I actually bought games off amazon that were marked as 30 dollars despite gamestop still selling it for 59.99
I ended up getting a better trade in value and made some money doing this but Gamestop actually uses your ID to track returns you've made so it's not like you can buy 20 copies of the same game off amazon and trade them in at different gamestops.

Don't tell me you actually used Ninjhax.
then go to bestbuys gamer club which is only like 35 dollars?
you get a 20% discount either way and rebates.
>paying full price for a game at gamestop and not taking advantage of 20% discounts
some lockjaw elf eceleb gaymer gurl
kek
she was the voice actor for victoria in fallout boy
why would i go to bestbuys gaymer club when i can work for walmart or target extremely part time (literally a day a week, if that, for four-six hours a day) and get a 15% discount off everything + pricematching + inhouse app savings?
lmfao you kids paying for "discounts" are stupid.
This was when the exploit was first found.
I bought CN and OoT+save dongle just in case.
Glad I did. Prior to the OoT reprint, both were outrageously priced.
CN still is as we speak but will die down thanks to fucking gamestop reprints.
so a literal who. nobody gives a shit about some fucking eceleb, good god. tell that gamestop manager to eat a dick.

We're always having a good giggle at those 20-something fatties coming to order Pokemon.
>got Gengar and Diancie event poke cards
>got like 10 of each
>never claimed one
>still have the cards
I remember they tried to bullshit me on pre-ordering to get the event pokes and called them out on their bullshit. I threatened to e-mail and call corporate about the pre-order only bullshit so they instantly scrambled and didnt want that heat on their location from corporate so they just gave me 10 of each and told me no trabble next time.
considering i get $12/hr for six hours once a week, plus 15% discount on shitty video games + price matching...my time is worth quite a bit apparently.
$72 roughly a week and since i don't buy vidya frequently (games just aren't worth buying at $60 these days, since games are shit tier. fuck cock of dooty and the other AAA shit, and indies are all the same copypast ebullshit)
lol
>$72 a week
That's fucking nothing.
How do you even survive with that little income?
meanwhile I'm on unemployment for being fired without reason making $200 weekly.

What's wrong with Ninjhax?
i don't JUST work at walmart dude. it's impossible to have internet, food, and a place to stay on $72/week. I was saying that instead of paying money to get a 20% discount, I ultimately get anywhere from 15 to 30% discount AND GET PAID FOR IT for little work that is hardly time consuming (walmart).
I am a teacher and also work at walmart. total income is $40k/year. play vidya in my spare time.
unemployment, just like employment, is a cycle. you're making roughyl minimum wage, it's alright. soon you'll break out of minwage and land a good job that pays at least $15/hr or ~40k salary. good luck brother.
Do your students throw shit at you every time they see you?
not him but I live off of 38 bucks a week. I'm not dead broke or desperate, I have a bunch of savings but I just make that money back anyways with drawing commissions.
but only because i live in a tinyhouse, if you have to pay rent you need at least $600 a month minimum
>instant ramen
fuck that shit. get store brand canned raviolis.
>b-but the 23.3333333% medium discount
He was just being nice because he probably thought you were autistic.
clean up? hahaha I never do the cleaning. always get coworkers to do my job for me. I am solely a backroom/electronisc employee. I do not cleaning, i rarely check people out, and I almost never smile. fuck that "store culture" BS haha, I work one day a week fuck outta here.
if you're polite to me, I'm polite to you. I don't have a stick up my ass for none reason.
groceries for a month for a single person are really cheap honestly. buy a salad, cereal, milk, pasta, rice, beans, and spaghetti sauce. maybe even frozen vegetables + el monterrey burritos. all together less than $50USD.

Waiting for the info on the 10th before I preorder Pokemon because while I'm leaning towards moon, I want to know the cover mons before I bother since it could be a turd.
fuck ravioli, nigger. Also 4x the price.
You should take a signed photo of yourself and put it next to hers.
no my students are well-behaved for the most part. they get rowdy, but what do you expect from teenagers? lol. it's not a big deal. the pay isn't the greatest, but i don't care about great pay. enough to pay bills + have an emergency fund is all I need.
canned ravioli is fucking disgusting, but you do you. if you can, I suggest you make your own ravioli, its cheaper and longer lasting. plus you can do your own tricks for flavor.
I'm not an eceleb, but I do have a picture of myself holding a cat.
>since it could be a turd.
its a fucking pokemon game.
be honest with me: you, as a person who buys pokemon games...how are any of them any different from each other?
>expecting that much for horsehshit
Put your helmet back on and ask mommy for more money pleb
Even 600 bucks is not enough for most people if you have to pay rent. At least in Yurop.
Seriously, the price for rent and housing in general has gotten absurdly expensive over the last ten years. I know so many people over the age of 20 that still live with their parents because they simply can't afford anything else.
It's ridiculous.
Ay, newfag.
I feel you. I really hope they learned from the shitshow that was gen VI.

They aren't different by much. I don't consider them my favorite games, but I like bringing along my original party throughout the series. In all likelyhood, yes it will be a turd. But I'll still buy it like the shitter I am, and I'd rather have the prettier one.
The kitty is cute.
ramen sucks
If you guys have access to a pot and a strainer, get some generic mac n cheese, a can of peas and some tuna, you can make a pretty delicious platter that has a good amount of nutrients. they're big servings so you can spread out the leftovers over a few days. mix in hotdogs slices, carrots, or corn sometimes to keep things fresh so you don't get sick of it
Eh I hope so too. I liked the models but the game needed some challenge and reason other than the shiny charm to collect shit.

Hey amazonshill
Oh, and tuna is crazy cheap almost all the time. It's easy to get sick of em but tuna sandwiches are filling and great for protein.
chicken is the best with mac n cheese, but where I live tuna is almost always cheaper. I always check if any chicken is on sale though.
I haven't actually cooked with potatoes at all, I've just mixed eggs and weenies sometimes.
It's good man, try it sometime.
