I am located in Tennessee. last week I picked up Big Daddy and Fracture for $9.96 the usual price. After finding out Breakway was supposed to be a homage to Getaway i decided to pick him up last night. Well when I get to the register it rang up $8.49 tax and all! I am looking at my recept right now and it says it scanned as $7.77. That's over $2 off. When the cashier told me the total I decided not to look a gift horse in the mouth left with my reduced purchase. Is there a sale going on?

[EDIT: typo]

SC:

Same thing here in PA. The shelftags said $7.77 as well. Pretty neat.

Depends. One cashier (WM) literally interpreted it as applying only to Animated Voyagers. At a TRU, I used on 2 Universe deluxes & 1 legend. It's kind of hit or miss.

I forgot about those coupons. I could have been eating Happy Meals (or whatever) and getting sweet TF deals all at the same time!

When TF Animated was the toy inside Happy Meals, there was a coupon on the bag that reads:

Save $5.00 on any Transformers Animated toy purchase of $19.99 or or more!


They're good until 1/26/09. I still have three of them in my wallet (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif)

Now I definitely need to go see if my local Wal-Mart has Crasher. Can't resist a chance to get something I want for less money than usual!

I checked my receipt for the spare Fracture I bought, $7.77. May have to get Crankcase next week if that price holds...

Actually, all Deluxes are $7.77 right now. The exclusives, the other Movie stuff that they just got back in, Universe, and Animated.
At least, that's the way it is at the Wal-Mart near me.

Indeed. $7.77 Fracture for me! And it seems to have helped the glut of Universe Sunstreaker the store had been under before. They were down to just three today, and no other Deluxe Universe representation. Anybody think to inquire to a department manager or somesuch how long this price drop is expected to last?

Well, the coupon worked, YAYYYYY! Got me Grindcore and Divebomb for $7.77 at the Scotia Wal-mart, and broke down and bought Universe Voyager Heavyload for some reason as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-fire.gif)

Ah well, it was less than $30 for them all, so today was a good day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-ironhide.gif)
