Best Buy Media Prices: 10/25 - 31 - 30% Off Reg Price BD w/Exclusions

[musick]

30% off regularly priced BDs (no new releases, no Ice Age 3, Tinker Bell ATLT, Battlestar Galactica: The Plan, Transformers: ROTF, Wrong Turn, Twilight, Last House On The Left, Friday The 13th, The Haunting, some other "horror" movie I can't make out, and music blu-rays)

so not much of a sale compared to everyday Amazon prices but you might find a deal or 2 and may be good if you have GC's or credit to burn

[kevin75]

that other horror movie is 'the uninvited'.

[musick]

that other horror movie is 'the uninvited'.

thank you

also of note if you missed the TRU or Amazon deals

B2GO Videogames PS3, 360, Wii $59.99 Or Less, Mix & Match

Hmmm, I wonder if this deal will be available online at their site as well....there have been some MSRP price drops lately that their site reflects, but their stores do not...I'd rather be able to order online and use the in-store pickup option to get the cheapest price, rather than go through the hassle of debating things with some of their employees....
I'm going to keep my fingers crossed for Sunday!

[Toddarino]

Anyone know what Batman Begins is usually priced at? I just saw that it's on sale for 13.49. Don't know if I should pick it up today or hold off and see if it's cheaper after the 30% off.

[tofferman]

Army of Darkness and an American Werewolf in London (minus 30%) would be priced at $13.99 = sold!

[Drav3n]

i picked up hot fuzz and green mile today, gonna go back tomorrow for the adjustment.

im thinkin of pickin up that 3pack of halloween, hellraiser and children of the corn. its priced @ $35, but minue the 30% it would bring it down to about $25.

and i saw the masters of horror season 1 for $45. For just over $30, thats not a bad deal at all.

[Dean Kousoulas]

I'll check their selection on Tuesday. Odds are though, I won't find any better prices then I could get at Amazon.com

[Moleman1138]

I hoping online applies too. They matched Amazon's True Blood price. $24 maybe if this works?

[musick]

Hmmm, I wonder if this deal will be available online at their site as well....

website reflects the 30% off prices .... including pre-orders

most of the stuff is still on par though with Amazon pricing as I thought in the OP especially once you add tax on the BB price
plus I wouldn't doubt Amazon marks down anything big enough that they have priced lower

some things like Inglourious Basterds which is 20.99 on bb.com vs 27.99 on Amazon (but I doubt Amazon has marked this as far down as they will closer to street) look to be better deals

NXNW is 24.29 on Amazon and 20.99 on bb.com but again not much once you add tax and no shipping if you have Prime

The Green Mile which appears to be exclusive to them right now is now 20.99

[iNCREDiPiNOY]

Whew after 2 hours of finding the best deal on pre-orders. My cart had 15 in there then after an hour, I eliminates 10 of them and order just 5 movies i like.

[kenbenobi]

I just ordered the Wolverine bust exclusive for $31.49. I can take my old one back and save 10 bucks! My receipt is still valid :)

[PopcornBandit]

I will most likely head to BB tomorrow and pick up My Name Is Earl S4 for $34.99 (it beats Amazon's price of $40.99.) Thanks OP!

[lilvenom]

anybody else having trouble placing an order on the best buy website?

[RobCA]

I placed an order a few minutes ago (picked up the original Omen for $9.09) and it went through just fine.

Rob

[Adboy151]

anybody else having trouble placing an order on the best buy website?

It was a little flakey earlier, but I did order through for Point Break ($9.06) before I went out.

[kenbenobi]

Wizard of Oz collectors set for 45.49 and How I met your mother for 27.99 are decent deals...

[Torchur317]

anybody else having trouble placing an order on the best buy website?
Yup, it's not working at all for me....

[Adboy151]

FYI: Just be aware that Amazon is starting to match some catalog titles to the Best Buy sale. I've not seen any pre-orders match yet.

[Moopher]

I grbbed Army of Darkness for $13.49

[snausages]

Whew after 2 hours of finding the best deal on pre-orders. My cart had 15 in there then after an hour, I eliminates 10 of them and order just 5 movies i like.

May I ask which 15? I am a bit lazy on looking for pre-orders and then their pricing etc. Greatly appreciate the help! Thanks!

[bunkaroo]

So will these prices hold on pre-orders if the order is placed now? Any reason to believe they won't?

I stopped using Amazon in August after they started using a really shady courier for Prime members in this area. Getting prices for all the Q4 releases at or better than Amazon prices is very attractive for me now that I am buying local again.

[gryffinmaster]

In theory, you should be able to pick up the Battlestar Galactica Complete Blu-ray Collection for $175 + tax, since in-store pricing is $250 for the Blu-ray set. Not too shabby, considering you can actually go there, make sure you've got a good-looking set, and have a receipt for in-store returns in case of a faulty disc or something. :up:

[SPIDERone]

As a reminder, BestBuy honors price matches for 30 days - If you bought anything in the last month, they'll adjust the price.

Snow White = $20.99, Sleeping Beauty = $20.99. I got them when they were both $25 and ended up with a $15 gift card + $10 off, making them just a few dollars each after pricematch.

Proposal is $20.99 - if you used your coupon ($10 off) you can get it for $10.99 after price-match (previously $26.99)

I came out with $30 back after price-matches today.

[iNCREDiPiNOY]

Luckily i saved all the screenshots for the pre-orders only :) , sorry no releases. :(

[b2net]

Not that I am going to spend this amount, but the Batman Anthology is $66.99 for Blu and 89.99 for DVD... hmmmmm?

Probably regret this as I am sure there will be an IMAX version or some other special or coupon or something, but Star Trek (2009 Movie) is $20.99 with this sale... In store Pickup = $0 ship... + tax... Maybe I can cancel pre-order if it becomes cheaper with other means..

They also have many titles for $9.09... Click on Movies, Click on Blu-Ray, Sort by "Priced Low to High" and browse... Jewel of the Nile, Romancing the Stone, Batman 1966, to name a few..

[mraw]

Maybe I'm just cheap, because none of these prices are jumping out at me. Everything I'm looking at is still in the $20 range, which is too much for me.

[Viper187]

As a reminder, BestBuy honors price matches for 30 days - If you bought anything in the last month, they'll adjust the price.

Shit. I picked up Green Mile last week. I'll have to take my receipt over there tomorrow. You don't actually have to bring the item, do you? I would think the receipt should be sufficient.

[bunkaroo]

Shit. I picked up Green Mile last week. I'll have to take my receipt over there tomorrow. You don't actually have to bring the item, do you? I would think the receipt should be sufficient.

This is one of the reasons I do my orders through the website for in-store pickup. Since it's a website order I just have to email them to adjust it.

[gryffinmaster]

Maybe I'm just cheap, because none of these prices are jumping out at me. Everything I'm looking at is still in the $20 range, which is too much for me.

You know, after waltzing around the section for probably 20-25 minutes, I came to the same conclusion. Almost bought The Green Mile, but it was still a little more than I wanted to spend.

[jeffbase34]

You know, after waltzing around the section for probably 20-25 minutes, I came to the same conclusion. Almost bought The Green Mile, but it was still a little more than I wanted to spend.

Same here. BB's prices are ridiculously high. $50 bucks for Band of Brothers and that is with the 30% discount? That's crazy. James Bond blu rays sets were priced at 100 bucks b4 discount. lol

I did get Shawshank Redemption for $17.XX though.

[SPIDERone]

Shit. I picked up Green Mile last week. I'll have to take my receipt over there tomorrow. You don't actually have to bring the item, do you? I would think the receipt should be sufficient.

Yeah, item isn't necessary - if you paid with a credit card or used your reward-zone card, that information is enough for them to pull the info up in-store.

[filmsoncon]

I think this sale's getting undersold here. I'm fine with spending around $20 for a new-ish Blu, and these are some pretty good prices; I did a cross-check of eight titles, comparing to Amazon and Deep Discount minus 25% (presuming that sale comes back in November), and all but one were at least a buck or two cheaper at bestbuy.com.

[maxfisher]

Yeah, looks like picking up all three seasons of Star Trek TOS is about $172. That's about $40 less than Amazon and $45 less than Deep Discount. Not too bad.

[jiggyblau]

I got Primal Fear, Romancing the Stone, Jewel of the Nile, and Spaceballs ($5 MFR coupon printout) plus Ice Age 2 ($5 MFR coupon printout). Pretty solid prices. I would have bought Major League for $12.59 if they had it in store. I'll just order from Amazon, and hopefully they'll match.

[mraw]

I personally don't consider paying 1 or 2 bucks less than other retailers a 'deal' when I'm on the fence about buying certain titles anyway. The titles I looked at were a buck or two less than amazon and the likes, but that doesn't make me want to rush and buy them. When tax is added they are the same price as amazon.

I'll wait for Black Friday if I get anything. I've purchased about 10 titles since summer and I have yet to open any because DVR is talking up all of my time.

I haven't paid $20 or more for any of my Blu-ray discs.

[Lance_G]

I brought in all my receipts from the past 30 days and they price adjusted everything! Total of $55 back -smile-

[Snowmaker]

I didn't even notice this in the ad and I was just at the store where there was NO indication of such a sale.

[Brodie Corleone]

I didn't see any signs either. They had tags up for some titles that were already on sale, but nothing about 30% off most BDs.

I picked up The Office: Season 5 ($34.99) and 300 digibook w/exclusive comic ($24.49). Decent enough deal for me.

[Snowmaker]

I may pick up the South Park movie for $17.49 tomorrow.

[crow121]

A Bug's Life on Blu for $20.99. Not too shabby.

[SPIDERone]

My local store had an 8.5 x 11" sign printed up and placed on top of the BD racks - "30% off all Blu-Ray Discs" - one could even make a case that it would apply to new releases/sale items since there was no disclaimer.

[Lance_G]

At my local Best Buy yesterday, 3 employees were circulating and letting everyone in the blu-ray area know that they were all 30% off. They have increased their Blu-ray disc floorspace by 50% in the past month.

[wildman1037]

I didn't even notice this in the ad and I was just at the store where there was NO indication of such a sale.

Hard to see, but the store I went to actually had it marked on the edge of the shelf, NOT on one of those cards which stick out from the shelf (if that makes any sense).

[The Monkees]

I picked up Home Alone for $17.49 and The Grinch (the Jim Carrey one) for $13.99

Depending on if I win the auction on eBay or not, I might be picking up Home Alone 2 at some point as well.

[Torchur317]

Picked these up today....

Hot Fuzz - Ultimate Edition (2007)
American Werewolf in London- Full Moon Edition (1981)
Hardware (1990)
Trick 'r Treat - Special Edition

Curious as to how much you paid for Trick 'r Treat? I know it shows 24.49 on their site.

Reason why I ask is that WBshop has it for 19.95 plus theres a cpn that knocks it down to 15.96. Add another title to get free shipping.

[Torchur317]

It was $20.99 after the discount....

[bookcase3]

I may pick up the South Park movie for $17.49 tomorrow.

Amazon just matched this price and I'm tempted to buy it, but I fear it will be under $15 by the end of the year.

[Torchur317]

24.49 on their site.
Btw, it was priced $29.99 in store not 24.49 so you might be able to get it a little cheaper than I did.

[darkdaze73]

Btw, it was priced $29.99 in store not 24.49 so you might be able to get it a little cheaper than I did.

I ordered TrT, Contact and The Dark Knight(b5g1 freebie) from WBshop yesterday for $33.xx shipped. I already have TDK sold for $10, so I will end up paying just under $24 for TrT & Contact.

Is "XB792" the coupon you used?

[Rammsteinfan]

Went and got my price adjustment on Green Mile digibook. :thumbsup:

[darkdaze73]

Used "xb992" to knock 20% off TrT. Also used "wbinsider25" to knock 25% off my second title(Contact).

btw, free shipping with the purchase of 2 or more titles.....and free 2-day shipping on orders of $60 or more.

[Sweet Baby James]

^

Thanks. I think that I'm going to grab Trick 'R Treat and Freddy vs. Jason.

[asianxcore]

Stupid question, but I assume this won't work for Night Of The Creeps

[Adboy151]

Stupid question, but I assume this won't work for Night Of The Creeps

It still shows as $24.99 on BestBuy.com so it seems unlikely. Since it would be a "new release," they may not have coded its UPC under the 30% discount.

Then again it's Best Buy, so YMMV.

It is currently $17.49 on Amazon tho'.

I know the 2000 Grinch movie isn't a new release but as of yesterday it was still listed as $24.99 on the website, though in store it was marked $19.99 and rang up $13.99, so who knows?

[WMAangel]

For whatever reason, there are actually two separate, differently priced listings for this title on their site...

This one is the right one, normally $19.99, on sale this week for $13.99:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=9526248&st=Grinch&lp=1&type=product&cp=1&id=51207

And then this one here is listed at $24.99 and not being discounted, but it is backordered anyway and not available for store pickup:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=18072513&st=Grinch&lp=3&type=product&cp=1&id=51207

Who knows why...they have the same release date and list price, but different SKUs....it's all good though, the correct one is the first one! :)

That's interesting because on Sunday afternoon when I checked their site there were 2 different listings like these but one was $24.99 and the other was $26.98 with no sale price, now the sale price is listed.

[WMAangel]

I forgot to mention...I know some people may have knocked this sale, but it worked out great for me today on some titles I have been waiting for that recently had MSRP reductions....I picked up:
Batman (1966) - 9.09
Romancing The Stone - 9.09
Jewel Of The Nile - 9.09
Me, Myself & Irene - 9.09
Spaceballs - 12.49 (after $5 off coupon from here: http://forum.dvdtalk.com/dvd-bargains/563608-fox-mgm-bd-dvd-store-printable-coupons.html)
Mean Girls - 12.59
Primal Fear - 12.59
Shaun Of The Dead - 13.99
Grinch - 13.99
Nine titles for just over a hundred bucks....can't really even do that well at CH if they ever again offer a BOGO with free shipping....

[Snowmaker]

Spaceballs - 12.49 (after $5 off coupon from here: http://forum.dvdtalk.com/dvd-bargains/563608-fox-mgm-bd-dvd-store-printable-coupons.html)

Thanks for that. I'll have to try that.

[BuckNaked2k]

Meh, not much here. Amazon prices are equal or better, and no tax in my state, although I did notice the grossly overpriced Hero was a few bucks cheaper at BB.

[kurtzp]

What is everyone's opinion on preordering Star Trek TOS season 3 for $55.99 plus tax? Would Amazon end up having it cheaper based on the final price of the first two seasons?

[Adboy151]

What is everyone's opinion on preordering Star Trek TOS season 3 for $55.99 plus tax? Would Amazon end up having it cheaper based on the final price of the first two seasons?

IIRC Best Buy was the lowest with Season Two on release date -- I want to say $60 -- which was pretty good at the time (and Amazon did match at some point during that week).

However, this release doesn't have the support of another Star Trek box set or title being released on that date, so who's to say the discount will the same for Season Three.

It's depends on your tax rate, but it's not that bad of a deal.

[badlieut]

Picked up for release date pickup (so no shipping)

Public Enemies
500 Days of Summer
Inglorious Basterds
Bruno
Star Trek
at 20.99 ea

then Leon for 13.99

All of those are better than Amazon even w/ the 6% tax in my state.

[Chet Desmond]

Stupid question, but I assume this won't work for Night Of The Creeps
I picked it up at the store and it rang up at $24.95. When I mentioned the 30% special, they gave me the discount.

[Lance_G]

Stargate 15th Anniversary BD rang up at $17.49

[rfduncan]

Star Trek
at 20.99 ea
Thanks for pointing that out! I picked up First Contact Blu-ray with that for an additional $10 off! Plus a GC I had it was about $20 total. Sweet.

[Snowmaker]

Stargate 15th Anniversary BD rang up at $17.49

Yeah, but I'm sure, just like always, this title will be at a bargain price soon enough.

[WMAangel]

Meh, not much here. Amazon prices are equal or better, and no tax in my state, although I did notice the grossly overpriced Hero was a few bucks cheaper at BB.

I guess it all just depends on what you are interested in getting....
The same nine discs I got with this sale at BB for $107.11 total (including tax) would have cost $126.91 at Amazon without tax....that's still about $20 in savings, works for me....

[BuckNaked2k]

I guess it all just depends on what you are interested in getting.....I guess so. I looked at the nine titles you listed, and none of them had any appeal to me.

Out of my Amazon wish list of 30 or so titles, only two or three were cheaper at BB.

[latenightcreepa]

picked up Wrong Turn 3-Pack Blu Ray for $31.50

[zekeburger1979]

I have a couple of stupid questions:

If I preorder Up on Blu-Ray ($24.49 on the website) in-store and get the Steelbook for free, what price am I going to pay for Up when I pickup the DVD on release day? I'm guessing release day price minus $7.95 I put down for it.

Would I be better off pre-ordering it on the website to make sure I lock in the 30% off Blu-Ray sale this week?

How about you start with all apple or all oranges? Are you talking about the DVD or the Blu-ray because you mention both in the same sentence...

[zekeburger1979]

My fault. The Blu-Ray.

[BSTNFAN]

picked up Wrong Turn 3-Pack Blu Ray for $31.50

I just did the same.

[Zen Peckinpah]

So the dumbass told me the 30% only applied if you bought that Insignia player. Everything rings up at 30% off though?

[iNCREDiPiNOY]

FYI, Amazon is now matching BB pricing including pre-orders.

[b2net]

not on everything.... but make sure to search for the titles you want..

[badlieut]

Star Trek is still 27.99 at Amazon so I cancelled my BBY order for everything else.

[rexinnih]

Ran by and picked up some discs yesterday. Wizard of Oz (with lenticular cards-still had some left), Shaun of the Dead, Van Helsing, Army of Darkness. A guilty pleasure extravaganza!

[SethDLH]

heads up: An American Werewolf In London Blu Ray is showing $13.99 on the website (dvd is 14.99). Will be heading to best buy today to scoop it up plus 30% off

edit- nevermind, didn't realize it was on sale for $13.99 still a good price that i will probably jump on

[nonametofame]

Star Trek is still 27.99 at Amazon so I cancelled my BBY order for everything else.

I hope they're just late on matching this. They seem a little slow adjusting prices, as they just matched The Professional and Love, Actually today.

[asianxcore]

Sweet. Hardware (the film) is included in this sale. Might have to drop by BB today.

[dolphinboy]

So the dumbass told me the 30% only applied if you bought that Insignia player. Everything rings up at 30% off though?

The "manager" (there's never a REAL manager in BB) tried to tell me this too and after politely arguing about it, he called another store, and then said he was wrong.

Turned out good for me, because I didn't pay attention to something too, that the discount didn't apply to music related BDs, and they gave me the 30% of The Police-Certifiable BD anyway for the "problems" they caused by not knowing about their own deals.

Two years ago I remember liking going into BB and getting great deals, now I buy almost everything online.

[dolphinboy]

I hope they're just late on matching this. They seem a little slow adjusting prices, as they just matched The Professional and Love, Actually today.

It's strange because I checked all my orders today and my Star Trek is 22.99 in my pre-order. That's not because of matching the BB deal, because that would take it to 20.99.

I have no idea where my price came from and with Forrest Gump and Chasing Amy not going down either, I think some might not get matched.

E-mails never hurt and sometimes do get enough attention for Amazon to do something. I've sent 2.

[Adboy151]

It's strange because I checked all my orders today and my Star Trek is 22.99 in my pre-order. That's not because of matching the BB deal, because that would take it to 20.99.

If you've had it pre-ordered for while, it was $22.99 briefly (like a day) a couple of weeks ago. It was likely automatically adjusted through the pre-order guarantee.

[SPIDERone]

As a heads-up, the Sony staycation coupons are good through Saturday - you can get some very good deals on titles when combined with the BB sale:
http://www.sonyrewards.com/local/files/en/clubs/bluray/moviestaycation//Staycation%20Coupon%20Sheet_Generic.pdf

I just picked up 'The One' on blu for $11.99. Most of these are under $15 before coupon.

You can also use the follow codes for amazon: http://www.sonypictures.com/homevideo/specialoffers/coupons/Staycation_Coupon_Sheet_Amazon2.pdf

[ecwfan]

BB just sent me a 10% off coupon in my email. Has anyone tried using this coupon in conjunction with the 30% off? According to the coupon it's not supposed to work when you combine offers, but sometimes it works anyway.

[The Monkees]

I picked up quite a few things with this 30% off BDs, I pretty much tapped out all my money in the process.

I got:

Home Alone
Home Alone 2: Lost in New York
Dr. Suess' How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory

And then I also preordered:

It's a Wonderful Life
Rocky: Undisputed Collection (which I ended saving only about $0.50 on, but whatever)

[SPIDERone]

BB just sent me a 10% off coupon in my email. Has anyone tried using this coupon in conjunction with the 30% off? According to the coupon it's not supposed to work when you combine offers, but sometimes it works anyway.

I've had no luck with coupons and "sale" prices like these - the rep will usually say "Yeah, it accepted it", only to see that it took off $0.00 (or only discounted the non-sale items.

[musick]

You can also use the follow codes for amazon: http://www.sonypictures.com/homevideo/specialoffers/coupons/Staycation_Coupon_Sheet_Amazon2.pdf

unfortunately STAYBLU3 is not taking @ Amazon on "The Professional" blu pre-order

[SPIDERone]

unfortunately STAYBLU3 is not taking @ Amazon on "The Professional" blu pre-order

^ yeah, the discount only applies to the titles shown on the coupon (the majority being DVD with a handful of BLU). The Professional shown on the coupon is for this DVD: http://www.amazon.com/Professional-Jean-Reno/dp/0767802519

[BobaGooch]

Hi, I have not seen this mentioned, but Best Buy has the Donnie Darko/Silence of the Lambs blu ray 2-pack for $18.89 with in store pick up right now. I placed an order for instore pick up and it is now waiting for me for later today.

[WMAangel]

BB just sent me a 10% off coupon in my email. Has anyone tried using this coupon in conjunction with the 30% off? According to the coupon it's not supposed to work when you combine offers, but sometimes it works anyway.

Yes, it does work, just used one this morning, saved an additional 10% on top of the 30% off sale price...the reason this works is because the 30% off is not in their systems indicated as a "sale price"....

[zekeburger1979]

Ignore my previous posts asking about Up.

I noticed that the cashier didn't ring up my pre-order correctly and I took it back in to have done right. While the CS girl was adjusting it, I asked her if when I picked up the Blu-Ray on release day, would I pay the price that day or the pre-order price from yesterday. She wasn't sure, but wrote on my receipt that the pre-order on the website was $24.49. If all goes well, I should owe $24.49 + tax - $7.95 pre-order on release day.

What's the over/under on how soon the disc holders in the steelbook break? ;)

Do steelbook hubs usually break? I've never had a problem in my 8 or so steelbooks

Have you seen the flimsy holder/flaps inside the Up steelbook? It is not like a normal steelbook case.....

Had $25 in reward zone credit and had to spend $23 dollars before the end of the year to retain Silver status, so I got Star Trek, Harry Potter HBP, and Terminator Salvation. Wasn't sure on Terminator, but I needed something else and it had a great price. It came out to about $33. I can live with that.

Unfortunately they are here is the pic i posted in the UP thread after i got the steelbook when i first opened up the back of the steel case came seperated from the inner plastic it snaps back on but is pretty cheap.

More than likely the instore price for up on release day is going to be 24.99 anyways, which i think its show as being online since day one of the pre orders.(though i could be very mistaken on that) if anything it will possibly be a little cheaper as well. when you did your preorder (unless you did it online) you didnt pay for it in advance so in all likely hood your price will ring up for the price they have it and if its even cheaper at say frys or walmart you can price match it.

myself i got a refund on my pre order today for the 8.25 since the amazon price is to good to pass up especially when buying monsters inc as well.

works out to like 17.00 and some change each with no sales tax and free shipping. and bestbuy doesnt ask for the steel book back when you ask to refund the pre order.

sorry if i made that more complicated than need be just trying to point out you have options :)
I have a couple of stupid questions:

If I preorder Up on Blu-Ray ($24.49 on the website) in-store and get the Steelbook for free, what price am I going to pay for Up when I pickup the DVD on release day? I'm guessing release day price minus $7.95 I put down for it.

Would I be better off pre-ordering it on the website to make sure I lock in the 30% off Blu-Ray sale this week?

Got the Green Lantern w/ fig for under $20........got eh 30% off and used the 10% off coupon.

NO PROBLEM.

Had to order online the Batman/Superman w/Figure online, but got the shipping waived. :)

I'm guessing this sale has not stopped. I just picked up more titles from BB at 30% off.

Interesting. I was wondering the same thing as well, as the signs were still up at my local BB. The 30% discount is NOT reflected in BB.com prices anymore, however.

FWIW, the sale is over. I just happened to pick titles up that Best Buy has apparently discounted. Wanted, for example, is $19.99 now.
