It's a must upgrade, especially at that price.

And I don't think you even need the receipt. They can pull up records of all your purchases via your membership account. Got my HDTV just before the change. It is SO going back to Costco when it dies.

Now Sin City is available for a decent price! Already purchased the UK version a bit back. Went yesterday and picked up the Tombstone and Armageddon deal.

re: Costco discounts and deals on Blu-ray

I haven't decided if I'm going to take back that old player, but I appreciate i86time's defense that a person simply following a policy that was in place at the time is not a criminal or bad person even if the policy has changed now. Considering I've NEVER returned any used electronics item to Costco in my life, if I did it once on an item that broke I won't have the suicidal guilt trip that Dominay would like me to have.

My bigger issue may be that it's on my father's Costco account (and he died long ago), so who knows if they'd find an excuse that the original purchaser must be present.

Anybody find Sin City at a Portland, OR-area Costco? No luck at Aloha and Hillsboro locations.

Is this still valid? I saw the BDs, but no sign about the $10 off at my Costco today.

When I bought them earlier this week, the sign said it was until June 30. Right after they scanned the second one, the $10 discount came off.

Pictured are: Princess and the Frog 3-disc combo pack, Toy Story combo pack, Up 4-disc combo pack, Alice in Wonderland Un-anniversary edition, Cars DVD, Wall-E DVD

Selection may vary by location. Limited to stock on hand.
So this works on both the Toy Story movies which are 24.99 each, minus 8.50, equals 17.49 for each Blu-ray combo pack with Toy Story 3 movie ticket. Pretty good deal in my opinion.

Not quite as good as $15 for both, back on release week at Target, but probably the best deal since.

Picked up Sin City today. As well as Crimson Tide and Apacolypto for $10.99. They also had No Country for Old Men and Gone in 60 Seconds for $10.99.

In non-Disney Blu-Ray sales, I saw the original talking horse movie of 2008, Sex and the City, for $12.99.

Also saw the $12.99 blu's appear today. Picked up Sin City (which beats Amazon by $4.) Of the $10.99 titles listed two posts above, include Pearl Harbor.

re: Costco discounts and deals on Blu-ray

Just saw everything mentioned at my Costco. They had about 6 each of Sin City and Surrogates (w/ slip).

$10.99 titles:

Pearl Harbor
Gone in 60 Seconds
Crimson Tide
Apocalypto
No Country for Old Men
Miracle at St. Anna

I would have bought Pearl Harbor if it was the Director's Cut. Until then I'll stick with my 4-disk DVD.

Laser disc players have always been lifetime, DVD and blu-ray players still are lifetime.
Dvd and Blu-ray players are not lifetime unless your Costco is way different than the ones by me in which I have asked many managers and it's not lifetime. Why would they, we would just upgrade each year and cost them money then.

No, they are lifetime at every Costco in the country. The few exceptions to the lifetime policy are in writing, and players are not exceptions. I guarantee you that I could return my player to the same managers that you spoke to. And they can do it because most people aren't assholes that would return something just to upgrade. I just returned a player that broke after 3 years, and bought a new one.

People buy from Costco because of the policy (they sure as heck don't have the best prices), and most people don't abuse it.

That's why I used the Jedi Mind Trick when I returned my year-old blu-ray player to Costco.
"You will take back the blu-ray player and refund my money."
"We will take back the blu-ray player and refund your money."
It worked like a charm. Thanks Mr. Lucas.
Oddly, this doesn't seem to work at other stores like Best Buy. I'm not sure why.
