[Nirvanaguy777]

Now this is a good deal, finally ill get seasons 2 and 3 for a fair(i.e. cheap) price, thanks.

[Drico]

That's a killer deal. I got Season 2 for Christmas and have been wanting to pick up 1 and 3 but they usually go for around $35. Awesome. :D

[Sofa King Cheap]

Saw this posted on a couple other sites but not here yet.

Info from a employee who has the new flyers.
Season 4 comes out thursday seasons 1,2,3 are $14.99 out the door no MIR no bs they are saying.

I'm happy get caught up cheap. :D

Big thanks for the heads up. I'm so there for seasons 2 through 4. I'm going to buy them now at BB or CC and then PM it for 110% the difference.

[sj41]

Do they have a website? I don't even know if there is one near me.

[Sofa King Cheap]

Do they have a website? I don't even know if there is one near me.

www.fye.com or www.twec.com

[MrBlud]

I just heard all three seasons ALSO have a $5 MIR, droppong the price to an INSANE $9.99 each! :shock:

[CaseyRyback]

looks like I am missing out on this one. No way in hell I am driving all the way to Southpoint

[bignick]

I'll chip in on gas costs if you get me 2 and 3.....

[CaseyRyback]

It would take me about 40 minutes each way to drive over there.

Maybe someone has one closer to them. I would also be willing to paypal them more than cost to cover shipping and gas

hmmm what if 2 or 3 others wanted in on it also??


I will pay $41 shipped for 2 and 3!!!!!!!!!!!!

[slipkornotpsu]

Does anyone know if this will also be at Coconuts which is a store owned by FYE. Thanks if anyone knows thanks.

[alongx]

I'll have to check this out tomorrow. Damn, and here I was going to try to not spend money for a while.

[CaseyRyback]

Does anyone know if this will also be at Coconuts which is a store owned by FYE. Thanks if anyone knows thanks.

If Coconuts does this then I may just drive to Cary and pick them up. hopefully they have a flyer I can PM

[b3b0p]

You guys do realize by the time they release every season set there will be super duper HD-DVD w/ a 1TB Storage Capacity, holographic 3D tvs, Earthbound 64 launch date set, a re-release of the SNES, Hell will be frozen over, and we will all be dead right?

[$hady]

Hope everyone gets in on this, I'm getting season 2 & 3. Ebay aint that hot on them already and I see the market getting flooded, so i'm not gonna get extra.

These will get me by till Southpark 4 comes out at the end of the month.

Southpark > Simpsons

[JohnnyDrama]

If I'm lucky I could pick up the first 3 seasons, thanks for the info.

[rcannon]

I was at Target today, and saw Season 1 on sale for $19.99. I guess I'll now be making a trip to FYE. Thanks for the find!

[thatstoobad]

although it's really cool that they have such a good sale, it makes me a little sad to know i bought mine for probably around $90 total. oh well, at least i had them when they came out.

looks like a few people will be getting these as birthday or christmas gifts.

[Cracka]

damn i dont think sears has these, or i'd pricematch and get the 10% off... :(


if only family guy were on sale this cheap!

[Ramen_Boy]

Alright, didn't even know my local mall had an FYE, that's what I get for never going :? probably going to skate down there tommorow and pick up seasons 1 and 2, 20 bucks, great deal :)

[jimbodan]

Nice avatar! Kung-Fu ruled for NES.

[rimsforsale]

if anyone need these picked up for them, PM me with an reasonable price asap, pref. before tuesday. i will be picking these up myself also, ill ship it with the receipt too just incase you need to do a return or as a gift. let me know ppl.

[$hady]

Bump for an ad scan

:D

CLICKY CLICKY FIFTEEN DOLLA (http://dvdprime.intizen.com/files/upload/200406/20040613145309980_1.jpg)

No word on that rebate, maybe it's a in store thing?

[alfonsosoriano]

I saw an ad for Strawberries this morning. $14.99 there. But it does say -$5 rebate.

[Irnmk21]

I just got my Coconuts ad in the Sunday Advance and they have the same deal on Simpsons boxsets.

[PHOENIXZERO]

Dammit! :( I just bought the third season a few weeks ago on Ebay... :(

Oh well, the nearest FYE are in Bay City and Saginaw, Mi which is about 40-50miles from where I live.

[Admiral Ackbar]

Just went to FYE and picked up Seasons 2 and 3 for $15 each. But there were no rebates. I had the cashier go behind te counter and check but there were none.

Does it clearly state $5 rebate on the flyer? Are you guys getting the rebate. If so, I'll have to go back and inquire about the rebates again.

[bluetoast]

This is a killer deal, and don't worry if there isn't an FYE. All stores that are owned by them are in on this too, so Suncoast, here I come!

But how do I go about doing the price match? Do I go show them the reciept at Best Buy?

(And on a side note, over on fatwallet, one user tried to do it at Best Buy, but the manager refused, saying that the price was too low, and mentioned a "manager's perogative." Sheesh)

[Sofa King Cheap]

Suncoast isn't part of TWEC stores.

[scuba]

does anyone know when they close?

[sman113]

Spec's Music has these for 9.99 each after $5 rebate. (see my post)

[bluetoast]

Thanks for the info about Suncoast. But one thing. I asked FYE about the rebate and they said there wasn't one. What's the deeeeeal?!

[bowsernieb]

Went in this morn, picked up 2 and 3, no rebate though. If anybody has a scan of the rebate form...post it please.

BUT, for those interested, when Season Four comes out Tuesday, it will be 25 after the 10 dollar rebate, plus you get a free Simpsons talking bottle opener.

[ryan838]

I went and got season 2 and 3 this morning at fye. it was $15 each and i did not get a rebate with them. i went when the mall opened and they didn't have many copies in stock. i think they had like 2 of each season.

[LV-426RS]

They have a list posted in-store of what sets have a rebate. The Simpsons was not on that list. Unfortunately I got carried away talking to someone to remember what was on the list.

[rocksolidaudio]

Isn't it a problem for price-matching that the scan doesn't show the name of the store or anything?

[DX]

I know Wally World is ymmv, but please let me know if you do price match at wally world successfully with a printed ad. That is my only hope unless I drive 50 or so miles.

[LV-426RS]

As some stated above, chance of a pm with that posted ad will be tough. It has no store name on it.

[Admiral Ackbar]

Okay, this is wierd. According to Fatwallet there are rebates for this at some stores and not for others. Confirmed area with the rebate are...

FYE in Wayne NJ at the Preakness Shopping Center
FYE in Coralville, IA
wherehouse music in SoCal
Found the advertised MIRs! For South Florida people, Spec's music stores have the DVDs advertised at $9.99 after $5 MIR.
Wherehouse Music in Redwood City, CA.

I got my copies at the Christiana Mall in Newrak, DE, and there were no rebates. :( Maybe they''ll get them later. I don't know.

Can someone who's going to FYE pick up extra copies of the rebates? Three or four. Then scan them. Or, if worse comes to worse and no copies are allowed, would you mind mailing me a rebate. No rush, I'll try again at my FYE in the middle of the week to find the rebates. Also, check if they allow photocopies in the fine print. I'm pretty sure these rebates will be scanned and hosted soon. I just don't think that a scan will be accepted.

[guyver2077]

just picked up simpsons season 2 and 3.....what a great deal...14.99 each. thanks for the heads up on this deal

no rebate but i aint complaining....who cares...$15 bux is a great price

[bluetoast]

Oh yeah, what's the story on $10 off season 4?

[ayolykewhoa]

SHAQ-FU! I was near a FYE today before I saw this topic! F!@#$%^&

[Admiral Ackbar]

Someone hosted a scan of the rebate form at Fatwallet.

Link to thread (http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/messageview.php?catid=18&threadid=321842&start=100 ).

Looks like the scan won't be valid though. States that you need original rebate form.

Be sure to grab some extra rebates forms. I'd appreciate if someone would mail one to me. Send me a PM.

[bowsernieb]

Yeah I would really appreciate a rebate form or two. If anybody can pick one up, I'd be grateful. PM if you can.

[Javery]

Does the rebate involve cutting up the packaging? If so I will be eating the $5 rebate because in the long run I'd rather have a complete box than $5...

[bluetoast]

No because, on these DVD boxsets, they have a "peel-off" back. It's just a sheet of paper listing the extra features, and that contains the UPC.

[alongx]

I did the same, although I was frustrated when the guy looked at me blankly when I showed him today's newspaper ad saying there was an MIR.

[Jaket]

i picked up all 3 and family guy vol. 1 (for 26 after rebate)

[alongx]

Yeah I would really appreciate a rebate form or two. If anybody can pick one up, I'd be grateful. PM if you can.

I would greatly appreciate this as well, if anyone would be kind enough to grab a form for me.

[xzafixz]

I can't believe you guys are complaining about not getting MIRs on top of 50% of the price of those anywhere else, this is an awesome deal, take advantage of it, and shut up about no rebates.

[Josef]

I was at Coconuts this morning (Kirkwood Hwy, Wilmington, DE) and they had the rebates. I didn't pick up any of the Simpsons seasons because I already had them, but I did get Lost In Translation for $9.99 after $5 MIR.

[agapens]

Well, I picked up seasons 1, 2, and 3 today at Coconuts. There was a 5 dollar MIR on each but he had to ring each one up individually to get it. Weird. Also, I tried to get Best Buy to price match and after a long huddle with the managers they said they wouldn't. Apparently, even the 14.99 price is 10 bucks below cost. I think its pretty crappy that wouldn't follow their BOLDLY WRITTEN POLICY, but whatever. Coconuts was 6 stores down so I didn't bother fighting it.

[cruzincontrol]

Can't price match at BB?!?!. Looks like I have no shot at getting this deal since they are gone already.

[silliemutafuka]

Damn I just bought season 2 from Target 2 weeks ago for full price...dammit!

Thanks alot for this, I'll go pick them all up!

[dd_mcdoodle]

I got season 3 at The Wall at the Tysons Corner, VA Galleria mall, they still had plenty there, so if anyone lives in the DC area, they have them there.

[jimbodan]

Yeah I would really appreciate a rebate form or two. If anybody can pick one up, I'd be grateful. PM if you can.

Same here!

[magus83]

Well I just went to fye to get the simpsons season 2 and 3 in the galleria in puoghkeepsie, NY, and they said they had no $5 rebate. So I actually went to Best buy and asked if I could buy the dvd's there at full price and come back tomorrow to PM and get the extra 10% off. The people at the customer service were really cool, he was like yeah you could do that but its not encouraged. I guess it all depends on what type of people are working there.
However, I just decided to PM the dvd's at best buy and got them for $15 each over there instead of getting them at fye. $15 is still an awesome price for these.

[guyver2077]

why didnt you jsut by them there at the fye???

[sman113]

SPECS is a TWEC-owned store, and they had plenty of rebates when i went today.

[sman113]

also might be easier just to purchase the seasons on ebay for cheaper.

Now you know that guy bought all 3 at FYE today and is trying to turn around and make a quick profit.

[xzafixz]

Uhm... sman113, $75 is NOT cheaper then the 50 dollars you spend at FYE, what the hell are you talking about?

[bluetoast]

Well that's Buy it Now, you still have a chance at getting it cheaper than $30 or $45, but, I'd rather just go to the store.

[rimsforsale]

Viva la Simpsons! 10 years and running strong!






sorry brain fart.

[xspeedracerx]

Price match it at bestbuy, they have it so if you buy 2 seasons of simpsons, futurama, or family guy you save $10. so thats 2 seasons of simpsons for less than $20.

Wait, didn't that promo just end?

[xspeedracerx]

its says its good till the 19th in the weekly ads

[rocksolidaudio]

Here's a link to my scan of the Coconuts ad to help with PM'ing. I'd be shocked if Best Buy said 'no' to this. The other one was kind of shady, but this one is quite obviously a legitimate ad. Pick up Spider-Man too while you're at it, the included free pass for Spider-Man 2 makes the deal pay for itself.

[xzafixz]

I Don't think you could double dip the price match + promo, unless you were extremely lucky, if so i bow to your skills.

[rocksolidaudio]

I don't know what kind of double-dipping you're talking about, I'm just saying you'll have a lot better chance of getting the $15 price PM'ed at BB or wherever with this ad than with the one without a name attached.

[agapens]

I had the actual Coconuts ad with me --not a printed copy-- and BB STILL said they wouldn't PM. As far as price matching is concerned, I think this will very much be YMMV.

You didn't raise enough hell, corporate policy states that best buy HAS to price match, just look at those big signs everywhere in store. Raise enough hell and you'll get it. Try CC too they also price match. If the manager gives you shit, just go over his head, I'm sure they have a number to call if you have a problem.

[BustaUppa]

Anyone hear about the reason for this crazy sale?

The cashier at coconuts seemed to know all about it; he claimed that Sony "made too many copies" and that stores are now trying to get rid of them. Didn't sound quite right to me, but I didn't think twice about it as I happily purchased seasons 2 and 3 and got 2 rebate forms with no hassle at all.

lol, on the way to work I kept thinking "I gotta get on the non-gaming deal forum right away and inform people of this wonderful deal!" Clearly, I was far from the first to know...

Unfortunately, I think the manager can choose not to price match. There was a thing on the fatwallet thread, and there is a manager's perogative. Basically, the price was too low for him to match (at BB). Maybe CC would be better.

Well, I just called my FYE and the lady said they had a whole bunch left becuause they ordered a helluva lot of em in anticipation of the sell. So, I doubt that's the reason.

[Larsin]

On the FYE website, only season 1 and 3 are on sale. :(

[ -edit- ]
The reason why season 2 isn't on sale is because they only have the subtitled version, which costs more. Bastards.

[Bigsauce]

If you have a Meijers near ya, you won't have to worry about managers. They just take the flyer, put it in the bottom of the drawn and that's it. Most of the time the kids don't even care if it's printed off. It might work otherwise you'll have to drive to FYE and get it.

[Matrix2k3]

thanks for the heads up everyone. just bought 2 and 3 at coconuts and got the rebates. Great deal!

[yeahokthenfu]

The guy at The Wherehouse told me that they are selling them in anticipitation of Season 4, so sounds like the employees are making assumptions for this good deal

[vanlandw]

i am still debating just getting them...i have all the seasons downloaded...but that is a really good deal....

[DerangedHermit]

I picked all three up earlier at the Coconuts in Shirley, NY. The rebate was there.

[ElwoodCuse]

Saw plenty of copies of the Simpsons (all 3 seasons today), but here's an even better deal: seasons one and two of 24 for $20 afer $20 mail-in rebate. It will cost you more than $20 just to rent all the discs; this is well worth it.

Question on this rebate for anyone else: it says send UPC from the box. My box had a sticker UPC that the clerk scanned. Underneath this sticker was a black sticker, and underneath THAT was another UPC on the actual box. If I just send the sticker, I'll still get my $20 back, right?

[Admiral Ackbar]

Since a lot of people (including myself) asked...

I picked up two extra rebate slips today at coconuts. They're basically the size of small 3x5 index cards. Send me a PM and I'll mail them out to the first two people who need them.

Also, the simpsons season 1 and season 3 are available at fye.com for $15 each. Oddly, Season two still lists for $50. But you can order the first and third set in case you don't have a coconuts, strawberries, fye, or warehouse near you.

Rebates are taken.

On a side note, at Coconuts they were giving out free condoms. Or at least, when I pulled the package out I thought they were condoms. It's the Icebreaker mini's. The oned from that commercial with jessica simpson. The packaging is just like a condom wrapper. I was increadulous for a split seacond until the labeling registered with me.

[lordopus99]

check again. fye.com still has them for regular price

[Admiral Ackbar]

Wow, it changed between our posts.

[ElwoodCuse]

Where did you find 24 season 1+2 for $20 after rebate? Linky?

Don't know if this is online too, I saw this B&M. They were out front on the Box Set Special shelf, and there were price tags all over it--$69.99 normal tag, SALE $59.99 special tag, and underneath it on the shelf was a sign that said 24 Season Two $39.99 PLUS $20 mail-in rebate. Same deal with Season One.

Damn i will have to check again this week, they did have season 2, but it was $60 'on sale' with a $20 mail in. I couldnt find a $40 sign tho :(

I did Pick Up simpsons season 3 for $15 and Indiana Jones Trilogy WS for $45 with a mail in rebate for $20.

EDIT: No Rebates for Simpsons at my store.

[spidey]

Anyone have an extra rebate slip for the Simpsons Seasons? The cashier gave me the rebate slip for the other sets (24, Band of Brothers, Rocky, Sporanos, Indiana Jones, Godfather, Honeymooners, Scarface)instead and I didn't think of checking it before leaving the store.

I'd go get it myself but the closest FYE is about an hour and a half away.

PM Me. Thanks a lot.

[b3b0p]

when does this end?

[spidey]

when does this end?

AD scan on first post states that the offer is valid from 6/13 to 6/19. Typical one week sale.

[jimbodan]

So do all the FYE's now have the rebates in store? Or is this still YMMV with the rebates?

[godhatesjustyou]

hey guys, after ordering the 3rd season online (for 15 dollars!) i noticed that i entered my address wrong, i forgot the 'e' in "maxine". do you think it would matter? since they hafta check the credit card (which is to the same address), wouldn't it arrive normally?

[ryan838]

alright, thanks.
