I'll be working on getting the large Best Buy update from last month into the table soon (hopefully SkyDog is recovering from his situation)--in the meantime, I'm going to just include them below the table in the same fashion that I used to. Hope this works for everyone! Thanks for your support, and keep those updates comin'!

Well, hopefully I got everything. Some of the things listed in that massive update were vague or series I'm not familiar with, so hopefully I got the right links. Anyway, it's possible that I made a mistake, so if you find one, go ahead and tell me, but please be pleasant about it. It takes a lot of time to do these kinds of updates, and I am human (shocker, huh?). Okay, that's all for now, I think. I'm going to be putting together an update (hopefully in the near future) listing places with all the best prices on thinpacks/complete collections/stuff like that, so if you guys want to start hunting--feel free. It would be a big help. Thanks!

Hmm.. my big lots and dollar generals never have anime. Those are great prices for those discs. I'd jump over a few of them to fill in my collections.

I've got to say justbarelymovin, I love the new format. It's simply awesome and more cleancut and easier to read IMO. Thanks for the great job you always do.

No change as far as my computer problems go, but I've got a couple more titles for the Big Lots list. Gregory Horror Show Vol. 1 and Lupin the 3rd Vol. 10 (w/ Choro Q On-Pack - Lupin w/ Race Car).

Agreed...There are three Big Lots stores close to me and none of them ever have any of the anime, it's always some stupid yoga DVDs for like .50 cents. Man it bums me out  I check often to see If I can maybe get lucky.

Hi, first post! I keep finding stuff that isn't on here, so I thought it is about time I share.
At BestBuy I found Gundam Seed Movie 3: Rumbling Sky, and Kiddy Grade File 1 & 2 for $11.99. The Kiddy Grade is a great deal, since you get 4 discs/half the series for $24. Now I am waiting for them to drop the prices on the Gundam Seed Movie 3 box and the Wolf Rain box, those don't seem to be selling at all. |

I got the Gundam Seed Movie III listed, but I'm confused as to what you mean about Kiddy Grade--Do you mean that the Vol. 3 & 4 pack is also $11.99? Because right now I have the Vol. 1 & 2 pack listed at $11.99, but that's only 2 discs, not 3, and only 1/4 of the series. Please let me know.
