Okay, that Target deal is very misleading. I just went through a very convoluted process that ended with me getting the game and the system (GOW, 350gb) with everything for around $350. I'm gonna sell the GOW title immediately. First of all, y'all should read the comments on that slick deals site referring to this promotion. In store, the cartwheel does work, but the free game is supposedly for Assasin's Creed or some bullshyt. YMMV on that. People had to do some real social engineering or hope the folks in the store didn't really know about the promotion to get everything with no fuss. I then read that people were doing it online and getting the game along with the applied discount to the console, so I went that route and did the in store pick up (For the console. NBA 2K16 was to be shipped separately). I go in and get the console and ask about the price, and they tell me it's $310.54 which sounds about right when you include taxes. But then I go to find that they charged me $364.30 or something like that. That was yesterday.
Today, I noticed the price still hadn't changed, and so I called Target's online dept directly to ask them why. The first guy was no help at all, and didn't even seem to understand what I was talking about. The second guy did, and broke it down for me. For those that try to do this online: The promotion supposedly applies the discount price to the console itself, which for me ended up being $293.65. HOWEVER. For some reason, they charge you for the game when it ships, which is why it came out to that higher total. Which is still
because if the game is listed as a FREE GIFT on the promotion, then why am I being charged AT ALL?!
Luckily, the second guy on the phone was cool about the whole thing - I could tell he didn't want to, but he went ahead and refunded me for all the hassle involved. So, in all, I'll only pay the $293.65 with the console and two games whenever 2k ships. That should be sometime today. I got what I wanted, but it was a REAL hassle. Just a warning to anyone still looking to pursue this.
