Start planning - GameStop’s Black Friday 2008 ad has been leaked

by Jenni Lada on Nov 20, 2008 at 09:40 PM

GameStop logo Black Friday 2008Well, the most anticipated video game related Black Friday ad may have just emerged today. Both Kotaku and BlackFriday.info are reporting that GameStop’s ad circular for Black Friday 2008 has been leaked onto the internet. Aside from the rather obvious “Buy 2 Get 1 Free” used game deal that GameStops are known for, there are also a few extra notable sales. Plus, GameStops will give an extra $40 credit to people who trade in PS3s, Wiis or Xbox 360s. Extra credit will also be given if you trade in games - 3 games get 10% extra credit, 4 gets 20% extra and 5 gets 30% extra.

You have to be careful when checking the ad though. While some deals are really good, there are quite a few advertisements for games that aren’t discounted. So be sure to comparison shop before committing to buying a game from GameStop’s Black Friday ad. The ad also highlights that GameStops will have 2,500 possible video game items for under $20 and, if you don’t mind picking up a preowned game as a gift, they likely will. However, a lot of these 2,500 items under $20 are that price everyday, so you don’t have to worry about the sales.

Also, GameStop will be donating to charity this holiday season. The ad mentions that GameStop will donate $1 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation every time someone buys a gift card between November 3 and December 26, 2008. It also states that up to a $300,000 donation will be made to Make-A-Wish due to this promotion.

To make things easier for you, Gamertell has poured over the possible GameStop Black Friday 2008 ad and picked out the notable deals.
