The Simpsons: Season 8 (Maggie Head) >>>> $19.99

Thats a sweet deal!!! Im up for buying it but Im afraid itll be cheaper come Black Friday. Do stores to that price match thing on Black Friday, like if I buy it now, can I jus got on BF to get a cheaper price if that happens?

I know of no store that will match a Black Friday price as they are considered time / stock sensitive deals.

cisman · 11-14-06, 11:22 AM

I'll have to look into Firefly and Prison Break for those prices

Should be $16 on BF. Google Black Friday for details.

Has anyone heard any word on any possible Black Friday/Christmas sales for Seinfeld Season 7???? I'm seriously considering getting it at Circuit City this week since they have the best price apparently. What was the deal they offered with it in store? I looked over but didn't see it on the thread. I'd hate to get it only to find that it was like $20 a couple days later.

psm129 · 11-14-06, 05:30 PM

Is the price of $14.99 for the seinfeld sets, the lowest price till date? Thanks in advance..

DVDFreaker · 11-14-06, 06:18 PM

I went to Circuit City but they moved and won't open until Thursday, grrr, I want to get the Sixth Sense....

Special deal (from store notes section at top) =

Receive a $25 Instant Savings when you purchase a Sony Vaio notebook and the Seinfeld Season 7 DVD set // Offer Good 11/21/06 - 11/26/06

As far as a Black Friday bargain price on Season 7, it's highly unlikely as it will be BRAND NEW at that point.

A Christmas deal may be possible but I consider that remote because at that point it will be just a month old.

I would get it now (I know I will be..... but with a price match at Best Buy and DOUBLE RZ points!!!).

AH, good idea. That's what I'll do then. I'm going there today anyway. Thanks for the tip.

scarredgod · 11-15-06, 09:29 AM

is it ONLY the maggie head version of Simpsons season 8 on sale? i would really prefer the non-head version.

It is what is shown.

You should have no problem (unless they don't have it in stock).

The cheapest price till 11/26 lets say... I know there will be some BF deals for $14.99 on the seinfeld sets....but has the price gone any lower than that previously?

This is the lowest these sets have EVER been.

Previous low price was $19.99

Yeah, $14.99 is the lowest they've ever been. If you're feeling especially cheap, have BB pricematch them that week. That's good for another $2.50 off per set.

Does BB do 110% pricematch? Last time they just matched to the same price from CC for me. I wish I knew this earlier.

junkreceiver · 11-15-06, 06:07 PM

Seems that they do, but just don't ask for price match before you buy. instead you have to do it after the purchase... weird.

Quote BB:

If you are about to make a purchase and discover a lower advertised price offered by a local retail competitor on the same available brand and model, let us know and we'll match that price on the spot.

Already bought? We'll refund you the price difference, plus an additional 10% of that difference up to 30 days after your purchase (14 days on select categories*).

You have to take it to customer service at BB to get the match less 10% of the difference. The cashiers at checkout will normally just do a straight price match. What I've had to do is buy it at normal price and then walk over to customer service to get the match and 10% of the difference back.

Yes, so I figured. Well, a short walk-over to get $2.5 off per set. Just couldn't resist it.

psm129 · 11-15-06, 07:32 PM

Ya I remember this one time I bought some TV sets online at BB and went in for store pick-up. While picking up I told them about a lower price at CC and they just did a price match for that, no 110%

When I was readin their terms and conditions I realized tht the 110% offer stands only on stuff already purchased (within 30 days) and not while purchasing..weird huh! But I guess if you want a killer deal you have to poke for it

yourlocalcinema · 11-16-06, 12:45 AM

So wait, I might be an idiot missing something, but the first post says "See Special Deal in Store Notes Section" but I don't see any such section....so what's the special deal with season 7 of seinfeld? Is there an exclusive bonus?

What I call my "Store Notes" section is the very first section after my salutation where I list the "hidden" deals that I find.
