I decided to bite on the Legendary from Walart, had a $100 giftcard lying around..so used that..only had to pay $58 balance, plus they got the .97cent release date delivery to house and you get a $20 giftcard.

So basically a $150 deal for $40..not bad

That's tight that Best Buy is doing the $20 gift card for game AND console bundle.

I guess I'll go there and see if I can pre-order the console bundle in-store. If not, I'll wait until the last minute to pre-order online and HOPE they have the in-store pickup option available.

As it stands, I think I already got the 500 bonus points ($10 certificate), I'll be getting a $20 gift card for the Legendary Edition, and hopefully a second $20 gift card for the Limited Edition console, as well as tons of bonus points for putting most of it on my Best Buy MasterCard and being a Premier Silver member.

$2,500

I very seriously doubt we spend that much in there (the wife and I do spend a lot though), but we have the Best Buy RewardZone MasterCard which we use for almost all of our everyday purchases, and that goes towards becoming a Premier Silver member, so it only takes a couple months to get it.

It's awesome though because when you put a Best Buy purchase on the MasterCard, as a Premier Silver member, you get like triple points or something. It seems like we get at least $10 to $15 in Rewards certificates every month.
