Best Buy has PMed TRU's offer of a $15 gift card with purchase of L.A. Noire

Edit: You also get 500 RZ Points if you pre-order which amounts to another $10 certificate. Thanks Defendthestar31 for the reminder!

Edit 2: [quote name='flizmo007']The BB Gaming App for the iPhone shows the game on sale for $48.99. Once you click to purchase, it takes you to the site where it shows $59.99. I know this may not help but it does at least reference their $48.99 price.[/QUOTE] You can try to use this to get a PM in store.

consider that kmart has a better on la noire $20 gaming coupon plus a free $19.99 game for $40 off total there is no doubt that i will be picking up there best buy please don't let kmart beat you in the future
 
[quote name='Defendthestar31']Anyone think there will be any problems doing in-store pickup to get the giftcard and going to the midnight release to pick it up?[/QUOTE]

At the moment you can't pickup the $15 GC in-store, unless that changes tomorrow in their Sunday ad and becomes an In-store offer. If you're just asking if you can pickup your copy at midnight and still have the GC shipped to you, I don't see any reason why not, but you could always call into a store and ask a manager. I usually get my pickup notifications the day before the release of a game, so it should be set aside.

Yeah, the downside with the Kmart deal is that you have to shop at Kmart ...

[quote name='ratedpg131987']Does anybody know if you can price match at best buy for kmarts deal of a $20 and a free game because that would be a awesome deal.[/QUOTE]
best buy those greedy bast#rds need to up their game if they want to keep me as a consumer ever since circut city closed down the deals have been few and far between keep in mind this 15gc is a pm not an original sale of theirs i'm not impressed they are not going to give something away kmart is kicking their ass as of late look at the sales on games unbelievable spend 120 get 60 back come on think when it comes to money fuck pride i'll blue light special it

ps and besides josh dean the shc buyer is a cool dude to deal with

I'll happily pay $60 + tax now and get $25 credit($15 gc/$10 pre-order) then price match it down to $40 in 45 days & get my $20 cash back. Add in the 25% RZ bonus + reg RZ points(50) + gamers club points($40 out of $150) too.
My local BB adjusts the receipt on the pm so I get the full $20 back not just the "value" so the final result will be $40 + tax $25 credit and I can use $20 worth a credit to buy the same $20 game from that kmart has or use it to make my next $60 game $35.


[quote name='Velo214']yeah, i dont do kmart. sorry but nope. i will pm kmart at bestbuy tho so thanx kmart ;)[/QUOTE]exactly

I get some YMMV pm's but there's so many moving parts + they don't recognize the "gaming coupons" if it said "giftcard" done deal, the only time I can see getting the free game not excluded by "bundling" is if you were purchasing a system that came with a specific free game not just "any $20 game". Also, the gaming coupons usually aren't listed in the weekly ad or online a la the TRU gc offers.
 
Best Buy is stepping their game up slightly, but am I the only one who likes instant credit? RZ points take like FOREVER to drop. And I can use Ammy credit for almost anything. ANY-THING!
 
This may have been asked already, but does anyone know if paying for a portion of your purchase with a RZ certificate invalidates you from getting the gift card and/or the 500 point preorder bonus?

asked and answered several times; you're good to go when paying via giftcard or rz cert. you just won't earn the full value of the game ($60) towards your RZ or gamers club acct - bonus points and giftcard offers aren't affected.
 
[quote name='Donut2922']Based on the website listing, the $15 GC deal is online only.

Off topic, PSN is back up.[/QUOTE]

Well that sucks. I preordered in store on Friday. I guess I'll just have to settle with the $10 off card then. On another note, is the rewardzone website down? I keep getting a page not found error.

Just pricematch TRU when you pick up your copy on Tuesday. That'll get you the $15 GC.

I'm just doing an online order for in-store pickup just to be safe to avoid the hassle of PM's. My local BB's dont even PM "online only" deals like GC's to their own website :cry: They just always tell me to do online orders with in-store pickups instead :roll:
 
Gonna get mine from gohastings, but I know it won't be in till the weekend. I think I'm gonna go to BB or somewhere and get it, then the one that comes in from GH I'll just carry back and get my money back on that one.

Not impatient really to play thisl, but this week should be pretty lull, and the weekend will be super busy. I'd like to try this out, I've specifically refused to look at anything on it, I just love noir stuff and R* usually doesn't disappoint.
 
[quote name='scarhawk']Yeah in store pick-ups are always the best route. Takes 2 mins to PM.[/QUOTE]

But they can't pricematch online orders in store, you have to call bestbuy.com to do it, and even then they'll only PM BB prices...

...or anyway that was the run around I got when I picked up portal and tried to PM kmart.

Is there a work around?

really????? so i cant price match with an online order??
 
Nope, only way to PM an instore-pickup is by calling up Best Buy. And they only match themselves.

Thats why im getting instore ^_^, ill PM the 15$ gift card, and still be able to PM anywhere else that drops below 59.99$

Yeah, the pricematch policy that they posted on BestBuy.com says that bb.com orders only pricematch Best Buy stores/BB.com. But they aren't clear on if in-store pick up counts as a bb.com order or a Best Buy store order.
 
[quote name='dgwillia006']Instore stops on Saturday i believe, Online tends to vary.

[/QUOTE]

Thanks. Now I know.
 
I bit on this. I figure even after I take my time to beat this I can turn around and sell it and at least break even if not make a few bucks.

Thanks OP and CAG.
 
[quote name='dgwillia006']

Also, anyone know if BB would PM an Online Price mistake instore?[/QUOTE]

I'm going to bring the screen cap that scottc320 posted with me and try to get a pm or something. Not expecting to get it but it's worth a shot.
 
Could somebody please tell me the nearest store to 77034 doing a midnight release? The link on the 1st page isnt working for me.

Thanks

So to anyone who has went to a midnight opening where BB gave out codes. Did they have enough for everyone?

Not sure if i should show up at around 11pm and be bored in the parking lot for an hour, or just pop up right before 12. (Like i usually do at Gamestop)
 
[quote name='SonyFanboy#1']Sorry if i missed this,but can we still get the extra Arson Case DLC if our store isn't having a midnight launch?[/QUOTE]

I would like to know this as well

The game comes out tomorrow (in approx 24 hours from the time of posting this) so BBY hasn't sold these yet

They said they have 16 codes per store. That's it. I'd show up right before 12. Not worth staying for an hour at 11 Pm in a parking lot.

Nah, it's a pre-order bonus. You might be able to still pre-order online and do in-store pickup, though.

Oh cool...I just checked BB online site and I can still get the 15GC....but what about the 500points? It doesn't mention it anywhere :/
 
I think a lot of people are going to be disappointed when they don't get their RZ points. There's no mention of it anymore on BB's site.

People need to stop posting false information. The deal is alive and is still mentioned in the same place it's always been...the Rewards Zone site. The deal expires 5/21.
