Braveheart 2 disc SE $5 @ WM!

[MattyP33]

found this one just now at the brunswick, maine wally world. it's not in the dump bin and not in the paramount $5 display (single disc is actually in the display).

this 2 disc SE was in the $9/$13 rack, with a brand new shelf tag dated 12/31/08 at the $5 price, rang up as such at the register, great deal!

that's what this thread is for: http://forum.dvdtalk.com/dvd-bargains/505052-new-5-wal-mart-display-33.html

Thanks for the post OP. I gotta go check mine.

[lee_hero]

Wow!
That's a steal. You didn't happen to notice if anything else on the $9 rack had been reduced did you?

[MattyP33]

well aware of the other thread but i thought this might warrant its own topic. couple of other markdowns i saw were babel to $5 and anchorman to $5

Cool. Thanks for the info.

I will be stopping by the local Wal Mart here shortly. Hopefully they'll have that Braveheart.

[gotrice487]

Thank you for the heads-up. I will definitely check this out

[lee_hero]

Just got back from checking a couple of Wal Marts here in the Memphis area and nothing. The Braveheart SE's were on the $13 rack and had not been marked down. I even took a couple to one of the price scanners and checked.

But, it wasn't a complete waste as I finally found a copy of Believers Unrated on the $5 rack with an elusive mint slipcover and finally found a Scorsese Collection with no floaters!

[Michael Corvin]

Wonder if I should finally bite on this since the 'unannounced' BD was bounced/cancelled.

[jjcool]

This was $5 when it first came out at Best Buy.

I wouldn't have seen this if it'd been in the Wal-Mart thread. Thanks OP. I will pull the trigger since the Blu-Ray has been put on hiatus...

[FangsFirst]

I imagine from how this sounds that it was a local pricematching deal...but maybe I'm wrong, I'd be okay with that.

[project86]

Woooo, found it! Came in the ugly golden "Awards edition" slipcover, but oh well! I've been wanting to buy this forever and don't have a best buy near me.

[melih69]

I went to my local Walmart and it was marked down to $5 but there were oos. :( Well I finally got the Zodiac DC :) Happy about that.

[Kory]

I'll have to check for it when I head to Walmart next. Thanks OP.

I keep seeing people mentioning Zodiac at WM in various threads. What's the deal on that one? Is it in the $5 bin or a special display?

special display--unless you have a store that hates special displays and automatically dumps them into the bin (one near me does that...which is very annoying)

[TheMovieman]

Picked up Braveheart at mine. No price tag but I took it to a price checker and indeed it was $5. Thanks OP!

[BobO'Link]

Nice find! I got the next to last one at one of the stores here. It has a floater (both did) but as I was already in the store and didn't want to go across town to the other one I snagged a copy. I'll check the other store in a day or two (it's actually closer to my house but I was going by the other one anyway) on a "regular" trip just in case.

Update:
Couldn't wait. Drove over to the other WM (1.5 miles) to take a look. 1 copy left and it, too, had a floater. Purchased MASH Season 1 for $14.95 and came home. Opened Braveheart to find the floater was the disk with the special features and had no damage! So... a win/win!

[Paul1957]

Thanks OP! Got the last one at my Walmart.

[vgc]

Thanks, I was able to find one at my Super Walmart. The regular Walmart didn't even have a shelf space for Braveheart.

Wal-Mart also had Forrest Gump (2 disc) DVD also for $5. It was on the $9 side.

[lee_hero]

I gotta go back and check the local Wal Marts. As many that are turning up now it's gotta be a all across the board reduction.

Thanks for the info on Forrest Gump iacon45.
I'm gonna have to check into that one too as I've been holding off buying it for far too long.

[gotrice487]

Forrest Gump too? Wow, now I really need to check this out cause I have held out forever on that

[bigjim25]

Thanks OP. They had 5 or 6 at mine but I got the only one they had with a slipcover :up:

[lee_hero]

Had one Braveheart left, but it was a floater so I passed.
I did grab the last Forrest Gump they had though.

Thanks for the info.

[Abob Teff]

Another "Thanks to the OP" -- I wouldn't have seen this if it had been dumped in the Walmart thread. Going to look for it later this week. Would you believe I still have not seen Braveheart?

[JAYARE]

checked 3 walmarts all were sold out of it.

[cranberries fan]

This maybe going OOP for I can hope a Director's Cut is coming soon.

I maybe one of few who think's that this DvD and one before it is not the theatrical version of this flim.

In some of the big-battle scenes I always thought there was more gore--(( hacking and slashing )).

[wormraper]

we had some at my WM tonight but they were all $9 :( (and yes that's what they rang up as well as marked, I checked)

I seen them also and they come with a GOLD SLIPCOVER OSCAR BOX now.

[melih69]

They change the price b/c they got new ones with slipcover. Old ones were w/o slipcover and were on sale for $5 till they got rid of them.
