It's an essential set for BL & BK collector's. I paid full retail (or close).

I trekked to another store and found Like Crazy, finally.

Also saw:
Rebel w/out a Cause 2-Disc
Aviator 2-Disc
Poseidon 2-Disc
LOTR 70's animated
The Witches

and a few others such as one Ronald Reagan movie whose name I've since forgotten. Sorry.

PhantomStranger

I also saw a mini-series about George Wallace.

Saw a shelf full of some titles marked $7

These, along with Sex & the City (Wedding Album) and a couple of Harry Potter Ultimate Edition Sets. Think I noticed ones for Year 2 and Year 6 (Note: It looked like the one in the link, but it was DVD, not BD)

MooMooMooMoo

It seems weird; everyone except BL is dropping media prices; BL is raising there's!

I saw two complete sets of Chuck on the shelf yesterday, along with some extras of Season 4 and 5. They were priced at $8.

The Warner sets will be 2 for $10 black friday... I've been wasting my 5 off 20 coupons on them.. conceded to the cut out for $5.25

hasslein

One store had their black friday display out... Picked up Bakshi's Lord of the Rings BD 2.88 (cut out) & Bustin Loose DVD 1.88 and I had a 5 off 20 coupon knocking them down to 2.17 & 1.41

Saw a clear Saturday Night Fever digipack where the disc was a discoball. $5

That'sAllFolks

Yeah I saw that too. I think I would've bought it if the disc wasn't loose. It was pretty cool, I thought.



yeah I checked my store the other day, hoping for that, but to no avail.

Surfinhank

Saw a new one-sided waterfall display of kids titles today. It was mostly Bob the Builder, Thomas the train and Barney. No Black Friday display, so I guess they're holding it for the actual day.

Kevy

Need some help-advice:

I seen the Saturday Night Fever digipack that was
mentioned above and also a non digipack version
at the same location. Is the digipack like a collectors
item? Or is it just a different packaging. Love that movie
and im debating which one I should get. Both are $5

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Rexxriot

They have a $5 off $25 Buzz club coupon that's good Wednesday only. If they have the Black Friday display out early, I might use it.

^ Yeah I just mentally put it in BF category because Thanksgiving has become...

I can't answer this.

But I can give a similar - "John Carpenter's The Thing".

In 2004 the film was given a second DVD, now in a digipak with transparent slipcover (also now in anamorphic widescreen, just a note; not relevant to the story).

The third release came a year later. The '04 disc was put into a standard case - this was the very same DVD, just a repackaging. The price also dropped a bit, from $19.98 to $14.99 (yes, I kept records; part of my DVD library index, original retail price list).

A similar thing my have happened to "Saturday Night Fever". If that were the case; I would go with the digipack, I recall it having the flashier packaging.

Just to finish "The Thing"; the digipak had an error. There was a flap inside, but no insert. None were issued. I ended up finding at Big Lots! the first DVD edition some years back (same extras/content, minus anamorphic). I gave it a shake and heard the sound of a booklet. I took that and placed it under the flap.

Now that I think about it; I need to do that for the 2005 re-re-release.

The power of being anal.

One of the two "Ma and Pa Kettle" volumes also had a flap with no insert. This was when they had a ton of Universal DVDs at Wal-mart for $4.88. When I found out mine had no insert, I checked inside 2 more copies and neither of those had inserts either.

Collectability be damned. FWIW, me personally, I'd always choose a keepcase over a crappy digipack (just as I'd pick a CD in a jewel case over one in a digipack). If, for no other reason, just because they offer better protection for the discs.
Digipacks were shoved down the public's throats as "collectibles" and "green/eco". But, in truth, they were only created to save the studios/record companies on manufacturing costs (paper is cheaper than plastic) and shipping costs (paper is lighter than plastic).

Just hit the local BL (Pearl St Tacoma, WA). The manager on duty told me ALL BF dvd's & blu's were out. With the coupon I managed to spend a little over $22 for resale. It's safe to say that BL doesn't expect DVD's to be a big BF seller this year..........

hasslein

The first warner tv set I bought today scanned at $5 so I don't think you have to buy in increments of 2 to get them for $5 even though it states you must in ad.

berigan

There are tons of dvds at the Fayetteville Ga store, and 99% of it (save the the same tv sets that have been around for months) is worthless. They just put up clearance tags with different colors(should have taken a pic) but most of the crap isn't even in the 4 colors shown above.
I guess since they can't sell crappy dvds, they decided not to bother ordering in any good titles :/

MooMooMooMoo

Exactly same at Pearl on the clearance; new sign; few discs with those color of tags.

Thanks for the detailed list, deet.

I saw most, if not all, of those at the NoHo store on Vineland Ave this morning. As well as the animated Cat in the Hat and Eggs & Ham blu-rays.... all packed into one, lone, single, tiny waterfall display. Oh, how I miss the good old days....
