Normally I don't shill for Amazon so blatantly, but this is a pretty good deal. Right now they've got a two for one sale on all Hasbro, Milton Bradley or Parker Brothers games, with free shipping. It might be a good time to stock up on the classics you remember playing when you were a kid like Sorry! Or get your kid a new-school classic like Disney Princess Monopoly Jr., where you:
"Choose your favorite princess and dash around the gameboard to buy homes for as many Disney friends as you can! Then when other players land on your spaces, they must pay you to visit."
Princesses, capitalism and paying for friends. So many mixed messages in one game!
Check out the 2 for 1 sale on games at Amazon.com Offer expires 10-15-05.
NOTE: I just tried this and it's pretty confusing. What you have to do is go to purchase the more expensive item, then click the "second one for free" link in the "Special Offer" paragraph on that page. Then get the coupon code for the cheaper item on that page and follow the step by step instructions
If that doesn't work (it didn't for me), then make sure you get the coupon code for the cheaper of the two items, put both items in your cart and use the coupon code when you check out. It should work then.
You don't normally shill so blatantly for Amazon, but you do, of course make sure that your affiliate link is posted.
If you want to scam people, do it honestly...

How is my affiliate link scamming people? I found a sale, I honestly thought it was a good deal (I took advantage of it myself) and I posted a link to it. I get a very small commission for items shipped through people visiting my site, and clicking my affiliate link doesn't change the price for visitors to my site whatsoever. Doesn't every web site with links to Amazon use affiliate links? If they don't, they should.
And if you're going to be critical, at least have the guts to post your real email address.
