Forgot to mention I am also building rewards points at this place, got my first perk today, half price Home Alone 2 SNES, paid $1.99. Also picked up this CIB Evander Holyfield.

Today's grabs. Not huge steals but you can't beat the store rewards

It is a points system, all of your purchases give you a certain amount. I currently have 4.5 points which means I have 1/2 off anything up to $4.50 in store credit. So yeah if something cost $4.50 right now they'd offer to let me use my points and it would turn to a $2.25 purchase.

Neat! Is there a limit as to how many points you can earn?

This is a very cool store. I wish more were like this.

Bull Moose carries retro games? I'll have to stop by one next time I see one.

The way the store looks and how the point system works it's almost exactly like Zia Records a chain we have here in Arizona.

Got these three 100% free today.....paid for in store credit I've accumulated....plus I acquired more points for this purchase. (basically they paid me $.80 to take these)
At this point I'm up to 1/2 off any item valued up to $12.00. There was tons of new stuff since my last visit.

Is there a max for how much you get off? That'd be cool to get it up into the hundreds.

I don't think there is a limit to how high it can go. After tonight I am at half off any item at $17.00 so I'm starting to get up there
My normal Xbox One controller suffers thumbstick drift so I needed this....man is this controller nice





Several common SNES CIB's appeared since yesterday (Clue, Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune)
But this one new Game Boy game caught my eye and was cheap enough to take home
Nice deal....(also paid in store credit so "free")
Mint box, opened it up and it was truly complete, I'd have paid $.97 just for the plastic dust case lol



This thread is now 30 days old....I've gotten some pretty good deals in this stretch!

I really though that people were going to be more excited that I found a legit complete Game Boy game at a retail store in 2016 just sitting on a shelf for me to grab, let alone that it only was priced at $0.97

Very nice controller!

This store seems to be a gold mine! Do those stickers come off easy?

Absolutely residue free. I don't even consider them stickers, they are like a more advanced label....like they are designed to peel off as easily as they peel on. Taking them off is effortless. Whatever they are it is one more thing that makes this store awesome. Usually when i buy retro games the first thing I do is give them a heavy cleaning, get the damn price tag residue off, etc....but I haven't felt the need to do that with the purchases from this store.

Minor pickups today videogame wise but I used store credit to make the SNES and 7" records 1/2 off.
Championship Pool is Assembled in Mexico release but you cant complain about $.49 SNES games.

I can't be contained! Spent up the last of my holiday money today.....came back with another fantastic steal videogames wise. Store credit made Conker $7.49. I still somehow have 11 points left to use so I'll have to look for another $10.97 item soon...

Nice picks up!

This store is truly amazing. I wonder who keeps trading this stuff in so cheap. These prices are insane!

Another sub $1 N64 game....I had gotten F1 World Gran Prix for the same price last week but apparently forgot to post
The two on the right are from another local store, Sonic 2 is an upgrade to my old copy and I've actually been hoping to
find Winning Run locally for years, this copy was nice and mint.

Ok so that last post was a joke compared to this one. I got home and realized I passed up a major gem.
I remember seeing the intro to Cannon Fodder years ago on Youtube and being blown away that it was possibly running on the GBC.
Looked it up on eBay and was pleased to see it is not very common. It looks even better on an actual GBC
I took my old CIB copy of Sonic 2 along with a spare copy of The Goonies on DVD and traded them in for these.
I used rewards points to get 1/2 off Cannon Fodder. In the end I spent two quarters, a dime, and one penny. 61 cents!

Whoa, they must use the same point of sales system that Dimple Records here in Sacramento has. The stickers and receipt are identical!

I was present for this particular trade in, the guy had about 20 SNES games laid out and I thought he sold them all
When I got to the counter though after he left it was more like 8 though, he kept the better ones, most of them I had but I picked up this.
