Best Buy Midnight Sale (7/7)

14 titles. I wonder if Amazon will match these early like they did last time.

Re: Best Buy Midnight Sale (7/7)

I wonder how much more Once Upon a Time in Mexico can drop. If it hits $5, I'm in.

If amazon matches, it will presumably be after the sale starts. Obviously the current posted prices are not the sale prices.

The actual sale prices are presumably being kept under wraps since BB publicized them in advance last time, and amazon promptly scooped them by putting the same titles on sale well before midnight.

I may be wrong, but I think it's different distribution rights holders...

Yeah, I picked it up for $8 last week. I'd be up for returning it to save a few bucks.

Re: Best Buy Midnight Sale (7/7)

Why is the bluray of Once Upon a Time in Mexico cheaper than the dvd?

No need to return. Just take in the receipt and have them price match it.

Re: Best Buy Midnight Sale (7/7)

Depending on prices i will pick up taxi driver and stepbrothers.
though taxi driver needs to be lower than the 12.99 it was for a long time after its initial release.

I don't see anything in their Price Match terms that would exclude it:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Help-Top...at204400050013

I have 3 Blu-rays on the sale list that I recently bought. Since my Best Buy is still open for 4 more hours, I'll be taking in my receipts tonight to have them match the website.
