New Labels at Sam Goody

So I walked into Sam Goody's today, looking to purchase Angel Season 3. Upon seeing it on the shelf, I went to the cash register. The clerk looked at it, and told me he couldn't sell it to me because it wasn't the release date yet. Apparently, Goody is now printing the release date on labels.

Sigh. Guess I'll go to FYE.

Did you ask the clerk the obvious question of why it was on the shelf?

Sam Goody has always printed the release dates on the labels, the same as Suncoast. If it's a new release it will be in the lower right hand corner of the label.

Drex -

Yep. Asked him. He said "Someone must not have been paying attention."

Like I care. Just give me my Angel fix! Will be trying 2 other FYEs and a Sam Goody tomorrow

Rob,

I've had success finding things early at Wal-Marts before, but not in Super Centers. I'll check a few tomorrow as well.

Good Advice

Thanks for the advice, Rob. Picked up Angel S3 yesterday at Wal-Mart.
