For those that were speculating, I can confirm that the program will be starting up again on 7/15/2012 and running until 8/11/2012. Just like last time it will be good for ANY blu ray 9.99 and up.

There was a note in the terms of this promotion that this time around if you visit the best buy mobile dept in the first week and do a free upgrade check for your cell phone account, it will entitle you to one trade and save coupon for the $5 off a blu.

Now, here are some commonly asked questions.

1. How does this work?

Basically, you bring in a DVD to Customer Service and they will give you a $5 off Blu-Ray coupon. Pretty simple.

2. Can you use it on any Blu-Ray?

Only on Blu-Rays $9.99 and up. Previously, music Blu-Rays have been excluded, but everything else is game.

3. Is there a limit of coupons you can receive?

5 per day seems to be the limit.

4. When does the coupons expire?

Last day of the promotion (8/11).

5. Do multiple disc DVDs = multiple coupons?

No. If you trade in a TV show season boxset = 1 coupon, not 3 or 4.

6. Can I trade in ANY DVD?

Naturally, they won't accept DVD-R/RW's nor will they accept pornos. So, no trading in Wii Like 2 fuck Part 3.

7. Can this be applied to past orders?

No. At most you can do a return/rebuy, but you would have to pay the current price so it may not be worth it.

8. Do I get the coupon back if I return the Blu-Ray I used a coupon on?

YMMV. Rule of thumb, be sure you are content with what you're getting before you use a coupon on it.

9. Do the DVDs I trade have to have the actual artwork and any inserts?

YMMV, but unless you get a real douche at CS, most won't care as long as it's in a case. (Generic DVD case will do)

10. I'm low on DVDs, any suggestions?

Dollar stores and places like Big Lots will occasionally carry $1 DVDs that you can get to trade in to Best Buy. Garage sales work as well if you can find one that is selling DVDs on the cheap.

11. Do coupons stack?

Nope. 1 coupon = 1 Blu-Ray purchase. Of course you can use multiple coupons in one transaction if you are purchasing the same amount of Blus.

[quote name='bearkiss']no, that was a couple of times ago...

the last time they did allow music blu rays! it was the time before they were specifically excluded and mentioned on the coupon they gave you when you traded...[/QUOTE]

truth ^

Beginning with the last time this sale happened, music blu's are allowed.
 
[quote name='WV Matsui']If you can find one yes[/QUOTE]

Is that the one with different artwork and an hour of bonus features? If so, my store has like 15 of them.
 
Made A good size list of some blus and their sku's that may be $5 after coupon (prices are from the website currently plus added in MI:GP and Ice Age which should be on sale)

Thanks.
In for "The Patriot".
And maybe "MI4: Ghost Protocol", "Wanted", and "Black Hawk Down"…
And then maybe "Seven", "Robin Hood: Men in Tights", and "Gamer"…
Decisions, decisions…
And I really wish that I were a Silver Rewards Member so that I could price match my Batman Steelbooks…. :cry:
 
-bows down to the list of $5 blu-rays-
My wallet weeps but you pretty much made the selection easier.
Guess I'm definitely expanding my blu-ray collection the rest of the month.

Just a quick note, and it might have been brought up already... but when I was in store today I was looking over the movies, the Batman Begins Steelbook 9.99 tag had an end-date of 7-14. So, I'm not sure if that price will hold once the 15th rolls around. :whistle2:k

No problem figured it'd help someone if they dont really know what they want. If anyone wants me to add any or make any fixes just post them and I'll edit it in. Also I omitted a lot of the titles I thought were garbage and I'm sure I missed some that probably aren't.

Here's a link to the (currently) 9.99 titles
 
[quote name='iduncurr']Has anyone been rejected for having blockbuster stickers on the DVD cases?

I'm too lazy to peel them off.[/QUOTE]

I've been rejected for having blockbuster cases (no stickers).

Thanks shockandaww for the awesome list.

I'll have literally 9 titles to either pricematch or return/rebuy. I haven't opened them yet but I need to find the receipts and some more cheap DVDs to trade in. There are also a few movies on that $5 list I want to buy. I'll have to make a few trips thanks to the 5 at a time rule.
 
Some of the price adjusted...(500) Days of Summer went up to $14.99...The Godfather 1 and 2 went back up to $19.99...so ShockandAww's list isn't up-to-date.
 
Horrible Bosses for 7.99
Fox and the Hound for 12.99
Collateral for 4.99
Planes Trains and Automobiles 11.99
Unforgiven 4.99

That will be my first wave. My second, I'm getting Get the Gringo and then probably save the coupons unless I find something in-store. Might give Walking Dead a try for 14.99 for season 1. I'm a little disappointed that Black Swan went up to 17.99. And too bad non of the other steel-book are on sale, just the Batman ones which i already have.

FYI True Grit( Coen Brothers) is $7.99 this week. Lowest I've seen it

I was going to return the Blade and Blade Trinity blurays I bought for $9.99 and then rebuy new ones with the upgrade and save promotion. I just remembered I bought those blurays using one of those "$10 off promotional coupons" for doing a $50 in-store pickup.

Am I correct in assuming that if I try to return those blurays, I'm pretty screwed? I wont get back the credit from that coupon?

Probably not, ask to do an exchange and apply the coupon on the new purchases (assuming you are buying 5 blu-rays at once)? Just explain the $10 coupon bit. If not they can just refund the $20 onto a new gift card...which they do if you claim you no longer have the gift card you use on the purchase.
 
Add Spawn, The Bodyguard, Parenthood, and Kick-Ass to the list of Blus for $5 after coupon.

You are awesome, thank you.
 
Anyone find any good deals in conjunction with the Universal 100th Anniversary $3 off coupon? I remember during the last upgrade and save I bought Apollo 13 for $1.99 and Fast Times at Ridgemont High for I believe around $4.99.

So far I've found:

$4.99 (after upgrade and save and universal coupon)

The Sting - http://www.bestbuy.com/site/The+Sti...id=59226&skuId=5430611&st=the sting&lp=1&cp=1
American Graffiti - http://www.bestbuy.com/site/America...&skuId=5759066&st=american graffiti&lp=1&cp=1
Do the Right Thing - http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Do+the+...kuId=19802416&st=do the right thing&lp=1&cp=1

$6.99 (after upgrade and save and universal coupon)

8 Mile - http://www.bestbuy.com/site/8+Mile+...id=2336991&skuId=19781722&st=8 mile&lp=1&cp=1

The nice thing about all of these Universal 100 blu-rays is that they also include a DVD copy.

I think To kill a Mockingbird standard edition would also be $6.99. It's tough finding the Universal 100th anniversary blu-rays on Bestbuy.com because the artwork is usually incorrect. It seems like a lot of titles are $12.99 or $14.99 though, making them $5 or $7.

Pro-tip: If you want to know how to get the Universal 100th Anniversary $3 off blu-ray coupon, google "Universal 100th Anniversary $3 off blu-ray coupon" and follow the steps.

It sucks that it only lets you print out 2 coupons. I'm doing the "extreme couponing" bullcrap and using multiple computers because I already printed 2 coupons during the last upgrade and save promotion.

Mine should be updated already I went through and did it last night. If you put all 9.99 titles in though your list would be better. I omitted some I thought were junk. Thanks for the work!
 
They had a crap load of the exclusive mission impossibles, in both 9.99 spots. Coulda fought about it but just got the 2 disc. Also picked up raging bull for $5, never seen it so
 
Just got back from my trip to Best Buy. I ended up doing two upgrade & save's and one upgrade check of my cell phone. Ended up with the Dark Knight steelbook, Batman Begins steelbook, and Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol for $4.99 each. No go on the 3-disc Best Buy exclusive of Ghost Protocol. It wasn't ringing up on sale and they wouldn't adjust the price. They said it's a special version not included for the $9.99 sale. Either way, the regular version is well worth $5.
 
I looked on their website and a few notable new titles are:

Red Riding Hood
Unknown
Hall Pass
127 Hours
Love and Other Drugs
Final Destination 5

All $5 after coupon.

Those "$4.99 after coupon" lists are helpful (thanks for posting them), but it would help me more if I knew which of them (if any) are BR+DVD combo packs; unfortunately, I'm heading out the door so I don't have the opportunity to check for myself.
 
So I was able to get Matrix, Black Hawk Down, The Bourne Trilogy, and MI4. They did price adjust the MI4 to 9.99 but the coupon didn't take 5 off, I think I did good though, thoughts? Also is the Bourne trilogy worth 25?
 
I was able to get the 3 disc Mission Impossible: Protocol. Initially it rang up as $29.99, but I was able to get them to bring it down to $9.99. (well, $4.99 with coupon) I didn't see any regular versions of the movie there, so maybe I got lucky with it.

Was also able to score V for Vendetta Steel book for $4.99 because they had no regular copies left.
 
Even with the $5 list, one should check if that title is available at their Best Buy.

The Fifth Element and The Patriot were two titles I really wanted from my collection but alas not available in any of my nearby stores. I'll keep an eye out for it when I head in at 10 but I won't hold my breath.
 
[quote name='poopants']All of my cases were the blockbuster ones...hell, they opened them, looked to see if a disc was in there, and handed me a coupon.[/QUOTE]

Alright thanks!
 
Here is my haul:

Battlestar Galactica Season 1 ($19.99)

Battlestar Galactica Season 2 ($19.99)

Battlestar Galactica Season 4 ($19.99)

Blade II ($9.99)

MI:GP 3disc ($9.99) Had to price adjust.
---------------------------------------------------------------

Then I used 5 trade and save $5offs -$25 Then I had them price adjust again to compensate the $5off for MI:GP.

Then I used a $10off that I got for the special they had with store pickup deal. -$10

Then I used a $10 rewards certificate. -$10

Then I used a $5 shopkick reward. -$5
---------------------------------------------------------------



In total I paid $29.95 plus tax.

Have I ever mentioned that I hate Best Buy? Well, I do. Here's my experience:

Look for 5 Blus. Grabbed: Incredible Hulk, Mission Impossible GP, Babe, Frequency, and Stripes.

Went to CS to trade in my DVDs. All good so far except she won't take one of the $3 Universal Coupons for Babe. It was one coupon or the other I'm told. Ok I'll put Babe back and get something actually worth $5 then. So I get Goodfellas BB Exclusive.

She then rings me up.

Her: $54.xx please.
Me: Umm no. This should be $25 plus tax.
Her: Well Goodfellas is ringing up $20 and Hulk is $15.

(I dont know where the other extra came from)

She shows me the stickers on the blu ray cases with the ridiculous prices.

Me: Ok, that's fantastic but all the movies I have had labels by them showing $10 each. They're all $9.99 before the coupons.

Her (into her headset): I'm going to need a price check on Goodfellas. Is there a label that shows it's $10?

Apparently there is and she looks defeated.

Her: Well ok we'll override it but it should be $20.

Me (thinking): Gee, thanks for your gracious hospitality in honoring your own sticker prices! /sarcasm

She has the "mobile team" pull the $9.99 label off of Goodfellas since it's apparently an old label.

Her: Ok Hulk is ringing up for $14.99 so that one's $10 after the coupon.

Me: Ok, no. It's in your ad. It's $9.99. ALL of these titles I have brought to you today are labeled $9.99 (this is the second or third time I tell her this)

Her (back on the headset): I need a check for the Incredible Hulk...

She looks at the ad, and then says well the one in the ad has a green label.

(this is true, it does. Mine has no green label)

About 10 minutes later, they finally bring up another copy of Incredible Hulk. This one is $10 the "mobile team" guy says.

IT IS THE EXACT SAME AS THE ONE I ALREADY HAVE.

They place my identical copy aside and ring up the one the "mobile team" guy had brought up. Obviously he is trustworthy and I am a scummy liar. His copy is superior and legit. (They did an override to make it $10...)

So now I'm already pissed and she rings it all up again.

Her: $34.xx

Me: NO. It should be $25 + tax.

Her: Oh, I forgot to take Babe off. That'll be $25 + tax.

Me: Great thanks.

Some other douche bag: Who is your mobile phone provider?

Me: Umm, US Cellular.

Other Douchebag: Well we'll go ahead and do it this time but next time know that this promotion excludes US Cellular.

Me: Wow ok that is news to me I've heard or read nothing about that being the case. And what other cell phone providers are excluded from this promotion?

Douche: I think it's just U.S. Cellular and T-Mobile.

Me: Ok thanks I'll look into that it seems pretty odd...

So that was basically it. It took literally 45 minutes to get this done. Is there any truth to this promotion only being available for certain carriers?? I'll read into that but it seems like a bunch of bs. They just didn't want me back there from what I could tell.

Admittedly I wasn't thinking and quite audibly said "f.uck..." the third time she got on her headset, but this was after half an hour had already passed.

Whatever, Best Buy: You Suuuuuuck. Thanks for the Blus though.

TL;DR: Best Buy is the devil but I got what I wanted from them after 45 minutes of waiting and arguing.

Edit: To be fair, there was one cool guy that worked there. He checked for The Butterfly Effect for me. He went in back but came back empty handed and informed me it doesn't release until Tuesday. Thanks helpful red lanyard guy! Sorry you work with a bunch of douchey morons!

Picked up the following today:

Heavy Metal
Batman Begins - Steelbook
Dark Knight - Steelbook
The Matrix
From Dusk till Dawn Collection
Prophecy Collection

The Matrix was ringing up 19.99 (even though tag and ad said 9.99) so cashier overrode it to 9.99. The coupon didn't work when they did that and I didn't notice until I got to the car. Went inside, got a little slack over the $5 price adjustment from the lady at customer service. Manager overheard and came over and said it was fine, overrode it, and gave me my $5.

Will probably clear out some more old DVDs and get some more blu-rays in a week or so.

Thanks for posting this!
 
Anyone try PMing the Barnes and Noble Criterion sale? I'm curious to see if it would work - it would be great to get some 14.99 criterion blus

If it's like every other sale they've ever done, you'll be able to PM, but they won't let you mix the coupons with it.
