That’s All Folks!

Make sure you read the Store Notes Section At Top of Thread. A few secrets in there this week!

Contact Me if You Need me…………..

Speedy1961

[bdw418]

Thanks a lot, speedy!

[Dabaomb]

thanks for the prices Speedy!

This is the week to pick up House and Las Vegas with the Buy 1 Get 1 Free sale :up:

[purplechoe]

THANKS SPEEDY!!! CC has been kicking BB's ass as far as dvd prices for a while now...

[bluetoast]

Thanks Speedy. Might check out Curb, or Ali G.

[lordwow]

Ugh looks like I jumped the gun on Knight Rider and House :(

Anyway,

Price on MVP NCAA looks sweet, might pick that up.

[Ghostface180]

Thanks for the prices! Too bad I bought the Block Party soundtrack back in March or else the package deal would be decent.

[SFranke]

That Rush: Replay x3 deal has me scratching my head. By your wording Speedy, it sounds as if you could pay $25 for just the set, or get another Rush item [whatever it is] and get both for $5 less than the set by itself.

By the way, I checked out BestBuy.com for info on the exclusive disc. It contains live versions of Limelight, Tom Sawyer, The Spirit of Radio, and Closer to the Heart.

[dpz301]

thanks speedy, as always.

looks like i might get block party at best buy with the CD instead of just the movie at CC.

[Dabaomb]

rebuy and return...not a big deal.

[dman988]

I'll probably pick up the Word's Fastest Indian and Saving Private Ryan at Best Buy. Thanks speedy!

It's not actually my wording however. I used what the BB copywriters used and put any thoughts I might have on the matter in italics.

Pink Panther Classic Cartoon Collection >>>> $9.99 ****


Hi Speedy. Which set is this? The only set I know of by that name (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0009S4J2I/dvdtalk/qid=1149558868/sr=8-2/ref=pd_bbs_2/102-1277217-2493760?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance&n=130) has a $70 MSRP.

Edit: Ah, I see. It must be one of the individual volumes of that collection ($15 MSRP each).

[mifuneral]

Thanks speedy. Pretty boring week, but that works out fine considering the Barnes & Noble sale. :) I think I'll get Chappelle show but since I don't care about buying the soundtrack I think I'll just get it from Circuit City.

[SFranke]

It's not actually my wording however. I used what the BB copywriters used and put any thoughts I might have on the matter in italics.
You're right, Speedy. I've been viewing your weekly ad posts long enough to know both the format and your attention to detail. The deal mentioned was strange even going by Best Buy's standards. Anyway, thank you for your hard work.

[billz]

Thanks for the info. Is there no listing for the Princess Bride SE?

[Vipper II]

Wow, these weekly prices threads seem to get posted earlier and earlier every week. :)

By chance, do you know of any deals on non-portable DVD players?

Thanks a bunch!

Thank you very much, as always.

Somebody mentioned in another thread that Best Buy would have a bonus 3 episodes with the new Beavis and Butthead set. Any mention of that anywhere? Thanks again.

THe ad states a Bonus Disc containing a sneak peek of Volume III.

[Simpson Purist]

I find it odd that Guild Wars Factions costs less than Auto Assault, but you get Auto Assault for free if you buy GW Factions. :whofart:

Definitely going to be all over Knight Rider's Season 3 + 4 to complete the collection!!!

[Eric D.]

Thanks speedy for doing this every week! I really appreciate it!!!

[dollfins1]

oh my, coach...one of my favorites! will either get it here or ddd wherever the price is best. as always thanks for the ads speedy :)

[Novasonic]

Could someone explain the pink panther cartoon collection deal to me? In the ad, it looks as if you can just buy that for $9.99 without getting anything else. It can't be though, because it costs like $50 or 60 normally. Here is the link: http://bestbuy.shoplocal.com/bestbuy/Default.aspx?action=browsepagelarge&storeid=2413044&rapid=280681&pagenumber=15

I interpret it as being $9.99, but it seems way too low. My best buy doesn't even carry the pink panther cartoon collection anymore. :(

[flashburn]

That Rush deal really makes no sense. Buy the DVD set alone for $25 or buy both it and the cd for $20. I guess I will be picking up the cd then, even though I don't even want it.

Looking at the ad it clearly shows the complete collection. Maybe I'll try to price match to another store if my local bestbuy doesn't have it

[BKenn01]

As always, hats off to Speedy. got online early this morning and did store pickup on everything I wanted.

I can't find any evidence that there IS a Rush Replay CD sold separately. I almost wonder if they didn't mean for this to apply to the John Fogerty DVD and CD which is below this ad copy. These are priced at 14.99 and 9.99 so 2 for $20 would seem about right for a combo deal. If so, it's spectacularly bad ad design but it certainly wouldn't be the first time....

Yeah, I just realized that. I am guessing it is for the John Fogerty dvd and cd.

Re-examing the ad, I'm inclined with you two guys.

I'll change the text in the original post to reflect that.

[speedy1961]

Please post here about your experiences with the Pink Panther cartoon if you try.
