[quote name='Saix_XIII']I think when Sunday rolls around if you just go to the BB site and sort the BR by price.

Here is a link to all the $9.99 movies. It's actually the $7.99-9.99 price, but sorted high to low.

Here is a link to all the $10-$14.99 movies sorted by low to high.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='KJ.West']I find it strange they don't accept porn. Porn costs a lot more than Hollywood movies.[/QUOTE]

Not in "used" condition.

[quote name='WV Matsui']Yeah cheaper the BB route as they would all be $45 total[/QUOTE]Sorry, it was $40ish last I checked. The uk set does include 3 extra disks fwiw.

Compared to the US set, yes, but if he's buying them individually, those discs come with the individual releases.

3 amigos never was $9.99. It has been $12.99 all along.
 
Was going to pick up a few more movies today but got denied for the HD DVDs I brought in. Guessing it is a store to store basis since my closer one accepted them.
 
[quote name='Masterkyo']Picked up 4 more movies today! Forgetting Sarah marshall (Bluray/DVD combo), The Killer Inside Me, American Beauty, pride and prejudice (Bluray/DVD combo) for $21.XX :)[/QUOTE]

do you have a link to the version of P&P that you bought?
 
Picked up "The Departed" today now that it's not on sale for $7.99 so I could apply the coupon to get it for $4.99.

Looked for the $0.01 Game of Thrones DVD, but couldn't find anything but a preorder keychain. Does anyone know where to find these? Do they come in a sleeve or a DVD case? Sorry, but I'm not sure what I am looking for.

A super-slim case.

The blu-ray version, next to a normal blu-ray:

[quote name='WV Matsui']Hmmm might go with that then and just return my one I picked up today. Even though I have a $25 cert. I have $50 in Amazon credit.

Link crush?[/QUOTE]

Amazon credit doesn't work with Amazon uk
 
Does BB sell the Blu-ray triple features that Target is advertising this week? If so, what is the price, because I can't find them on BB's website. I'm going to be checking tomorrow after work.
 
where do i take the dvds? customer service or do they have a section that does trade ins in the movie section just like the games?
 
[quote name='slickkill77']Amazon credit doesn't work with Amazon uk[/QUOTE]

Well my mind is made up now then! Haha
 
Picked up few more Blu-ray movies today :)
Serenity (Blu-ray/DVD combo)
Apollo 13 (Blu-ray/DVD Combo) 100the Anniversary version
The Good, The Bad, and the Weird
The Incredible Hulk
U-571 (Blu-ray/DVD Combo)
In Bruges (Blu-ray/DVD Combo)

Also, Picked up 7 DVD's at Blockbusters for $0.99 Each. After i done watching it i'll trade-in at BB :)
 
Did In Bruges go back to 9.99, then? I tried to buy twice yesterday at two different stores and both times, despite being listed at 9.99, it rang up 7.99 and they wouldn't honor the higher price.
 
Can anyone recommend The Good, the Bad, the Weird and say whether the Blu-ray is good? I'm a big fan of Eastern films and it seems like a really fun movie (kind of like Crazy Stone, to which it appears similar in tone), but I'm unsure if I want to get it on DVD or just spring for the Blu-ray.
 
Sorry I'm sure this has been asked a million times, but I'm asking it again. Do the $5 coupons stack? Like Can I use 2 coupons on a $10 blu-ray?
 
[quote name='diplo']Sorry I'm sure this has been asked a million times, but I'm asking it again. Do the $5 coupons stack? Like Can I use 2 coupons on a $10 blu-ray?[/QUOTE]

Nope. Best Buy would lose a ton of money if that was the case.

its probably pretty ymmv to have Best Buy pricematch and apply the coupon.
 
[quote name='4tygames']Nope. Best Buy would lose a ton of money if that was the case.[/QUOTE]

Ha, you're right, I would've unloaded almost my whole DVD collection if that was the case. Thanks. At least the coupons don't expire right away right? You can wait til certain Blu-rays go on sale?

The coupons expire the 28th? I thought the 28th was just the last day for trade-ins for the coupons.

no, the coupons are only good for the duration of the sale, no longer.

Aw shucks, that changes a lot. Thank you everyone for your help.

In Bruges (Blu-ray/DVD) combo is $7.99 but it drop down $4.99 after trade-in. I hope it drop down $2.99 but it rang up $4.99 instead :(

Were you actually able to get it at the $4.99 price? I thought only blu-rays $9.99 and higher qualified. If you did get it at $4.99, was it after a manual override, or did the system automatically adjust the price?

I only ask because I've been wanting to get the movie "Glory" the past 2 weeks, but it was one they changed from $9.99 to $9.75, so my understanding was that it no longer qualified for the trade-in sale.

I only known the cashier (customer service) rang up all the movies & scanned the coupon 4 times & hit the total. Thought i got In bruges for $2.99 after i looked up the receipt it was $4.99. I can't complain much :)

The sad thing is that I WAS able to get Glory with the coupon. They were about to close and it was marked $9.99, so when it rang $9.75 the manager approved the coupon, probably to get us out the door.

Before even reading your reply, I stopped in this morning and they did the same thing - they adjusted the price so I got it for $4.75. Apparently other people had questioned the same item, so they were instructed to adjust the price if anyone asks. Probably still a YMMV depending on local stores.
 
Picked up Clash of the Titans (2010). Had a $5 reward certificate to use too, so got it for $5. That's about the right price for it.
 
This is still what I want to pick-up before the program is over.

Van Helsing
Cinderella Man
Kill Bill 1 & 2
Real Steel
Fast and the Furious #1

The sad thing is I might have to go through some of my 4 year-olds movies to find a couple of more to trade-in.

just get some dvds at the dollar store.
 
Grabbed Scarface LE for $10 - 2 coupons left, no idea what/if I want. Well, I know i want Good Bad and the Weird but no stores around me have it.

Yea. I wanted the Fast and the Furious #1 but it's the only one not on sale for $9.99 :cry:
 
Completed my Harry Potter BLu-ray collection tonight, with the exception of Deathly Hallows Pt. 2. Will wait until it goes down to $10 for the next Trade/Save :D

Anyway, the DH pt. 1 copies my BB had were shrink wrapped. I've had some bad experiences with shrink wrapping, so I was a little reluctant to buy a copy. The slipcovers they had were kinda fucked up,being bent and all, but I was satisfied that I was able to get a slipcover regardless.

I'm done.

Yeah I hate having to pay $9.99 for that one after the coupon but I also hate not having the whole set.

HP movies are going into the vault, so I wouldn't bet on seeing them at the next Trade/Save, assuming BBY exists that long.

Good point, but I always assumed HP was too big a cash cow to be locked away by any company, much less Warner Bros.

Even if they are put away, there's always Ebay, I guess.

They're releasing a new set for Christmas 2012, so they're probably locking individual copies to sell the set for people missing just one movie. That's my guess, anyways.
