The POTC 2 free ticket is only a Best Buy exclusive at this point.

I saw it yesterday in store, it's not listed in the ad. They were on an endcap right near the cashiers marked at $10 for everything on the stand.

I was in Sat. and saw Speed SE in the $13.88 display. I would've picked it up on the spot if it was $10. Or did this sale start Sun.?

Danboy, I believe the sale just started Sunday. The sunday ad has a few $10 titles, but indicates that other assorted titles are on sale.

Lol, sure do, Dan. Brookhurst and Adams. One of the nicer ones in town. Look for Speed on the endcaps near the registers.

How is the "Speed: Awards Edition (2 DVDs)" different than "Speed: Five-Star Collection (2 DVDs)"?
Amazon and DVD Pricesearch only list the Five Star Collection, so I'd like to make sure that this Awards Edition is exactly the same in content.

Manzana, just compared the back of the Speed: Awards Edition I'm looking at now, to the review for the five star edition on dvdtalk and the content appears to be identical.

Heh! I ended up buying Speed for $10, Hellboy (2d SE) for $7.50 and just couldn't pass up the DC of Daredevil for $7.50 (with the cool slipcase) !!
Help, I'm addicted to bargains!!

Are my Targets the only ones that aren't having this sale? :(

One of my local Targets had them on a $13 rack. However, they scanned at $10.

You should try taking it to a price scanner (if you haven't already done so) -- it may, in fact, scan for $10.

I got the Speed 2-DVD edition at TGT for $9.99. They had plenty at the front, but unfortunately every single slipcase had at least a few dings or scratches in it so I took the best of the worst.

Had almost given up on this but found the display at the entrance to one of the registers. Thanks for the heads up.

Yup. I called several Targets about this deal and they said 'we don't carry those movies' (when I asked about crimson tide and EOTS).
So I went there anyways, and sure enough they're at the entrance to the registers.

Didn't think about looking @ registers when I was there earlier. Anyways, I only saw Crimson Tide UR with a sign in front of it showing the $10 price. Didn't see any of the others - EOTS, etc.

Almost bought Speed today, but couldn't think of a reason why I'd really want it.
Is the bonus stuff good?

I don't own it personally or I would give input, but the review describes it well.

I also found them in front of one of the registers at my local Target store. Thanks for the tip!

Cool . . . thanks for the info.
I picked up the new anamorphic extended cuts of Crimson Tide, Con Air, and Enemy of the State . . . glad I didn't get them on release week (I believe they were $12.99) . . . save a few bucks!

I have noticed that a lot of these "revised editions" seem to make their way to price cuts and cheap sales much quicker than an initial release does. Notice the 13 Going on 30 (Fun & Flirty Edition) released 4 months ago and now in a Best Buy $7.50 sale. There just doesn't seem to be much of a demand for most of these slightly modified rereleases and it's worth waiting for a better price.

I had to buy these titles at Best Buy's customer service/return counter because they'd be the ones to call Target on their unadvertised sale. However, the girl behind the counter took my word for it that these titles were $10 each. Not that anyone could get away with saying Band of Brothers is only $20, but something like this can't be too good for business.

Thanks for the heads up on this. Picked up Con Air yesterday at the S Phila. Target. They actually had a sign up on a display at the registers...

You might want to see if these titles are still available shink-wrapped with the Pirates of the Carribean 2 ticket in them at Best Buy first. You could then price match target's price after purchase.

Success. I got one of two Crimson Tides left with the ticket on it. PMed at the customer service counter with no problems (she didn't even call Target, just took my word).

bump for anyone that might've missed this. Prices are probably good until Saturday.
