I went to my local WM and noticed every dvd had been re-stickered with a 3.99 sticker. The price on top top of the bin had also been changed to 3.99. This is right after they restocked it with a bunch of new titles, so there were some good choices. Good luck.

That would make sense though. Every week Circuit City and Best Buy have a good selection for like 4 or 5 bucks, and those same lousy 5.50 movies at walmart never go down. It was a great price back in the day, but dvds have came down a lot in price in the last few years.

Holy Schnike!!! Did the sign at your WM used to say 2/$11? Hopefully this will a nationwide effort.

2/11 vs. 5.50 is store discretion.
2/11 is intended to drive sales by encouraging people to think they *need* to buy 2 (which isn't the case, as we know)

it's funny to think that something not worthy of a $5.50 purchase is suddenly great at $3.99 !!!!

I saw The Best of He-Man in the bin last week at my local WM. I can't pass it up next time at $3.99... it's a flippin' 2-disc set with collectible cards!! :)

Still $5.50 in the Charlotte, NC area. I did see some new $4.88 Universal titles today.

It must be really hit or miss, because I checked out the bin today, and the new titles they added since I was there last are also marked 3.99. Someone else must have this. I don't think it's just one WM in the entire country.

Saw a rack of the ones mentioned on here but in the Raleigh area they still come up as $5.50. There was a new set of $4.88 dvd's though.

Man, I had my hopes up -- not so much the $3.99, although that's awesome, but more that there would be a new batch of titles in there, as I've picked through the Wal-Mart $5.50 bin so much I know there isn't anything in there I'm after anymore. Too bad nobody except the OP has had such luck so far.
Oh well, if it's happening it will make its way around eventually...

Still $5.50 here in Fresno. They didn't have many of the dvds shown, but I did some Dreamworks DVDs like Road to Perdition and Minority Report *both were full screen* and some new MGM ones *ended up getting To Live and Die in LA*. Did pick up three of the Paramount $4.88 DVDs.

Yea, I was just there yesterday and it was marked 2 for 11 as usual. I did see the brand new $4.88 bin and picked up a DVD. Then I saw the lines...........oh well. It'l be there next time I pick up some groceries.

The closest Wal-Mart to me is remodeling and moving a lot of things around. The $5.50 bin has disappeared.

That's clearance stickering. The department manager (or possibly store manager) probably decided to do that just to clear out the bin or get rid of non-returnables. You are probably quite alone in this.
