The Holiday Rush Engulfs Retailers

The Holiday Rush Engulfs Retailers

Laptop Battery Thanksigiving Day may be over, but it's now officially the start of the Holiday Season with the first "big" day in holiday shopping nationwide.

Today, several game stores such as Toys R Us, GameStop, and EB opened around 5 AM to help control the usually unpredictable crowds hoping to get their X-mas shopping done early.

Working at a FuncoLand myself, I've noticed several key rebates and deals regarding the Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance that you should be wary of:

  • WalMart has been selling GameCube w/ Zelda Bonus Disc bundles for $79.44 today, but most nationwide offers for the deal were only available from 6 - 11 AM for early-birds.

  • All GameStop and FuncoLand stores are having a Buy 2 Used Games, Get 1 Free sale as well. The free game must be equal or lesser value from the cheapest came of the original two. This offer is expected to last till December 7th.

  • Also related to GameStop and FuncoLand retailers, several locations are also including incentives such as free t-shirts or DVDs for specific games like Tony Hawk's Underground or True Crime: Streets of LA. On the Nintendo side, some stores are giving away a free Nintendo t-shirt and hat with the purchase of a Game Boy Advance SP.

  • GameStop and FuncoLand consumers also received $10 Giftcards with the purchase of Mario Kart: Double Dash today only from 6 AM - 11 AM.

    Other than the "Buy 2 Get 1 GameStop Special," most of the specials may have already expired, but being that there's still plenty of time before X-mas; there may be plenty more deals to be discovered.

    GCA will keep you updated on how to save more money during this hectic shopping season.

    According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
