Assume that all of these are available to all customers unless specifically listed as member only like the Welcome Package. Also remember that any preliminary codes are just that and BN could pull it, change the details or exclusions anything prior to release so always a bit of YMMV until the final release date

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Thanks! I went to another Target and found it. For some reason, Amazon search was only feeding the deluxe BD release, with the book and stuff, but the plain one is coming up for me now.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Looks like these lightning deals aren't lightening as many wallets as they used to.
Also looks like the 3D BR DVD Antman preorder is down to $19.99 though.
EDIT: better deal at Best Buy with the $5 back in rewards for the same price.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Had to buy one for my cousins kids since I bought them "The Amazing Spiderman 1 and "The Amazing Spiderman 2" DVD/Blu-Ray sets as part of the Buy One-Get One Free deal at Best Buy. (Got both for a nice $5.99.) So they have all five of the Spiderman movies now.
I passed on The Spectacular Spider-Man - The Complete Series - I have it on DVD already - only watched it once - so no upgrade.
Yeah I could get it for my cousins kids but I've already spent enough on them this Christmas. If they want to watch it - they can borrow mine.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
First time in memory that Amazon truly disappoints on Black Friday week for media sales. I actually only bought one movie from Amazon, and it was only a price match with Best Buy where I opted for Amazon because of quicker deliveries. I thought Best Buy was the best for on-line sales. Got around a dozen from BB most even before BF day. And Walmart surprises with their 3D movie sale. I had no intention of even going to Walmart. But as there were no alternative to getting 3D sale from competitors, these turned out to be door busters for me as I went to 3 Walmart stores just to build a 3D collection. ended up getting a dozen movies from Wally for both 3D and none 3D movies. Now Wally will be a big consideration for the next BF sale.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
This is the second year in a row I didn't get anything at Amazon during Black Friday. I'm not going to sit around and try to get in on a two second lightning deal when I can just grab it at Best Buy with free shipping.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Only thing that I bought from Amazon this weekend that was a super deal was Person of Interest season 4 for only $9.99. Bummer that other WB TV shows like Arrow, The Flash, Vampire Diaries, Supernatural didn't follow the same sale patterns with them. While $19.99 each is a pretty good sale price each for them, I felt like I didn't really need them that badly for that price for something I've already seen on TV. I put a few of them on my Christmas wish list.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I agree that the sales on Amazon were disappointing this year. In years past they mostly priced matched but this year the way they made a lot of the hot titles available on sale only briefly as Lighting Deals was incredibly lame. Not really sure I understand their strategy as they always had the edge over retailers but this year it was almost more worth it to just go out to places. I only wound up getting two titles from them the entire week (The Flash: The Complete First Season and John Wick).

Well, that was $19.99 in their site for a long time and only dropped to $9.99 when they finally matched Best Buy. They did have some decent deals on other shows though.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I also posted this in the DVD thread, but it is just as applicable here:
I've kind of mentioned this in other wording lately, but there is so little competition left that Amazon doesn't care; they don't have to. There focus right now is 99% Prime. Other then that, they really don't care a lot about competing as they've already won.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Well I wouldn't go that far as I still rely on them as there's some items I don't find in stores locally. I will agree that Amazon has been seeming more like they'd just going through the motions recently and not putting in a lot of effort to being competitive which is unfortunate.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
That it allows me to order 1 $5 thing every often and fairly-frequently get a free dollar for eBooks and music make the relative-non-competitiveness (VERY relative; they're still as cheap as almost everywhere on almost everything) barely an issue. For me.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Not really even close -- I spent more in 2013 and only a little less in 2014 total than any other year, just a lot more everywhere else. In addition to the 2013 I spent a lot at BBY, Walmart, Fox and WB (plus the normal B&N). 2014 it was BBY, Deep Discount, Fox,, overall it was less this year other than B&N but 2015 it was mostly BBY and Deep Discount, with some at Walmart.
From posts I made in previous years I went for 75% at Amazon in 2011/2012, to less than 30% or less in 2013, to 2% last year (it's was #9 on the retailer list last BF), obviously incalculable this year in % though this years BF spending is down for other reasons.
