Get Mario Kart Wii for $50:
This is a some what risky and unethical approach, but Rayman: Raving Rabbids and Surf’s Up are both a part of EB Games’ 2 for $50 sale but not JB Hi-Fi’s exclusion list. So it might be possible to buy those two for $50 at EB and then trade them for Mario Kart Wii at JB. It is risky though because JBs exclusion list quotes “This list is subject to change at any time at JB Hi-Fi’s discretion” and they may have already anticipated the abuse.
Anthony recommends you tell the JB salesperson you speak to up front what you plan on doing to avoid disappointment.

Ask the game specialist at JB if you can definitely do the trade in BEFORE you buy the games. That way you won’t wind up with two games you do not want.
