I wanted everyone to know that if they still need to buy the latest expansion, MicroCenter has it for only twenty dollars. (Technically $19.99)

I bought one of them and when I got home and looked at the receipt, I understood why the total at the store had seemed low. I went back the same day (yesterday) and bought 5 more.

It is a great savings and I hope some of you can take advantage of it. I have no idea how long this will last, but I understand that perhaps they bought too many of them... Thus the reduction in price to move the product.

This could really help out multi-boxers who still need the upgrade.

Now if I could just find a good deal on the Battlechest for another three accounts...

Here is the link...

p.s.- Hope I am not in violation of any rules and regs by mentioning MicroCenter. No affiliation here. Just trying to help out.

:)

All the best,

Grail

Usually fine to pass along bargains. This is a good one, hard to find the new Xpac on sale. None in Washington, and it says one per household in ad.

Hey all,

Like alcattle said, I just noticed that the new mailer which I was reading today says "One per Household."

However, I bought all five and they only looked at me a little strange with "Are these all the same?" I responded with "I play several games at once."

I had no idea it was supposed to be a one buy limit. Neither did they.

It was fine. Worse case scenario, for that price I would have bought one at a time. Or, taken some family members to along! If the website prevented someone from purchasing more than one, I bet placing multiple orders would work. If shipping was not bad that would still be a good deal. Of course, if there is a store near you, ---> No Shipping.

Again, I had no problems at all. Hope some of you can get in on it if you still need more copies.

Do I sound like a broken record? LOL I promise not to keep this up, but as I gear up for 5 boxing I have to buy more copies of the game and you all know how the cost of multi-boxing can add up. That said I was excited to find this deal today. It wasn't there yesterday I am quite sure.

I got an e-mail from Amazon advertising "Buy WoW, get Burning crusade free." That deal may or may not be available to everyone, but the deal on the battlechest should be. Either way it is a total of $19.99. Not quite the deal they offered at the end of last year ($5.00 for WoW, $5.00 for B.C., and I think $10.00 for WotLK) but better than the $35.00 to $39.99 I was about to pay.

Now, there is a one per customer limit, but I just enlisted family to help out and saved a total of $60.00.

I hope some of you can do the same.

Suggestion: Maybe there could be a forum on this site for super deals across all game genres and for hardware also that could specifically help us Multi-Boxers.

Notice how I said "Us Multi-Boxers" :D

Unlike many of you, I haven't actually gotten there yet, but I am working on it! Hope to Launch this summer.

All my best to the community,

Grail

P.S.- I will try to msg an admin to make sure these two posts I have recently made are acceptable. Otherwise, when I see an Intel 6 core 4 x SSD system with 2 x 570s and all the bells and whistles with triple monitors for $19.99

I promise I won't tell a soul.

I don't think there's any problems with posting about WoW sales, as long as it's from reputable places. People are always on the look out for them in case they want to start a new team, add to an existing one or get "throwaway accounts" to restart RAF.

Thanks Khatovar,

I appreciate the input. I wasn't even thinking about throw away accounts.

Glad to be part of the team here at dual-boxing.

Definitely good to let people know about sales. I was just about to drop $39.99 x4 for cata before I saw your post.

A "Good Deals" forum might be a good idea. Boxers aren't the typical shoppers and could benefit from deals that don't otherwise get a lot of press on the plethora of deal sites and forums out there. Great deal on some crazy monitor mounts? Not going to be a headline on slickdeals or woot! :)
