I've heard bad things about the mail in rebates at fye...
anyone else?

I've only done a few of them, but I've never had a problem.

If you want more info on FYE and rebates please review all the past threads on the topic. It has been discussed to death. We should respect the OP's thread and keep it focused on the deal he is discussing....otherwise it becomes a store forum thread and gets moved.

They also set up a new $4.99 after rebate rack. The date range for these and the $2.99 after rebate rack seems to be 4/6 through 4/26. I picked up from the $4.99 rack:

Bachelor Party
Days of Thunder
Election
Basic Instinct: Ultimate Edition

Lots more on there but I can't remember which, except for that perennial discount rack favorite Mean Girls and the standard version of Speed.

As for FYE's rebate system, the earliest one I ever sent in just showed up on their tracking web site after a month or two. I used the white/yellow sticker UPC price tag, not the DVD box UPC, and it seems to say the rebate is successfully processing.

A ton of SNL DVDs are $2.99 after rebate at FYE right now.

What I saw was Best of:

Dana Carvey
Eddie Murphy
Dan Akroyd
Tom Hanks
Steve Martin
Jimmy Fallon
Will Ferrell Vol. 1
Will Ferell Vol. 2
Phil Hartman
Gilda Radner
John Belushi

These, the movies described in the original post, and others are $7.99 and a $5 rebate prints out at the register

If you do the FYE rebate deals alot, I'd recommend getting the Backstage Pass. It's another 10% off the before rebate price. I've had it since Oct 2005 and it's more than paid for itself. And I've had no problems with the rebates so far.

Rebates, as an employee and hating them, another story for another day. There are many baseball movies (because of the start of the season) that are $1.99 after MIR and are on sale for around $7 or $8, lilke *61, the Major League trilogy of movies, Little Big League, and some others. Without a doubt the Back to the Future is a great deal, as I bought it on sale, used my backstage page to get it for $16.20 and then the MIR. Saw it at Walmart the other day for $22

HTN

A couple of more $2.99 titles after $5 MIR.

Angel Heart
Drop Dead Fred
First Blood (Ultimate Edition)
National Lampoon's Van Wilder
Open Water
The Punisher
Resevoir Dogs

Just an FYI on the Back to the Future rebate, it is on sale for $17.99 with $8 MIR ending 04/15/06.

misterchimpy

Also for $2.99 AR

Girl With a Pearl Earring

Just wanted to confirm that these deals are available at strawberries too.

For $2.99 after MIR I got:

Angel Heart SE
Swimming with Sharks SE (not mentioned previously)
SNL Dan Aykroyd
SNL John Belushi

Also saw with the $1.99 after MIR baseball movies 2 that are pretty good: For Love of the Game and The Sandlot.
I can also confirm that the end date for these rebates is April 26th and mail in by May 26th.

GMan2819

A few titles not mentioned yet:

When Worlds Collide $5 after MIR
King Kong (1976) $5 after MIR
The Gift $4 after MIR
King Of New York 2 Disc Spec Ed $3 after MIR

Cosmic Bus

Does anyone know if the Godzilla titles that are on sale for $9.99 (Vs. Mechagodzilla, Against Mechagodzilla, Tokyo SOS, and All-Out Attack) have rebates on them?

Afrit

Can I purchase say 3 rebate items on the same receipt or must they be seperate transactions?

DVParker

If you purchase all of your DVDs together, the cash register will print one rebate form with all of the DVDs you purchased on it.

GMan2819

That's only if the DVDs are part of the same rebate promotion. You get separate rebate forms if they're not. The Back To The Future rebate is a different program than the others.

James Anderson

don't want to mess up this thread but

I saw the Buy 1 Get 1 Free deal table at my local FYE
had the Ultimate Oliver Stone Collection for $50

so 2 of those for $25 each seems good to me.. i may go get two in the morning.

DVParker

Thank you, I didn't realize there were separate promotions.
I purchased a bunch today. I got one rebate form for Back To The Future and one rebate form for the rest of the DVDs.

These DVDs (already mentioned) are $8.99 with only a $4 rebate:
Election $4.99 after $4 MIR
King Kong (1976) $4.99 after $4 MIR
The Gift $4.99 after $4 MIR

I saw this DVD (not mentioned):
Aliens (Special Edition NOT Collector's Edition) $4.99 after $5 MIR
I did not purchase it, so I can't guarantee it will ring up right.

DVParker

There are two versions of National Lampoon's Van Wilder, the Unrated version and the R-rated version. The Unrated version is the one that is $2.99 after $5 MIR. I thought I should mention it just in case someone finds an old R-rated version.

Strawberries (and most probably FYE too) has b1g1f on PSP movies (they are $19.99 each).
