    PS3 40gb - $319 / 80gb - $399 @ KMart

    if this has been posted ignore it, if you hate the ps3 ignore it, etc. it works though (at least near boston).

    i'm a little outside boston, ma & figured i should try this on the way home from work just for something to do. i've been thinking about getting one for awhile anyway, which i'm not sure why because of the workout my 360 and soon Wii have been getting lately. anyway, i printed that coupon out in color at work and it comes out a little blurry (and the fine print says no copies allowed). i went to the electronics section to make sure they had some in, and asked the kid working at that desk if he'd take the coupon, i didn't really care enough to try and act slick about it. he had me ask customer service who honestly could give two shits about it, it seemed. i told the kid they said "ok" and he rung it up. he even gave me a holiday rebate that they print for you for $15 off early, so i ended up with an 80gb ps3 for $404 after tax. didn't get any games yet.

    if you could care less ignore this thread

    Heh, that's pretty cool. Don't think I'd have the balls to try that.

    I absolutely hated it when I worked at Sears. What do you do there?

    Apparently there is an expansion on this.

    Currently some K-Marts have a "Buy a 50$ gift card, get a 10$ gift card for free." So you buy multiples to get multiple cards, and can end up with the ps3 for 275/350$ after taxes.

    Oh man, like 2 years ago Target had this Coke promotion where you could print a coupon off the net and get a free 20oz coke. I think I printed out like 400(they never changed the code) and gave them to friends and family. I would go to the store and get 5 at a time. Between me and my brother we probably got 150 free cokes in a matter two weeks. They stopped taking the coupons in the town I lived after one of my friends was dared to filled a shopping cart and went to checkout with about 80 coupons. After the 61st coke the cash register started to beep and the manager came down and said they didn't accept the coupons any more due to fraud.
    Shame the kmart in this town closed, or I would give it a try.

    However, if anyone outside Boston tries this and it works... I may give it a shot.

    if you want to check a few pages into that blu-ray.com link up top, most people doing it were in NY or the midwest/FL which made me have my doubts. i haven't heard of anyone else near boston doing it, but people have confirmed all over the place elsewhere. good luck if you try it.
