I live in NYC and I have seen the game in CompUSA (not yet in EB), and in
other independent stores, but the price is listed at $39.99 (?!). I have
read a post or two of people being able to get it for $19.99. Is this only
an EB price, or is there some kind of mistake being made somewhere? Any
info is appreciated. The demo is excellent (I love the "cockpit 2" view
myself)!!
L.S.
I posted this a while back, so I don't know if it's still in effect:
FYI, it looks like the retail price on F1CS2000 is going to be $39.95,
but you can get it for $19.95 (plus $5.99 shipping) if you drink Pepsi
products.
If you already do drink Pepsi products (Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Mountain
Dew, Diet Dew, etc.), you may have noticed the yellow caps and
the "Pepsi Points" promotion going on with the 20-ounce bottles. Under
each cap is a code that you enter in at the Pepsi Stuff Web site
(http://www.pepsistuff.com/). Each cap is worth either 100 Pepsi Points
(unfortunately, instead of Pepsi Points, you will occasionally find
that the cap is an instant $10 off of any purchase at certain shoe or
music stores). The best part is that you can get a $20-off e-coupon for
EA games for only 1,500 points (that's 15 Pepsis or Dews, if you don't
want to do the math yourself). I purchased The Sims for my wife about
week ago using the $20 discount, and it arrived in about 3-4 days.
Today I noticed that they have F1CS2000 listed, so I went ahead and
ordered it using my Pepsi Points for another $20-off e-coupon.
You can find the EA Store Pepsi listing here:
http://www.eastore.elicense.com/pepsi/
Hope this helps some of you out. $24.95 (the discount price plus
shipping) isn't quite bargain-bin level, but it's enough of a
bargain/discount for me.
Also FWIW, I don't know if Pepsi Points are transferrable, but I
currently have 3,200 points still available, and I would be willing to
try to work something out with any of you who would like to take
advantage of the Pepsi Points discount. I've only got enough points to
help two of you out, but drop me a line if you'd like to try to work
something out.

P.S. In case you're curious, I'm strictly a Diet Dew guy -- all the
caffeine with none of the sugar to bring you down! <G>

LOL! This is how I got mine for $19, also!
So, are you a Dew guy too, Dave, or do you prefer Pepsi?
