Holy crap, LOTR EE for $8.99 each?! Looks like it's time for me to get these. Thanks Speedy!

Wow at the prices for the extended editions. Makes the $40+ I paid for them back in the day seem funny. Entirely worth it though.

Thanks as always, Speedy.

PS: Isn't there a "super duper special edition" of 300 that comes with a mask and everything, like BestBuy did with 'V for Vendetta'? Is that going to be BestBuy this time around again?

I did. Aren't those considered XBL accessories? I get 2 of them for $19.99 x 2 - $20 = $19.98 + tax.

Incredible prices on the LOTR EE editions.

SoonerDoc
07-23-07, 10:07 PM
I am pretty confident that the LOTR sets are NOT the four disc set special editions. I was in walmart today and they have the three sets of movies in extended edition packaging that looks almost identical to the 4-disc set packaging (does not have any picture on the front like the previously released 2-disc extended edtions). It said extended edition, and these were 2-disc sets and they had them for 14.99 each....

What region is the copy of the ad that you release every week? I'm wondering since some of the prices you mention w/o rebate have rebates on the edition that is released in SoCal. Thanks.

If I am right (and that is a big IF...), you are going to have a hell of a hard time pricematching for the four disc sets, if everybody is advertising the new 2-disc sets in their ad (BB, CC). They are going to know that the advertised sets are the new 2-disc, not the 4-disc (unless you can clearly see the 4-disc wording in the ad picture).

I have NEVER questioned speedy before (and he knows that), but it seems to hard to believe that CC and BB would have these on sale so cheap, the same time I see a never before seen set of 2-disc LOTR discs that look identical to the 4-disc sets in WallyWorld.

Speedy, can you see the words 4-disc extended edition on the picture in the ad? I will try and snap a pic of the Walmart sets tomorrow.

Understandable. But Best Buy's is 12.99 I think, not THAT great of a deal, but it may be the 4-disc. Even if BB's is the 4-disc, CC should pricematch it and beat it by 10%, making it roughly $9.

Again, it's a big 'IF' like you said, but Speedy has the 4-discers, and he says that is what looks to be pictured in the ad. I'll trust him and take the chance.

Which is why I post this little disclaimer at the bottom of my Store Notes section up top:



From time to time special deals / prices will be listed in the Store Notes Section & the in the product price thread that may or may not be available in your specific geographic area. This is due to Regional Market Variations of the nationwide ads that I post and as such, not all deals / prices will be available in all Circuit City stores.

No worries SoonerDoc. To me you are one of the most valued members here.
I'm wondering if New Line has re-issued these sets in slim cases.

I can see the words "Special Extended DVD Edition" at the bottom of each case shown and which can be seen in this picture:

Do the 4-disc sets say '4-disc' on the spine? If they do, it's probably new 2-disc sets we're getting for a bargain, and not the 4-disc ones.

The LE's are on BB.com for 19.99, while the 4-disc ones are 22.99. The ad states save $7 off of 19.99...so it doesn't look good if both stores have these new LE's on sale. Of course, I'm assuming.

Yeah, I picked up a 1 year Live card and 5 of the 1600 point cards yesterday before I knew for sure if the deal was stackable. I figured I could always return the extras if I had to. I'll have to stop back on Sunday to get the price adjusted. I would've picked up a few more of the 1600 point cards, but I wanted to leave some for other deal hunters. If there are more when I go on Sunday I might get them then. :)

if your referring to the old xbox live cards from the original xbox, then your answer is yes. I tried it when toys r' us had them on sale for 20 bucks. Still wish I would've bought them all.

Or if for some reason you mean the xbox 360 live cards, then ofcourse you can do it.

FYI for everyone looking at the $20 off 2 1600 XBL point cards. Those particular items are not ringing up as part of the package deal and they also don't show they apply online. You'll have to be persistent if the CSRs don't price adjust each by $10 on their own. I got four from CC and went across the street and got 2 more from BB.

Thanks, speedy!

They of course had none at the CC I went to and upon checking their online inventory no store in a 50 mile radius had any either. The manager special ordered 8 of them for me and he had to manually override the sale and apply the discount.

Just got back from CC and they don't have the newer 2-disc on sale. It is like pictured in the ad. The older 1-disc release with the award series gold slipcover. Hold out for the 2-disc. I got it at Target a while back for $10.

I managed to pick up all of the EE 4 disc LOTR DVDs. The store only had a total of 3 sets so I was glad I was the third person there to get them. I also picked up the 2 disc The Last Samurai and the Godfather trilogy. I also grabbed Dune 3 disc as a gift for a family member. I was also going to get Windtalkers director's cut but it was ringing up at $14.99. They had it in the bin with several of the FF editions which apparently was the only one included in the sale. I also discovered that the Memorex DL discs were $39.99 instead of $12.99. I'll pick some up on Black Friday again, but they rarely seem to be below $1 per disc. Thanks to Speedy for supplying us all with these ads.

07-29-07, 01:58 PM
I was at my circuit city 1 minute after the store opened and someone had already snatched up the two 1600 points cards they had in-stock. The manager would only special order 4 (company policy according to him, was to special order only 5 items at a time). It took them about 30 minutes to figure out how to do the order.

Afterwards I went to best buy and they had a whole peg-full of them, I'm not trying to be too greedy, so I got them to price-match 4 of them. It was my first time price-matching at best buy and it took them all of 3 minutes to figure out how to price-match an ad that wasn't even theirs.

That's bizarre. Did they give a reason? It is pretty black and white in the CC ad.
I went to BB and could not get a PM either. Stated that they didn't PM "package deals" and that's what this was.

My points adventure yesterday was pretty interesting. I woke up pretty early and checked CC.com where the discount wasn't showing up, so I ordered 2 cards from 2 different locations for in-store pickup and figured I'd get them to PM down the price when I picked them up.

I get to the first location, and the CSR can't figure out how to adjust it, after three people trying and finally getting the manager, he said that this is not an accessory and that the ad was misleading, in that the points aren't actually part of the deal. I had him cancel the order, but not before getting their corporate number to file a complaint.

Drive across town to the second store, and the CSRs there can't figure out how to do the override either. The manager comes over to do it, and pulls my order.. Only 1 card pulled. :( He goes to grab another card from the shelf (of course there are none), so that order had to be cancelled as well. I got a $24 GC out of it, and used it to buy a 4000 point card for about the same 50% discount.

When I got home, there was a message from the first store that said the manager had changed his mind, and if I wanted the points to come back to the store and he'd adjust the price. I ended up getting $90 worth of points for about $50 (They charge tax for some reason, even though I've never been taxed on points cards at BB or EB).

They would not honor the ad at my CC for the 1600 points card, they said the ad was misleading adn would not ring up that way. Gave me the same BS that it was not an accesory, yet when it rings up it clearly stated game accesory. hen they try to give me a line of crap of that it meant if I bought a card and say the headpiece that it would work. I will for sure file a complaint since the ad is either truly misleading or exactly the way most of us interpert it.
