Bethesda has something strange going on with retailer Kmart. With a $5 purchase of the Fallout coaster set seen above, you will get a $15 Video Game Savings coupon that will be redeemable the week of the Fallout: New Vegas release. It's like a strangely worded pre-order offer with bonus gift. Who cares how it goes down, though. It's Fallout coasters!
Kmart's blog says that the quantities are limited and there is a one-per-customer limit.
The offer kicks off on August 8th, so if you're down with Fallout or nifty drink coasters, you should get on it.

I want one of these now!
Yeah, for five bucks these are awesome. Gonna roll down the street to Kmart as soon as I am not hungover.
Shit
K-Mart, consider this the beginning of a new friendship.
LK: Here's a list of stores in your area: http://www.insiderpages.com/store_finder/results/kmart/SanFrancisco/CA
glitznglam-style: Thanks! If you're on Twitter, you should give us a follow at http://kmartgamer.com
John B: Definitely...we had a great one for "Blur."
Budogenkai: Here's looking at you, kid
I wonder if they'll also apply this deal towards the CE
The coasters are in the pre-order box (They guy I spoke to at KMart did not know this).
The coasters are actually paper/cardboard - like pub coasters.
The $15 is off any game purchase at KMart in between 10/19 and 10/30.
Seriously, KMart? You made me go to this POS junk store to get these!
Why would you give such an amazing, exclusive pre-order to a crap company like Kmart?
I called THREE different stores, who all committed to having zero knowledge of Pre-order coasters, let alone the New Vegas title. God.
