    Just went down to Creekside. Only looked at movies, but the "deals" were nothing special. Sure, 30% off new releases - but I'm not keen on paying even 30% off when 1 movie is $15-$30.

    Saw nothing at more than 30%.

    I went out on day 1. Most good stuff was already gone (at 530) and the 30% was alright, but on a new game of $70.00 it is still cheaper to wait and buy pre-owned.

    The line was insane probably 20/30 people deep.

    Who buys DVDs, or much less rents them haha. Download everything in HD then play it off my server on my PS3. It is a beautiful thing.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Just went there too cause its closeby. Total gongshow, but most was already picked clean. Gaming isle is crap, saw a couple who needed a shopping cart for their games.

    Oh and my buddy picked up a PS3 slim for $210 yesterday at horizon. Thats a good deal
