Regarding the Kubrick set. I found it at the Milwaukee Mayfair location which always has a bit better media selection. They have the new layout now and it was in the Action/SciFi section but alphabetized in the T's for Two-Thousand-One if that helps you find it. They did not have a separate display for the 3 packs.
Nice to see Wisconsin is well represented in this thread!

I put a $15 gift card I got for trading in three old flip phones + two of the $5 off coupons towards Harold and Kumar 3D and Final Destination 5 3D for a total of $6 or so out of pocket just now, my 3rd or 4th trip.

Hmmmm, trading in old crappy phones for 5 bucks each isn't a terrible idea... I should try to trade my crap in...

My store only needed to see my driver's license, but some people are reporting having to give up a fingerprint on a reader for some weird reason. My store didn't ask for that or even mention it at all, but there ya go.

Have they done the phone promotion before? I've got one or two around here someplace, but who knows which drawer I threw them in? If there's a reasonable assurance the program will come around again in the near future, I'll just have them for next time.

Decided to go through my hd dvd's and found I had doubles of a couple of them. Took them, a couple of dvds I noticed that I had doubles in the BD combo sets and traded those in today.
Picked up 3 more of the triple sets(Oceans trilogy, TMNT and Blazing Saddles/Caddyshack/NL Euro Vac) along with The Firm WB re-release and Barbarella. I had found a couple of more to trade in, but one of the few people that has actually been with this store more than a couple of months told me about the limit of five.
First week isn't even over and I am up to 14 BD's purchased. Forgot about the phone deal or I would have done it also.

Another 2013 resolution broken. I swore I wouldn't buy any more BDs until I reduced my unwatched pile, but after BB sent me a $5 RZ certificate, I crumbled. The Reston, VA, store has been pretty well picked over, and I couldn't locate any of the triple features or much of my wish list, but I did buy Source Code, Sin City and Re-Animator. With the U&S coupons and RZ discount, I only paid $10.72 for all 3.

If anyone has it I'd appreciate the SKU for the Superman Triple Feature. I can't find it on BB's web site so I can't see if anyone might have it in stock. I'm hoping that the SKU might show up (though I doubt it). Thanks!

Says Superman: movie, but when you click on it, it shows a pic of the triple pack.

Are you sure about that? I had them check some of them on their computer screen (TMNT) and they said there was no ending date to the promom except for one (I think it was Vendetta) that ended on the 22nd. Maybe I got bad info?

Best bet is to not chance it if there is anything you want.

^ I took heed of that advice, and bought three more 3-packs a half hour ago: TMNT, Denzel Washington, and disaster pack (Twister/Poseidon/Storm). No slip cover on the any of the Denzel sets. Does it have one? Cashier put the receipt/coupon back in my bag. Looks like I can double-dip for another 3 titles! Only 11 bought so far during this U&S. Several more to go...
This morning I found my snapper Training Day and planned to trade it in, thinking I already owned it on BD. Glad I checked, cuz I didn't. Of course, now I can on my next trip!

The one with the lenticular cover is defintely $19.99. I found a copy of the $9.99 version at one Best Buy, then found the lenticular cover at another Best Buy. I was going to buy it & return the other, but when they scanned it, it was $19.99... definitely not worth it just for the cover!

As far as the rest of the sets, there were maybe one or two copies left w/ slips except for the Beetlejuice set which had multiple copies w/ slips.

Re: Upgrade and Save coming back! 1/13 - 2/2
The Departed/Goodfellas/The Aviator
V for Vendetta/The Watchmen DC/Constantine
I still have a couple of other duplicates to get for some friends, so maybe I'll get one with a slip for myself.

Has anyone had a problem with the non digibook version of "North by Northwest" ringing up $14.99 instead of $9.99? That happened to me this evening. Though I indicated that the online price was $9.99 they told me if they price matched their website they could not take the coupon. Just ridiculous...

Went back this evening and got a pretty decent haul (5 trade-ins and 1 cell phone upgrade)
$5 each:
Planes, Train, and Automobiles
Miracle
The Guns of Navarone
Twister/Poseidon/The Perfect Storm
The Departed(HD-DVD upgrade)/GoodFellas(will give away)/The Aviator(HD-DVD upgrade)
2001(HD-DVD upgrade)/A Clockwork Orange(will give away)/The Shining(HD-DVD upgrade)
Had this fun exchange with the cashier in customer service when I checked out:
* I approach with 6 blu-rays in one hand and 5 DVDs in the other*
CR: "You know, it's only 3 trade-ins per day."
Me: Really? I thought it was 5.
CR: *looks at upgrade and save coupon* (presumably sees no such 3 limit) "I don't really care, I'll just scan them all."

Actually, they do. I was there yesterday. Took me a while to find it though. It is next to the $7.99 dump bin. It contained several Kubrick triple features, as well as the Lost Boys, 16 Blocks, and Music & Lyrics 3-packs. I found the Superman set in the Action/Sci-Fi aisle.
Nice to see Wisconsin is well represented in this thread!

Thanks for the heads up, hoping there's some left on Saturday when I have time to go out hunting again.
