Saving money is against the rules

Apparently it's against the rules to tell people the details about 3rd party sales. So, for anyone that missed it, a certain nameless product from a certain nameless company is on sale at a certain nameless retailer, and it's something that you are all interested in. You should Google this rogue merchandise and see if you can find the best buy.

several similar posts have been ganked from a variety of other forums.
the reason given by Mod 12 is a rule against advertising goods or services purchasable with actual money.

yes, on these forums it's illegal to "advertise" the very game the forums serve...genius!

It's a very valid legal liability issue, which is why I reposted it in vague enough language that you can draw your own conclusions to what exactly I'm talking about. If, you know, you've had a lobotomy or something.

I am sure to shop around for the new expansion pack in the hopes of getting the best possible buy on it. I normally check game stores first, but I've got a hunch that I should be sticking with the big box retailers this time. Of course, that could be a pre-order only thing. Coincidentally, I just placed exactly such a preorder, with any luck tomorrow the nice guys in the blue shirts will have our order ready for pickup.

I stopped by on location today. They said the sale would stay in effect through the end of the week, if not longer. Still, better to buy ASAP.

It's always good to be proactive. I would be sad if I were to walk into a store -- say, tomorrow -- and found out that the very product I wanted would have been cheaper if I'd ordered the day before.

A little bird tells me that we're free to say where we bought it and that it's a great deal, as long as we don't bring in specific price points. So mod your post MeanNVicious before the thread gets nuked

In that case, I will pass on that I pre-ordered three copies from Best Buy, at a price I was personally happy with, and we'll be popping over to grab them sometime tomorrow.
