I don't want any of the games.. i'm just trying to get enough store credit for a PS3, if that matters..

^ just return the two games that u paid for with the gift receipt, if u try to return all of them the free game will have no value once they scan it. thenlater u can return the free game without any receipt or jus keep it.

this was a

deal btw....jus noticed i came out wit almost $600 worth ofgames and spent only $96

 

[jigsta05]

they didnt let me return two of the games i bought w/o receipt.. what should i try next?

 

[djaward]

I know theres peeps that work at bestbuy on here. I WONDER IF THEY've TOLD THEIR MANAGERS ABOUT THIS SCAM?? I know a few pages back, there were some dudesgettin all salty because some niketalker figured out how to beat the system.. BECAREFUL.

I tried buying 2 30 games and one 60 and the 60 dollar one was always charged. SO I ended up with two $30 games(GTA4 and MGS4) I also got NBA 2K10. The lasttime I went I got store credit. But the cashier at CS was just helping out Customer Service cause there was a long line. After she rang me up I went two getthe three games and she was at the cashier registers. So I had to slip one off on the side and bought two with no free one so she wouldn't catch on. I haveto go to another one and try again. But so far so good.

1. take them to walmart return for store credit
2. then buy Amex gift cards it will cost you $5
3. take the cards back to best buy and get 3 more games
4. take back the original 3 games you will end up with spending $5 for a $60 game \

only works 1 time because walmart only gives you 3 recepless returns a month and over $60 requires 2 returns.

unless you get someone else to repeat the cycle for you my girl did for me i ended up coming up 2 $60 games for $10

BTW im in retail and the ID thing is only for a national survey on returns it cant come back to bite you unless you constantly return things i mean like + 5 ormore times per month...

Idk the shift changes but I asked my cousin that works there and she said she starts at 5 so u can try after 5 I'm pretty sure everyone has a differentschedule.

i know right
reactions would be like "oh...

"

i bet some employs already know what some people are doing trying to get that extra $60

 

[spaghetti89]

I was wondering for anybody that knows can you use the same receipt more than once?? Like use it to return the games and then go back and use the same receiptagain but different games(same title of the games you bought)???

The clerks I came across just make it short/sweet and say, "Nope!" with a smile following.


That definitely made it a lot easier, a lot less face time, and a lot less awkward.

i went to best buy for the last time today at a different time and this guy working there rejected me. Then as I was walking away I heard him talk to aco-worker and say "that's the scam I was talking about". Are you serious bro? you gunna be a penis for no reason.

no i don't think so. the first thing they scan when u go to make a return is the receipt and i believe it shows up in the system if the gamehas been returned.

Take the 3 to the register and just remind/inform them there's a B2G1F sale all week that ends tomorrow.


They'll look it up in their database. Or when they ring up all 3, a notification will pop up on-screen.

 

[crazy dav0]

just went back to spot in jersey and the girl takes back my 4 games on one receipt so i was good ... i go get 6 games i want ... and of course shorty calls themanager and they rearrange it so that they highest priced games get charged

they did however do 2 separate transactions and gave me 1 of the free games on the side b/c they couldn't figure out the system ... so i can def. returnthose for store credit ... but now i have 2 separate transactins ...

this is getting more difficult ... oh well ... so thas now 12 free games ... i want to get 23 more games ... i think i'm running out of time

 

[ezln1]

I want to hit up the same BB's i;ve gone too, but I dont want to run into the same cashiers I've dealt with in the morning....gonna have to wait
