I'm wondering the same thing. If I remember correctly, Wave 3 was priced at 24.99 a piece. Hopefully we can get the same for this wave.

Edit: Looks like that's the price they already have on BB.com, so I don't think they'll go any lower than that.

I want Carnivale pretty bad, but even with the Madden coupon this set is more than I really want to spend. Looks like I'll be hitting up half.com or ebay for a better price in the coming months... I would be okay with paying HBO's rather high prices if the episode count was a little higher, but $79.99 is absurb for 12 episodes. $55 or so would be much more reasonable...

Yeah, that price pisses me off, too.

HBO set it at a MSRP of $100 like "The Sopranos." And it's only pretty much a cult show, so it doesn't warrant any kind of deep discounting on the retail level.

It's disappointing because I would think that a lower price, like with an MSRP of around $50 to $60 might actually encourage people to give it a try based on its cult status.

I hope the longevity of the series isn't dependent on DVD sales.

I need to find a good way to spend my $25 digital dollars before they expire soon.

One of the Disney Treasures would be perfect but I see that Amazon already has shipped them to me (and they were only $20.78 each after STL and no tax or shipping added).

What did you guys who got the DD from the Seinfeld gift set spend them on?

the digital coupon is good for anything at Best Buy, not just DVDs.

That said, I'm sure that you could find something to spend it on and just use in-store-pickup.

You could do it on the 3 for $20 DVDs, a few CDs, a video game, or just about anything else.

I wonder if the $5 off coupon from the Sky Captain and the Day of Tomorrow preview DVD would stack on the 3 for $20 deal. MI and MI2 are among the eligible DVDs for the $5 off.

I seriously doubt it because they would both ring up as package prices and Best Buy's computers only allow for one package pricing.

Did you happen to buy "The Bourne Supremacy" as well. If you buy that, you get 10% off any regular priced DVD. That could explain your price difference.

I went to the Best Buy in Chelsea Manhattan when they opened at 9 AM. I was the first one in there and grabbed 2 Matrix Sets (no bust). I didn't see the Constantine disc anywhere and I asked the CSRs and they were all clueless. One nice CSR (Asian guy) looked up the Constantine sku on the computer for me and it showed that no stores in the NY area received the disc. It was $4.99 on BestBuy.com. I asked the guy working the DVD section and he said sorry you can't get it cuz we didn't get any so you're SOL. The guy was a complete dick.

When I went to go ring it up, the Loss Prevention Guy (Mgr?) told the cashier that no NY area Best Buys received the Constantine disc and to tell customers that they should save their receipts cuz they could get one when they come into the store. I told the guy that I was the guy who pointed it out and he said that he knew and thanked me for it. He also apologized.

*WARNING - Manzana, dont read!*

There were TONS of that Contstantine disc at my BB, but I didnt buy the set. I did however use all my McD bucks and damn was that a hassle. They would only let me use 3 per DVD, but since I had ten, they let one extra count. Than the computer wouldnt take it, and blech! After the 15 min hassle, the end was worth the means. I picked up:

Gargoyles - Season 1 ($15.99)
Bourne Supremacy (9.59)
Dodgeball (9.59)

I picked up a constantine disc and took it to the register with dodgeball and bourne, It rang up a 0.00 even though I didnt buy the matrix set. Watched it and looked pretty cool!

Ravenous, I read your message anyway and those discounts didn't bum me out (in past threads I was only bummed about not being able to PM and use the 20% off coupon as you could). Today I didn't even want to PM at BBY because they already had the lowest prices. (Now tomorrow may be a different story with the Fry's ad where I wouldn't be surprised to see the Ultimate Matrix set on sale for under $42.)

There were very few people at opening at 9 AM at my BBY. I went straight for the Disney Treasures which weren't on the shelves where they should be, but I found about 6 of each set sitting on a cart. That's about how many they got in stock last time. I grabbed the Pluto and MM Vol. 2 sets (the MM Club will be the first Treasures I'll skip -- even though they might sell for $100 on eBay in a few months). Then I got the Ultimate Matrix and Constantine bonus DVD (which has nothing to do with the Matrix, I guess). I wasted about 10 minutes looking at other things (didn't buy anything else) and not a single person went for the Disney section or for that cart looking for the tins.

I was worried the 20% off coupon would be denied on checkout since I had over $100 worth of stuff, and the cashier (some guy I'd never seen before) spent a lot of time reading the back of the coupon. I thought for sure he'd say "it says it's expired", but he then scanned it once. I said in the past they've had to scan it once for each DVD, but he said once was enough and it applied the 20% off to each DVD.

I didn't need to rebuy the Matrix movies (I already have each on DVD), but for $42.39 I caved in. I opened mine in the store after buying it to make sure all the discs were OK and present. I checked the tins too.

So I'm actually happy with how things worked out at BBY today (at least for the moment). Since the Ultimate Matrix Gift Set only added a Neo bust (wow, I've really got to have one of those) and an 80 page booklet, I couldn't see the point in paying extra for those.

eau, did you get the Ultimate Matrix set with the 20% off coupon too?

This is true? I haven't seen that advertised anywhere. How long will the Supremecy be at $14.99? How long for the extra 10% off another disc?

The 10% off was part of BBs' ad this week. And, it only applies if you buy the Bourne Supremecy.

Only trouble is(at least it was for me) is that you can't use the 10% off against a DVD in their current ad. I was trying to get MASH S7 and the register didn't take it off. I thought my PMing BS to Fry's $13.99 price had caused me to lose the 10%, so I tried to get an adjustment @ CS. After 3 tries(ring-ups) @ CS, I was told by a manager(voiding one of my ring-ups) that the 10% only applied to REGULAR priced DVDs - not SALE $ DVDs. Didn't matter that my receipts showed the $ for MASH as being REG $29.99. Poor cashier, I was there for a good 30 minutes trying to get this accomplished. Ended up not getting MASH because discount wouldn't work.

Anyways, the 10% off is good for the week of the sale(ending Sat.).

eau, did you get the Ultimate Matrix set with the 20% off coupon too?
I didn't. I'm still deciding if I should upgrade since I already have all 3 DVDs. If I upgrade, then I have to decide on the regular or the LE /w bust version :p

Thats cool man. I actually had alot of trouble using the coupon today. The chick didnt think they could take it, called a manager, and the manager was like "uhh yea, weve been taking it for awhile. You called me over just for that?" Meeeooow!

I saw the treasures today, not too many copies, ill be getting them at Sams.

Used the madden coupon to score a great deal on Gilmore Girls Season 2 and 24 Season 3. I have one more left, i'm pretty sure it will get used next week on the ROTK Extended and whatever else. This coupon has been a lifesaver the last few months...

MASH 6-7: $47.92

I was shopping at BB today and they had flyers posted in the DVD asles about buying 3 DVDs and get 10% off all 3, excluding new releases and special offers. Not sure if it's a national deal or when it expires.

They also had 10% off when you buy 4 CDs.

Btw, I got the Ultimate Matrix Collection Limited Edition for $71.99 after the Madden coupon.

I was surprised to see this too, picked up M rather than order it online like I was planning. If BB sold more Criterions at this discount I'd buy through them more often. It's more than at dvdplanet.com but I don't like dvdplanet's prices on it's other titles so I can never get to the magic 3 dvds for free shipping.

Is M going to be $28.99 regularly, or is it on sale this week. I saw it on Tuesday with a $28.99 sticker, but didn't have enough money to buy it then. There was a sign under the DVDs that said good from 12/5 - 12/11. Is the price going to go to $34.99 on Sunday?
