Re: Target $5 off BD printable coupon

Took final advantage of this great coupon today, on Shaun of the Dead. (I'd pick up District 9 tomorrow, but it's already on the way from Amazon.)

Many thanks again for this deal, OP.

Re: Target $5 off BD printable coupon

Just got back from Best Buy (62nd & Broadway - NYC). They would not accept the Target coupon. But they did let me exchange an unopened Wii game (w/o receipt) for $40 credit which I used to pay for BoB in full. I actually have $2.50 leftover on the card. SCORE!!!!

FunkDaddy,
Can you answer my question?

Where was it located? Main Blu-ray aisle, end cap?

I've been to multiple Targets and can't even find a shelf tag.

Re: Target $5 off BD printable coupon

Ah, I didn't see your question before. It was in the main section, toward the bottom, clearly marked with a sale sign. Note that I didn't see it at a smaller Target, but had luck at a Super Target that had a much larger Blu-ray selection

Anyone else have this problem before trying to use the Snatch coupon? Ended up not buying it because I couldn't use it. I'm not sure how to prove to them that it was a genuine coupon.
Call Target Corporate HQ and report this. T: 612-304-6073

Here's the site that was promoting Snatch Blu-ray $5 coupon.

I didn't have any problems using a print-out, but YMMV, obviously. It is a high-resolution enough scan that it prints out pretty well, so your chances are decent for getting it accepted.

If you bothered to slow down for one minute, you'd find that the policy is posted, and the policy is clear. It's available on their website, and there's a big sign with all the terms available at the Guest Services counter, where you actually do the price matching. The only part I've found ambiguous is the restriction on "limited time" sales, which some employees have interpreted as excluding things like 3-day sales, when I believe its intent is to only exclude doorbuster-type sales.

The fact is though, that the employees do not follow the policy to the letter, to our benefit. I don't understand why you're so intent on complaining about this and pointing it out, other than maybe you got the raw end of the enforcement of the policy. Tough cookies. In my experience, just try again later with a different employee or try another store altogether, and you'll usually get something favorable. I'm not going to bite the hand that feeds me, but you seem intent on gnawing it off.

Thanks, the "Super" part is my problem I think...

The policy says Store coupons. It doesn't say Wal-Mart coupons. However, the coupon doesn't scan.

It may be posted in Hawaii (everything is perfect there!), but it was not posted in Illinois (maybe it is now, I haven't been there in a few days) ... I asked the girl and the manager she called over. All they had was their "cheat sheet" card, which they weren't sure if they could show me.

I'm not biting any hands ... I am relaying my experience and offering others information as to how I did or did not get the deal, just like everybody else.

I can second this comment. In the stores I have visited (Northern Illinois stores), I have NOT seen any posted policy, either. Every time I PMed at the CS desk, I took the time to look for any policy on the wall, at the counter, etc. I saw nothing. I never had a problem with getting the PM and using the coupon in the same transaction.

D'ohboy, not neccessarily.

Some stores, "Super" or not, seem to have 2 aisle of BD's while others only have one. In the Milwaukee area I was not finding Wild Bunch, SOTD or Terminator 3 anywhere on the north side of town. I checked out 2 stores on the south side, neither were "Super" Targets, yet they both had the larger selection.

I discovered this by checking the "Find It At A Target Store" option after searching for each title on target.com ... so give that a shot and maybe some store in your area will have it.

Thanks for the suggestion; never thought of that.
Guess what, nowhere even remotely close...

Re: Target $5 off BD printable coupon

Does anyone know the Target in-store price of District 9 (BD)?
The Target website lists it as $19.99, but I know that doesn't always reflect in-store?

Tack on the $5 coupon and $14.99 is solid price for this.

Re: Target $5 off BD printable coupon

Just used it on District 9 BD, which came out to $14.99.

Man, I do love this coupon and will miss it when it's gone...

Re: Target $5 off BD printable coupon

Just used the coupon for the last time for (500)Days of Summer for $19.99 and District 9 for $14.99. It'll be sad to see it go.

15??? I think I used it 15 times in the first 2-3 days after the coupon came out. I'm easily at 30+ uses. You got me thinking, though. I'm going to count when I get home...

Re: Target $5 off BD printable coupon

My Christmas Wish:

That we would recieve our Disney Blu Ray Upgrade $8 off coupons via email by Thursday the 24th so we could take advantage of this glorious $5 off Blu Target coupon before it expires.

Wouldn't that be awesome?

I'm just sayin'.

Yeah, it's sad. Purchased Up! and District 9 today with the intention of stopping but thought, shit, I have Thursday completely off and a hot cup of joe on the way over for a last minute Target trip would be the perfect topping.

Just wish they had more on sale for $9.99 - $14.99 that I was interested in.

Re: Target $5 off BD printable coupon

I used it three times and returned two of those items. Reservoir Dogs and Terminator were the ones I returned after reading some pretty bad reviews. Office Space was the only one I ended up keeping. I got a bunch of new releases through the Walmart/Bing 20% rebate, so I didn't need to get those through Target. I went into Target today hoping I'd see an unadvertised Extract for $19.99, but my Target didn't have any version of this movie. Where's the love for Extract?
