Thus far this has been the only store with such an ad reported, but the effects of this could be very far-reaching. Imagine just walking into a Best Buy with your GameStop weekly ad and utilizing the deal. Originally, this was spotted over at the forums of Cheap Ass Gamer, and there were other reports of people attempting to find out if such a deal was happening in their area. I've made some calls to Best Buy's in the Maryland area, and while only one store had heard of the this new strategy, none of them were actually practicing it.
Could this be a deal-breaker for GameStop faithful?
Note: Though this was touched upon and detailed in a previous article here at Aggrogamer, this was an example of the in-store ad for the perusal of our readers.
