Appears we lost the old one, seeing as time is money I thought we should get this going again ASAP.
If the original is found we'll just merge.
Anyway, please keep the bargains rolling.

I guess I'll start us off with a reminder that this Saturday (21/11), it is 10% off storewide at Big W for all Woolworths employees.
Assassins Creed 2 is $78. So on Sat it will be about $70.20. Pretty dam good for a new release.

No idea really if this is really a bargain but Harvey Norman @ my store is doing xbox arcades for $234. Limited stock.
Also have bundles going for wii/ds/xbox that are NOT in the catalog. I dont remember the finer details but chances are they wouldn't really be considered a bargain by the thrifty bargain gamer.
*Edit*
329 - DSi + charging dock + more brain training + 2 years ext. warranty = $329
Dont remember the rest though

Not sure Spanca, it doesn't say it just shows Ps3 cases. You would probably need to go in to find out...
EDIT: It's for three days 20-22 Nov.

Halo 3 is $29 on Game's website.
Good price. If I wasn't a bit over fps I would pick this up.

Also their standard "money back guarantee through to January" has started already, so grab a couple of games, play them for the next 6 weeks and then return them and pick up some new year bargains.

I walked in today and had a quick look. From what I could tell, most "older" games have been dropped by half price (which is still not that great given that some of their original prices were $110/$120). Alot of new release titles are $20 off, such as Borderlands and Batman: Arkham Asylum, which still puts them at $80 and $100.
PS: ^^that wasnt really a bargain was it, more of an anti-bargain, my apologies.
