Million Dollar Baby BF deal?
Anybody remember seeing this? I've already been out once this morning and had to stop in at work to finish some stuff up, but I'm gonna go back out again in about an hour. I could have sworn I saw Million Dollar Baby for around $8 somewhere on sale today, but now I can't seem to find any threads about it or locate what other site I might have seen it on. Anybody come across this one or am I just getting daffy and losing my memory as I approach 30? Thanks.

Could be a YMMV but I noticed a week ago that several Walmarts in my area were dumping those "bonus DVD, book, etc" versions for a flat 9.96
Quite a deal for someone wanting the bonus DVD's for some of them.
I picked up The Aviator bonus DVD, Alexander bonus DVD and Oceans 12 bonus DVD - I returned the factory sealed movies a day later.
There were others but they had T-shirts, books or bonus movies that didn't interest me.
I definitely saw Million Dollar Baby with the bonus book.......

Oh, and I nearly passed out in astonishment when I saw Million Dollar Baby in WIDESCREEN with the book @ Wal-Mart.

Since they are packaged together, don't they have a separate UPC stuck on the back (for the combo pack), so if you returned just the sealed movie inside they would not be able to match up the UPCs on the receipt?
I'd do what you did if I thought this would work, but Walmart lives by the UPC. Every time I've looked I've seen different UPCs for combo packs, so I never tried.

I was never questioned on where the "other" disc was on any of the returns, they simply scanned the receipt, scanned the disc and gave me my money back.
Hope that made sense.
