View Full Version : Target/Sears/Best Buy/Toys R Us/Kmart Discount and Clearance Video Game Sales

Clearance bins have been totally bought up around here.
For the most part, the majority of clearance games around here have been bought or moved/scattered thru out the store from fickle customers. Target did have a couple copies of Mirror's Edge(PS3) for $9.98. However, I bought 3 copies of the 360 version of that game for that price almost 6 months ago.
The best deals I've noticed lately on new games was Gamestop over the weekend. Even I'm still surprised by the deals. When you combined their cheap prices(after Xmas sale) with the $20 credit you get for trading in select games from a list of over a 100 titles, you could have gotten some really good deals. I got:
Tekken 6(360) $20
Left 4 Dead 2(360) $20
Wet(360) $10
Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City(360) $10
All of those were new and(with the exception of Tekken 6) factory sealed.

It's been awhile but these are the first deals of the decade:
Sears
Mortal Kombat Vs DC Universe(360) $14.97
Target
Bionic Commando(360) $14.98
Lego Indiana Jones(PS3) $13.98
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars(DS) $13.98
Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories(Psp) $13.98
The Conduit(Wii) $7.48
Kmart
X-Blades(360+PS3) $14.98
Metroid Prime 3(Wii) $14.98
Grand Turimso 5: Prologue(PS3) $14.98
I've been waiting to pick up the Conduit for the Wii so I'm glad I held off until now. It was the only copy left, as was MK Vs DC. Atleast Target is starting to get some deals back in. Toys R Us also had some clearance games but they were 99.9% shovelware.

We're seeing a lot lot LOT of PS2 and DS games hitting the Target clearance racks here. Most seem to be stuff I'm not interested in, but I did finally cave and pick up:
Endwar (PSP) $7.48
Don't know if it's any good yet, but I'll try it soon and for that price, it was a steal.

Stopped by Target today. Was hoping for some of the deals people have spotted, but saw none of them. Still, there were some stuff others may have liked.
Advance Wars: Days Of Ruin for about $14 (I think) and Lego Batman for PS3 for the same price were the only ones I memorized. They also had quite a few other games, but nothing I was really looking for and could remember that hasn't been mentioned.

Two quickies for today:
Target
Modern Warfare 2: Hardened Edition(360) $55.98
Mortal Kombat Kollection(PS2) $13.98
Although thats not super low for the MW2 hardened edition, give it a few weeks or up to two months. Last year I got the limited edition of Halo Wars for $19.99 on clearance at Target when the regular version was still selling for $59.99(three months after they released).
Target is always the first to start clearancing limited/special editions so keep your eyes peeled for these deals. And one final piece of advice: ignore what price is on the game. Always double check it at the price scanners littered thru out the store. When I got that Halo Wars special edition it was in the clearance section marked down to $59.99 from it's original $79.99. But I scanned it and $19.99 popped up. Just keep that in mind and the same thing goes for Sears and FYE--they don't always pay attention to store price drops.

There are a TON of DS games, lots of PS2 games, some Wii games, 1 or 2 PS3 games and a couple of PSP games at my Target. Nothing on "great" clearance except:
Big Bang Mini (DS) $4.98
WWE Smackdown/Raw (PS3) $7.48
Guitar Hero On Tour/Decades 2-pack (DS) $20 (was $80)
Most everything else was still in the $15 - $20 range or more.

More Target stuff at a different location:
Demon's Soul(PS3) $41.98
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2(PS2) $13.98
The Club(360) $13.98
I'm going to wait until Demon's Soul gets below $20 before I pick it up. And if MAU2 had been either the 360 or PS3 version I definitely would have picked them up for that price.

Scored at Target last night, Wii Sports Resort bundle with the two Wii Motion plus attachments for $41.98. Not a crazy low price, but surprised to see it discounted at all this soon. Game was the only copy hidden among 100+ copies of some Shawn White snowboarding game, Smarter than a 5th Grader, and Singstar warez.

Should I call my local Target about these drops?
Usually the rule is go don't call, but if your only reason for going to Target is to check on the drops (and it is a decent trip), you're probably safer to call.
Just be sure to ask if they have the games in stock and their prices. That is probably better than asking if a game is on clearance.

I asked that because my local Target NEVER has anything here listed on clearance or it's gone already

Today at Target:
Terminator: Salvation(PS3) $9.98
Marvel Ultimate Alliance(360) $41.98
Prototype(360) $27.98
There was literally a bajillion copies of Terminator Salvation. It must have sold very poorly. MUA2 also didn't sell very well so I'm looking forard to that dropping even lower. A few Target clearance games showed up at my local Goodwill again, mainly Quantum of Solace(360) marked down to $14.98 from it's last clearance price of $20.98.
I scanned Modern Warfare 2: Hardened edition and it's still at $55.98. When it gets lower I'm going to snatch it up. I'm still surprised Batman: Arkham Asylum's special edition hasn't been marked down anywhere yet. Thats uncanny considering how long ago it came out.

Went by Target the other day. I only noted three things:
Sonic & The Black Knight - $20.98
Strategy Guides (Halo 3 ODST, Scribblenauts) - $9.98
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (PS3) - $9.98
If not for my brother already owning TFU for 360, I probably would've picked it up since it is supposed to be fun. I'm hoping for at least one more price drop on Sonic before I pick it up.

Got PS2 GTA Vice City Stories for $4.98 at Target yesterday. Saw a bunch of RE5's for Xbox for $19.98 but passed since the Gold Edition is coming out next month.
Also, picked up Saturday Night Live S1 thru 4 dvd sets for $16.99 each. Technically not a clearance though. Just chain-wide sale.

There really is no point in buying DVDs for full price when they come out. Their value just drops like a lead weight. Didn't those SNL sets originally retail for $70 or something crazy like that?

Yeah, $70 msrp but most places sell them for $50-$60 I think. I rarely buy new dvd's anymore though. Maybe 2 or 3 a year. Everything else I get now is either on clearance or used from the pawn shop or flea markets for $5 each. Just seems crazy to spend $20 on a new release now.

Toys R Us now has a $9.98 and under bin in their electronics section. I saw lots of Wii shovelware, lots of DS games that no one wants and a pretty large selection of PS2 games. I picked up these:
Endwar (PSP) $5.00
Blokus (PSP) $5.00
Spyborgs (Wii) $5.00
Mountain Bike Adrenaline (PS2) $5.00
Had lots more but those were the only ones I found interesting.

Turns out I already got Endwar PSP back from Target for about the same price so I have to go back and return it. I'll return it to a different TRU because the one I was at didn't have Soul Bubbles, so I'll see if I can find it.
Thanks for the tip!

Returned Endwar to my other TRU this morning hoping to get a look at their bargain bin - and they don't have one. I guess this is a store-by-store basis. Too bad.

Some new price drops to add:
Toys R Us
Afro Samurai(PS3+360) $9.98
Alone In The Dark(360) $9.98
Smackdown Vs Raw 2009(Wii) $9.98
Redneck Jamboree(Wii) $9.98---I just wanted to type that title
Art of Fighting Anthology(PS2) $5.00
Street Fighter Anniversary Collection(PS2) $5.00
Target
360 Wired Controller $27.98
Fight Night: Round 4(360) $19.98
Guitar Hero: Metallica(PS2) $7.48
Guitar Hero: Metallica(Wii) $19.98
Halo Wars/Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2/Star Wars: Republic Commando Strategy guides $4.98 each
It looks like Target is back to clearancing an abundance of games again, specifically trying to get rid of extra holiday stock. Toys R US has a clearance bin but the best deals can be found when you just look thru the 360 and PS3 sections. Best Buy hasn't had any worthwhile clearances as of late. As for Sears and Kmart, it all depends on which one is near you. They both still have lots of clearance games but nothing that hasn't already been mentioned or thats dropped in price for some time. I'll keep ya posted.

Was at TRU tonight. PS2 section is pretty small now, probably around 20-25 titles tops. Most of it was priced out at $9.99 - $19.99.
I grabbed:
Pinball Hall of Fame - The Williams Collection - marked @ $9.99 rang up $5.00. They had STACKS of this game there.
Fire Pro Wrestling Returns - last copy (that I saw) - again, marked $9.99 rang up at $5.00
Motocross Mania 3 - Lousy game I hear, but it was only $4.98.
They had other games marked at $9.99 and I'm sure they'll probably ring up at $5.00. Notable games at this price included:
Neo Geo Battle Coliseum
Art of Fighting Anthology
Fatal Fury Battle Archives vol. 1 & 2
Sly Cooper 2 & 3
YMMV

I would wait because it should be getting another drop soon, probably around $99. Also keep in mind that while there may only be one or two on the shelf, they have atleast 2-6 in the back for each system. Or atleast thats how my three local Targets are. But if you are really anxious than paying half retail($125) isn't such a bad idea either.

I saw a ps3 one and was tempted. I am not sure but very tempted to run and get one I have rock band 2, How was the beatle set? Is 125 a good price or should I wait?
Like I said in my previous post: a new drop was about to happen. But even I couldn't have predicted how low it would be.
Beatles Rockband limited edition(PS3) $62.48--75% off normal retail
I was tempted to snag this just to sell it because I could without a doubt make atleast $30-40 selling it for $100 or more. But then theres the fact that the box is big as shit so that ups the shipping cost. Although I passed on it, I might ask next time I go if they have some 360 ones in the back because those will sell much better than the PS3 ones.
Again, I knew since xmas that these would be dropping in price as soon as the holidays were over. According to my contacts at Target, these bundles sold extremely poorly, even during the holidays. And the same thing is true with the Activision bundles(Guitar Hero, Band Hero, DJ Hero, etc). They are all on sale but none have hit as low as the Beatles bundles.

Hmm. I'll have to go check to see if mine did as well.
My Target is getting really, really, REALLY, sparse again. Not sure if it's a cyclical thing or what, but they literally have like 10 games in their clearance area right now. Here's what I saw today:
Skate II (PS3) $9.98
Guitar Hero Greatest Hits (PS3) $9.98
Rock Band (PS2) $4.98
Guitar Hero III (PS2) (Gh packaging) $13.98

The Target I went to last night only had a few budget PC games on clearance. Most of the local Targets don't even do a second round of price drops on clearance games anymore - whatever doesn't sell after a while just goes straight to Goodwill.
The clothing clearances were good for a while, but things are beginning to dry up there as the winter stuff is all but gone. I recently bought two pairs of Levis jeans for just over $11.

Decent reductions at Best Buy. I didn't take the time to make a whole list, but there are 10 or so titles for both the 360 and PS3 that are $19.99 or less, including Brutal Legend and Terminator.
Also, there was a $14.99 and less bin near the front that had some PS3 stuff, Wii stuff and DS games. Nothing stood out, but some decent stuff for $10 - $15.

Target has been redesigning the video game section lately. If your store is part of a redesign then you should check it out ASAP, as most of those deals won't last long(I only saw the price tag for some of those deals because they had already sold out). For everyone else who's stores haven't changed up their video game section yet, you most likely won't be privy to any of these deals. Happy hunting guys.

Got Saint for $8 - Mostly to fill a potentially hard-to-find later gap in the US shmup releases... I have little desire to actually play this one ATM.
Also picked up Valkyrie Profile DS at Best Buy. Thanks for posting that one folks, been waiting for it to get to $20 or below somewhere. :D

It's funny, because I have two Target stores in my area and only ONE of them actually have the games clearanced. The other has the same games ringing at full price. So, it must be a list of markdowns at manager discretion. Anyway, got these today in the one store that actually has clearance items:
Lego Star Wars Trilogy (PS2) $9.98
Lego Indy (PS2) $9.98
Friends (PS2) $2.48 (I figured for that price I'll add it to the collection..haha)
Heavenly Guardian (PS2) $4.98
Rockband 2 (PS2) $9.98

A few PS3 price drops:
Best Buy
God of War 3: Ultimate Edition $99.99
Target
Bayonetta(PS3) $41.98
Dragon Age Origins(PS3) $29.98
I know why GOW3 ultimate edition got lowered but Bayonetta just came out. And Dragon Age Origins has done well sales wise(or atleast the 360 version has) so I don't know why thats getting clearanced already either.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed(PS3) $4.98
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars(DS) $4.98
TMNT: Smash Up(PS2) $9.98

TNA Impact(360) $4.97
Metroid Prime Trilogy(Wii) $13.97
Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2(PS3) $14.97
Stranglehold(360) $1.97
Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds(PS3) $2.97
I went to two different Targets and two different Sears just to see how clearance items were going in outside locations. Sears was a total surprise. They haven't had any good deals for months and today they had good clearance prices for all three current gen systems. I'm sure some of the other games were cheaper than what they were marked as well but I didn't check them. I wish they had a price scanner that customers could use like they do at Target. Speaking of Target, the deals I found were at another redesigned store. The second store had the old layout and thus no super deals.
I would definitely check your local Sears for cheap clearance deals. Also, Best Buy will start to clearance their games soon(specifically special/limited editions) in anticipation of their summer clearance sale. I'll keep yall posted.

That must have happened today. Some of those prices aren't really that reduced, since games like NGS2 was $20 last month, Hot Shots was $3 back then as well. Now Metroid did reduce $7 more from it's original liquidation price ($20), and I see it's somewhat in demand on both Ebay and Amazon...and my "local" Sears has them in stock as well...hmm...
But there are more games that reduced in price as well, but I won't be able to check until Saturday. :(
If anyone can gather a complete list, let us know! :)

I figured more games were reduced. The second copy of NGS2 I found was still marked at $29.98 at a different store. I'm sure there were tons of games there marked $9.98-29.98 that were cheaper than $10 in actuality. Someone needs to make a list....someone who actually works in Sears who can check all the prices and write them down:wink 2:

I haven't posted in forever because my Targets are cleaned out! I mean, almost completely. Looking yesterday I found two things:
Need for Speed Undercover (DS) $9.98
Beatles Rock Band (360) game only $20.98.
That's it! the clearance areas are overrun with acoustic guitars, CD collections from the 70's and 80's, and misc. electronic baubles. My Sears has nothing, my Best Buy has nothing. Ugh.

Online prices usually don't reflect discounts right away.
At least here, Metallica is definitely $15, but only the PS3 version. Same goes for Wet (which unfortunately I did not like :() and Brutal Legend.
In any case, I would love to pick up a copy of Singstar: Queen for $5. I don't think those prices are for PR, though. :(

Wound up going to Target after work this afternoon. A few games that stood out:
PS2:
Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories GH - $7.48
Motorstorm: Arctic Edge - $7.48
G-Force - $4.98
360:
Guitar Hero: Van Halen (game only) - $29.98 (not a great deal, but I haven't seen it mentioned in the thread yet, and since clearance prices are YMMV, it might be cheaper at your local store)
I bought Motorstorm: Arctic Edge (and it was the last copy in the store).
Also, I thought it was worth noting that Hot Topic just put some Sega shirts (Altered Beast, Golden Axe, and Shinobi) and a Frogger shirt on clearance. They're $9.98 or less, depending on your size.

Guitar Hero: Van Halen(360) $14.98

Bayonetta(PS3) $29.99
Gungrave: Overdose(PS2) $4.98
Sears
TNA Impact(360+Wii) $1.97
When the clerk scanned the MUA2 they rang up at $40 each(I snagged two) but I told him I would bitch slap him if he didn't adjust the price to the marked signage. He humblely complied to my request. And that price is about as much as I'd ever pay for SWCWRH because that game truly sucks. I just wish they had 360 copies of it and MUA2 but oh well. I also left that copy of Gungrave there because the first game is one of the worst PS2 games of all time. And I doubt this one would have been any different.
For the MUA2 and the Star Wars game your mileage will vary. I was at four diffferent Targets today and only one of them was rocking those prices. The others had other stuff going on.

What the hell is up with Sears ancient ass inventory computer system? I had to do a project in that store for Sony tvs a few weeks ago and(unlike Best Buy and Target) they couldn't even look up the products by the tv sku numbers. It would be much easier to just look stuff up by title. But I digress. And don't get use to this because I hate number searching: 5891391. Thats for the 360 version because I didn't grab the Wii version.

What's funny is one of my Target's has had a copy of Dissidia on it's clearance shelf for 6 weeks - but it's been the only copy of ANY game on clearance! All the rest has been CD's, DVD players, etc. Well, today I saw that it had been marked down to $7.48 so I went ahead and grabbed it.
I'm not a big FF fan, but I may try this one at that price.

It's really bad. How you play the levels is weird and its a bit hard knowing what to do and how to do it to get the max points.
From the look of it, there are only 7 levels. Within each level (once beaten the first time) you've got alternate modes.... kill em fast, ninja sneaky ect, and I can only assume once you've beaten all modes for level 1, you go to level 2. I've only played into the first or second 'replay' of Level 1.
I like me some bad games, but this one is weird bad so far. Maybe i'll get used to the controls and 'get' whatever it is i'm not, but yea.....

I don't usually mention pc titles since the majority of pc gamers I know purchase their newer games digitally. But you are absolutely correct that Target has had some amazing pc deals over the last year or so. The only one I will mention is what I just saw a few days ago:
Bioshock/Oblivion IV(Pc) 2 game pack $4.98
Theres a 360 version of that combo pack but it would never get down to that price. Pc gamers get the best deals at Target so they should definitely check there once a week.

The Beatles: Rockband(PS3) $7.48
Smackdown Vs. Raw 2010(PS3) $7.48
UFC Undisputed 2009(PS3) $7.48
Bioshock(360) $10.48
Street Fighter IV(PS3) $7.48
Dragon Age Origins(PS3+360) $20.98
For some weird ass reason pretty much all of the older PS3 greatest hits titles have been clearanced to ridiculously low levels. Translation: it's a good time to own a PS3. I was surprised that Dragon Age was of equal price for the PS3 and 360 because the PS3 version of other games were cheaper(Beatles Rockband was $7.48 on the PS3 while the Wii version was still $20.98).
I'm not sure if all of this was because the PS3 games haven't been selling well or if it's because they have lots of back stock but this was the second time in the last two months where the PS3 received the lions share of the discounts. Of course, every single one of those titles will be snatched up next week during black friday so if you have a PS3 and a Target near you make sure to head there this week and let us know if you find any other cheap titles that weren't listed.

Some slight updates to a few games and a couple new ones that I spotted at another Target today:
Target
Resident Evil 5 Gold: Move edition(PS3) $19.98
Bioshock(360) $7.48
Alpha Protocol(PS3) $19.98
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2(PS3) $14.98
Dragon Age Origins(PS3) $14.98
Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles(Wii) $19.98
Punch-Out(Wii) $24.98
The PS3 keeps getting better and better deals. The 360 equivalent games are either sold out or priced higher. Like I said the other day, it's a really good time to pick up some good cheap PS3 titles. And although I haven't listed any Sears, Best Buy or Kmart deals lately, there are some good offers there as well. I'm going to cover a couple different stores in my next update.

Went to Target today. I saw some of the same games as The 12 P, but I did see a few more:
Sin & Punishment 2: $34.98
The Legendary Starfy: $14.98
Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles: $19.98
thought about picking up Starfy and Sin & Punishment, but I didn't really want to spend that much. I'm hoping both drop before Black Friday and I will probably check to see their prices at another Target.

RE5 Gold Edition: $20 (I think)
Fallout 3 GOTY (360): $39.98
Uncharted 2 (PS3) : $19.99
I almost grabbed Uncharted 2, but I'm saving my money for black friday. It was the only copy there, so I'm guessing its an extreme YMMV.

Aliens Vs. Predator(360) $20.98
UFC Undisputed 2009(360) $14.98
The deals are finally starting to roll in for the 360 but they are still noticeably higher than their PS3 counterparts. And I'm really surprised that most of those games made it thru black friday without being snatched up.

Target is now clearancing out their PS2's(similiar to what they did for the Gamecube several years ago). A week ago they were $89.98(even the Toy Story bundle) and today they were $69.98. So if you are one of the few people who doesn't have one already grab them while you can. However, if your store has ten or more than you could also wait for the inevitable price drop to $49.98.

Some decent stuff and some so-so stuff. Target is definitely in clearance mode for not only their special/limited editions but also for certain accessories. I saw a DSi on clearance last week but didn't add it because it was still $115 or so. I'm going to go back on Friday to see if it's been lowered yet.
Every Best Buy I go to has their clearance games in different locations. Some keep them on the shelves with all the regular games but some have dedicated sections just for them. It always helps to take a walk around just to see if they have any good deals. And Kmart has much more than what I listed but most are marked down to only $20 so I didn't list them.

I do like to watch this thread since I used to be a constant contributor, but for the last 6 months or so I haven't found any decent clearance deals at Target, Walmart, or Best Buy. Obviously this thread is the definition of YMMV, but may I go crazy looking at these finds and then going to my Target to find nothing on clearance...

Actually great clearance finds today. All of these at Target.
Sly Cooper Collection - $14.98
Resistance 2 - $9.98
MAG - $14.98
Vanquish - $14.98 (360 and PS3)
There were a few other titles that I didn't really care about, so I don't remember the prices. Here are some of those games: Monopoly Streets (PS3), My Sims (Wii), some Wii shooting game.
Also worth mentioning is that my Target is subsisting Donkey Kong Country Returns for Kirby Epic Yarn as they ran out of them. This means you can get it for $20 if your Target is doing the same.
The only thing I picked up out of this was Sly Cooper for my brother. MAG and Donkey Kong Country Returns tempted me, but I can't justify them with my backlog being the way it is.

My Target(one of them) had Vanquish for the same price but I passed on it. They also had Resistance 2 but it was marked at $14.98. The only one they had that yours probably didn't was the Saints Row double pack(both games in one case) for 360 and it was marked down to $14.98. I'm going to hit a few more in the next couple of days so I'll do an update then.

I spotted Power Gig: Rise of the Six String bundle packs (guitar/game) for $24.99 at Best Buy. That's not bad, even if the game is shit. An actually playable instrument for $25 is a good deal.
To the guys that frequently go to Wal-Mart and Target looking for games. Could you guys check the PC gaming area and see if anything is on closeout for a ridiculous price?
If you see any amazing deals that make you wish you had a gaming PC, then please post them, cause I'm not allergic to physical media, lol.

I don't post PC deals since I don't game on PC but Target in general gets several really good deals all the time because not very many people buy physical copies of PC games(atleast not at Target) anymore so they just sit on shelves until they get clearanced. An example I can give you is the Oblivion/Bioshock PC Double pack. That got clearanced all the way down to $7.48. And GTA: Episodes From Liberty City was $9.98.
PC versions of games usually get clearanced first and they also get additional price reductions faster than console games. Just try your local Targets and also Goodwill because thats where many games end up if they don't sell at their final clearance markdown.

That's because people like 12P go and buy everything good and leave with you 8 copies of the Suite Life with Zach and Cody.
Went to one and found the same thing, but they did have Drawn to Life Collection DS for $14.98. Regardless, got the Flingsmash bundle for $20 as it's on sale.

I waited a while before listing Target clearances since most of the stuff I had seen over the last two weeks have been lowered yet again. I'm personally still looking for a lower priced copy of MAG and Goldeneye limited edition.
I grabbed that copy of Elder Scrolls IV for trade in case someone happens to grab something I need. It appears that Target is trying to get rid of several PS3 greatest hits titles as well as the majority of Move titles along with other slow sellers/overstock. So it's another good time to snag some cheapy PS3 titles but the only things I really care about are the shooters.

And I'm still looking for a copy of Goldeneye limited edition.
As for Toys R Us, I only caught those two deals at one of the two I checked. They had a few other things on clearance but there was very little to write home about.

Those are just a few of the deals going on. Sears has alot more cheap ass games but rather you would care or not depends on your taste. Toys R Us has also done alot of clearancing but their remaining stock is pretty gimpy. But your best bet right now is Target. This is the time of year where they start clearancing 30-50% of their current stock to make room for incoming holiday games. I haven't kept this thread going much lately but I will make sure to keep posing the deals as I see them.

Dragon Age II(360) $8.98
Epic Mickey: Collectors edition(Wii) $20.98
There were some other cheap 3DS games for as low as $4.98 and a nice selction for $11.98 beyond the ones I already mentioned. And of course I didn't list everything but this time I covered around 60-75% of all the good stuff. I even listed a Pc game this time. At $6.04 I almost grabbed Tony Hawk: Ride but I'm really not a fan of skating games and I really didn't want any more big ass peripherals sitting around collecting dust. I could have got it to sell but it's pretty much $15 or cheaper everywhere you can find it.
I was disappointed that the Wii and PS3 versions of UFC: Personal Trainer were on clearance but the 360 version wasn't. I've been waiting to pick that one up. I think this store was clearing more space out for this weekends upcoming black friday sales. Tomorrow and Wednesday I have two more Targets to hit so hopefully I find even more deals.

Target
Castlevania: Lords of Shadow(PS3) $11.98
Splinter Cell: Conviction(360) $4.98
I'm not surprised Duke Nukem is already in the clearance bin. Target has it for $19.99 but they are never going to sell at that price. I might pick one up if it gets to $5 or so. And most of those Best Buy deals can actually be purchased online. So if your store doesn't have it you can have it sent directly to them for store pick up and save on shipping. Overall deals are starting to come in more. Best Buy has cheaper clearance prices for 360 games and Target has cheaper clearance prices for PS3 games.

I found Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation on DS today for $17.48. I have to wonder if these price drops are universally consistent. I've been in one store that had Dream Trigger 3D for $20.98 and the same store I got DQ VI from had it for $14.98 (should have bought it at that price). I've got a store near me that still has Steel Diver for full price it looks like. Well, they were still in the display and not tossed on the clearance racks.

I have to wonder if these price drops are universally consistent.
For Target the answer is definitely no. I have three local Targets and a few non-local ones and they all march to the beat of different drums. For instance, some are selling Yoostar 2 for $20.98 and I got mine for $8.98 at one location. And the same can be said for pretty much all of their games.
The prices I listed for Best Buy are universal for all stores, which is why I said you can also use their website to get those prices online. Walmart is also pretty consistent but you will also find cases where some stores are cheaper than others with their clearances.
It definitely pays to shop around and since I usually don't open my games until after I've had them awhile, when ever I see cheaper prices I just buy the cheaper version and take the more expensive version back. Target and Walmart are good for that because you get 2-3 months to return unopened items. But Best Buy only gives you 30 days(45 if you are a Rewards Zone silver member).
Also, I'm selling brand new strategy guides for Dragon Quest VI for $5 + shipping if you need one.

All 3 Nintendogs+Cats for 3DS are 6.99 each on Best Buy's website. Today only, I believe. They were 7.99 last week (I bought one then and it arrived today.)

They actually had that same sale the entire weekend of black Friday(Thursday-Sunday). I picked one up for myself but I think this time I will pick up multiples in hopes of finally moving the many copies of Metroid: Other M strategy guides I have.

Mass Effect 2(360+PS3) $5 with gamers club coupon
The coupons are available in their gaming magazine. I got a free membership for being a reward zone and gamers club member(both free to join). Bulletstorm has a similiar coupon($15 off) but I'm not sure if it's marked at $20 like the other two are. I left out a bunch of Ds and a few 3DS games from Target's clearances but most of them were pet games. They are starting to put out stuff they pulled right after the holidays and it's been getting cheaper each week. I have a few more things I'm going back for next week.

This Sears had a few decent clearances but the one near me has been very lackluster with deals lately. And all Targets seem to have their own good deals these days. Kmart is hit or miss but the one I went to today had a decent amount of good clearance games for sale. Theres a bunch of stuff I didn't list though, mainly just trying to focus on small updates for now.l

You know, I think I could have survived this entire gen on nothing but Target clearances. They are so plentiful and if you wait long enough you can get things unreasonably cheap. And Fallout: NV must have really sucked because it wasn't even selling at $10. I remember not too long after that game came out it was $20 everywhere. Even at $6 I passed on it. I'm waiting for Assassins Creed 2 and Halo Wars to both get clearances below their current $14 price. And this was another reminder for me to not pick up almost any game for $20. That use to be the rule but now I can actually get them cheaper than $20 if I wait around for Target's clearance sales. I can't wait until they start clearancing Vita titles.
