"Game or Eletronics Boutique?"

Both say they have the lowest prices around, both have good games.Which do you shop at?

Oops, my bad. They are also changing points given in the rewards scheme - can't remember the exact details.

I was going by the old system.

Well I've just checked my points balance and I have 4144 points, so thats £10.

Still, not a gigantic saving. But 10 pound no less.

Most I've ever had was a voucher for £24! :-)

That's pretty good! My highest was £14, I had preordered and bought both Pomkemon G & S for me and my friend, and they gave you £5 extra when you bought both.

They never do that anymore. Ah well.

SR helllo !

I think that Game and EB merging is bad news where I live they have a Game and EB store, they used to keep each other in check in terms of price, but now they can charge more because they are not in competion. A bit like Easyjet and Go.

I shop at SR.

I haven't bought much anywhere in the last couple of months, except SSBM and Rez.

I buy from whoever sells cheapest.

It depends what I'm buying.

PC games I'm not too fussed about, because most places have almost identical pricing. You can even get some PC games from Game for a few quid less than SR.

Console games I usually buy from SR, because they're cheaper and they usually get the games to you on release day.

However, there are places on the net even cheaper than SR, although they don't always get stuff to you on release. Whether I buy from them or not depends on whether I really want the game on release day.

For example, one online store (who I won't name here) has GT Concept for £5 less than SR with free P&P, but they don't get stuff to you on release day. As I have GT3, I'm not worried about when I get it, so I ordered it from the other company.

I stay loyal to SR wherever possible, but you have to be sensible about these things!
