Time to find $1 DVDs

Only found a few blu-rays that I wanted last time, hopefully I have more luck this time as I have a box of 30+ DVDs that just sits in my house waiting for this program to roll around.

Just in time for ET and the CM Punk Blus. Awesome.

That is most definitely not true. No store HAS to take any coupons you give them. They get reimbursed for them so from a customer service standpoint it makes sense for them to take them but they don't "have" to.

Just in time for Cinderella!

I had some scratched kids DVDs, Dollar Tree DVDs, and stuff I just plain don't want anymore waiting for this one. Depending on the price I'm grabbing the E.T. digibook, Little Shop of Horrors, Red Dawn, and Madagascar 3 w/ polka dot afro (kid's Christmas, will probably have more fun with the wig but oh well). I also wanted A League of Their Own, but found out it's Amazon exclusive.

Of course I'll be grabbing some $5 Blus. Hopefully they have $5 movie cash ones this time. Taken 2 should be there at least.

That's what I came to say. Hopefully they aren't lame and price them at $14.99.

Yes! My favorite

But every once in a while you can find a seller on Craigslist who isn't overvaluing his collection and can pick them up for $1 a piece... and condition won't even matter since you're flipping it anyway.

Woohoo!!! I've been saving up my Shopkick bucks for this! MovieStop, here I come!!!

Actually, they do. If they're a retailer of the product and it's a manufacturer coupon, they're required to take it. They're reimbursed for it, so they lose nothing on the deal. If it's a store coupon, that's another matter, as it is money they're losing on accepting it.

Awesome news - and great timing too!

I'm hoping to pick up some new releases that are coming out during this sale window, assuming they aren't cheaper elsewhere:
Prometheus 3D
ET
The Great Mouse Detective
Pete's Dragon
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 7

Also, I might nab a few Disney/Ghibli movies I'm missing from my collection (Treasure Planet, Home on the Range, Castle in the Sky, & Whisper of the Heart) if they're cheap.

Looking forward to the new $9.99 lists too!

I understand. I've used 1 manufacturers coupon and 1 best buy coupon successfully at least 15 times. Several of those times I had to say what you said about the "1 manufacturer coupon, 1 BB coupon policy" and that the store will be reimbursed.

I've also been turned down at least 15 times. This happened at the same stores that accepted them before. There were just different employees and different managers present. Sometimes I've had the store manager straight up lie to me and tell me that they don't ever get reimbursed for manufacturers coupons. I just drive to the next BB store instead of arguing and burning bridges.

Anyone wondering how the heck I even managed to do it successfully at least 15 times should know that I've bought a lot of blurays during every single U&S except the very first one. I used many coupons from coupons.com and I used many many many Universal $3 100 year coupons.

At three different BB stores, I couldn't get them to apply the Descendents coupon and the U&S coupon. Off the top of my head, I remember I got it to work for The Crow, Mimic, Apollo 13, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, The Sting, Babe, American Graffiti, American Pie, Casino and Parenthood. Ninety percent of the time that it worked, I still had to convince the BB employee that I wasn't breaking any BB policies. In my experience it's been easier when I'm spending a lot of money on a lot of movies and not just buying cheap $1.99 blurays.

Only 2 weeks this time? Didn't the last one go for 3 weeks?

Since Best Buy is just recycling these...it doesn't matter if I trade in UK locked region dvds?

I Hope they have more of the 9.99 movies in stock this time around.
My cousin Vinny most specifically.

I guess it's time to prepare for the question:

"I don't understand. So I can trade in *any* DVD? Or does it have to be the same title?"

I love it when the OP on these UaS deals explains literally everything, yet this question pops up no less than three dozen times. It almost gets to a point where I SWEAR it has to be trolls just asking the question to annoy. Anyway, looking forward to this sale again :-)

Blockbuster is having a 50% off sale, I was able to find some $1.00 and .50 cents DVD's there.
