:lol: BOTH discs in my copy of that froze up in the middle! HD-DVD was such a fustercluck. I wouldn't gamble more than a buck on any HD-DVD now.

I had quite a few HD-DVDs get disc rot, mostly Warner. I hope that plays for you Larkin, and maybe you can rip it and convert it.

oh, I didn't purchase it. That was just for the picture to share here :-). But all my HD-DVDs (about 40 of them) are still doing fine as is my Toshiba HD-A2 player

I found a copy of Polar Express 3D today.

They also had 300: Rise of an Empire 3D, but I already own it.

I picked up Gravity 3D for $5. I picked it up for my brother since he has a 3D TV.

Decided to make a stop by a store and found a single copy of this, which I bought.

Also purchased a single copy of La Femme Nikita on clearance for $1.25. Had passed many times previously, but went ahead with it being marked down.

Finally, the Wizard of Oz 3D/BD/DVD/book for $8, once more just a single copy. I'm assuming this is the same one which was reported earlier for $5. I bought this one despite not having a 3D setup. I didn't want to regret not buying it. :lol:

I also saw 1 copy of Slumdog Millionaire for $1.88 and bought it.

And 1 copy of the Wizard of Oz 3D/BD/DVD with book for $8, which is different than the previous version for $5 that I bought that didn't include a book.

That makes me feel better. :up:

I stopped by Big Lots today and couldn't find a Black Friday Blu-ray display. I was hoping to pick up a copy of Slumdog Millionaire, but couldn't find any. I ended up getting DVDs of Jesse Stone: Night Passage and Assassination of a High School President for $3 each and a 50 Pack of CD-Rs for $12.

Has anyone seen the $1.88 copies of Last Action Hero at their Big Lots?

I might check out the one closest to my place later today.

Picked up the WOZ 3D/BD/DVD with book and the 4 movie pack DVD of Tennessee Williams (Night of Iguana/Sweet Bird of Youth/The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone/Baby Doll) for $10 for both.

They are marked $8 each, but if you buy in pairs, they are 2 for $10.

Also saw marked at $8 each (2 for $10), various DVD seasons of Pretty Little Liars, Heros, Parenthood, The Closer, The Following, Vampire Diaries, House MD and many Warner/Turner 4 movie packs of the classics, Bogey, Stanwyck, Grant, etc.

All of the above have the same $8 price sticker code of 145 810327102 8 106 and will automatically ring up at $5 each if you buy in pairs. This is BL's 3 day Black Thurs/Fri/Saturday sale.

I got that WOZ box with book a couple years ago at Ross. Don't remember what I paid.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
Only 1 of the 2 Big Lots in our area received the DVD/Blu rack. I asked and mentioned it was even in the ad and they said they must not have got it. The one who put it out, I missed getting WoOZ... .

BobO'Link 11-27-16 11:53 AM

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
I went in this morning and saw, but did not purchase, 3D copies of The Wizard of Oz, Epic, and 300 (I don't own 3D equipment and don't like any of them enough to upgrade my DVD copies). I snagged a $1.88 copy of Slumdog Millionaire for no other reason than it seems to get talked about quite a bit. I put back some of the TNT 4 packs until I can make sure I don't already own copies of the included films (I hate the way some of these films are repackaged every year or two).

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
Picked up the lone copies of WOZ 3D and Epic 3D at my local store. And then saw earlier posts in this thread for a 2 for $10 sale (2 of the $8 titles when purchased on a single transaction). Tons of TCM/Warner 4 DVD Catalog titles in the store as well, which I shall combine on a return and rebuy this evening. What a deal ! Thanks for posting this

BobO'Link 11-27-16 07:00 PM

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
^Those $8 titles rang up 2/$14 when I went by tonight. I didn't question them as I thought the prices were good. I purchased 2 of the TCM/Warner 4 DVD titles.

The 2 for $10 deal (marked at $8 each) was Biglot's 3 day Black Thursday/Friday/Saturday sale.

BobO'Link 11-27-16 08:08 PM

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
^Yes, but I was hoping they'd extend it as they've done in the past. It didn't help that I got a "Black Friday Sales end Today" email this morning. That added to the expectation it might still be good. But I'm OK with the $7 each price for the ones I purchased. I mainly wanted to point out it may not be valid, or as profitable, for those making a trip to return/rebuy titles.

That was my assumption as well as I went into the store this evening to return/rebuy the WOZ 3D set with another TCM/Warner 4fer. The sign for '2 for $10' was still there but following the return and re-ring, each rang up for $7 instead of $5. Only then did the Store Mgr point out to me the dates on the sign. I apologized and said I was ok to repurchase WOZ 3D at $8 but the Manager was nice enough to offer the two for me by overriding the price on each to $5. Feels good to finally get the Magnificent Ambersons on DVD as well

You guys have mentioned Slumdog Millionaire, it really is an amazing film- and really beautiful to look at. The cinematography makes even the terrible side of Mumbai look beautiful. Danny Boyle makes damn good movies.

Just a point to snag one if you haven't seen it.

Picked up A Monster in Paris 3D for 2.88 ( it may be 3D+BD+DVD)

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
During my lunch break, I ran by the store that's not far from where I work. I was able to find a copy of Monster in Paris, 300 and Epic. No Wizard of Oz that I could find, but I already own that one anyway. Good deals!

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
Today (since work cut hours and it was my 2nd day off of 3-in-a-row), I hit a few Big Lots in the St. Louis (MO) area, and got all BUT one that I wanted to find (the Monster in Paris 3D blu, as most stores have had their 1.88/2.88 shippers picked through). I picked up Wizard of Oz 3D set from Fenton (both copies they had, one for me, one for a co-worker of mine who is all about these 3D deals) along with the first 2 seasons of the Originals on DVD for my GF, and the Epic 3D combo from Crestwood (both of them as well, ditto). Over Black Friday and today, I've hit all the Big Lots in the STL area, except Alton, Bevo Mill-Kingshighway (which is typicallly picked apart anyway), Fairview Heights, and Washington, MO.

I'm still on hunt for that Monster in Paris 3D blu....

MooMooMooMoo 12-02-16 05:36 PM

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
No blu's at all at the BL closest to me (72nd Tacoma WA)

js2shops 12-02-16 06:51 PM

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
Blus were pretty picked over on my trip yesterday, but I got a couple of good DVDs- Alexander: The Ultimate Cut on clearance and that Bogie/Bacall TCM set.

soundman2 01-20-17 12:09 PM

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
Having found a few 3d BD I was in search for the Polar Express 3D. After a few visits I found one yesterday marked at $ 5.00.

Went to the register and I thought I mis-heard the cashier say the price

I checked the receipt and yes it was all of $ 1.00 (+tx).

Store List

Seeing all of the stores listed are in the southern region, could this be to make up for weather related troubles those folks experienced? Seems like they've done this before for that reason.

That's what it looks like to me... My state isn't included - but all we had was rain.

I can confirm they did that last year. They had a make-up day the following because of a weekend ice storm.

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
I received a $5 off $20 purchase coupon in my e-mail, so I stopped by my local store yesterday. There were a few random BDs (priced at $5) mixed in the DVD display that I had never seen at this location. A few of which (Gravity 3D), have been mentioned before. One that hasn't been mentioned--Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock Heart. With the coupon, I picked it up as a blind buy.

soundman2 03-08-17 10:35 AM

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays
 
Picked up the following $5

Epic ( 3D + BD + DVD+ DC )
Jack and the cuckoo clock heart (BD+DVD+DC) Shout Factory
Polar Express 3D + 2D

Rob Roy $3

Stopped by my local Big Lots today and they had quite a few $5 blu rays. Nothing super exciting but they did have a few of those wierd cardboard artwork versions of movies (Hang em High, The Transporter). The only thing I grabbed was the new Fantastic Four movie. It was the Target exclusive book version for $5.

The artwork I am talking about are the ones that look like this. https://www.picclickimg.com/d/l400/p...stwood-NEW.jpg
