Dollar Tree BLU Rays!

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
just happened to check Dollar Tree yesterday and found DVD copies of the made-for-TV Sound Of Music DVD with Carrie Underwood
SORRY< THIS WAS NOT BLU-RAY. Just regular DVD but includes "Making Of" feature.

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
Went back to one of the ones that never stocked, and lo and behold, they eventually did stock. Knew I should've been on top of that store, because still no sign of the elusive American Pie and I wouldn't be shocked if they had it and sold out (unless that somehow skipped my region entirely). Gonna have to check my closest store, which also never stocked.
Still, I found a couple more Blus and did okay, so I can't complain.
Blu-rays
- Columbus Circle
- Darkman (FINALLY!)
Two of the Darkman copies had cracked cases. Glad I noticed that and got the one good one.
DVDs
- Awaken (with slip)
- The Barber
- U-571
I'm not sure why I didn't get Barber until now. Was it available as a Blu in a past deal? If so, I probably kept hoping to find that.
I can't stand submarine settings, but the cast of U-571 is so good that I couldn't resist.

I haven't seen these show up yet, but after hearing reports about them, I did call a few stores around me. 2 of them seemed fairly confident that there were DVDs/BDs on their next truck and they'd appear sometime over the weekend. I wish they could have been more specific.

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
My closest store had a poster in the window advertising the BDs as the item of the week. I didn't see them, however, when I walked in. I asked with hopes that they'd pull out boxes from the back for me. Instead I'm told they're expected on a truck tomorrow. Called the next closest store to me and was told the same thing though possibly not put out until Sunday.

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
First store had 1/3 Blu-ray's vs. 2/3 DVD's, all in electronics. I picked up almost all, at least 1 copy of everything (except Architect) was in the original cellophane packaging instead of shrink:
Angels Crest
Are You Here
Architect shrinked
Bad Lieutenant
Brass Teapot
Good Doctor
Good People w/slip
Killing Season
Prince Avalanche
Reach Me
Shadow Dancer
Stolen BB Excl. Combo Pack w/slip
Strangerland
To The Wonder
Upside Down
Second store had 2 Blu-ray's (that I'd just bought), with over 100 DVD's, all in electronics.
Third DT was unloading the truck and I was told it'd be awhile, so drove to 4th DT and was told they were also unloading, and it would be 3 hours. Drove back to 3rd one and a really helpful employee found 2 cartons of movies and brought them to the front. 31 Blu-ray vs. 29 DVD. Only new stuff for me was:
Ondine x1
Wonderful World x1
Jungle Stuff w/slip x2
^ All of those were in original cellophane, as were most others.
Drove back to the 4th store, and 50 mins. later the same guy told me 3 hours (still).

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
Went back to the 4th store and they had 5 boxes = 2 of all BD's, 3 of all DVD's. But there were some extras out of boxes that led me to wonder if maybe there was a 6th carton, put out before "3 hours" that customers and/or employees had purchased.
New to me were:
Good Neighbors
Rampart
Runner w/$5 Vudu credit that I've heard is still good, but have not tried myself
The Code / The Contract
The Great Buck Howard
Trespass

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
I went to a few stores, all close by and close to each other. I wonder if Labor Day delayed some shipments, because only one of the stores had anything. It was kinda picked over, but I still managed to score a few decent finds.
Blu-rays
- Answer Man
- Brother's Keeper
- Good Neighbors
- Home Run
- Killing Season
- Parkland (a friend got this for me)
- Reach Me
- Roadie (almost bought the DVD for $3 from Big Lots, so I was happy to find this)
- Strangerland
DVDs
- Elsa & Fred
- Songs in Ordinary Time
BTW, I asked about movies in the last store. He said check back Wed. I'm dubious, but we'll see.

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
I went to three more DTs today - the ones that weren't as close - because someone else was driving and wanted to go. Can't beat that. Unfortunately, those are the ones I should have checked yesterday, because they were pretty well picked over today - at least Blu-wise. I wasn't able to do an early morning run, and didn't have the time and energy for much later in the day yesterday. Out of the 35 reported Blus, I think I ended up with maybe 10 (one today). There are still a few more stores to check back on that didn't have stock yesterday, but I'm not making that trip today - too tired now. Maybe tomorrow. Really happy with what I got overall though, so it might be a case of diminishing returns at this point to look for the few more that may be interesting. I'll see how I feel tomorrow.
Anyway, my finds today:
Blu-ray
- Are You Here (was glad to find this - with these actors, even if it's not great, it's guaranteed to at least be cute and pleasant)
DVD
- 8-Action Film Pack (x3 – 1 for myself, 2 for cases)
- Betty White Collection (I saw two versions of the this – with the only difference, as far as I could tell, being the size of the case. I got the thicker case, because this is a 4-disc set. Probably doesn't matter though, because this is Echo Bridge/Mill Creek/whatever, so the discs are probably stacked either way, lol.)
- Cashmere Mafia: The Complete Series (x2 – one was a gift for my sister; at these prices, why lend?)
- Life Partners (I like Adam Brody and the girl)
- Mr. Nobody (I'm betting we'll see the Blu-ray in a future wave, but I really wanted this, so I'll gamble for a buck)
- Visitors (looks like Deathship, and I like Radha Mitchell, so we'll see)
At one of the DTs, an old lady asked me for advice about DVDs because I was "the expert," hahaha. I told her Parkland was great, she told me Reign Over Me was great (I agreed), and she asked me about Upside Down. I told I haven't seen it, but I heard it was good - weird but good. She said she liked weird. This conversation was better than any of the movies I've found.

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
I went to the local DT to see if they had anything. I don't really need new movies (join the club, right?), but these are the ones I got. They had some more, I don't remember all of them:
Strangerland
Upside Down 3D
Parkland
Killing Season
Are You Here
Stolen
The Runner ($5 VUDU credit, looks to expire 12/1/2018)

Re: Dollar Tree BLU Rays!
I visited three different locations. Only one of the three had a DVD shipment and put out on the floor.
Unfortunately, someone had beaten me to the one location with stock. They basically took every Blu-ray in the selection, leaving a small handful left. The DVDs were untouched, but I've cut back on mindless DVD purchases because they are cheap.
