GameStop customers have until October 25 to take advantage of the latest Buy 2 Get 1 Free deal on pre-owned games, but only if they are Pro members. Used games are GameStop’s bread and butter. For decades, the video game retailer has purchased used video games and consoles from customers to then sell back to others for a profit. While GameStop’s policies have often been criticized, there’s no denying the convenience factor of simply taking some games into one of its stores for immediate cash or in-store credit instead of trying to sell online through places like eBay and Facebook Marketplace.
Even though GameStop usually sells used games for much more than what it purchases them for, the used games are often still cheaper than buying brand-new. GameStop also regularly hosts Buy 2 Get 1 free promotions on its used games, giving physical game collectors the chance to significantly grow their collections without breaking the bank.
GameStop Buy 2 Get 1 Free Deal Dates
Until October 25, the GameStop Buy 2 Get 1 Free deal is back. The free game will be whatever the cheapest game selected is, so GameStop shoppers should keep that in mind. Another caveat to consider is that this deal is exclusive to Pro members. A GameStop Pro membership is $25 per year, but potentially pays for itself depending on how often one shops there.
Besides the fact that they will be able to take advantage of the latest Buy 2 Get 1 free deal, GameStop shoppers that sign up for a Pro membership also get a $5 Welcome Reward, a $5 reward every month for 12 months, free shipping on orders $54+, a $5 renewal reward when they auto-renew, 10% extra cash or credit on trade-ins, plus 5% off all graded trading cards, digital games, virtual currencies, pre-owned products, collectibles, clearance, GameStop brands, and more. There are also Pro exclusive deals and drops (like the ongoing Buy 2 Get 1 Free promotion), 4 Pro Weeks a year, and 2% back in rewards.
Those that only shop at GameStop once in a blue moon probably don’t need to sign up for a Pro membership, but it’s a good deal for frequent shoppers. Depending on how much the games cost, it might also be worth it to sign up and take advantage of this Buy 2 Get 1 Free deal while it’s live if nothing else. Remember, the promotion is available until October 25, so anyone interested will want to act fast.
