Agreed. I saw some of the blu-rays on the list and wanted them, like Back to the Future, but saw the prices and the some stores are actually a better price than what Amazon has. VERY disappointing!

More Lightning deals added, for Mon Dec 17 to Wed Dec. 19:

I'll have to think about that Eastwood Collection. It's a random collection of films, but I would be able to take care of a few upgrades and get some new titles - all for $3.50/film. Thanks for the heads up.

Wow, Monday's BBC prices aren't very good. I'm kinda surprised. B&N has done better. But I suppose it is uncommon for Amazon to do a lightning deal on classic Dr. Who, so that part is kinda nice...

Eastwood is definitely a deal, but I own all but 3 in HD already (granted one is on HD-DVD). Dunno if I can justify it for only 4 upgrades...

This was on sale at Target for the last 2 weeks for the same price. You could get it even cheaper by buying $50 worth of stuff and getting a Target GC. May be on sale this week as well at Target. They may even do the GC promo again (it's run the last 2 weeks Wed-Sat).

The 10 disc Eastwood Collection is worth it if you don't own enough of the movies on BD already. I was at Costco yesterday holding it in my hands for $29.99, but I chose to skip it because I already own 6 out of its 10 movies on BD. Though most of the 6 movies I have are probably still unopened, selling new or used BDs for any reasonable amount of money is more effort than I have time to expend now. Amazon trade ins are usually so low as to hardly be worth it, even for new BDs.

Wouldn't it technically be more expensive if you had to buy $50 worth of merchandise beforehand?
