All store exclusives and freebies - 10/05/08 to 10/11/08
These weekly threads are for the posting and discussion of that particular week's store exclusives and freebies.
These lists will likely be incomplete until Thursday or so, since DVDs are released on Tuesday and one of us needs to visit all the stores to confirm things.

Volunteers needed: I regularly go to Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, and Walmart; but don't visit the other stores every week. If you work at or regularly go to the FYE/TWEC chains, Costco, Borders, K-mart/Sears, Barnes and Noble, Blockbuster, Hot Topic, or any other store that has DVD exclusives; We'd appreciate any updates you could give us.

"Sleeping Beauty" is being sold with a freebie "snack box" (a.k.a. mini lunch box) at Pathmark supermarkets here in NJ. Saw a big display full of them, with Disney graphics describing the promotion. Reminded me of a similar "snack box" given away with another Disney animated title from earlier this year, which i found at Stop & Shop supermarkets. Might be a recurring grocery store thing, not exclusive to any one particular chain.
Hmmm... I wonder if that means I may have missed a similar item for "Little Mermaid III" a few weeks ago... er, anybody recall seeing something like that?

One 2 to 3 minute scene from the film (Tink trying to find a better talent than tinkering and exploring water talents), a song montage that may also be from the film, various character intros that may be snippets from the film, a game (a series of questions to determine which fairy you are most like), and trailers for each of (1) the film, (2) the online Pixie Hollow fairy environment, and (3) a Nintendo DS game for Tinker Bell.

Wicked Lake has no such "exclusive" wording on the sticker. Are we sure it is a BB exclusive?

Yep, I bought one. But there is no "exclusive" wording on the package, on the shelf tag, or in the ad. So I don't think it is a store exclusive. Might just be limited to the first print run of the DVD.

Can someone shed some light why Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer is posted for 8.99 and 24.99 on best Buy's website.
Is the 24.99 the one that comes with the exclusive additional dvd?

BB's website is crap. Sometimes they have adequate exclusive information/listings, but usually not. You're rolling the dice every time you order exclusives from them.

As a follow-up to my post above, I will add that I found the same "Sleeping Beauty" mini lunch boxes being given away with purchase of the DVD at a local Stop & Shop supermarket (in addition to Pathmark). Actually quite nice. Anyway, just wanted to make sure this made the list.

I'm sorry about renewing this old post, but I'm trying to know if the best buy lithograph of Sleeping beauty wich was given away with online order is the same as Disney store. Thanks

I'm not sure, but I would guess that they're different. Possible other sources for you to track down this info would be Disney forums, or maybe the Sleeping Beauty threads here.

i think disney usually does four (?) lithos in an envelope, while bestbuy/circuit city generally has one litho, framed in a cardboard matte.

Yes, I guess you are right. I noticed the same, but never seen a picture of the Best buy litho. Only Disney Store's one around. Thanks for your answer.
