Sleeping Beauty Best Buy Promotion

I was wondering if anyone has received their $10 gift card from Best Buy for sending them "any" Disney dvd. I personally haven't received anything.

I didn't receive anything yet and they didnt give any way to contact the rebate house handling it. At least if nobody received it I know it isnt just me.

Sounds like they might just get a buttload of used dvds for nothing. They should have at least had a contact number for the rebate.

Maybe it's worth trying to contact best buy directly. It doesn't even say how long to wait for processing.

Hopefully, these rebates aren't being processed by Continental Promotion Group, Inc. (CPG), as that rebate processor filed for bankruptcy.

I haven't even sent mine off, yet. I didn't see a deadline on sending it, just a purchase timeframe. I picked up a couple of those Disney DVDs that were 2/$12 with a $10 gift card. I was going to send one of those off, but I haven't, yet (figured I'd, at least, watch it first). I was going to do that this week, but if they aren't sending out the gift cards, then I might have to hold off. However, the $10 gift card promotion was the main reason I went ahead and purchased it. Hopefully someone can find out something.

The same for me. I considered sending it off last week, but I figured that Best Buy would find some kind of way to disqualify me so I didn't bother.

I sent mine in mid-November. I figured the longer I waited to send it in, the less likely to receive the Gift Card.

I had an old scratched copy of The Tigger Movie on DVD that would no longer play anyway, so sent that in as the Disney DVD.

Well I received my $10.00 gift card yesterday. Just in time for Dark Knight next week.
I sent in a cracked second disc of Bug's Life.

It was only the first week at best buy when sleeping beauty was higher in price that the promotion applied.

I bought mine the day it came out so I paid full price and have the receipt to prove it. Should I still try? Also do you just send the disc in or the whole box? I have a brand new copy of Sword in the Stone unopened I don't want.

Did you pick up an envelope with the rebate offer when you bought it. I dont remember the expiration date. If not you could inquire at best buy or email them online.
I just sent the disk in. Since it didnt fit well and I received it.
Sword and Stone may have a good resale value online. Its better to send a cheap dvd.

I also bought the blu-ray 'cos of this promotion, and 'cos it came with the standard dvd packaged with it (still don't have a blu-ray player yet, but hopefully I will soon).

You needed the envelope that was in the store the first week to send in the dvd, and I think the purchase had to be within that first week. Best Buy might still have the envelopes available. I sent them some lame disney dvd that my daughter didn't want anymore. I forgot the title of it, but it wasn't an animated one, and she didn't want it. I calculated that with the $10.00 gift card, the blu-ray came out to around $15.99+tax, which was about what the standard dvd was going for on release week. I sent mine off in early November, so hopefully it'll come in soon.

Yeah I got the envelope when it was first out, just wasn't sure of the procedure. I ended up selling Sword and the Stone on eBay for $15 shipped. I got a brand new copy of 101 Dalmatians II that I don't want, I'll probably open that and send them the disc then.
