Best deal you have ever found

[FFP2]

I got these games for around 10 pounds each from Amazon: Bayo, The Witcher 2 & Lollipop Chainsaw.

Amazon really screwed me over with shipping though, the ones I bought directly from them had like 15 pounds shipping included.

But by far the best "deal" I had this year was Katawa Shoujo. Who would've thunk that my GOTY was a free VN.

i got red dead redemption for 20$ less than a month after it was released. got it off someone who bought it on release day and hated it after a few hours of playing it

 

[Rednog]

I got the full Rockband 2 kit (guitar, drums, etc) for $20; there was a price mistake instead of $119.99 I got it for $19.99.

 

[Kroxile]

I found an unopened, still shrink wrapped, copy of Super Mario Bros. 3 for $3 at a video rental place that was clearing out inventory.

Once saw a pretty awesome special where you could buy the special edition of Arkham City, Resistance 3 and some other newish game for like $20 altogether. Sadly I was too late to get any of them though.

Recently my boss sold me a $900 guitar for $100. that was nice.
also just got a brand new Sovereignty bong for FAR less than retail, Which is amazing because it'll hold it's above retail resale value for years.

Probably A Link to the Past for SNES for $1 back in grade school. The kid I bought it from had spilled an entire bottle of cologne on it and didn't think it would ever work. I told him I'd buy it if it still worked I would by it if it did. It works to this day, thought the first few days it made the entire room smell like cologne.

I got premium membership to a forum I used to frequent for free ($15 normally). All I did was write up some tutorials for a fellow forum member's personal site, and BAM he bought premium membership for me. Too bad I haven't visited the site in like 5 years.

Ico for the Ps2 used in one of the busiest EBgames in town with manual and box in good condition. 5$. This was before the HD rerelease.

As far as games go Steam sales are the best I've ever found.

However I once found a 15 pound turkey for $0.27 which was great.

...I lead an exciting life

 

[Bazaalmon]

I bought a Burberry trenchcoat at an estate sale for $50. I looked the price up online, and it was over $3,000 originally.
That's a 99% discount!
I also got a really nice Fender Stratocaster (I forget which model, one of the $2000ish ones) for $100, because the guy who sold it to me got really drunk one night and tried to make it into a "relic" by chipping the edges and scratching the neck and stuff. He sobered up and realized that it was terrible. It still plays perfectly, it's just in a bit of a state. Not a bad guitar for a beginner at all!
Also: Steam sales. All the Steam sales!

About ten years ago I went into a pawn shop and found, sitting next to each other in the display case, A Link to the Past and Earthbound. I think they were 3 bucks each. I was pretty sure I could hear a heavenly choir in the distance as I bought them.

 

[RustlessPotato]

Dunno. I got Skyrim for 15 euro's when it was brand new. Also got my electric piano, the stand and pedal and a headset that goes along with it for 400 euros, so that was pretty sweet .

 

[DrRockor]

I got the THQ humble bundle for £6 and all 13 Battle Royale mange for £65. I think thats the best I got

You two are magical.

When my copy of Morrowind died I picked up a copy of the game of the year edition of it from Amazon for one cent. I somehow got a free shipment for it, so that was pretty awesome. This was when it was still relatively new and going for 40ish euros.

 

[TheColdHeart]

I once went to a local supermarket near bonfire night and they had a "Spend £25 on fireworks get £30 worth free" we had to double check the offer but yeah...£50 of fireworks got us £110 worth.

I got the Bruce Campbell DVD collection box set brand new online for £5 once too, that was a pretty awesome saving.

In a supermarket reduced to clear section I got a 3KG lamb leg joint for £3 too.

 

[krugerrand123]

For about $2.00, I was able to get about 8 old German mark coins, which you can still exchange for euros, 7 swiss francs, and a silver quarter worth about $7.00 in silver at the time.

An amazing deal

One other deal: I got Fifa 13 for $25 a few weeks after release at Amazon on their Black Friday deals. Pretty cool.

Last week I got a Logitech H800 Headset for $49 when the RRP is $99, was fairly happy about that. Got a full refund on my last pair when the left speaker failed and then got something better for cheaper so that worked out well.

 

[Dags90]

My tablet was reasonably priced, $299 for a 10.1" tablet at Office Depot. On Amazon it's listed for $360, so about 20% off. My friend works at Kohls, so using her employee discount I managed to get around $300 retail of kitchen and bath stuff for $80.
