Default Target: 35% off 360 & PS3 games (22% off Wii games)

Target is running a huge game sale right now. The following titles are $39:

Tony Hawk’s Project 8 >>>>> XBOX 360 / PS3
Need For Speed: CARBON >>>>> XBOX 360 / PS3
Gears Of War >>>> XBOX 360
Marvel Ultimate Alliance >>>> XBOX 360 / PS3


Here's the trick, these games are all out of stock in stores. Request a rain check. Target rain checks are good for the item at the sale price ($39) OR the same percentage off (35%) on a SUBSTITUTE GAME.


I just got:
Madden 07 (PS3) for $38.99
Resistance: Fall of Man for $38.99


These rainchecks are good till 02/13/07, so it's like a 35% off coupon for the next 6 weeks.


Please do not repost this anywhere else.

I'm just raping target for rain checks today and tomorrow. Multiple titles are out of stock, so just ask for the tickets on anything PS3 or 360.

There are other games that are $39, like Zelda for the Wii, but that's

39.00 (SALE) / 50.00 (MSRP) = 22% off.

Try it on a 360 game

39.00 / 60 (MSRP) = 35% off

higher margins.

it's target's policy to allow substitutes ... but if they don't know that, then' you're fuxored.

Store 1:
me: can I get a rain check for Gears of War?
dude: yeap!
dude: *printing*
dude: you can substitute a game for a game and get the 35% off OR pick up Gears of War when it comes back in.
me: sweeeeeeeeeeeet.

Store 2: (I was looking for ridge racer 7)
me: I want rain checks for (4 games here)
me: can I substitue?
kid: ummmm ... uhhhh ... ummm ... no?
me: *asks someone else*
dude 2: not a problem at all.

I think I'm mistaken on the Wii games though.

I bet they'll make you sub out a $50 game with a $50 game.




but that means, any Wii game for $39 ... like the new golf one.
