So, seeing as how we all love games here, here's a thread to help save you a few bucks (or demolish your wallet) - for the most part, I'll only have notable deals up here, although you're free to post whatever deals you like. As deals change, I'll be updating the thread (weekly for the most part). Most of these deals will be courtesy of CAG (http://www.cheapassgamer.com (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/) - a great site to frequent if you're looking to buy a game or console for less), but any other sources are welcome.
Circuit City
20% off all $19.99 or less games - you may have to mention that it's on the weekly ad if it doesn't ring up.
Paypal
$15 rebate after a purchase of $30 or more - limited to one per paypal account, this applies to any vendor/seller other than those with Paypal Personal Accounts. An example of a store that this works on is Newegg.https://paypal.promotionexpert.com/greatshopping/signup/200702/misc_s.html?route=misc.s

http://paypal.promotionexpert.com/greatshopping/signup/200702/terms.html - Terms And Conditions
Note: This is an official Paypal promotion, and it can be found right on paypal.com with the appropriate searching (look for $100 million promotion)
Best Buy
Get a $10 gift card with any purchase of 2 advertised Nintendo DS/GBA games - you must be a Reward's Zone member
Listed Games worth considering:
Final Fantasy VI (GBA) - $29.99
Final Fantasy III (DS) - $39.99
Diddy Kong Racing (DS) - $29.99
Note: This isn't the best deal around, but these games aren't likely to drop in price soon. If you're not looking to buy many games for a while, you're better off using that Paypal promotion. I'd also avoid FF III until a better deal comes along, since I find it to be a subpar experience (the money is better spent on a game like Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops).
Google Checkout
$10 off a purchase of $10 or more at participating vendors for new customers
List of participating vendors - http://www.google.com/checkout/signupwelcome.html
Note: You have to signup before February 15th - you can abuse it by making multiple names, but make sure you use a different credit card each time since Google will lock you out if you are caught doing it multiple times with the same credit card account.
