(In retail, anyway.)

Some time ago, many of you may remember that I had planned to purchase DK's Jungle Beat with a bongo from amazon.com for $19.99. Well, I didn't. Woops. Anyway, I walked into eb games today and found the exact same thing, brand new for $14.99. Needless to say, I jumped. As I was being rung up, the girl at the register told her colleague to go get a bongo controller from the back.

I asked, confused, "Doesn't that giant box already have the bongo controller in it?"
Pointing at the newspaper ad, she replied, "Yes it does. But you also get another one as part of the deal."

I traded in $14.00 of games today. I ended up paying $1.05 for a brand new game and two brand new bongo controllers. DK's Jungle Beat doesn't even support multiplayer. I am so happy!
