Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

I'm still waiting to see the Douglas, Hitchcock & Dracula boxes. Guessing they won't hit Wa state at this late date.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

I see it like anytime i check places for stuff i really want, u got a 50/50 chance of it being there or not if u in area u have other collectors or by chance resellers who hit place to get cheap and sel for twice the value anytime. just be aware and u never know the next trip in u might score what u really want at time.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Per an email 20% off everything on NYD. No coupon required.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Thanks. Picked up 'Terms of Endearment' and 'Outpost: Black Sun' for $1.85 and $1.16 respectively after 20% off and a $5 off $15 coupon.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

I received an email that stated the 20% off sale is extended to Friday January 3rd.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Seeing all the posts regarding Big Lots and media I stopped in my closest store earlier today. They had a fairly large 4 sided display of DVD and BR but one side was pretty much up against a display of reading glasses and there was no way I could squeeze in about a foot of space. A very quick glance but I didn't see anything I could not live without and the only "special" case I saw was a Mutant Ninja Turtles collection in some sort of Turtle Shell shaped case.

I was going to add they were still offering 20% off total purchase even with signage indicating New Years Day only but I had not seen the email showing it was extended.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

I noticed my store has like a metal book rack of media but one side is like only a foot wide or 2 lol, i think some stores try cram out to much to make room in back. gotta check my place and see if any new worthy stock is out or get any i real want for any reason at time since already got a good score at thrift most sealed and one not but watchable.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Nothing worth using the 20% coupon on. I bought a 100 pack of paper disc sleeves for $4 with the discount.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

*Still* no new media here... bummer... We purchased some Christmas closeout stuff (only a couple things at that - mostly for kid projects), some pajama pants (on sale + the coupon), some Pfeffernusse (50% off + coupon! I love these things!), and tortilla chips.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Had chance check store here and some new stock like collections and rest same stock. got some i really wanted and by chance a collection dvd. saw some movie collections not seen before , but read some reviews on amazon and it mixed about the collections. so can try get and do a marathon kinda thing or check details and make sure right region and not all blu ray so not stuck with a br colection i cant play right now lol. can only guess reviews read is stuff from amazon direct. and biglot get right stuff so not have hassles with so many or some dvd or movies returned for any reason.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Wish they'd get more 4K titles.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

I don't think the studios are selling enough UHDs to have a lot of leftover inventory. UHDs are still fairly niche and aimed at well-heeled collectors and home theater owners.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

It’s Mummy mania at my BL! Not only was there still plenty of Legacy Collections available, but there’s also the glow-in-the-Dark cover AND the Best Buy Steelbook!

But at least I finally snagged the lone copy of Planet/Apes franchise.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Here in BL the only Mummys are the Brandon (I forget his last name) remakes.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

I recently scored the bourne collection after was not sure to get but lucky was able get next day since not sure traffic really buy any media much now since i see it a mess kinda from anyone try find certain titles anytime, but by chance leave good stuff behind and guess now some or many only really get media to either collect what real want or to resell later anytime. saw the planet apes collection, but wish was the new franchise in ways. they do have variety good stuff but it all depends how bad i want stuff at time.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Seeing how 4k movies are still kinda new, not sure when they gonna get any and just gotta look for any at time u check any store.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

They did have a handful of titles a while back, most notably E.T. I think I scored Everest for $5.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

The BL "superstore" closest to my house has totally emptied about 20% of the floor space in 1 section at the front of the store. Wonder if they're shutting down soon?

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

The one near me did that too recently. They used the space to create a "furniture showcase" area. It's a franchise-wide attempt to look a little more upscale.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Several months back one of my contacts here told me BL corporate is doing upgrades/remodels at many of the stores along with layout changes - that one was included. They did a similar deal before starting a massive layout change. Still no new flooring, ceiling tiles, paint, shelving, etc. but they're not finished and that empty area moves around the store based on what's getting changed next. That could be what's happening at your store.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

The stores near me in NJ all did that - and filled the space with furniture. IMHO just an an inconvenience. Now You have have to walk further back into the store to get to the stuff You're going there for (movies, electronics, food, etc). :thmbsdwn:

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Yeah, my store is new and took over an old Toys-r-Us. It was clean and shiny from the start, but have recently expanded the center section for a lot more furniture.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Yea, my place did a whole change around by moving alot that was to the left side to the middle and so left side now all furniture stuff and what was in front is now moved to back as for food stuff, and stuff that was on left like decor and misc house wears was moved to front so u gotta walk past house towels and misc to get to the foods and cleaning stuff. media was in left and now to right in like corner kinda on a med size rack and so if no buyers stuff is just either stored right or pilled up till anything sells lol. i dont go much but have idea what got and where so get out sooner lol. place kinda mapped n brain so not be too lost lol.

Here's the link for the coupon as it appears you'll need it for any one of the 3 days:

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

I should probably know this, but don't offhand---I have a $5 off $15 coupon and pretty sure they stack with the 20% off. So do I need to make sure I have $19-20 stuff in my hands so the 20% off doesn't knock me below $15?

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Yes, those $5 off $15 coupons stack. They take the 20% off *before* applying those coupons so make sure the price *after* 20% off is high enough to trigger the coupon. $18.75 minimum to get both discounts (assuming they do the % properly). I'd go for $19-$20 just in case...

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Hope one of the 2 local stores has something new.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

in my experience, they take the $5 off first, then apply the 20% discount. One time I had a cashier refuse to stack both discounts, even though I showed her on the $5 off coupon where it said you could. There was an angry mob behind me in a long line, so I just let it go. Every other time (probably about 8 times total) they have stacked them though.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

I once had 2 of those coupons during a 20% off sale. I had what I thought was enough to allow both to trigger at the $15 off $75 price point (roughly $110 of stuff in the cart). When I checked out the price didn't seem quite right so I checked the receipt when I got home. The 20% came off first, then one of the coupons still triggered at $15 off $75 but that took the total below the $75 threshold and the 2nd became a $5 off $15. I'd have spent less had I had another $5 item in the cart as both coupons would have triggered $15 off $75. What made it worse is I asked at the checkout and was assured the coupons came off first. It *may* make a difference in the order they are scanned but I didn't pay attention to that part. At this point I let them do the 20% off and then go "Oh... I have this, too!" and hand them the coupon(s).

$110 @ 20% off = $88
$15 off $75 = $73
$5 off $15 = $68

vs.

$115 @ 20% off = $92
$15 off $75 = $77
$15 off $75 = $62

It'll be interesting to see if they've changed that - I do have a coupon I intend to redeem over the weekend.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

a ton of restock in one of the stores but its all the same titles as before, with a single steelbook copy of PJ's King Kong instead of the pop art version. That being said, how is it that hundreds of DVDs keep getting added to the sale shelf all the time ? who's still buying DVDs ?? also its a pity that there's so much theft and pilfering that goes on, a few of the BDs were opened and either the disc or the digital HD sheet was missing

popped into the Goodwill next door and got a new copy of NatGeo's 'Living in the age of airplanes' BD for $2.99.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

I went today and picked up a few titles:

X-men 2 disc Blu-ray on clearance for $2.50
X2 X-men United 2 disc Blu-ray on clearance for $2.50
The Big Lebowski on Blu-ray for $5

They don't have digital copies though. I got them to replace my DVD copies. $8 total after 20% for all three isn't too bad.

I was looking for To Kill A Mockingbird and couldn't find it. I saw one copy after Christmas when I was visiting family. I should have picked it up, but I had already spent a lot of money on Christmas and decided to wait on it. I'll probably be kicking myself for not getting it now.

I also ended up getting two tubs Peanut Butter Filled Pretzels and some Body wash.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Nothing at the store near my house

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Finally some new stock at my local BL, though a lot more DVDs than BDs.

Picked up BD's of The War Wagon (only copy they had) & The Girl On The Train for $5 apiece & on DVD the Kirk Douglas Centennial Collection for $10.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

My store had a handful of new titles but nothing to speak of. A dozen or so copies of the same 5 or 6 new ones. Some restock DVDs that, based on the titles, look to be some that were found buried in a warehouse and should have gone out years ago (including a few MC PD sets of stuff that they've not carried in a few years).

My $5 off $15 coupon came off *after* the 20% was applied - but I also let them scan the 20% coupon first.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Blu: Dracula Legacy Collection $10~8

DVD: Track of the Cat (Mitchum)$3.00~2.40
Adventures of Francis The Talking Mule (Four Movies) $3.00~2.40

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Did not go for the sale but snagged some before hand of dvds most since no new player. but happy got what real want besides any new stuff they put out. i noticed they changed the displey so not have movies facing away insitead just stand there and gotta check as if flipping through a roll a dex of cards lol. or checking folders of files lol. but in way made easier so not many fall off now lol. i have many so need take a week off snag any unless feel a itch to go certain place find any i real want. cause of traffic i gonna try skip thrift -the area and space they have feels limited so have to be quick due to a lot traffic seem want shoes a lot lol -and stick to places closer by so easier check and see what i want most .

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 

Who is buy DVDs? I’d guess Big Lots customers are in that camp.
