Picked up the Casablanca 3-disc set for $26 and change after a price match and U&S coupon. Awesome deal, they only had 1 left at my store.

I keep forgetting about using that $3 Universal coupon. How many times can you print that on the same PC?

That's not the correct version. This is the correct version, and it's $10.99, but it doesn't show on BB's site: http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Source...Blu-ray/27240/

I have picked up so far:

Captain America $14.99 AC
Clueless $6.99 AC
The Hangover Part II $4.99 AC

Have two more coupons, using one on The Descendants for $2 with the MFR coupon, can't decide what to use the other one on.

It says on bestbuy.com that this is a two day deal. Will this still be available tomorrow?

I was able to print 2 before it said I hit my quota on my computer.

I picked up Cape Fear (1991) for $4.99 + tax using one of the upgrade coupons. Great price.

Looks like Chuck Season 5 is still showing as $26.99 for blu-ray instead of the advertised $34.99, so some may be able to snag it for $21.99 after U&S. Pretty good deal for a day-one season release.

They had it tagged at 26.99 in my store today.

Used the U&S deal to get Underworld Awakening steelbook and The Descendants(plus $5 coupon).

Noticed they finally put out some of the titles with movie money for Battleship, SW and the Huntsman and Bourne Legacy(?). All the BD titles I saw were $14.99 except Green Zone and the most recent Mummy movie($9.99 each). Do not care for either ofthose titles, so I passed on them.

Wow. I'm not personally interested in HC, but I know Eureka/MOC had a bit of a fight last year with the UK gvt to release that at all in the UK. A bit surprised to see it so cheap under the circumstances.

Can anyone tell me the best way to handle using U&S and manufacturer's coupons and an RZ cert in the same order? Like, what order I should hand them in?

That's what I'm planning to do. I placed a store pick up order last night to make sure they have the bulk of the titles I want first. I was going to do the U&S transaction first, then add the manufacturer coupons second. Then when I make payment use my RZ certificate.

I'm thinking you are going to have problems. The main one being that you will need to do a return/rebuy in order to apply the U&S. They cannot process a return for store pickup orders for at least two hours after you pick up your order.

The store I shop at always takes RZ cert. before manu. coupons. Ran into this issue once or twice in the past with Disney titles.

Is the steelbook available for the 3D release, or only the 2D?

I used the coupon to get Descendants for $2 without a problem today. The girl didn't even question it. I got that, plus Green Hornet 3-D for $12 and Underworld 3-D Steelbook for $20. They had a steelbook preorder for Ghost Rider for $5 too, but I wasn't able to get it. I planned on getting the steelbook, and not picking up the 3-D on release date, and wait for the regular blu-ray to drop super cheap instead. She rang everything up, total was like $73 (should've been $41). The system was charging the entire price for Ghost Rider instead of just the $5. She pulled the rest off the shelf and told me to call back to see if they fixed the glitch, but I live to far away to go back just for that. Cool package though for anyone else interested.

I have to say I liked the customer service girl. There's a lot of crappy customer service people out there and a lot of people on various forums complaining about general BB employee incompetence but this girl was friendly, helpful and knew what she was doing.

I have done store pick ups before with Disney titles and added manufacturer coupons after without not too much trouble at my local BB. It's never been a problem with this store doing a return and repurchase. I don't want to make a long drive only to find out a lot of what I want is not in stock. It would end up being a big waste of time.

I believe it is for the 3D version only(cardboard back cover wraps around to the front states "Exclusive Blu-ray 3D Steelbook").

Rather than putting the 3D steelbooks in one rack, the store I shop at had them mixed in with the other 3D versions. Looked to be half a dozen or so copies at opening.

The steelbook is only the 3D release, but it has the option to watch 2D on the disc.

I saw a guy today trade in 4 blu-rays. They let him do it. And they let him use one of the coupons to buy a DVD. Go figure.
