Can I use the $5 monthly coupon on gift cards?

Yes you can in store but not online please note not all gift cards will apply to this rule.

I have a $XX.xx pre-owned reward certificate, and I want to use it on a B2G1 transaction. Should I?
It depends. If the three games are equal value, do not use your certificate. The value of the certificate would be applied to the free game, which would not benefit you. If one game is more expensive, you can use the certificate to make it the same value as the other two games ($5 reward certificate applied to transaction with two $10 games and one $15 game would make all three games $10).



TERMINOLOGY AND LINGO:
ASL/SL: Assistant Store Leader, Store Leader; manager positions at GS.
B2G1: Buy two, get one free.
GS: GameStop
JD: Junior detective, an employee who is out to get someone
LP: Loss Prevention; this is the department that actually bans accounts after being flagged.
TC/TiC: Trade credit.
TIV/TV: Trade in value, or what a game currently trades for. When posting a TV for a game, always use the base value.

Fc24 for PS4 is $24.99 at Target. Trades in for $41 with bonus

Unable to price match at GameStop due to "game has to be in stock at nearest competitor BY DRIVING DISTANCE".

Also since I doubt the value will hold by the one week delivery time from Target
 
24 what? Are we talking about the Xbox version? It still says max $25 so I'm guessing 30% towards preorder will make it 32 right?
I forget the exact amount. On the weekend madden for Xbox traded in for like $24 after the 30% boost. Now it went up. You’ll get $29.90 with pre order
 
I'll go to GameStop tomorrow to see if there any games in the 4 for 10 to use with my $5 monthly coupon. Heck, if there are any four for 20 games I'll get those.
 
I was able to trade mine in yesterday night and still got the bump I wonder if it's still working today????
Just to be clear, I believe ritchardf was referring to the bumped/increased TIVs from Friday-Sunday which have since ended, not the 30% bump/promo a Pro member gets when preordering/buying anything in the same transaction.

Dang how much of a boost did that weekend had? Like 10% extra?
 
You weren't supposed to get a coupon in April if that's when you signed up. If you signed up in the last week of that month, you won't get your coupon until next week.
 
Anyone know why GameStop sells used copies of RE Village Gold for more than the regular version? I assumed content was on the disc, but it appears the Gold version included a DLC voucher code. Might try and find a standard version for the 4/$40.
 
Hey guys, I haven’t been to CAG since I don’t even know how long and just stepped foot in GameStop for the first time in like 3-4 years last month. I’m back in my ways and looking to make some poor financial decisions. This time around I want to upgrade my disc-less PS5 to a disc version and I’m trading in my old one and some controllers, but I’m wondering if used or refurb is the way to go these days. I’ve had both from GameStop years ago with the usual bad quality. Any chance they improved or stepped up in either department?

You know there's a disc drive for digital PS5s right? Probably cheaper than a trade in and console purchase.
