I had to pick up a Lithium battery for my 35mm camera at Best Buy and saw three huge bins of 3-FOR-$18 DVDs. I was kind of in a hurry so I only had a minute to rifle through titles and didn't see anything unique to my taste, but I thought I'd start a thread you can add to if you did find something. I don't know if this is limited to my Best Buy; thus, definitely a YMMV deal.

were they titles that aren't normally 3 for 18, or was it a big bin of the stuff they usually sell for 5.99?

Well this was at the Pin Hole Pinole, CA store (East Bay; I happened to notice you're in the Bay Area, as am I) Best Buy.

I guess I don't know, AX. Like I said I was in something of a hurry and only rifled through ten or so, not seeing anything of interest to me. When I saw a Barney DVD I, um, left. I think I saw some yellow labels saying 5.99 . . . but would that mean that that is what BB typically sells them for? It's the first time I noticed the bins, you see. I only make it into Best Buy once a year usually, on Black Friday. Although I did go there twice one year when my coffee maker coughed up its last joe LOL.

They've added a few titles I think. I saw Last Castle, Forces of Nature & other titles that were not normally in the $5.99 section. Still a lot of $5.50 Wally World stuff though. I did see the Barney DVD too.

The one here is strictly the usual $5.99 fair that's already covered in the $6-and-under sticky thread.

I'm afraid I posted the news a week ago in HERE

FYI: If you purchase any 2 $5.99 DVDs you get 10% off any regulary priced DVD (at bestbuy only)

This explains why I got a 10% off discount on a DVD when it rang up with two DVDs from the $5.99 bin yesterday.

Gee, and first-time viewers only have to wade through 8 pages to get to it.

I really wish we had Bargain Bin threads distinguished by store. And following some sort of naming convention — like, WALMART Under-$6.00-Bin . . . BEST BUY Under-$6.00-Bin . . . etc.

it would be nice but it's very time-consuming. The OP of the $6 thread, Abintra, said he spent well over 100 hours doing that thread. Also, a lot of times when you maintain a thread, you feel under-appreciated so it's not worth it to the thread-maintainer in the long run. If you or anyone else wants to maintain the $6 Bargain Bin DVD threads, then feel free to.

Why would they have a 3 for 18 dollar bin of 5.99 movies?,it just does'nt make sense,you could buy them individually cheaper(well one penny cheaper lol)but you would not have to get 3 if you did'nt want to you could just pick one or 2 and you are not loseing anything by not getting 3

Peep

Psychology. "3 for 18" sounds like a sale on titles that usually run for much more. "$5.99 movies" sounds like a bunch of crap movies that you probably wouldn't want for half that.

Actually, the Best Buy I went to today had their bin labelled $5.99 movies, and that is indeed the price they rang up at. But these were NOT all the typical 5.99 movies or $5.50 movies from the Walmart bin. There were many movies in there with higher sticker prices ranging up to 24.99, but they all rang up at 5.99... Of course, YMMV...

MISS PEACH

You um, don't have to buy three.
