sure if the online game is dead? The one where you enter the codes off the nornal game pieces?
It can still be played, but are there any prizes left to be awarded?
:confused:

Gee, I wonder why BB is being so grouchy towards people using BBB.

OH NOES, TEH INTARWEB POLICE ARE COMING!

Any misuse or suspected fraudulent use will void Best Buy Bucks.

Basically, the worst that can happen is they void your BBB that you allready used anyways.
:D :roll: :evil:

I sent in 50 with a handwritten outer envelope and 40 with a printed outer envelope. I've been receiving them back in small bits every day for a week now, but I'm up to over 80 returned, so I guess printed do work!

I've got a theory to ensure double dipping works. I'm paranoid they'll sit there and scan every single one in.
But on Black Friday, they're going to have a line of like 40 people, and they can't spend all that time entering codes. Plus, stuff's going to be on sale then anyway, so it's even cheaper.

But yeah, can they charge your credit card if they later discover the BBB are void?
