how are they morons? are their in store prices the same as the websites?

also to anyone who is curious, Boy Meets World: Season 1 is only 29.99 on the FYE website, but 39.99 advertised?

We've got an fye in a mall across the street from Coconuts. We received a flyer only for Coconuts. We never get fye flyers. I do not think the offers are exactly the same between stores.

"Girl Next Door Unrated Version $14.99 after MIR and includes free poster of Elisha Cuthbert"

Did anybody have a problem getting this? I had to work, so somebody else ran there for me and they said that the store had no posters and didn't know anything about if they were getting them. I think I'm going to return it if they don't have any of the posters in the morning.

generally speaking, if a coconuts and fye are in the same area then only the freestanding store will issue flyers. if there is not a coconuts within the area of an fye, then that store may be on the program. an example would be the watertown ny fye.

for what it's worth my store got 5 posters!

As a store manager I always feel like I should apologize for the idiots that work in this company, but I won't. It amazes me how unaware of simple promotions they can be. Ridiculous.

Well, sadly this seems to be the theme in alot of retail. I took it back and they said they thought they had seen one in the back, but couldn't find it(?), and they thought that the rebate was the only deal with the DVD, even when shown the ad. Well, whatever.
