PS3 for $277 after tax? YES PLEASE!!
Welp, I just walked away from Circuit City with a PS3 for $277.
Here is how.
There is a 20% all Blu-Ray/HD players for Best Buy circulating and some places are taking it and some places aren't. I failed at 3 Best Buys, and corporate but they are giving me a $25 BB Gift certificate. Then I learned that Circuit City will match coupons as well.
Well at first they weren't going to match it and then I was like...how about at least tax? (said that I would rather give them my money rather than BB and also was like...so all the time/gas I wasted to come out here all in vain?). Well we went to the front register and instead of giving me nothing or just tax off he goes...how about $350+tax? I said HELL yeah, knowing I was going to use my Sony Card which gets me $100 off a PS3. So here's what I get:
PS3
retail price $399+tax= $431.99
CC price $349+tax= $377.11
So $377.11
minus $100 for Sony Card
__________________
total $277.11
BB GC -$25

Total $252.11
Then I am headed to BB to use all my gift cards that I have so:
$252.11
$153 in Gift Cards (use on PS3 games/gear
_____________
Grand Total
$99.11 in total Savings and cost (using Drew's method)
BOOYAH

Good games except heavenly sword. Its way too short. Get COD:4 and Rock Band too. Devil May Cry 4 is coming out soon too, I believe.

If you wanted a RPG to sink into, I recommended Oblivion. Its the best PS3 has to offer still.
Uncharted is an amazing game, definitely pick it up.
