Tower Records coupons: online & B&M, Tru Calling $34.99!

Just got a holiday gift guide mailing from Tower Records with an insert sheet full of coupons. One set is good for this week starting Friday 11/12-11/17. The "next week" set is good 11/18-11/23. The "this week" coupons good in store only include $5 off any CD over $14.99, $10 off any CD Box Set over $39.99, and $5 off any music DVD over $15.99. The "next week" in store coupons are for $5 off any DVD over $14.99, $10 off any TV DVD over $39.99, and a couple of non-media-related coupons. All coupons are good only off regular priced items.

The better deal as it seems to be usable on sale items are the 2 online coupons, each good for $5 off + free shipping on any order of $30 or more at tower.com. Code PRESENT is good 11/10-11/17, and code PRESENT2 is good 11/18-11/24. Coupons say they are only good on US orders, and you must be a signed-in user to use the codes.

I quickly looked over the Tower site which is typically overpriced on nearly everything, but they do have Tru Calling, The Commish, and West Wing Season 3 for $39.99, a decent 33% discount off the $59.99 SRP of those titles, making them an even lower $34.99 after coupon. According to DVDPriceSearch, that would make it the cheapest price on Tru Calling.

If anyone finds other decent deals, please post.

The 10 dollar off any 39.99 box set rocks hard.

I went ahead and picked up Tru Calling. I don't think that price will be beat on release day. Thanks for the coupon info!

As a note, used DVDs from Tower are customer returns, not used DVDs traded in. Every one I have ever gotten from them has been pristine with all inserts.

I picked up The Vanishing and Mon Oncle for $31.23 shipped, not bad for 2 criterions.

Marx Brothers boxset for me... Well worth the $34.99 for a 6 disc set! Thanks for the post... I hope I receive those coupons in the mail. Would love to get the $10 off at B&M...

now is this strictly over $39.99 or is it $39.99 and above. Tru calling is currently priced at $39.99 and i was wondering if you knew if this coupon would apply to this set

The B&M store coupon is good for $10 off $39.99 or higher, but this is off regular prices only, so I don't think it will work on Tru Calling. You should be able to use the $5 off code on the tower website though to make it $34.99.
