Wii Software \ Zack & Wiki for $50

I am wondering, if I use the 2 for $50 from EB to get two wii games then trade them in at JB for Zac & Wiki, will that work? I got JB's list of excluded games from their website and many of the games from EB's '2 for $50' deal are not on the exclusion list.

Has everyone tried this?

Yes, it would work. If not print everything out and show them. I just looked at the website myself. They said they won't take doubles though so just make it two different games that aren't on the list.

ok, here is my thinking:

1) obtain a 15% off coupon by signing up on EB website
2) get 2 games for $50 at EB and then use the 15% off coupon. That means you only pay $42.5.
3) trade your games to jb

That sounds about right although it can sometime depend which employee you get some may allow it and some might not.

At EB, they are asking you to trade 3 wii games to get Mario Kart Wii for free.

BTW, i got No More Heroes yesterday for $67.15 at EB Games. They were selling it for $99 but they matched JB HiFi's price of $79 - then i used my 15% off voucher that i got from signing up to get EB's email newsletter.

Thanks for this; I bought Rayman Raving Rabbids and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. Now I need to get my mother to trade them in; two years too young. Although admittedly, I'm already getting attached to these games

@hainaku
I usually have a "No Buy From EB" policy, but I suppose pricematching then 15%-offing would be good.

I bought Rayman Raving Rabbids and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. I traded both of them in at Jb Hi-fi today for Sega Superstars tennis. I played it for 5 mins and put it back in its case(shocking game).

Does Jb hi-fi have the 7 day trial period like Eb Games & Game?

BWii isn't really that great. After about 15-20 minutes, I had already completed 10% of the game. I was gunna get Bully but they where out of stock. I still have my receipt, so i might return it for Zack and Wiki if i can.
