CoD 4 for $32.50
Corncobtacular 29 comments


I'm not sure how many people know about the Circuit City special right now since I was out of town all weekend. Basically they are giving away Call of Duty 3 for free when you purchase Call of Duty 4. It's in their Sunday ad that you pick up when you walk into the store. Well this is what happened to me:

I slip out of work for a minute to walk to the Circuit City next to my work. I grab the last CoD 3 and have to ask a guy to grab a CoD 4 form the back (both 360 versions as i think that is what the deal applies to). When the lady at the register rings them up the FREE game is applied to the CoD 4 SKU and i pay a total of $32.50 for both games

The only thing i noticed was that she rang up the CoD 3 game FIRST. Not sure if this had anything to do with it, but i did notice it. I'll update the post with pics tonight when i get home if needed.

Now get your ass to Circuit City and take advantage of this deal they don't even know they are offering!

Kudos to you Cobtacular.

Totally hope I have some fat chick ringing me up. Time to work that Kryptinite Magic on her. Fat girls need love too....just not from me.
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
$32.50 for BOTH games or $32.50 x2 = $65?
Corncobtacular's Destructoid Blog
$32.50 for both games ($32.50 x 1 = $32.50)

Not sure what kind of computer glitch happened, but i'm super happy
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
He is right?




How much can you get for CoD3 trade in at GameStop?

@Kryptinite

Fat white women love black guys. =p

It's been scientifically proven.
king3vbo's Destructoid Blog
Fat white women do love their black dudes

Also, I think you got really lucky
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
Do you guys not look at that ad I just posted in the comments? haha
Corncobtacular's Destructoid Blog
The ad you posted in the comments says that when you buy CoD4 (59.99) you get CoD3 for free. I tried to do that but what happened is they charged me for CoD3 (29.99) and gave me CoD4.

So they definitely screwed up
BluDesign's Destructoid Blog
No, we see the ad. I think it was just a lucky glitch on his part that COD4 rang up as the free game.
Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
Blindside, for fucks sake man he got COD4 for the price of COD3, therefore it was only 35 bucks or whatever.

If the dumb fat chick working there looked at the game correctly he would've gotten charged full price, not 35 bucks.
MusashiX2's Destructoid Blog
i would try this, but i'm sure none of us will be so lucky. unless you have a friend that works at CC who will do this for you, it'll probably have only happened in this one case. if a bunch of people go out and do the same thing, then i may try and bite. so if anybody else succeeds, tell us!
Eschatos's Destructoid Blog
Does this apply for the PC version also?
BlindsideDork's Destructoid Blog
Monkey I am sick! Shut up! fooooo
Clockwork's Destructoid Blog
You just had a dumb clerk. Lucky. I had the same thing happen to me with Guitar Hero 3. Free guitar anyone?
Knives's Destructoid Blog

@tehArtist

I know yet I don't fucking understand it. I'll let a big girl give me head but that's where the fun stops.
Kryptinite's Destructoid Blog
Wait...what's this post about again? Oh yeah..I hope I get COD4 for the cheap today.

@ Kryptonite

You should go hoggin' at least once in your life. It makes you a stronger person and keeps you focused on keeping a long term g/f slim.
Corncobtacular's Destructoid Blog
Hogging works even better if you have a winner for "total poundage" over an entire weekend
BS3 Owner's Destructoid Blog
@ corncobtacular

Kind of like a bass fishing tourney...
The person with the biggest catch wins!
Kryptinite's Destructoid Blog
LOL...Hogging? That's fucked up on so many levels it's hilarious. I've never heard of this phenomenon.
Jerkbutt47's Destructoid Blog
lolzor at everyones comments
vexed alex's Destructoid Blog
Umm, can you please scan Call of Duty 3 first?

Uh, no I'm...

I have OCD.

What is that? Uh, it's very complicated.

Please, just ring up that one first. If you don't I'll...go crazy. Like if I've spent more than I..wanted..to.
GuitarAtomik's Destructoid Blog
Enough with the Chubby Chasin"! Can anyone else confirm that this works?
Snaileb 's Destructoid Blog
Hoggin is disgusting. That link that guitar put up is equally gross.

ew...
