Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Ollies is based here in south-central PA, and I've shopped there for probably 30 years. While they may be a BL competitor overall, their media selection still doesn't match up. They get interesting...

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Ooh, me too! Had an itch for Seuss maybe 6 months ago, when the BD set went on my wants list. From the reviews I recall, some of the DVD's were blatantly unrestored, which didn't leave much choice....

Didn't see the standard version, but did briefly check out the 30th Anniversary version with the see-through cover. Per DVDCompare, the 30th Anniversary release has completely different content:...

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Are you suggesting BL wasn't interested in this dump because

1) the price was too high
2) the quantity was too small
3) they are simply less interested in DVD's today
4) something else

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

I bought a Something About Mary set today. The 2 DVD's come in a trifold digipak, with the third fold being a pocket with no contents. The photo at Amazon suggests something should be there, but...

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

I've stopped keeping up with the new arrivals, as they've been largely rather dull. But a few unusual titles caught my eye:

There's Something More About Mary ... $5 (the copies months ago were...

Both. The first is the cover artwork, and the second is the slipcover. See the photos (and captions) at http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B000F9RBBC?ie=UTF8&index=3 .

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Visited the two York, PA stores today. West York had the new Blu's and the 30-70% off sign, but otherwise was mostly a disappointment. East York, on the other hand, had many of the titles...

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Visited the local BL on Saturday for the 20% off sale, but came away with just a 3-pack of canned air. I could tell they'd received a few new titles (i.e. two new copies of "Gilda", not in that...

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Visited two stores last night, on the way home from my parents' house. Nothing earth-shattering to report, but I did finally grab a $3 copy of Scooby Doo on Zombie Island. :)

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Four copies, fool screen only. Sorry. But I shall keep my eyes open from now on...just like I check every copy of Woody Allen's "Sweet and Lowdown" (but not at BL).

The local store put out a...

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Yes and not sure. I bought my copy from Europe to get the extras, and hadn't realized this was yet another Sony blunder. Likely full screen, but will double check.

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Visited 4 BL's over the last few days. I must have arrived just days before the delivery truck, as only my visit today to the Lancaster store revealed any stock worth mentioning. The $6.88 Disney...

Ooh, thanks for the heads-up. These have been OOP for a long time. Out of curiosity, was it in a snap case with a slashed bar code?

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Picked up 20th Century Fox's "In Old Arizona" for $3. While I'm not usually big on westerns, this is now the oldest film I own that isn't silent (1928). It's also a "Fox Films" release, before the...

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Bought Mr. & Mrs. Smith Unrated at the Ephrata BL (new to me, but not sure how long it's been sitting there), and was eying the lone copy of Scooby Doo on Zombie Island. Ephrata and Lancaster each...

I don't recall the comment, don't own the movie, and don't know how much research you did, but DVDCompare (http://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=1075) and the review here on DVDTalk...

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

It's true that you can't easily use a generic case, but it's fairly easy to find a replacement tray for $2-$3 (i.e. some unwanted title at BL or another closeout/video store), unsnap the broken tray,...

In addition to many of the titles Deet listed, I was surprised to find a number of Warner snap-case titles at the local BL:

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

I was in Ephrata, PA yesterday and was shocked to find a new BL on route 272, in the shopping center with the Weis Market. They're actually so new, the store isn't listed on biglots.com! I asked an...
