Speaking of, here's a situation that really ticks me off, sales related... shopping at Gamestop has become so unbearable that I really do just buy everything from amazon now. This is what buying something at GS is like:
PC strolls into Gamestop.
"Hey are you looking for anything in particular today?"
"No, thanks! I'm just browsing."
"OK well here's a flyer. We're offering special trade-in value toward pre-orders of x, y, and z. We've also got deals on a and b, just so you know."
2 minutes later.
"You sure there's nothing you're looking for?"
"Yeah, I'm good. Just looking at games."
"Well, what are you playing now?"
"Uh... nothing. That's why I'm looking at games."
"LOL HAHA LOL well we have used copies of x around and a pre-order of x available if you're interested."
2 minutes later, PC arrives at checkout with his $15 pre-owned game.
"Hey will this be all?"
"Yup."
"Do you have our powerup card? Only $15.99 if you subscribe today and you'll get our propoganda magazine as well as instant savings on all pre-owned games."
"No thanks, not today."
"Alright well are you looking to preorder anything?"
"No thanks (which is why I never buy games until they're like $15 but w/e)."
"Are you interested in our scratch protection? It's only $1.99."
"Yeah, no thanks. I'm good."
"Alright then your total is.... hey do me a favor and please call this number and answer our survey alright?"
