I Wonder how many people got a slipcover, when i went to pick mine up from an order online none were on the shelf's and half of them behind the counter had no slipcovers.
The lady who i picked it up from was surprised at the price and took extra long making
sure it was the correct upc etc

Just went in for a price adjustment from my earlier purchase this week. $20 back in the bank baby. With the $10 off Snow White coupon and this adjustment worked out to paying $12.49 plus tax for SW and Pin. Im happy with that

Mine had no slipcover either. Additionally, the case was slimmer than the slipcover version you'd find at other stores. Same exact cover, discs and extras, but in a slimmer case. So, even if you acquired a slipcover elsewhere, it would be too big for the Best Buy version.

Sounds like Bolt, where the reprint slimmer Blu-rays didn't come with slipcovers either -- but they save space.

Picked up mine earlier today - no slipcover (the CSR said that "All of the ones they sent us for online orders are like that" - they also pulled any from the shelves and Snow White displays.
With that said though, the case does appear to be "fat" (I don't know how it should normally be, but it's the same size as the Sleeping Beauty BD)

FYI. While I was in Target today, I noticed they had 3 Pinocchio's on the shelf. All were "fat" cases, but only 1 had a slipcover.

Just an FYI, I didn't have any problem getting them to apply the coupon to my in-store pickup order here in Louisville. I already had the DVD versions of both, but this is the kind of deal where it's a no-brainer to upgrade.

Re: Pinocchio BD -- $9.99 @ Best Buy Online
Ok so after getting Snow White on Blu for 10 bucks on Tuesday, I was able to get Pinocchio for 10 bucks today. I also tried to get the 15 dollar gift card, but the manager wouldn't do it because I was price matching the website's price. Didn't make much sense to me because the website was also offering the gift card promo. Called 1-888-Best-Buy and told them the situation. The phone op agreed with me and is sending me a 20 dollar gift card in the mail! So basically, I just got Snow White and Pinocchio for FREE! So while best buy hasn't been that great since Circuit City closed (some could argue since way before that) I defiantly got the Best Buy this week.

I picked my up today on my down to Virginia, and I actually did get a slip cover on this one. Guess I got a bit lucky.

Re: Pinocchio BD -- $9.99 @ Best Buy Online
I went to three best buys today, all of which had plenty of copies in stock (which their employees admitted) but mysteriously couldn't find any of them? Gee, I wonder why.
I ended up ordering online, doing instore pickup, calling and complaining when they weren't going to pull the movies today, and then convincing the CSR to price match wal-mart/take out the coupon to eventually walk out with Snow White, Pinocchio, and a $15 gift card for $22 and change. Sweet.

Thanks for the heads-up OP!
I tried the on-line in-store pick-up at a few So Cal locations. The only BB close to me that had it in stock was the Cerritos store. I received two conformation emails, then a third email about 10 minutes later saying they no longer had it in stock. I had to call BB online, the CSR couldn't find any stores in the surrounding area that had any, so he said they would ship one out to me as soon as they get them back in stock. Free shipping, saves me a trip to BB.
I thought I would never get a chance to double-dip and upgrade to Blu, but for $10 I'll buy Disney DVD's all day. I won't go higher than $15 for any blu (I've stopped buying SD DVD's altogether) I might just change that to a $10 cap from now on.

Re: Pinocchio BD -- $9.99 @ Best Buy Online
I did in-store pickup here and didn't have a problem, although I had to go through several people who had to verify that it was the right product. After hearing four people go through the whole "Is it full screen? *looks at the case* Yes it's full screen" routine, I snapped a bit and said, "They're all full screen! It's an old movie!"
Anyway, after the Snow White and Pinocchio deals, is Sleeping Beauty the only other Disney animated film (non-Pixar) available in the combo pack? I only have DVD capability right now, but I plan to get Blu-ray someday, so I'm jumping on these deals now. I mean, $9.99 is a good deal just for a classic Disney DVD! I'm sure it's too much to hope for to catch Sleeping Beauty at such a great price, but I was wondering if there was anything else for which I should be on the lookout.

I got Snow White on Tuesday and ordered/picked up Pinocchio last night. Took the receipt in and they gave me the $15 GC no problem. Was also able to use the PM at Walmart for Snow White and the $10 coupon. Lovin the deal!
