Hey folks. Sorry that you're overworked and underpaid. Apologies for asking here, but I tried local stores, and couldn't get an answer. Hope you understand. Sorry if this is long winded, just a gamer trying to save a buck.

I'm trying to get the Physical copy of Super Mario RPG as cheap as possible. (My pro literally runs out the next day after it drops. No, I won't be renewing, thanks to the info from you fine folks about all the cuts.)

One of the promos is an additional 20% in trade credit when trading towards certain new releases, SMRPG being one of them.

My question is, does this promo end when it drops (in order to bump up pre-sale numbers I'd assume) or will it continue after the release date?

I'm sure people are going to tell me to pre-order, but the only reason I'm waiting til launch is to try to get the $5 off $15 "order online, pick up in store bonus" (which doesnt work when setting up a pre-order), on top of my $5 monthly coupon and using the last of my points, and a trade or two, and $20 in gift cards.

Any help or advice is appreciated, and let it be known there's at least one customer that appreciates and respects what you folks do.
