I'm not sure if this is a particularly good unadvertised deal or if the cashier at Circuit City just rang up the purchase incorrectly.
I went to Circuit City last night and I noticed a some untagged GBA (Glacier) boxes with a sticker indicating that Yoshi's Island was included inside. I took it up for a price check and the cashier told me it was $69.95. I decided not to look at gift horse in the mouth and I purchased it right away. Sure enough, when I opened the box, there was a game pak inside of Yoshi's Island.
Mostly likely this was a human error though. I did notice at one point during the transaction that the register screen prompted the cashier to select between two choices and she picked the first one. I later browsed through the store and all the rest of their GBA were listed as $69.95 and Yoshi's Island: Super Mario 3 in the retail box was listed as $27.95.
But if it happened to me, it could happen to you too. Just look around for a clueless cashier first.
Someone please correct me if GBA have been packaged with Yoshi's Island all this time for this price and I've just been clueless til now.
