I'm sure I will buy a bunch, but hopefully not over 10-15. I have over 50 DVDs I picked up for around .10 each to trade in, so I'm set. Right now I can't think of anything but Barbarella, and that will be so I can return the Target one I got for 7.50. I do have a few universal 100 coupons that expire on the 16th, so I will get what I can there.

At least this thread is reasonable. The one at blu-ray.com is over 33 pages long and I've only seen 2 informative posts. so here's is a duplicate of one of those posts. Saw some other stuff at my store that, according the sale labels, will be $9.99 through at least the first week: Restrepo Barbarella I Saw the Devil (supposedly not sold in stores, but...) American History X/A History of Violence The $9.99 Warner triple packs The $9.99 titles in the CinemaNow display (Casino, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Scarface, Animal House, Coraline, Apollo 13) Casino Royale (combo) The Princess Bride (25th anniversary) The Lincoln Lawyer The Town (extended cut) And these won't be on sale when the promo starts: Salmon Fishing in the Yemen Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows All 3D titles currently on sale for $14.99 The BB-exclusive steelbooks The Woman in Black Tommy |

Hmmm, I spent too much money during November/December so I'm kind of meh on this.
Although, I still have quite a few DVDs that I wouldn't mind getting rid of. Pretty much all of them were recently upgraded to BD. I guess it just depends on what is on sale during that time frame. I guess I wouldn't mind getting End of Watch, Death Race 3, and Universal Soldier if I can get them for $15 or less. |
Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
I like these sales but I always have more crap to trade in than good titles I feel like adding so I end up with more shitty rom-coms or dupes of HD DVD's. For $5 I wouldn't mind getting a 3 pack even if I had one of the titles.
And yes my BB did the rearranging as well. All mixed together. Get all excited seeing a title then realizing it's only on DVD. |
Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
If BB has some items that work out to $4.99 after the coupon, that I really covet, then maybe I'll partake. But right now I'm totally set, with all the stuff I bought through the holiday season.

Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
I was interested in picking up both Batman steel books, but not if their prices are going back up.
I'm sure ill find a title to buy (either the deals/titles available stink or I have. Or the prices are still beatable by Amazon) |
Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
Any guesses if the Dredd 3D $19.99 price from this week will carry over until this starts? I'm not holding my breath, but it would be nice.

Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
Love some triple packs from Warner for $5! I have a nice stack of DVD crap ready to go.

Hoping to pick up Hannah and Her Sisters and Sleeper for cheap (or cheapest possible).

Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
I've never heard of this and it almost seems too good to be true. I will most likely be taking advantage of this when the time comes.

Don;t hold me to this exact list, but it should be a pretty good starting point. The last time I saw the display in store I remember a number of these groups being included. |

Mr. Cinema also posted this on bluray.com PROMO ENDS 3/2/13 The store I visited had the sale tags up, but not all titles were out yet. There looked to be about 16 spots and all of them were $9.99 each. I think the tags mentioned the sale ending sometime next month, so these will make for some excellent Upgrade and Save choices. Here's the titles or shelf tags I remember seeing: Ben Hur Network The Blind Side Happy Feet Amadeus (non-book version) Casablanca: 70th Anniversary single disc Training Day (this is ticketed $7.99) Unforgiven (non-book version) Dog Day Afternoon The Aviator L.A. Confidential Goodfellas North by Northwest (probably non-book version) The Dark Knight Inception The Matrix (non-book version) Also there is a $3 off coupon that is printable for Arbitrage, so if that ever drops lower (currently at $16.99) the coupon can be combined for a total savings of $8. |
Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
Have a ton of old DVDs that I've since upgraded to Blu-ray just waiting to be traded in. Now, if only I didn't own nearly all the $9.99 titles ($4.99 after coupon) worth owning.

Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
Does any one know if the 3 packs BD are the same of single pack you normaily buy - I meant are they bare bone just movie with extras missing.
( I think when I bought Black Friday BD from walmart for $5 a couple of them seem not to mention extras on the back - like the single I had bought from somewhere else about a year ago - I have not actually watched each of these BD to compare) |
Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
The 3 packs I have picked up have the same first disc as the regular editions. The only difference would be if there was a second disc of extras, etc. This would not be included.

Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
I hope the HONDO/GRIT/ONCE UPON A TIME triple will be there. That and the Kubrick are the only sure buys for me.

Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
If there are things I want that are not available in store, could I order them off the website, and then return them to the store to re-buy using the U&S?

Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
I would recommend going on Sunday. The titles get pretty slim at times. Mine doesn't replenish at all during the sale so I've ended up with stuff I wouldn't normally buy but had to use up a coupon

Make sure that any BD you buy for return/rebuy has a 7-digit SKU and not an 8-digit SKU. You may be able to do the return/rebuy with an 8-digit SKU (I think I read it somewhere on blu-ray.com), but it is a MAJOR hassle. Better to stick with 7-digit SKU's.
