• KBToys - Note from the Field on the Buy 1 Get 1 Free Sale

  Just got back from the outlet stores 'Midnight Madness Black Friday' event...  A sharp stick in the eye would have been less painful... Anyway, I dropped by the KBtoys store, and checked out the Buy 1 Get 1 Free sale in-store sale.  Very limited selection of last gen software (Gamecube, PS2, GBA) with some PSP and DS selections.  Not only was the selection last gen, but it was outdated/old titles. IMO... don't make a special trip for this one... [Submitted by Smitty, Thanks!]     Posted Friday, November 23, 2007 2:33 AM from Cheap Xbox 360 - Gamer News | 0 Comments
