Cheaper to buy the individual seasons of Heroes (almost $76 before tax) than the Heroes collection ($89.99 before tax) - that includes all three seasons - plus if you buy Heroes-Season 3 separate, you get that bonus DVD too.
Nothing for me this week either - I'll wait until the Holidays for lower price on Heroes-Season 3.

What's up with CSI 9 being $60-65 everywhere?
That's ridiculous for a TV show season. I don't think even Northern Exposure was that much, and that was the most expensive show I've purchased.

It's great that there are starting to be more and more bonus discs coming out. There was a small drought there for a while.

For anyone who is planning on buying Gladiator, the Digital Bits is reporting that they've gotten e-mails from readers who got copies already that the picture looks less than great due to edge enhancement and excessive DNR.
I really want to get the Guitar Hero 5 bundle.

CSI is one of the most expensive procedural dramas on TV. Combining production costs and music costs, it shouldn't be surprising that the MSRP is really high. Previous seasons were around the same cost when they came out new. The MSRP for season 9 is $99.95.

Damn. Now I'm torn between the BB exclusive lenticular packaging for Supernatural season four and the bonus disc at Target. Is the bonus disc for the blu-ray also?
I guess it just depends on what the BB packaging looks like.

hmmm... I'm not much for packaging, so if you're looking for people on here to give you advice, if I were choosing I'd go for the one with the bonus disc.

Same here. Disappointed in what Target is offering this time around. :(
I still don't understand why Target dropped the Brothers & Sisters Bonus disc. Especially since the other ABC shows continue to have them. I still haven't bought season 2 yet. Hopefully Costco will have a good price on it. Like they did S1 last year.

Does anyone know if the bonus disc is also included with the blu-ray? Or is it just the DVD version?

wait...target was supposed to have a brothers & sisters bonus disc??
I was planning on checking walmart on tuesday to see if maybe they would be the ones getting the B&S S3 exclusive disc (if there is one).. Cause every year with Desperate housewives they switch stores..and i was hoping maybe they'd do the same for this show.

Target had S1 Bonus disc.
No one had S2 Bonus disc.
I am just curious as to why they stopped. Especially since the other (ABC) shows all have bonus discs.

I've been to two stores, San Bernardino and Redlands, CA.
None have the bonus disc for S3 of "Heroes". Has anybody had better luck?

My Target (Orlando, FL.) had copies with the Heroes bonus disc.
And the bonus discs were all DVD only, unfortunately. I probably won't ever be buying Blu-Ray sets at Target as long as they are wrapping those security webs around them, which dig into the packaging.

So then brandon.. how do you tell it had a bonus disc? Sticker..wording. The tag just didn't say it on the shelf did it? Thats what I saw..the shelf tag, but nothing else.

There's a sticker on the front of the set.

Pricing on the dvd sets leaves alot to be desired. Does it seem like the pricing on teh dvd sets is higher than in the past?
I will get Supernatural and Heroes when I can find them for cheap, but the bonus disc is tempting.

I went to Target ready to buy season four of Supernatural on blu-ray and get the bonus disc, only to find out that the bonus disc was DVD-only. I had no other choice but to opt for the BB lenticular packaging which is actually pretty neat.

My target had the BD of Heroes (and some other TV releases) un-clamped (no spiders or plastic or anything)
The dude at my Target had no idea about the bonus disc. I was there when it opened... all they had was regular releases.
It's a shame... seasons 1 and 2 had such great Target exclusives.

At the store I went to there were only 2 copies of the Heroes exclusive version (stickered as Target exclusive) and I went there early in the morning where no one else really buys collectibles there. I guess they did not have a lot distributed to each store perhaps?
Anyone watch the bonus disc? Is it worth it? Disappointed that Target didn't do a special packing like they did for previous exclusive Heroes S1 & S2 releases.

I went for the lenticular packaging at Best Buy for Supernatural after finding out that the Blu-ray version at target does NOT have the bonus disc. I checked with two stores before finding an employee who confirmed it for me.
I'm expecting an email back from Target soon. Their printed ad could be read either way as far as the Blu-ray, but if you open the ad on their website and click on the Blu-ray set, it specifically says:
Supernatural: The Complete Fourth Season* Blu-ray Disc
Only at Target!
$49.99
Stores Only
This item is available in stores, but is not available online.
Includes bonus DVD with 45-minute panel discussion at Comic Con and more.
Tune in Tuesday. In stores September 1. Release date subject to change. *Quantities limited; no rain checks.

I went to walmart to see if they had a Brothers & sisters S3 exclusive disc... But mine didn't even have B&S in stock. : / Which is weird cause they had all the other new releases. Guess there is no bonus disc again this year. :( I'm gonna wait to buy it until there is a sale. Since there is no exclusive..

GOT IT!
A thought popped in my head and I looked an old receipt and gave a call. I wanted to know when they get new shipments. Instead the clerk told me they 'now' have three copies, "Heroes" S3 with store exclusive.
I rushed over and there they were in those plastic security boxes. Odd. Bought it and while walking away I saw that they a couple of those Centennial Collection sets, "Breakfast At Tifanny's" and "Funny Face". Asked, they're $7.50 each. Bought those as well. Then it got better.
I was given a voucher as part of my receipt for one dollar off anything over a dollar from their cafe. Picked up an Icee (cherry mixed with blueberry) for $0.34. Awesome! It's fraken hot here.
Back on topic. Didn't hit me until I was home. Sets? I only saw three (now two) boxes for "Heroes" S3. When I was there yesterday there were lots of them. All gone? Did the same thing happen like the Redlands, CA store. My quest to find the exclusive took me there. None of the sets had the "exclusive" sticker on it. The clerk was trying to convince me that ALL the copies had them inside. I left empty handed. I wonder...
