There were about 20-30 "Nut Up" BD versions in the BB in Salem, Oregon.

Most were in a stand in the front of the store.

The bonus disc (which is a DVD, even in the BD release) was in an envelope inside. With the digital copy taking the #2 tray

Yeah, maybe LOL. I actually took a half day at work to be sure I would get one. Especially after heaaring about the Hurt Locker steelbook that seemed to only have one per store. They did also have tons of the regular BD's as well.

The first Best Buy I went to yesterday was right down the street from Woodfield Mall, THE Chicago area’s largest mall.

Actually the Oregon copies came up to the Seattle area. Picked mine up yesterday at the Bellevue, WA store and now can thank our neighbors to the south.

Stopped at my BB this morning. Not a single Nut Up. Looks like I'll just wait for it to drop in price.

Those of you with Meijer stores in your area, the "Zombieland" BD is $21.99, the cheapest I've seen anywhere. Since my receipt doesn't signify that I got the "Nut Up" edition, I'll be stopping back by later this week with the ad.

Went back to mine and while the shelf in the new release part was empty, there were maybe 12 left (on the shelves where titles are alphabetical) and the last one was this Nut Up Edition.

I went to 2 BB's today and came up empty handed. I'm going to try one more, and if I don't find it, I'll probably just order it from Amazon.

Zombieland... I accept defeat.

I returned to the scene of the crime today... just in case they found a lost shipment (we were nearby and had a little time to kill). They had ZERO Blu-ray discs of Zombieland in any way, shape or form. They also had a handful of regular DVDs. Not a "Nut Up" in sight in either format.

I am just accepting that I have lost this battle. If Best Buy ever closes it's doors ala Circuit City, I'll just have to let myself believe that me not shopping there anymore had something to do with it.

Bolstered by reports of people finding 30-40 copies at various Best Buys, I made a three-hour trek to all area Best Buys. I found zero (0) copies of Zombieland on Blu-Ray...at all. Until I went to the last Best Buy on my trip and saw a guy walking away with the last Blu-Ray copy of Zombieland. It was the Nut Up or Shut Edition. Best Buy can lick my sweaty nut sack.

Could not find any at 3 stores here either. If anyone can find any extras, I'd be willing to pay!

I went to three stores today and found none. I came home and ordered it from Amazon. I'd be willing to pay for one, but two of the stores didn't have a single Blu-ray copy in stock.

Didn't look like there were many -- probably less than 10, but I might have not seen a slot's worth of them (this was a small displayer).







In any case, he's probably right, but the UPC is 043396331570.
Did the outside wrapper have a different UPC code?

no, the Nut Up edition doesn't have another special UPC covering the default one.

No Zombieland Blu-Rays at all in Morgantown, WV or Tarentum, PA. Also, the only Planet Hulk blus that I saw did not have the comic or poster.

Re: Best Buy Weekly Ad: January 31 - February 6, 2010

So Wed. AM I called the BB back that said they were holding a copy for me. The one I went to the night before and there was a big line so I went to the shelves and the guy said no such thing existed. Just before I saw this thread. So who answers? That guy. He says it does not exist and he won't check the copy at the front even though the woman said it had Nut up on it.

So I call three other BB. None have it but one says another one has five. Call them and they just have normal version and say the Nut Up does not exist in Blu-Ray.

So I decided to call first store back in hopes a different person answered. Sure enough it was someone else and I asked them to check and the guy said "it's a blu-ray and it says nut up on the front". DOHHHHHHHHH.

So I went back and grabbed it. They had no copies of Zombieland in any form in stock at this point.

It would have been quicker to stand in the damn line in the first place.
