    From the cheapest source. Which usually translates to stores with good bargain bins.

    No store loyalty, at all. I pre-shop online, then buy at the cheapest vendor - sometimes that's online, other times brick-and-mortar.

    Depends, if I want something new I want it NOW. Lately I go to 'free record shop' as they sell a lot of good second-hand games for low prices. I bought devil may cry 3 for 15 euro, beat that

    FutureShop for 90% of them.

    It's the biggest (and only) store within 20 miles of me. Cool place. Tons of games, DVDs, giant screen TVs, and computer stuff. I can spend hours in there.

    Me too. Plus there is the E3 esque white noise of the place that is strangely comforting. Unfortunatly here in New Scotland there are only 2 future shop stores and they are both a lengthy bus ride from me home. Plus EB games is much cheaper usually.

    My curiosity does indeed stem from my employment. I'm not going to run out and tell my boss what the result is though. I think he'd have a heart attack if I did. All I have to say is that it is a good thing we bought EB games. And bless that one person here who shops at GameStop.

    Kukri: If you ever feel a hankering, drop by the GameStop at Broadway and Oxford in Chula Vista. You know who to ask for. And bring my beer.
