re: Amazon Blu-ray Discounts and Deals Thread #27
This has happened to me on a few titles and happens every year. It's very frustrating but oh well, as others have said, the deal when you purchased it was good enough to push you to make the purchase so just be happy with that (I know that doesn't soften the blow though). lol

Knocked Up widescreen DVD: 65% claimed
Knocked Up foolscreen DVD: 100% claimed
Maybe they had fewer copies of the FS?

I was tempted to get it at 8.99, but decided against it. Was psyched when I saw the price today. Now have all Tarantino movies on Blu. I think a marathon will happen this weekend.

Amazon's BF is getting kinda lame. I'm surprised more titles aren't on sale.

I have the collector's edition with both versions on DVD, so, while I wish it was included, it's not a deal breaker that it's not there. I actually still haven't watched the longer version but I have heard that a lot of people actually prefer the short version.

Thinking about Cars 2 on the lightning deal. This would be a blind buy. I understand the consensus is "weakest Pixar movie," but my kids would probably like it. Anybody think $16.99 is as cheap as it's likely to get anytime soon?

It isn't a bad price but after seeing it for $10 at Sam's Club, it is hard for me to want to pay that for it.

Hmmm. Well, I don't have a Sam's Club membership so that rules that out. I do have about $8 in Discover points I could apply, which would make the out of pocket cost negligible.

Gotta say amazon seems to be off to a slow start today. There were a lot more price drops yesterday morning. By this time Monday and Thursday, I'd already bought some stuff. Hopefully they drop some more prices later.

Yeah, I was holding off on buying some of the Blu-rays until today to see if anything new would be added. Not only wasn't anything added, but a lot of stuff has sold out/gone back to normal pricing...so I hurried and added some titles I wanted (like Green Lantern and Hanna) before they went back to normal pricing as well. I suggest everyone do the same...doesn't look like they're adding any more deals - other than the lightning deals yet to come.

Almost picked up 'Trainspotting' the other day for $6.99, so for $4.99 it was a "no-brainer"

Almost bit on Jackie Brown yesterday for 4.99 and then thought the DVD was good enough. Another dollar off and I gave in. Also went for the Exorcist.

I had video on demand credit on my account, which I have no idea how and wouldn't use otherwise, so I rented Transformers 3 so I could get $5 off for buying Transformers 3 on BR/DVD for a total of $4.99. You may want to see if you have any credit to do that unless you didn't want a combo pack.
