^^Same here. My math is simple, if I know I'll watch a movie more than 3 times, I'll buy. 4 x $5.00= $20.00 (approx.) the 5th time means I'm ahead. But there are a handful of titles I've watched only once...and I blame this thread...j.k..:)

I agree.
It is basically the same movies over and over again that are on sale.
Lets hope this years holiday season brings new offerings to Blu Ray sales.
Yeah...and it's gunna start getting expensive starting in Sept...a LOT of good titles being released

Not sure if this has been posted.

Apparently a new HD edition of Stargaze has been released with images of space. Retail is 24.95 but Amazon has it for 14.95:
Amazon.com: Stargaze HD: Universal Beauty [Blu-ray]: HDScape: Movies & TV (http://www.amazon.com/Stargaze-HD-Universal-Beauty-Blu-ray/dp/B0018LX9ZI/)

free shipping with prime or $25 worth of stuff.


I saw about 5 minutes of this on their sampler disc. It's breathtaking.

A definite blind buy for me.

Sounds like a good NF rental to me. :)

I agree, movie selection and deals are terrible lately.

The lack of blu ray deals as of late is depressing :(

Not only that, but I am disappointed that alot of the prices have not been dropping as time goes on. There are still launch titles that are priced the same now as they were when they were released. So far warner is the only studio making any effort to drop their MSRP.

^ I have said that before and agree with you now. There's no sense in these first to bluray older movies to stay at the jacked up prices they are. I have yet to see the $20 blurays show up at BB they announced just after the fall of HDDVD.

If you really want to cringe at prices, go to FYE. *shudders*

Amazon added a few title into their B2G1 sale...total 23 titles now (added those fox title) and Jumper as a new release do get in there as surprise....

Yeah, I wish the format war was still on. We would probably have better prices and selection in both software and hardware.

Yeah, I'm hoping for some good deals. We need more B1G1 from Amazon, I'll double my stack to about 100 blu-rays then! :)

I added Juno, Mrs Doubtfire, and Jumper, but the discount wasn't applied at checkout as it normally is with these deals.

Yeah same here, I did the EXACT SAME THREE this AM, and didn't get the discount.

Is there a great place at a great price to get the Planet Earth in Blu Ray, new?

Keep in mind sellers on Amazon's market place may provide a better deal on used Blu Ray titles vs the b2G1 free sale. I've never had an issue using their used sellers (always read through the feedback and ordered accordingly).

+1 I bought Shoot 'Em Up on BD a few weeks back from an Amazon seller for about $18 bucks shipped and all went well.

Yeah same here, I did the EXACT SAME THREE this AM, and didn't get the discount.

I tried 3 different movies, and got no discount either. So I looked at the "see offer terms and conditions" link at the top of the page where the movies are listed, and it says the sale expired in July. I guess that is why the discount isn't applying, but that doesn't explain why they have a current link to an old sale on their page.

I don't post alot, but I do check this thread very regular. I must agree...no good sales right now. I just bought a $1500.lcd from best buy, so i'm waiting on my reward zone points. I might pick up the Godfather trilogy, don't know...would rather be buying The Lord of the Rings trilogy (extended super duper Peter Jackson directors cut) on blu-ray. Oh well....can't hurt to wish.

Same here, so I called Amazon and the girl couldn't figure out why it wasn't working either. So she gave me a refund for one of the discs. Works for me. :D

Speaking of which, what about that bundle pack that includes BE, Wild China and two others? Good deal?

If they offer a $10 rebate on the Transformers DVD but not the HD-DVD I'm going to feel cheated. :(

I've been checking this thread religiously, and no good sales to speak of recently. And lo and behold, deepdiscount throws a massive HD-DVD sale today, and I go right back to buying HD-DVDs again, which I had stopped when I went purple with the PS3. This stuff just is not helping the BD cause.

Same here. I'll have more HD DVDs soon just because of cheap prices.

There was actually a column Best Buy ran back when that they would be offering lower prices since HD DVD was dead. Yeah, right! Not seeing that happening.

If you do get the blu version, you might as well TRY and get a rebate. Paramount may go ahead and give the rebate.

thanks for mentioning the HD-DVD sale. You just cost me another $80. :p

I do hope that we see more Blu-ray sales soon, but I did pick up some titles for cheap at Family Video a couple of days ago. Some of them weren't top tier titles but they did interest me:

(1) Vengeance Blu-ray Disc (787364819997) = $11.84
(1) House of Fury Blu-ray Disc (117119644046) = $14.33
(1) Exorcism of Emily Rose Unrated Blu-ray Disc (043396215214) = $17.30
(1) Tiger Blade Blu-ray Disc (787364819898) = $11.84

With the wave of titles coming in October/November, do you guys think we'll see some aggressive discounting from online retailers?

There are so many movies coming out that I want to buy, but not for $20+............

Anyone get the email about amazon's AMAZING 45% off sale? LOL :rolleyes:

Almost as great as their 3for2 BR sale.....the only thing that would make that sale any worse is if they only had 2 BRs in it.

LOL that's next

I've noticed the Ice Age Bluray Disc is always at a solid $27.95. What's the deal with that? Why is that at a crazy premium? I'll keep waiting for that one to drop.

The biggest problem with these discs is the MSRP. $40?!?!? So when a retailer has a HUGE sale for BDs at 50% off, the're still $20 :rolleyes:

why do you think bluray hasn't taken off?

$15 is my max for new titles, and $10 is my max for catalog. Once these studios realize that pricing is the reason the format isn't taking off and drop prices, I'll buy more movies.

Right now I own two movies - Corpse Bride (free with 5 disc mail in offer) and The Prestige ($12 from Fry's BOGO like a year ago). I'm happy to keep renting in the mean time.

My price point is exactly the same and I also own 2 movies.

Do you have Netflix?

did you not read his last sentence?

I personally just buy new off Ebay, Amazon Marketplace, and also new and used at our MovieStop (Gamestop company that sells used movies instead of games). Blurays have a nice protective coating, so buying used isn't too much of a risk. That way I never pay more than $13 each for a bluray.

You have very unrealistic expectations for a new format, for the most part those are DVD prices.
I will agree the prices are too high I would be happy if they'd drop to where DVD's were a few years back, $20 for a new release & $15 for catalogue titles.

I have around 130 Blu-Rays, many of them bought during the BOGO sales last holiday season.
If it wasn't for Amazon I'd have a lot less than that but their prices are much lower than the B&M.
Between the online sellers price & sales I've averaged less the $20 each for my Blu-Ray movies, I can live with that.
I'll pay a premium for the improved audio & video quality but not a huge premium.

Why don't we here any talk about familyvideo.com on here. I mean they are pretty darn cheap when it comes to blu-rays.

But only suckers pay retail.

I'm willing to pay $10 more for HD, which puts me right at $15.00

Let's get back to the point of the thread. Please post if you have a deal to share. If there is a deal and you want to discuss the merits of the deal...great.

Let's stop of the discussion about LACK of deals etc. That is not the intent of this thread.

collven,

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8892353&st=afro+samurai&lp=2&type=product&cp=1&id=1886748

Also Beowulf is $24.95 @ Amazon.
Still to much for that movie IMO, but it's something. Now to wait for Tower to do their funny BD price matching.

BTW- Borders put a pending charge on my card for the $64 Godfather box. So they might put a hold on it from month to month. So if you use a separate account for online shopping with limited funds, be forewarned.
They didn't do it for the action pack that ships next week or the Halloween pack.

EDIT- It looks like BB killed the deal...right after I got my order in...I was so going to wait until tomorrow morning. Glad I didn't, now to wait to see if they'll honor the price.

I went through all the titles on that site yesterday. The shipping kills it for most of them. Plus I have most of the ones I already want.

The best deals I'm finding lately tend to be on Family Video. Of course I'm still only saving about a buck per title, but you take what you can get in the post-format war era. :(

Anybody else having trouble applying the AUBM8 coupon code on whv? I'm trying to apply it to The Adventures of Robin Hood but it says the coupon has already been applied. Also trying to apply an email coupon I received from them for 15% off and it doesn't work (saying contact customer service). Is this a known problem with a workaround?

FYI, I used the AUBM8 coupon code to pre-order the Matrix Trilogy about 2 weeks ago, if that makes any difference.

Edit: I cleared cookies and temporary internet files and the AUBM8 now works. However I was not able to apply the email 15% off coupon code on top of it.

My order was shipped the same day I placed it and the movies were at my door in 2 days. It's very reasonable to be nervous ordering from someplace that has such a crappy web site. I use a PayPal virtual credit card just in case.

15% off, good until 9/20/08 - WRNA



PS. And free shipping right now for orders over $50

I just updated the deals first page.

I don't think there should be any doubt in anyone's mind how good the format war was for us... the deals these days are HORRIBLE. I'm passing up about 1/2 of the new releases because of pricing.

Also not as good, but in the interest of sharing...

Another WB coupon code:

Buy any 5 DVDs, get a 6th DVD Free! (Equal or lesser value)
Use coupon code WRNA5 at checkout.
Ends 9/20/08

Weird....everyone says the 30% coupon is dead @ Warner, I just used it on 2 orders successfully.

dunno if this has been posted or not...but Frys has Starship troopers for $16.99 in Cali, not sure about other areas though.

Beetlejuice Blu-ray has been removed from the WHV store? I preordered it months ago but stupidly charged up too much and my CC got declined for that one title all of a sudden.

Highdefdigest.com reports:

"Warner has unveiled a new date and specs for 'Beetlejuice,' which will now hit Blu-ray in early October and include Dolby TrueHD audio and exclusive extras."

Goes on to say...

"Previously announced extras include three bonus episodes of the 'Beetlejuice' cartoon series running over thirty minutes ("A-Ha," "Skeletons In The Closet," "Spooky Boo-tique"), plus the original theatrical trailer.

Newly-added to the Blu-ray will be a collectible booklet entitled "The Beginner's Guide to Seeing Ghosts" which includes production notes, photos and more, plus a CD soundtrack sampler with six songs by composer Danny Elfman."

Weird....everyone says the 30% coupon is dead @ Warner, I just used it on 2 orders successfully.

anwbts code is working again for 30% off at Warner's website. I had tried it early in the month and it wasn't working then but is now.

sweet! thanks for the heads up! just snagged risky business, poltergeist, and body heat.

They also have that just announced Holiday Essentials on BLU-RAY at the Warner Store:

Christmas Story, Elf, Polar Express, Christmas Vacation - $55.97 after discount before tax

Nice...Warner needs to put The Dark Knight on their website for pre-order ASAP :D

FYI Xmas Story is DVD quality, no upgrade same transfer.

Nice...Warner needs to put The Dark Knight on their website for pre-order ASAP :D

ha! i wish! their pre-order listing is very weird. for instance: the ultimate christmas story is up, and the release date is 11/4, as is JFK, which comes out 11/11. but the shawshank redemption also comes out on 11/4, and is NOT up.

hoping TDK, shawshank, and the austin powers trilogy show up before ANWBTS expires again.

I thought Shawshank was delayed though?

Can't get it to work on 3 different computers: "Sorry, your purchase does not qualify for this coupon"

Warner actually e-mailed me this code and e-mailed them back that it does not work. No response yet.

Never mind, there was another code on the order. Guess the new code won't override the old one.

Just delete all the items from your cart, you might need to clear the cookies too, reorder and use the other code for the 30%

Since Warner (for logical and completely understandable reasons) doesn't let you "stack" coupons... it would be nice if the cart would auto-adjust to the "best" one if you entered multiple codes. Basically the way it works now is that whatever you enter first is it, everything else will fail unless you delete the first code.

I haven't had to empty my cart or clear cache yet... just so far make sure no codes are already in there.

Simply check "remove" after the coupon, update and enter the new coupon. It works for me

Yeah, that's what I did to get it to work.

Where are you guys even going to change your current orders? I've looked at the MyExpressCheckout and you can only see your receipts... not change the order.

People are updating the coupon in their CART's. Not existing orders.

Well, I believe people are talking about change the coupon while the items still in the shopping cart. You already placed your order, seems cannot change it.

These titles are $19.99 at Best Buy and Target this week.

Any Canadians interested in U-571, Miami Vice or End of Days, Future Shop seems to have mispriced the Action pack that comes out tomorrow at $25.99 - get all 3 for cheaper than buying any of those movies individually. They might not honour it, but I placed an order.

The Afro Samurai Blu-Ray is on sale on Amazon for $13.95 if anyone is interested.Compared to the import going price(averaging around $50-$60), that a darn good price.Picked myself up a copy.

So, I took advantage of the current low prices on deepdiscount.com, and ordered (among other things) the Ocean's Trilogy boxset for $19.98.

Got it today. The outer sleeve and box are red with the HD-DVD logo, but there was a sticker saying "only for use with blu-ray players and drives" on the outer cellophane.

I heard something rattling around inside, so decided to open it right away.

To my surprise, all three cases inside were blue, and the discs are the blu-ray versions! The rattling was broken bits from the inner spindle that holds the disc in the case...no biggie.

This actually isn't a bad thing, since I also buy blu-rays...I wonder how often this happens...$19.98 for the blu-ray trilogy is a sweet deal!

Chris

I just got my Oceans trilogy today too. Mine also in a red box. At the top it says HD DVD and has a sticker that says "For use inly with HD DVD players and drives". Looks like no Blu for me :(... oh well :).

Wow, that's weird.

Looks like you got lucky father!

Of course what we DID order were the HD DVDs. So my order was correct. It's just that I didn't accidentally get the Blu insted of HD :).

Thanks for the heads up Lookatbigern82 (Great name... my favorite comedy of all time!),
I picked up "Dark City" (and "The Office - Season 4" to get free shipping) at that price... I love that movie!!!

I don't know where best to post this, so feel free to spread the news around!

I was on another forum (High Def Digest I believe) and saw an intriguing post. The gyst of it was that apparently Best Buy was having some kind of in-store unadvertised promotion where for ever 3 CDs, DVDs, or Blu rays (any combination) you bought between 5/11/08 and 8/9/08 they would give you $5 Rewardzone (250 points) to your account.

In theory it was supposed to happen automatically and purchased did not have to be on the same receipt so it was cumulative for the ~3 month period.

So... I took the suggestion of the poster on the other forum... logged in to my RewardZone account yesterday and "Contact Us"ed them with a brief "hey, am I elligible for this promotion" note. About 5 hours later I got a nice email saying I was elligible and had been issued 1500 points ($30 worth of bonus money) to my account!

Sure enough, logged in this morning and there were my points.

Definately worth checking for anyone who has been buying a lot of movies at Best Buy lately as it only took me a few minutes to find out I've got $30 coming to me very soon!

anwbts code is working again for 30% off at Warner's website. I had tried it early in the month and it wasn't working then but is now.

Simply check "remove" after the coupon, update and enter the new coupon. It works for me

Yeah, that's what I did to get it to work.

I had to set FireFox's 'Clear Private Data' to clear everything (cache, cookies, passwords, history) in order to get the new coupon to take after inputting the 20% off one earlier.

Worth the effort though :)
Thanks Scubawoman for the heads up!

I'll have to find one more to buy also to get the free shipping ;)

One nice thing about Tower.com is that it seems you can keep their sales in your cart indefinitely. I put Transformers at $22.86 in my cart the other week and just now added a second item to get the free shipping. Saved a bit of money as it's now $23.99.

Also did this before with other movies.

Might have to blindly buy both this and Dark City :D

HDMe2 thanks for the heads up. I emailed bestbuy rewardzone and a couple hours later they responded saying they had added $40 in reward certificates to my account. Very appreciated

Woo hoo! I just got $5 added to my reward zone. I haven't bought many movies or cds lately. I should get five more today because I plan on picking up a cd and Entourage Season 4 (still VERY annoyed there is no Blu-Ray version).

The promotin period ended on 8/9

I bought over 20 cd's and movies during the promotion time period. I sent BBRZ an email pointing this out and I quoted the promotion and asked them to credit my rewards account. A couple hours later I received a response saying that my purchases were eligible and they were issuing me $40 in rewards. I had no idea about the promotion until last night. If I had known, I probably would have bought several more discs, but I'm not complaining, its basically free money to me. :)

Ohhhh L.A. Confidential...would you believe I've never seen it!? :eek:

LA Confidential is a awesome movie. You will not be dissapointed. Im gonna blindly buy dark City as well Ive also heard good things bout it.

HDMe2 thanks for the heads up. I emailed bestbuy rewardzone and a couple hours later they responded saying they had added $40 in reward certificates to my account. Very appreciated

You're welcome. I'm glad I stumbled onto the thread on the other forum when I did, because I had no idea about the in-store promotion myself. I might have bought some more stuff the last few months if I did.

Funny thing, and I'm not sure how to verify it... but I'm almost thinking that some of the "movies" that counted towards my threshhold might have been those penny-Hancock Blu ray discs... because I've been wracking my brain and I can't come up with as many Best Buy purchases as they seem to think I had made over the 3-month period.

Definately not complaining, and since I didn't see mention on here I figured it was worth posting about.

If you log onto your Reward Zone account online you should be able to see a purchase history for that timeframe. And dammit, why didn't I think of buying a bunch of those penny Hancock preview discs?!? :p

Sounds good to me :cool:

As others have said, thanks for the heads up on Best Buy rewards deal HDMe2. I got credited 250 points this afternoon after inquiring earlier today. :)

If you log onto your Reward Zone account online you should be able to see a purchase history for that timeframe. And dammit, why didn't I think of buying a bunch of those penny Hancock preview discs?!? :p

Oh holy hell. If that's the case, and it works...


:D

I bought a LOAD of them. Time to see what all I purchased in that time frame.

If you log onto your Reward Zone account online you should be able to see a purchase history for that timeframe.

I did that first. Unfortunately, it only gives a 90-day window which goes back to 5/28 roughly so I'm missing almost 3 weeks of potential purchases that would have qualified. But basically my purchases have slowed a bit anyway (always happens during the summer) so I wasn't expecting nearly as much as they gave me credit for...

And dammit, why didn't I think of buying a bunch of those penny Hancock preview discs?!? :p

I bought about 16 of those, but 8 of them were actually purchased by a relative with a different account. I didn't want to go too nuts with that, but couldn't resist the penny Blu ray cases for potential future use. IF it turns out they also counted and got me free money that would be THE deal of the summer so far! :)

For those looking into the Best Buy deal, I emailed them saying I bought "multiple" CD/DVDs during that time period and they were able to tell me exactly how many. So you don't have to know before you email them -- frankly, I had no idea.

Well, thanks to Amazon, Ebay, DD, tower, Etc., Best Buy lost my business Many moons ago. So I guess I won't be taking part in the reward zone deal.
I did check into it though. I bought one Blu Ray in June. And I'm pretty sure I did so because I had a gift card.
I'm not compaining. I'll take Daily 30%+ off, over BB Reward zone specials Any Day.
Thanks for the info anyway though.

I bought a total of three DVDs ($16.99, $4.99 & $4.99) and the preview of Hancock ($.01) over two receipts, called them yesterday and they credited me with 750 pts ($15) According to your posts, I was entitled to 250 pts, but for the inconvenience, they gave me an extra 500 pts.

Can't say thank you enough. (Almost like getting the previously purchased $16.99 prison break season 2 for free).

Hmmmm.
I wonder if Amazon will be changing prices for a few days to counter this.
I hope so.

$15 per movie is the UPPER realm of what I am willing to pay for discs... including tax and shipping. If Amazon were to do $15 Fox titles, I may just have to pick up a few. :)

I hope that the quality is a little better than the SD version.

Fox doing ANY kind of a sale is reason for celebration

Did amazon bid farewell to Post-Order Price Guarantee ?:(

no, they'll do it - but you have to contact them, it's not automatic.

I don't know where best to post this, so feel free to spread the news around!

I was on another forum (High Def Digest I believe) and saw an intriguing post. The gyst of it was that apparently Best Buy was having some kind of in-store unadvertised promotion where for ever 3 CDs, DVDs, or Blu rays (any combination) you bought between 5/11/08 and 8/9/08 they would give you $5 Rewardzone (250 points) to your account.

In theory it was supposed to happen automatically and purchased did not have to be on the same receipt so it was cumulative for the ~3 month period.

So... I took the suggestion of the poster on the other forum... logged in to my RewardZone account yesterday and "Contact Us"ed them with a brief "hey, am I elligible for this promotion" note. About 5 hours later I got a nice email saying I was elligible and had been issued 1500 points ($30 worth of bonus money) to my account!

Sure enough, logged in this morning and there were my points.

Definately worth checking for anyone who has been buying a lot of movies at Best Buy lately as it only took me a few minutes to find out I've got $30 coming to me very soon!

Thanks! Emailed them last night, and $15 in reward zone certs were in my account this morning. Im going to print them and use them for Transformers BD next week. BB will have it for $27.99

Family Video is family owned, not oriented.

They still sell softcore porn in-store. Go figure.

You can't beat those prices, though.

no, they'll do it - but you have to contact them, it's not automatic.

Actually, as of September 1st, the post-order guarantee is toast. No more price matching from Amazon.

Is that on everything or just BD movies?

Is amazon.com no longer selling Dark City DC? Doesn't say in stock, or out of stock....

I've heard that from a few sources, but I emailed them a couple days ago when an item I purchased went down in price and they still refunded the difference. Maybe they don't have the official policy anymore, but they'll still do it if you ask them to.

I guess we'll see after this weekend...

"Gather round, children ... it's movie night!"

lol, i know right?

They sound like that type of store but they're not. A few things i forgot to mention

- The free shipping code still works. Its GAMEPRO7. That will save you $1.99 on your order
- I only listed the pre-orders in that post. Theres actually a lot of good deals on blu-rays that have already been released on the site also. We're talking 16-18 dollar range on some good titles.
- A few of the Warner Blu-Ray titles can be had for cheaper on the Warner site. $16.85 vs 16.06. That of course is if you order 2 or more items so you can use the 30% off code, order more than $50 bucks worth so shipping is free, and are lucky enough not to be charged tax. So it really depends on what and how much you're getting whether the Warner titles are cheaper for you on the Warner site.

I guess we'll see after this weekend...

I'll be paying attention as well. I don't mind stores that don't price match other stores, since I shop around and do that work myself anyway before buying... but I do think a store should price-match its own reductions for a limited period. Amazon stopping this practice would make me rethink some purchases that I suspect might drop in price in the short-term.

Man looking over that list of preorders on the last page there are A LOT of good titles coming. :D

I was looking at future blu-ray releases, and was disappointed that the original "The Fog" was not listed at all, I did see the 1982 "The Thing" is coming out which is great. My question is that the UK does have "The Fog" on blu-ray will it play on a US blu-ray players? Being on the new side to blu-ray format I wasn't sure if blu-ray is region free or not.

I'm a bit confused and surprised.
What's going on with Amazon?
Not only are the rumors flowing about the price guarantee.
But along with that, they are no longer even close to being the best price online.
Familyvideo, tower, Fry's, ebay. It seems like Everybody online beats Amazon now.
Oh well, I guess they can't be the best forever.

new c. city flyer has various bds for $14.99.

Amazon has discontinued the 30 day price protection for purchases after August 31st.

I suggest they stop price fiddling. DROP IS A DROP, and not go back up.

I agree it. It's ****ing ridiculous how a Blu-ray player on their site can fluctuate up or down $10-20 per day...or even multiple times per day!

Doh really? I guess I'll be buying elsewhere then. I was always fine with buying at amazon because of that 30 day price protection. Now that they are charging for sales tax in NY and not offering their price protection then I will just stop buying from them. I guess they are now just a book store to me again.

You can still claim for everything bought in August.

It is interesting to watch you guys complaining. You have no idea how good you have it when it comes to buying BDs compared to every one else in the world.

Everyone else? Us guys elsewhere in the world?

I agree it. It's ****ing ridiculous how a Blu-ray player on their site can fluctuate up or down $10-20 per day...or even multiple times per day!

Try $90! I somehow got amazon to honor the price reduction last month on the panasonic bd50. It took two phone calls but they did it :)

Everyone else? Us guys elsewhere in the world?

I was referring to the Americans. Amazon is the only online place in the US that will ship to Canada that I know of. And I look at it as being cheeeep compared to prices up here. I can't think of any sale that I have seen up here since the war ended. amazon.ca which is the Canadian arm of amazon.com never ever has a sale on BD and their prices start at 50% above the American price.

So when I see the Americans complaining that they only have 4 or 5 places to buy discounted disks from and they are some times paying 1/3 of what we are up here for titles I find the perspective interesting. If it wasn't for amazon.com I wouldn't have bought any disks since the format war ended.

Do we really have to get into this again? The cost of living in Canada is DRAMTICALLY lower than the cost of living in the USA.

Who's got the best price for Transformers? I was hoping to pick it up on Tuesday, but not for the $27.99 BestBuy wants.

I think Fry's has it for $25.99

I was referring to the Americans.

You're right, I guess when we (Americans) talk about Blu Ray prices we should always consider the cost of Blu Ray for every other country around the world. I hear Blu Ray's are going for about $75 on the black market in Papua, New Guinea. I should feel fortunate.

Walmart 24.96

Best Buy and CC $27.99

Target $24.95

So I guess the best local B&M deal is to print the target ad and then buy with a 110% price match at CC.

I will just get it at BB because it is closer, I have reward zone coupons, and I hate the single checkout line at CC!

in store the target price on transformers seems to be 27.99. I doubt circuit city will match the online price.

I will let you know if BB price matches it in about 30 minutes!

That wasn't a sale they were having, they just raised all their prices today. Their prices for most blu-ray advance orders are the same or slightly higher ($27.99) than Amazon's now.They were consistantly $1.50-3.00 cheaper than amazon with the free shipping code and no sales tax in states where they don't have a store but they charge your credit card when you order even if it's an advance order. I've been ordering from them the last 3 months, cancelled all my Amazon orders. Now there's no incentive to order from them so I'm back to Amazon.

Yea the price match worked just fine at Best Buy. However, they would only let me use $20 worth of reward zone certificates. It seems that if the total is less than $5 you can’t use a $5 card even if the tax pushes it over $5! Oh well, Transformers Blu-ray for $5.23 seems like a pretty good deal to me! Oh and I bought the original DVD so I still can get the $10 rebate from that! Boy I like it when stores give me money to buy their items!

Saw Kill Bill in my Amazon Gold Box personal quick picks section for 37.99. For some reason the $2 off extra was enough for me to pull the trigger on this.

Also got the new Hulk movie pre-ordered for $26.55 from quick picks ($1.40 off Amazon's regular price).

Also just successfully price matched Target.com at Best Buy by just bringing in a printout of the product description page. As a side note, it appears that quite a few others had the same idea I did to pick up the title over lunch. The store only got 24 in and I only saw about 12 remaining on the shelf. Looks like Transformers on Blu-ray is off to a good start :)

Yes there were a NUMBER of people buying the Transformers Blu-ray. Wouldn’t be amazing if this is the highest selling Blu-ray ever even though it was not released on the same day as the DVD!

BB has Eraser, Undersiege 2 , and Outbreak for 14.99 picked outbreak up today during lunch

Anyone have an idea when the WHV coupons for September will be enabled?

My room mate is looking to get a couple of boxsets (Matrix, Blade Runner) and I told him about my savings...

Yeah, I see it in mine today.
I still get the extra 5% off (not as good as when it was 10%, but still better than nothing (if you're wondering what I'm talking about, just do a site search for Amazon 10% off. It's less clutter than having 10 posts added to this thread to explain it), so I'm looking at $36.09.
I guess at $18 per movie, I may have to bite.
I'd still like to see more reviews on PQ though.

Also do a price list low to high you might find something you like..

Nice find, Eraser is tempting.

all the ppl getting the 5% off are saying "still getting the 5% off". can those of us who jumped on the bandwagon late get this 5% off?
