Re: Head's Up: Madagascar 2 $5 off coupon

I saw it too. Note it was for the 2-pack version only, which includes a "Penguins" story (much like Dreamworks did with the Kung Fu Panda/Furious Five 2-pk). The Penguins disc is essentially the launch for the Nickelodeon series coming in March.

The question now is, will the single and 2-pk be the same price, as they were for KFP at many places, or will the 2-pk be $5 more, so the coupon only makes it the same price again?

I would pick this up if I wasn't so afraid that the Penguins disc is going to blow.
Loved the Penguin short on the first Madagascar disc, haven't heard a lot of good about this new one though.

Trevor has a nice price comparison table for Madagascar 2/Penguins set.

Re: Head's Up: Madagascar 2 $5 off coupon

Yes, the coupon works for the Blu-Ray. However, the Blu-Ray isn't being released until Tuesday. They had NONE at Best Buy. They checked, and said that the Blu-Ray is coming out on Tuesday. That's screwed up. On the upside, they let me pick-up the Penguin plush without paying for it, since they probably wouldn't have any left by Tuesday. I went ahead and bought the first movie on Blu-Ray, since I don't have it in my collection. It was ringing up for $24.99. So, I'll be heading back to Best Buy to pick up Madagascar 2 on Blu-Ray next Tuesday.

That's seriously screwed up -- the Blu-ray is supposed to be released today. Amazon has it in stock, but I would need to use the $5 coupon to make it worth it. But this explains why there were no BDs at my Best Buy today.

Anyone had luck with the coupon above printed out and Best Buy?

Got the paper this morning, and there wasn't a coupon in it at all.

Thanks OP for the coupon. That coupled with a 5 dollar RZ coupon I have brings it down to 15.99 for me.

Thanks

I used the coupon earlier tonight with no problems. When they scanned the coupon it said Invalid Coupon on the register, but they still took the $5 off.

Re: Head's Up: Madagascar 2 $5 off coupon

Was anyone able to get it to print that big? The ad printed out regular size but the coupons printed small. Anyone, anyone? Thought I saw a hand there...

I picked up a copy of the Blu-Ray tonight for 25.99+tax minus the 5.00 coupon. They even let me have one of the penguins. Not bad for 20.99+tax out the door.

Thanks for all the good news on the coupons!

See if they let you Price Match Frys (with their ad at $19.99 for the 2 disk)

I was able to PM Fry's and use the $5 coupon and still get the TY Penguin too.

I printed the coupons on an 11x17 color laserprinter with no problems being accepted at BB this morning!

Re: Head's Up: Madagascar 2 $5 off coupon

So, I wonder why the Best Buy I went to said that the Blu-Ray comes out next Tuesday, yet, people are being able to buy it elsewhere?

I saw them at Best Buy yesterday. They had plenty of Blu-rays and 1 disc sets. The 2 disc DVDs were selling well.

Freakin Target! My son really wanted the 2-pack. So I go to get it. All of the 2-packs are Full Screen! They had plenty of single disk Wide Screen versions. What's worse is that the Penguins bonus disk is Wide Screen. I open it up and will see if I can return the full screen version for a widescreen version.
