What was the last CD you bought? - The Sequel

[quote name='IAmTheCheapestGamer']I bought a bunch of the Best Buy clearance music CD's/DVD's/Blu-Rays for between $.49 and $4.99.

I think I spent around $30-35 and I got a ton of stuff for that price.

I got:

Tom Petty:Runnin' Down A Dream(3 DVD's and a CD)-$4.99
Elton John: Red Piano(Blu-Ray and 2 CD's)-$4.99
Elton John Dream Ticket(4 DVD's)-$4.99
Poison: Live, Raw & Uncut(DVD/CD) x2-$1.99
Disturbed:Indestructible In Germany(DVD in CD case) x2-$.49 each
Stone Temple Pilots-Buy This(CD, 8 tracks) x2-$.49
Smashing Pumpkins: Zeitgeist(DVD/CD) x2-$.49 each
The Cars(8 tracks)(CD)-$.49
Bad Company: The Hits(8 or so tracks)(CD) x2-$.49 each
Chickenfoot(CD/DVD two pack) x3-$.99 each
Linkin Park: Songs From The Underground(CD) x2-$.49 each

and more[/QUOTE]

I've been looking for the Linkin Park: Songs From the Underground on clearance but every Best Buy I've been to still has it at full price :/

Did you take it to the register and have it scanned or have an employee check it? I ask because most of the things I've bought have been marked the normal price and only came up as the clearance price once it was scanned.

That's when stuff not being marked right lets you make out like a bandit.;)

Even those Poison sets I bought were marked $19.99 still, so it definitely pays to take a couple minutes and have stuff scanned, since these prices are usually universal once they're marked down.

No, but I just went to the site and did the store pickup option for that, the Stone Temple Pilots cd, and the Weezer cd, so I'll pick them up tomorrow. Three cds for $1.50, not bad at all. :D

It's a hell of a deal when you look at the prices BB charges for CD's otherwise.;):applause:

One of the stores I hit up on Wednesday didn't have anything marked and I asked the one employee to check stuff for me just to be sure. He was shocked and said he's likely to pick up some stuff once he gets done with his shift.

Shit I need to look up their clearance. $1.50 for some albums isn't bad at all.

Wilkes-Barre had a ton of stuff when I was there last week, but nowhere near as much as one of the ones when I went outta town last Wednesday.

They had something like 15+ of the 4 DVD Elton John Red Piano set just sitting there at the one store not marked the right price.;)

What sucks is I think someone musta been stashing stuff up in DC cuz I searched for the Smashing Pumpkins CD/DVD set(Zeitgeist) among other things and it said they had it in stock, but it was MIA completely when I was there.
 
Incubus--If Not Now, When?

Came a day early from Amazon, going to give it a listen or two now.

Edit: After a couple listens while working, I like it. It's a bit on the mellow side for them, but all the songs are decent and have some good vocal work. The single "Adolescents" is pretty indicative of the tone of the album.


Forgot to mention I also bought and downloaded Coldplays 3-Song "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall" EP the other day and like it a lot.

Thank you to whoever brought up the Best Buy music clearance. My Mom did almost all of her birthday shopping for me from that sale (thanks to me telling her about it).:lol:

Got a few $0.49 clearance CDs at Best Buy the other day. (Smashing Pumpkins, Weezer, Nelly) However, I think my last legit purchase was Goblin by Tyler, The Creator. Different, but I like it.

I think I might pick up Bon Iver's album next.

this last week i bought

Alkaline Trio- Damnesia
Christina Perri - Lovestrong
Sublime with Rome - Panic (single)
Sublime with Rome - Yours Truly
 
Last CD I bought was the new Journey CD Eclipse. Of course it is not Journey without Steve Perry but wanted to give it a shot. It's not too mediocre but it's not that great.
 
I've given the new Incubus cd several listens now.

While I like it, it's definitely my least favorite album of theirs. It just needs a couple rocking tracks on it as it's just too mellow. Their other albums are all good mix of mellow songs, mid tempos songs and a couple rocking songs. Even "Light Grenades" which I also though was a step back at least had "A Kiss to Send You Off", "Pendulous Threads" etc. to liven it up.
 
Got in one of my orders today as well:

Corrupted - Paso Inferior
Black September - The Forbidden Gates Beyond
Black September/Winters In Osaka - Hordes Of Flesh And Bone
 
Kvelertak - Kvelertak
YOB - The Great Cessation (Thank you Sneaky, I remember seeing you post in the concert thread about this band so I decided to check them out, so glad I did)
 
Girls Names - Dead To Me
Washed Out - Within and Without
Cults - Cults
Chapel Club - Palace

Bought those and a couple more online just because every song I hear by all of these artists is just brilliant to me. All good 2011 albums.

EDIT: I did not enjoy the new 311 album nor the new Incubus album. The new Sublime with Rome was actually really good though.
 
Oakhelm - Betwixt and Between
Monarch! - Dead Men Tell No Tales
Gigantic Brain - The Invasion Discography
Bumsnogger - ...And Destroy All Those That Came Before Us
 
Nada Surf- The Proximity Effect (US reissue)

Only had a chance to hear the first 4 songs. Liking what I hear so far considering I got the album for under 6 dollars.
