Basically, Game has a large proportion of the market share. We start our sale on Christmas Eve I think, well for the decent stuff anyway. And we bought Gamestation last year.

Do you get discount like 20% off or something, my sister works at WHSmiths and they have a sorta point system where they can get so much off an item.

They do, someone on youtube who works there told us.
What deals you got this year mangle, ones that really stick out.

Ontopic: But EBgames is owned by Gamestop. So did Game buy EBgames stores in the UK?

EB was once a franchise here about 10 years ago, but all stores were acquired by GAME. Much like GameStation, but they kept the branding on GS stores.

I get 25% off games :)
And Paul, we've got quite a few. Depends on what system, we've only just done the pre-owned in my shop atm. Nothing really stands out atm though aha.
