Things You'll Need:
- Small amount of money
- Television
- Video game console
-
Step 1
When in doubt, buy used games. Buying a used game can usually save you at least five dollars. If you need that newer game right now, you can find the used version only a few weeks after it’s first released.
-
Step 2
Wait longer for bargain prices. The longer you wait to buy a game, the cheaper it will be. It’s common to find a certain game for half the price after it’s been out for one year.
-
Step 3
Look for sales. It doesn’t happen often, but some stores have video game sales. This is usually during the holiday season and it can save you at least a few bucks.
-
Step 4
Check out stores that are going out of business. When an electronics store goes out of business, they have great discounts on all their merchandise. While televisions and movies move quickly, there are usually a lot of great video games left. If a store is closing near you, jump on this opportunity.
-
Step 5
Rent games instead of buying them. Some games don’t take very long to complete. For these titles, you can save money by renting them instead. This is also a huge money saver if you don’t care much for owning a large video game collection.
-
Step 6
Buy games from friends. Friends will always give you a great deal. If they’re low on funds, suggest buying some of their games. You’ll be doing them a favor!
