This is the last week for U&S I think =(, I still have at least one more trip this week along with what ever I pick up next week.


[quote name='Scorch']Definitely in for WM28, maybe a few of the 4.99 movies.[/QUOTE]

People still watch wrestling, I used to love it but when I watch it now I cant get into it.

that's interesting. well if anyone was going to pick up Couples Retreat, it's already on sale this week for 7.99. so you can save yourself an U&S coupon and pick it up this week.
 
[quote name='WV Matsui']Bridesmaids worth a blind buy?[/QUOTE]

I thought it was pretty freaking funny and the lady loved it, for 8 bucks I'm grabbin one. Make sure you like hangover type movies though, definitely that type of humor.
 
Definitely getting Bridesmaids. On the fence about Fringe S1-S3. Already seen them all and not sure if I'd watch them again.
 
May snag Friends with Benefits... Really good movie - and Mila Kunis is F.I.N.E., fine. Sucks that my $5 copy of Couples Retreat from the U&S last time was NOT a DVD&DC copy. I'll probably grab Bridesmaids and Knocked Up out of the lower priced tiers to close out my movie shopping this time. I am really waiting for Star Wars BR to go on sale. That's why I spent my time last week buying all those $10 games at Target and trading them to BB :(
 
Looks like Underworld 3D, Bridesmaids, and maybe Fringe. I agree with WingsDJY about not knowing if I'd watch Fringe again. I have trouble watching serialized shows more than once.
 
[quote name='FlamedLiquid']Nothing on Tim & Eric Billion Dollar Movie? :([/QUOTE]
I'm amazed they're still around. Wish they'd bring back Space Ghost than keep paying those idiots.
 
Will pick up Underworld blu for $15 bucks after upgrade and save. Any confirmation that this promo ends this week? I was hoping to do the same thing for Chronicle next week. Could I exchange a dvd for the $5 coupon and then use it next week?
 
[quote name='crazedracerguy']May snag Friends with Benefits... Really good movie - and Mila Kunis is F.I.N.E., fine.[/QUOTE]

Could not agree more. There's at least one excellent outtake that brings out my inner perv :bouncy:

Oh, and for those that are interested in the Underworld Collection, Amazon already has it for $39.99 so there's no need to burn an U&S coupon. It's also $39.96 at Walmart.

You might be able to do better on the BR of Chuck S5.

Currently BB's website shows a preorder for this at $26.99 (yes I know this is the DVD price above but the BR on BB.com shows this price as well). You can set it for release day store pickup to avoid shipping.

Hoping to be able to go in pick it up and have apply my $5 Upgrade & Save coupon to it making it $21.99.

YMMV of course.

I do still watch wrestling, although WM28 was pretty bad. The Taker/HHH match wasn't nearly as good as last year's.

Oh, that's nice! Just canceled my Amazon order. Thanks!

Interesting - Amazon shows that the set will be two discs. Best Buy is saying four. Possible exclusive discs? I don't think so, I think it's a website error, but we'll see.

Agreed I am sure its an error ... probably the same case with the pricing but ehh I am happy to save $$ where I can.

Now to find some free blank DVD cases so I can trade in a ton of titles (i keep the DVD in a binder, artwork in a folder, and toss the case to save space but now I need the cases to trade them in LOL).

Greg[/QUOTE]It's not an error, as BB has done lots of pre-orders at prices cheaper than expected for pre-orders, then raises them when the item comes out.

You may not be able to double-stack the $26.99 price and the U&S coupon unless it's $26.99 at release. Since the ad says $34.99, then you'll probably be paying more with B&M and the U&S coupon.

I don't see why you couldn't. People have done it before. I'm going to try it. Worst case scenario, I pick it up on Amazon (where it's $33.99, but I still have a $10 GC).

Not saying it won't work though it may be more of an issue than it should be.
 
[quote name='WV Matsui']Bridesmaids worth a blind buy?[/QUOTE]

Watched it last night for the first time; it's a bit on the long side but one of the best movies I've seen this year. Possibly the best all-girl-based movie ever made.

The white guy from The IT Crowd having a big role in it was an added surprise bonus for me.
 
Dances with Wolves 20th Anniversary Edition & Bridesmaids Unrated (includes DVD and Digital Copy) both for $13 plus taxes next week ;)

Uhhhh......what? LOL Did you watch this year's match? It was freakin epic!
 
Please forgive me for not doing much research aside from BBY's website, but this upgrade coupon, I can get by bringing in any commercially released DVD?

So page 1 of this 2 page thread is too far to travel for your so called research? Everything is fully laid out in the OP....

The OP, which is the same language copied from BBY's website, says to bring in the original DVD, which could mean the DVD of the title you want to upgrade to a Blu version. It doesn't say bring in any DVD for any Blu, which is what I'm trying to clarify.

Thank you for clearing that up. Now to go through those old DVDs!
 
Some good stuff there. The highlights for me are Bridesmaids for $8 (BR+DVD+DC), Madagascar 1 and 2 $6.99 each and (I think) come with cash to see the third one, not sure on the DVD/DC either/or on those two (the release date says 5/6 and no other info).

Also $5:
Apollo 13 (BR+DVD+DC)
Kick-Ass (BR+DVD+DC)
Hot Tub Time Machine (BR+DC)
Predator 2-disc
Dances w/ Wolves 2-disc

I'm trying to keep myself at a 5-title limit this week, but it'll be awful hard not to go back and grab the three $5 movies I don't grab Monday later in the week...

And if I hadn't spent so much already, John Adams and Generation Kill would be mine for $20 apiece after U&S.
 
Wrestlemania 28, and Underworld 3D this week. I really want to watch HHH Taker again. That match was damn good!
 
[quote name='ssjmichael']Hellboy II is part of the J&R's 2 for $12 sale if you're interested.[/QUOTE]

already have Hellboy II on blu, but thanks.
 
for those interested... yogi bear, imax: humble, deep sea, under the sea, green lantern, and legend of the guardians all 3D is on sale for $19.99. how to train your dragon, kfp, and megamind 3Ds are $22.99. good time to use them coupons
