Does anybody know a retail store that has a decent price on:
Miracle Ratatouille Wall-E Nightmare Before Christmas Target is a no-brainer for the POTC movies, but I am hoping to find someplace that has Wall-E, Ratatouille and Nightmare before Christmas for around $20 and Miracle for around $15-$17. Also, did anybody else not receive their Toy Store 1 & 2 Coupons who mailed them right after they went up on the site? I received 7 coupons within a minute of each other earlier today, but my Toy Story ones weren't sent. I'm assuming that they aren't going to send them immediately so parents don't pester retailers about finding the titles prior to release date, but I'm not sure. |

As an update regarding the pricing, for those who are looking for Miracle, my area Super Target had a spot in their Blu-Ray selection marked for $19.99, but they were sold out. However, my area Wal-Marts and Targets had all of the Pixar Blu-Rays marked for $29.99. Has anybody seen or heard of any upcoming prices for Ratatouille or Wall-E which are closer to the $20.00 mark? I know I have seen these for that price before, so I don't want to use the coupon to get the price down to $22. I know that Best Buy had Up for 17.99 last week, it would be excellent if one the national B&M stores had something similar before my coupons expire in a month.
As far as the next time Pixar/Disney movies will be on sale, personally kind of shocked that none were on sale to coincide with the release of the Toy Story Blu's but we only know about Target so far not having any on sale. Perhaps some of the other stores might. Otherwise maybe when Toy Story 3 comes out in theaters they might go on sale. Who knows, but as long as you don;t print them out we have until the end of the year and for sure around Thanksgiving I imagine most if not all will be on a good sale by then. Hopefully in the $15 range somewhere would be nice :) |
Re: Upgrade Disney Blu-ray and get $8 coupon
Myself I am waiting to hopefully find them under $10.00 after the coupon. After getting Pirates of the Caribbean for $5.00 each I am hopeful they will all come in cheaply eventually.

Re: Upgrade Disney Blu-ray and get $8 coupon
Same as well, when I mentioned $15 I meant what they would be on sale for. Because I definitely want them for $10 or less after coupon.

Re: Upgrade Disney Blu-ray and get $8 coupon
Okay, I'm kinda stumped on this program.
From what it sounds like, you order (in advance) coupons of Disney titles you intend to upgrade to Blu Ray, by cutting out and sending UPCs and an order form. If I sent in an order now for "Toy Story", there's no way I'd have these by release week, right? |

Anyone know if it would be ok to print out the form with 30 titles listed, but only mail it back with 25 UPCs? I wasn't near my collection when I printed it, and just guessed at what I had/was willing to cut-up. Should I reprint the form to be safe? |

Don't know if anyone noticed, but why did they take the 3 Pirates and 2 National Treasures off the list?

It's all YMMV of course, but people have reported getting the emails (with coupon links) in a few days. Technically, the form says 6-8 weeks I think.

Get it to the post office before Monday morning and you most likely should get them in time of their 1st week on sale.
I find it kinda goofy that they have "Princess And The Frog" as a choice...like you're gonna pick it up on DVD!? |
Re: Upgrade Disney Blu-ray and get $8 coupon
Wow, guess I should have checked this page before I sold my Toy Story UTB, I'm quite pissed off right now to say the least.

Btw, how much did you get for the UTB. Debating whether to keep it or not. |

Btw, how much did you get for the UTB. Debating whether to keep it or not. Disney and Pixar's Toy Story and Toy Story 2 street on Blu-ray on 3/23, and I've just gotten a hands-on look at the discs. I'll have a more detailed review soon, but I wanted to offer a few comments for those of you who have been eagerly anticipating this release. First, the picture and sound quality is fantastic. In fact, I think it's everything you'd expect it to be. The extras are also very good, but this is where I wanted to comment. Having gone through the discs, it looks as if these Blu-rays are essentially designed to replace the 2005 2-disc DVD special edition releases. With just a few relatively minor exceptions, nearly everything that was included on those DVDs has carried over here to the Blu-rays. The Blu-rays also add much new material - a good 30-40 minutes worth of new special features per film, including sneak peeks of Toy Story 3 hosted by director Lee Unkrich. BUT... and this is a big one... these Blu-rays DO NOT include all of the special features from the stellar Ultimate Toy Box DVD set released in 2000. Much material from that set is missing on the Blu-rays. So the bottom line is that if you love these films, and you want ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING that's been released extras-wise, you need to keep both DVD sets. On the other hand, if you're not quite that picky, you can probably get away with selling the 2005 discs and you'll only be losing a few things (the introductions to the films, the multi-angle progressions and a couple other relatively minor items). In any case, I'd definitely recommend hanging on to the Ultimate Toy Box DVDs even if you do upgrade to Blu-ray. That set was just way too good to part with, and there's a lot of extras only available there. So... that one caveat aside, the new Blu-rays are pretty terrific and I think they were well worth the wait. I suspect you're going to love them |

If you want every single extra produced for the various Toy Story and Toy Story 2 DVDs, you're going to want to hang on to the UTB.

Man...I really hope they still honor requests. I sent my Pirates POP tabs in on the 3rd, but have yet to receive any coupons.

Besides the Pirates and NT movies which were most important to me, I had 7 other far less important possibilities. I just decided that if they are going to pull this type of indian-giving BS, then forget the whole thing. I'm not doing to submit nor upgrade any of them to BDs until the BDs are under $7 each w/o the Disney upgrade coupon. I'll just wait until they're dirt cheap some day, some year. I remember how the night before I ordered from Warner's Red2Blu program they took away Planet Earth and raised prices on the titles I wanted the most, so I only upgraded a few and never bothered with that program again. So I take full blame and responsibility for this happening. Their magic mirror (remember they have one from Snow White) knew that I had it on my to-do list today, so Disney took these away for everyone. The only shocker is they did it 2 days ago instead of this morning for the maximum "ha ha" to me. It's too coincidental these titles are the ones Target is selling for $12.99. Since it should be "no skin off Disney's nose" how much Target choses to sell them for (Disney will provide them with $8 regardless), if the Pirates and National Treasure titles reappear in April, it will show that Disney took them away because they didn't want people getting "too good of a deal"... much like how most people love it when the "rich" get soaked with higher taxes (even if it doesn't personally benefit them financially) or how so many cashiers get mad if you use legitimate coupons because they're jealous and malevolent rather than being happy someone saved money. Those are my long-winded opinions. |

In any event, if you were going to get the coupons, you should not have waited. First of all, you took a hell of a gamble that you could submit your request and have it processed in time for a particular sale. More importantly, the coupons expire 30 days after they're printed. There's no reason to wait to submit your request, and every reason to get them in as quickly as possible--as this experience makes clear. |

Yes, it would be a gamble that I would've gotten the coupons in time, but even if I didn't my understanding is the coupons remain in limbo until printed, so I would've waited for the next PotC or NT BD deals and printed them then. So of course I should deal with everything right away, but much like my taxes which I'm lucky to get in just before April 15th, I don't have time until near the end. That saying that if you don't work, you have time but no money to buy things. If you work, you have money to buy things but no time to enjoy them is so true. |

Nah, probably not, 'cuz the three Pirates titles were on sale for $13 at Target several weeks ago when I got them and the coupons were still available. Just an unhappy coincidence that the coupons went down when they did. Maybe it's just a temporary thing and they'll end up going back up on the site. :confused:
