Nope.... it's the cartoon version with Boris Karloff.

While there is a section of TVs in the ad, what I've listed appears to be in store only. But the ad says MOST of the deals will be available at CC.com on Thanksgiving.

And for those who don't know, it looks like Amazon will be selling 1,000 XBOX 360 core units at 2 PM EST for $100 each!!!!!

So if you are home, that alone may be something to look into.

Oh, and many thanks to speedy.

Be advised: There are MORE 2 for $8 titles shown..... I just can't make them out.

(DVDs stacked spines facing out and some stacks are behing other stacks....)

I couple of years ago I bought Halo the day before BF and showed up on BF to get the price difference. Somehow I doubt that would work again, but ya never know.

Another question - do any of you know what time the online sales start? 5am EST? Midnite?

God bless you Speedy. You're the man (as always)!

While it does not specifically say (Other than Most deals will be available online on Thanksgiving), I would image either a 12 AM or 5 AM start time.

True but it appears to me that they used a picture from a previous version. (And I thought those were loooooong out of print).

You should expect as with ALL BF transactions, slow access times and rapid stock depletion. Factor in how early you care to start as well and that should give a fair assessment of your success rate.

Some folks literally wait "online" most of the early morning with items in their cart and the keep hitting the refresh button to see the prices change. It can be done but many times it seems slower than a really fat woman in a buffet line.

BTW..... Happy Thanksgiving my good friend! Please have a wonderful holiday......

These should be available online but see my answer to RedBull7&83 above.

You'll have to move fast.

Interesting question.

I e-mailed Pilot and Geoff K. prior to my posting this and received no reply back on this. I had been poring through ad scans for about 2 weeks prior looking at stuff but I only posted this when I had the ad in hand.

Thanks. I'm gonna give it a try. The closest Circuit City is about a hour and a half drive from my house. I'd rather try my chances online than drive that far and the store be out of them.

Do you see an I/O Magic External DVD burner in the ad for $29.99 after rebate? I can't make out the web-id in what I've seen.

Thanks again for all your work --on this as well as all the other ads you bring to the forum.

Yes I do.

I/O Magic External 16x Dual Layer Format
Double Layer DVD Rewritable Drive
WEB ID = IDVD168DLE

$99.99 BEORE $70 Mail In Rebates

FYI..... this ad was all typed by me.

Which is why I did not get to the Target ad of 11/26...... yet.

Happy Holiday!

odditie · 11-17-06, 10:12 AM

Any idea if it's the old or the new version of Reservoir Dogs? I'm assuming old.

Duh Vuh Duh · 11-17-06, 10:30 AM

Gracias speedy, what about Platoon is it the Bare bones, SE, or 20th AE, I assuming either bare bones or SE?

thanks.

Reservoir dogs is the old one.

Can't really tell but assume the old version (probably bare bones)

Well I am going to atleast give it a try. Wish me luck! CC is just too far for me to try. I may try BB later in the day & Target and see whats left.

Happy Thanksgiving to you as well! I really do appreciate all you do for me. It really helps me plan ahead.

1,000 units not 10,000

And thanks for the prices!

drpie · 11-17-06, 10:54 AM

FYI -- The Wal-marts around me (NW Indiana) will price match on BF. My wife has done this the past couple of years and it is much much easier.

On their website it says 1,000 units. Was 10,000 a typo or did you see that someplace else? Either way, thanks for the heads up.

Thanksgiving day. It is going to be the hardest thing to get, so I wouldn't even try it.

Thanks for the prices! If I can wake up I'll be there at 5 AM!

Ohio Bobcat · 11-17-06, 12:57 PM

Speedy, could you verify for me (and everyone else) if - even though it SAYS season one of House - they show the Orange cover, which is actually season two? Thanks!

I had this same subject come up over at CAG.

It is Season 2 that is pictured but the text states Season 1.

I believe they mean Season 1 but more persuasive DVDTalkers / CAG'ers could use the misprint to get Season 1 and Season 2 of House. (At least that's what I'll attempt to do..... I mean how can they argue with you on that???? If you need Season 2, push them to say it matches the pictured set. If you need Season 1, push them on the text. I plan to attempt this in 2 separate trips..... Wish me luck

Typo on my part.
