Fire Sale

The Fire Sale, also known as Power-Surge in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is a power-up that appears in the Zombie maps Kino der Toten, "Five", Ascension, Call of the Dead, Shangri-La, Moon, Nuketown Zombies, Mob of the Dead, Buried, Origins, Shadows of Evil, The Giant, Der Eisendrache, Zetsubou No Shima, Gorod Krovi, Revelations, Verrückt (Black Ops III only), Shi No Numa (Black Ops III and Vanguard only), Zombies in Spaceland, Rave in the Redwoods, Shaolin Shuffle, Attack of the Radioactive Thing, The Beast From Beyond, Voyage of Despair, IX, Blood of the Dead, Classified, Dead of the Night, Ancient Evil, Alpha Omega, Tag der Toten, Die Maschine, Firebase Z, Outbreak, Mauer der Toten, and Forsaken, as well as all Exo Zombies maps. It causes all the possible Mystery Box, 3D Printer and Magic Wheel locations to spawn temporarily and reduces the price of all three to 10 points for 30 seconds. This power-up is very helpful if any player just died, are looking for better weapons, and/or is running low on points. However, it can distract some players who only focus on using the Box/Printer/Wheel and leave them oblivious to a mass of zombies running towards them. It is also more likely to drop in the middle of a round when it's too dangerous to focus on gambling for a random weapon. Out of all the power-ups, this one is the rarest to find under normal circumstances, except in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, in which Infinite Ammo is the rarest to find.
==Overview==
===Call of Duty: Black Ops===
The Fire Sale reduces the cost of using the Mystery Box from 950 points to 10 points and spawns the Mystery Box at all spawn locations for 30 seconds. However, all Mystery Boxes will disappear except the one that has already spawned before the sale began. The original Mystery Box won't move because of the Fire Sale. Mystery Boxes used near the end of a Fire Sale will provide players with the usual amount of time to claim their weapon even after the sale ends, disappearing after the box closes.
===Call of Duty: Black Ops (Nintendo DS)===
The Fire Sale is different in the DS version of Zombies; it halves the price of every purchasable weapon. The doors cost 2500 points and 5000 points respectively and the Mystery Box requires 475 points.
===Call of Duty: Black Ops II===
The Fire Sale returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops II, but only on Nuketown Zombies, Mob of the Dead, Buried and Origins. Its function is identical as it was in Call of Duty: Black Ops, spawning the Mystery Box at all spawn locations for 30 seconds and reducing the price to 10 points. Additionally, it is one of the random power-ups that may appear behind the ruined shack in Nuketown Zombies. If the player gets a teddy bear and a Fire Sale, once he/she gets their weapon and the Fire Sale ends, the gun in the box acts like a teddy bear and flies away (Only works on the mystery box with the teddy bear). In Grief mode, both teams will benefit from the power-up unlike other power-ups.
===Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare===
Fire Sale makes an appearance in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Exo Zombies as Power Surge.
===Call of Duty: Black Ops III===
The Fire Sale is featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops III, appearing in all maps. The Fire Sale can now also affect GobbleGum machines, lowering the cost of each use by 490 points.
The GobbleGum "Immolation Liquidation" allows for the manual spawning of Fire Sales, with up to three per GobbleGum
===Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare===
Fire Sale makes an appearance in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, appearing in the first map, Zombies in Spaceland. The Fire Sale acts similarly to the original versions, only affecting the Magic Wheel. However, this version does not contain a song that plays during the power-up's activity. The beam of light that indicates a Wheel's location will change to a bright red as opposed to a bright blue during the power-up's effect. The Fortune Card "Black Friday" will forcefully spawn a Fire Sale power-up when used.
===Call of Duty: Black Ops 4===
Fire Sale returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 on the maps, Voyage of Despair, IX, Blood of the Dead, Classified, Dead of the Night, Ancient Evil, Alpha Omega and Tag der Toten
===Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War===
Fire Sale returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War on the maps, Die Maschine, Firebase Z, Mauer der Toten and Forsaken. It also appears in the Zombies Experience, Outbreak.
===Call of Duty: Vanguard===
Fire Sale returns in Call of Duty: Vanguard on the maps, Shi No Numa and The Archon.
===Call of Duty: Black Ops 6===
Fire Sale returns in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

==Trivia==
*The Fire Sale theme song (before Richtofen's Grand Scheme) is exactly 1:15 long, a reference to Element 115.
*On "Five" and Ascension, the monitors that display box spawns will instead show the words "Sale!" in front of static.
*If the map's easter egg song is playing, the Fire Sale theme will play over it.
*In Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies, Fire Sales also reduce traps to 10 points.
* According to a cut quote of Richtofen in the game files, the Fire Sale was originally going to appear on Tranzit. Jimmy Zielinski said on Twitter that it was cut because the map was too big and there weren't enough box spawn points. https://twitter.com/ZielinskiJimmy/status/319709115674935296
**The same occurs on Die Rise, which was too big and only had three box spawn points across the whole map.
*There is no jingle for the Fire Sale on Mob of the Dead.
*If the player completes Richtofen's side of Mined Games, the player is rewarded with a permanent Fire Sale.
*In Call of Duty: Black Ops, Call of Duty: Black Ops II, Call of Duty: Black Ops III, and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, the Fire Sale can only be obtained after the box has been moved at least once.
**Therefore, if the box is locked down in its initial location with Candy in Buried, the Fire Sale cannot be obtained.
**This does not apply to Fire Sales earned through GobbleGums.
**Fire Sale still spawns like a normal power-up in Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and does not require the Wheel to be moved.
*In Call of Duty: Black Ops III, the Fire Sale theme will only play when the player is in relatively close proximity to a Mystery Box.
*The Fortune Card that spawns in a Fire Sale, "Black Friday", is a reference to the popular shopping day of Black Friday, in which retailers market their merchandise at a very high discount.
*The jingle that plays during a Fire Sale comes from a stock track titled Riffs and Blues.http://links.universalproductionmusic.com/Ge2sUV
**The jingle that plays when Richtofen serves as the announcer is taken from a stock track titled Manic Maid.http://links.universalproductionmusic.com/bSTXeD
