Depends on where you look. I found a bunch of them at the Compton, CA store. Nobody else in the local region had any.

Yes, but that's because they had very few good deals so most people weren't interested and most people were asleep because they didn't know when the sale began. It's like giving a bad driver who crashes his car on every long daytime trip thumbs up for not crashing his car when he only drove a mile this time and it was at night when nobody else was on the round.

I imagine to do the elite preview, you have to be a card carrying member of BB?

You have to be a rewards member and have spent a certain amount of money. $1500 at BB last year or I think ~$1500/$3500 this year.

I got a shipping notice from BB for the BF blu rays I ordered this morning . Original order confirmation said they wouldn't ship until next week.

I think some of their Standard Shipping times (December 2+) are being rolled into the Expedited Shipping times (November 27-29).

I think I might just stash a few BDs behind the 80 inch leds and then come back to pick it up on Black Friday.

That is unethical. Think of the people who stand out there waiting to buy that movie that YOU hid and stroll in around 10am and buy it when they thought it was sold out. SHAME ON YOU.

I did that during U&S earlier this year. I hid movies that were going to be on sale behind crap movies no one would buy or movies that had TONS of stock.

God bless 60 copies of Skyfall.

And a tip for folks looking to hide movies within other movies.. turn your hidden movie upside down. The white seal tape label with the title won't show - it will just look like another copy of the non-hidden movie, but without the seal.

re: Best Buy / bestbuy.com discounts and deals on Blu-ray

I just take all the movies I want to a front of the store clerk late Wednesday night and tell them I will be right back. They put them under the counter. On Thursday evening I go to the same checkstand and ask them for. Works everytime, and it's not all that tricky. I'm simply relying upon staff to be lazy.

Are you sure it was active, and they didn't maybe just put the sign up early? It seems weird they wouldn't do that online

Are they all at the same price? If so, what is that price? I believe they had the same type of promotion last year, and the films where $9.99 each. So, they would be basically 2 for $9.99.

I'm pretty sure they were all 9.99 I think that's the standard price for that display. I bought 4 titles and they rang up with no problem.

That's correct. All Savestation titles are $9.99, thus 2 for $9.99.

On a separate note, I noticed that Wizard of Oz 3D Steelbook (BB Exclusive) is $19.99 right now. You can order it online (shipping only) but it rings up that way in-store as well. I wanted to pick out my Steelbook, since they sometimes have dings.
