I got Brute Force for free!!! Must Read!

**E Nomini Patri** · 06-05-2003

OK, I had a friend over the other night and he's like, "I want to play Brute Force!" So I say sure, I'll take back Wolfenstein to Wal-Mart cause I have my receipt, and trade it for Brute Force, then buy Wolfenstein again when I save up enough cash. So, we go to Wal-Mart, and I try to trade my used copy of Wolfenstein, but they say I can only exchange for the same game, and ask me what's wrong with my current copy. I say it used to work, but I keep getting errors and stuff, so they say, ok, go grab the game and bring it back to the desk. So I go and get a brand new, sealed copy of Wolfenstein, and go back to the desk. The old lady asks me for my receipt so she can mark it, while I set the game on the counter for her to look at etc.

Well, she hands me my receipt back, and then hands me 53.77$ in cash. I'm like..."OK..." and start to walk off, but she says, here's your game, so I grab it, and my friend and I rush out before the lady can realize she just gave me money and the game! We get out to his car, and I tell him to go back in and get Brute Force for me cause I can afford it lol. So he goes in and buys it, and then we go to my place and play it!

Just thought you should know how Wal-Mart employees can act smart, but be dumb. Thanks for the free game Wal-Mart!

BTW, the game kicks ass, but I haven't played it enough to rate it or anything.

BASTAGE! I wish I had the money to get recent games. I am just a jobless college student at the moment. Scrimping off of loan money.

Oh well, I should have a job soon.

If they are that stupid, then enjoy your game and I hope your conscience is free and clear of guilt.

Wow, that was cool. Stuff like that never happens to me.

Last summer we decided to go to the Outer Banks w/ my parents and my wife's parents and booked a rental house through SeaSide Realty. They required something like 50% when you book and 50% 30 days before your arrival date. We book and send a check for 50%. Thirty days before, we send another check and the company calls and asks what we want done w/ the check. We're like,"Apply it against our rental" Duh! They proceed to tell us that we're paid in full via a Visa w/ our names on it and told us the expiration as well (but not the account #). We have a Discover & Mastercard, but no Visa. We checked w/ the others going (just in case), but none of them paid it either. We tell them that we did not pay it and don't have any Visa cards. They tell us that's fine, but it's paid and they won't come back to us because it's paid in full. So, we got the rental for 50% and saved $700!

9 times out of 10 it will work....but if the game looks real beat up they wont do it.

**Ford Mustang** · 06-06-2003

Yes, that will work at Wal-Mart

I used that on Real War: Rogue States and Project Gotham...Then I bought PGR for $20 USD like a month after....lol

If I have a guilty conscience from that, I shouldn't be playing video games

**Cybiker** · 06-06-2003

Well..i guess CompUSA Employee's are worse than Walmart employees...at least in my area...I go there to get some hardware for my pc..i get a soundcard...and a few other things...then i ask my dad if i can ge this altec lansing speaker set for like $100...he was like "It's your money.." so i grabbed it...well...my dad had a few things for business...so he checked those out..paid..then I put up my sound card...and i had been carrying the speaker box for a long time so i decided to put it on the counter...well the stupid cashier deactivated the security mechanism on the sound card..but since I put the speaker box up at the perfect time...she took the speakers...deactivated them...rung up the speakers..put the sound card in the bag...put a sticker on the speakers...and totally forgot to ring up the sound card...so me and my dad bolted out of that parking lot..hehe...Sound Blaster MP3+...$100...for free

..so i pretty much say i got my speakers for nuttin..

A similar thing happened to me at WaL-MART. I returned a game and I could only get the same one. It was Bruce Lee(pppppeeeeeeuuuuu). I went back and got my game (the same game) and they forgot to take it out of the package so, a half hour later after lunch I went back and said I bought the game from there but had no receipt. They gave me the money cause they carried the same product. I also
Swapped a Dreamcast that was bought from Kmart that my bro dumped a coke on. It didn't even have a game inside like it was supposed to but wal-mart took it anyways.
