I'm a silver member. This is the second mystery certificate I've received from BB in less than a month. The last one in November was for $5.

Actually, I believe it IS all HBO series, as in the past.



With the stated exceptions of Girls, Game of Thrones, and gift sets.

I just saw that on another site also. That's encouraging, but what are HBO gift sets? Would the complete series be included?

Entourage, that new Game of Thrones season 1 set... I may throw down for the Entourage series if that's one of them.

I'm a silver member and the certificate that I received wasn't a mystery cert. BB mailed me a letter with a $10.00 reward certificate in the top right corner. The letter said happy holidays from BB and was "from" the director of loyalty marketing.

It's 50% off MSRP or 50% off the "current" sticker price?

I'm a Premier Silver Member. Like LASERMOVIES, I've received two mystery emails, which you print up and take to the store to find their "mystery value".

I'm a premium silver member, and I got the e-mail offer today. Didn't get a previous one though. Or atleast not that I recall, though I might've deleted the email without opening it.

Got the same thing. Couple weeks ago got $10 reward cert in my account and a couple weeks before that $5. $25 total in last six weeks. Nice.

I got the $10 mystery cert in email. Nothing in regular mail. I had two $5 mystery certs in the past two months as well.

Nothing in the regular mail either. The last mystery cert was only good for a couple days if I remember correctly so i didn't get to use it

Game of Thrones excluded? Dicks.

I'll swing by during the week and see what HBO shows I might want. Maybe it's time to get the full series of Deadwood. Shame Carnivale hasn't been released on Blu-ray.

Grrr ... looks like no deal on Treme Season 2 Blu-Ray. Still showing as $62.99 online and none available in any stores. Guessing I could get the 50% off IF I could find it in store.

Been waiting all year for this sale, oh well!

I'm 0 for 3. Totally pisses me off. I've gotten them to credit 3 $5 RZ to my account, but they were reluctant to do so the last 2 times. I'm tired of fighting BB to get them to give me what they seem to give to everyone else esp. after dropping 4 grand with them. Of course, I won't stop buying there because I'm a bargain hunter, but if it's not to my advantage to shop there, I won't.

Thanks! I have the original release, but I couldn't resist getting the Digital copy and the extras.

... plus I found a couple of cheap blu-rays for filler to get over $50 to use the $10 off $50 when using your BB Mastercard.

I figure I can sell my original set and make most of my money back.

The 50% off on HBO seems to be fairly randomly applied this year. Aside from the aformentioned Treme, I tried to finally pick up season 3 of In Treatment, but that's not on sale either.

Re: Best Buy Ad 12/16/12 - 12/22/12

I went in tonight specifically to pick up a few HBO titles.

Picked up:
Eastbound and Down seasons 1-3 ($16.99 each)

Hung seasons 1-3 on DVD ($14.99 each): I like this show, but I decided to save a few bucks as I didn't really need to see it in HD.

Luck season 1 ($29.99)

Disappointed that the complete series gift sets weren't on sale this time around. I would have strongly considered getting Six Feet Under and maybe Big Love.

I was also hoping to get Treme on BD, but apparently that is not on sale either.

I also picked up a few of the DC Comics BD's that were $7.99 each.

Also, I did get that Mystery Certificate e-mail. Mine was $10. I used it last week to pick up Ted.
