Title: Midway Arcade Cabinet @ JCPenney for $129.99
Post by: master doggy on January 31, 2007, 07:20:24 pm: Just wanted people to know that the Midway Arcade cabinets are now on clearance at JCPenney.
I purchased one for $129.99 on 1/28/07 at the JCPenney store in Glendale, CA.
The final price was after the clearance price was discounted and then another 50% was discounted off the clearance price.
I think I got a good deal and it works great.

How did you get the additional 50% off?

They have them in-store. They want to get rid of the stock now that the holiday season is over.

Post by: master doggy on February 01, 2007, 02:59:19 pm: I'll check my receipt tonight to find out the exact breakdown of the discount and I'll post my findings.

By the way, I would recommend you call your local JCPenney store before you go down
there because these things were selling like hotcakes and they might be all gone. When you
call the store and they tell you there's none left ask them to check the Clearance area near
Men's Clothing because that's where I saw the Midway on display and the boxes are all right near the display model.

Please note, the cashier had to check the UPC on the side of the box
because he couldn't find the item listed in the computer.

So I did, after searching through the place I found nothing and asked the workers there only to get the confused look and shrugged sholder treatment.

I wasn't too impressed with the one I played with during the christmas blitz.
Looked like they were using a cheep TV screen for a monitor, as the graphics were very poor. Still for a buck & a quarter . . . :cry:
