PS3 w/BB coupon

Hey guys,
looks like I'm going to go ahead and grab one these here PS3's. I will be picking it up at my local Best Buy, they have a few left. I want to try and save some $$$ and wanted to know if I can use one of the coupons I get from myrewardzone. I have a 12% off coupon but will they accept it. Coupon doesn't say anything regarding PS3, but does say not valid for Blu Ray players and HD DVD players.
Does anyone have any links where I can print another BB coupon just in case.

Thanks, I can't wait.

Rick

Those coupons never include game systems, including the coupons we received for this weekend. There is a coupon specifically for games (up to 3), and I think you can use the other 2 coupons for game accessories.

Best Buy are nazis when it comes to this stuff. Definitely wont be able to use it. I tried using rewards zone along with some other deals when I bought my TV and they said no...but they did negotiate the price of the TV so that was good.

The best bet for you is
1) amazon has a free BluRay remote control and a free disc. No tax and Free Shipping... is a pretty good savings. So $500.00 out the door.

2) Target has 10% off. coupon TGTAFLAE . But then you have to pay $8.00 for shipping and tax. Buying from target means you can get their 3 year warranty for $30.00, if you are worried about it.

So the Walmart free remote deal is good for in-store purchases, not just online?

theres no free remote offer at walmart. heres what i meant:

PS3 + Remote (500+25=525$)
Plus Tax = 30$
Total = 555$
(10% walmart employee discount for 555$ is around 55$)
TOTAL PRICE 555$ - 55$ = 500$
not to mention u can submit your cupon for the 5 free BD movies in the mail.
not a bad deal after all

It wasn't what you were referring to apparently, but there is indeed a free remote offer at walmart.com -- They're selling the PS3 with the Blu Ray remote for $499.82: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/produ...uct_id=5303673

I just wasn't sure if they were offering the deal in-store as well.

no offense bud, but they are probably gone by now since you didnt pick them before....I think BB gets PS3s on a weekly shipment though or every two weeks good luck.

this is exactly what I was looking for, does Target offer the 3yr warranty for store purchase or only for online ones?

is this 3yr warranty for replacement like BB or they will go ahead and send the defective unit to be fixed?

Well, to my surprise, my local Best Buy gave me a "price match" on the Wal-Mart free remote deal -- I printed out the page from the Wal-Mart website and brought it to customer service at Best Buy and paid $499 for the console and the remote.

The coupon also states what is eligible for the discount, so if game systems are not listed you are probably out of luck. The specifically excluded HD DVD and Blu-ray because an argument could very reasonably be made that those are both types of DVD players.
