Only people that are going to buy PS4 would have a chance to be jealous. Grats on finding a lower price I suppose.


Not sure why you would even post something like that if you didnt care....

 

Anyways @OP - lucky bastard, getting a PS4 pre-ordered at almost the same price as a WiiU *_*!



Yea, I probably shouldn't have posted in thread. The be jealous part is what made me post. If it didn't have that in op then I would have ignored the thread. I do applaud smart shoppers though that find the best deal.

Have some time to kill? Read my shitty games blog. http://www.pixlbit.com/blogs/586/gigantor21

Not sure if you saw my edit to my first response to you. The be jealous is in response to the good deal. Not that it's the ps4. I mean, if you think about a $300 item after tax (if you live in Illinois) is about $330. I think everyone can appreciate that I got a brand new system that MSRP is 399 for around the same price most get an item for MSRP at 299.

Oh..just re-read the OP you got a discount from your store you work at? Dayum.

The store I worked at didnt apply discounts to gaming hardware because they didnt want to affect consumer demand or so they said back then (bastards >.>).

I worked at Toys R Us at one point... the only thing they didn't apply discounts to was game systems. Target gives it to you for everything.... As for consumer demand... your store is stupid because even though you are an employee you are still a consumer demanding a product.

Okay, I sort of misinterpreted the be jealous part. I knew it was mainly about getting a good deal. My first post was just me being dick and trying to make it into something more. Grats on the good deal.

Yep they had stupid policies like the "If you worked at one store you cant work at another or again if you re-apply for whatever reason you may of quit before).

It was "Fry's Electronics" - the same store that jumbled up the WiiU-Basic and added some stuff to it to sell their own "exclusive" SKU of the Wii-U which was higher priced than it should and of what it had.

 

Anyways what games did you pre-order?

Games... BWAHAHAHA! I was so excited about the system I didn't think about the games. Lets see if I can order those online and get free shipping and 0 tax.



So I bougth it for free, How can I be jealous :)

Knack, The Order 1886, Killzone, Infamous.

For some reason it charged me tax on those though. That came out to be $215. So 4 games and a Ps4 for $557



Yep, Target's employee discount/Redcard combo is awesome. I can't get it for that cheap though, 'cause my state charges sales tax. :/



Jealous? Not really, the PS4 is a deal even without a discount. :D
