^ Could end up being less at Target with the $5 coupon.

The director's cut. All other Standard DVDs everywhere else are theatrical version only.

Blu-ray has both.

Yeah, looks like Target might have a "lower than advertised" price for Terminator Blu at $15.99. With $5 coupon, that would be $11.99

Yeah, well, you know, inflation. A $5 coupon just doesn't go as far as it used to.

Glad I had the $5 coupon for the Night at the Museum 2 blu ray/dvd combo pack because it isn't $20 (well, $19.99). It rang up as $24.99 & the coupon knocked it down to $19.99. The ad just said "low price" so couldn't argue it. Plus it was the last combo pack they had in stock.

Also this is a manufacturer's $5 coupon off Snatch blu-ray, combine with the other at Target for $10 off whatever their price is. Anyone check yet?

And yes, at Target you can use 1 Target and 1 manufacturer's coupon per item.

Say Trevor, does this mean than the theatrical cut is NOT included on the Target 2-disc version?

If that's the case, what is the second disc for?

If the second disc is the useless "digital copy," then how does the single-disc also claim to feature a digital copy (on the sticker on the front)?

Damn, this so so confusing...

Oh, and my local Target was selling the Blu-ray for $19.99 today, not $15.99, sadly.

I'm afraid I can't really help right now, went to Target tonight but not really interested in that title so I didn't look.

Sometimes, digital copies are available through download, no extra disc included or needed.

I'm sure someone else will help you (maybe in the Terminator threads?), but I'll look at them next time I go to a Target, which should be tomorrow.

Went to my local Wally World last night to get Terminator and NatM for $10 each and they were selling for 15 and change.

Show them the online $10 price to probably get a pricematch.

My Target had NatM for $24.99. Would they price-match and then accept coupon?

Darn. They were $10 earlier in the week, part of their price war with Amazon I guess.

Yes, but to pricematch at Target you generally have to show them a current printed ad.

Starting work on next week's thread/tables.
