X-Men: First Class - $4.99
Daredevil / Elektra / The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - $9.99
Torchwood: S1 - $14.99

The first three Pirates of Caribbean movies are down to $9.99 on sale, so throw in the coupons and I figure'd they're worth at least $5. I also picked up Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels and all of the X-Men movies.

Dredd 3D is also down to $12.99, so it looks like I'll be picking that up on my next haul. I'm really kind of shocked at the deals this time, I wasn't expecting it.

Are all the "comic cover" steelbooks ringing up at $9.99? I had my eye on the two Hulk films but the website price is listed as $14.99 each.

Just got X-Men 1-3, was very pleased to see they had slipcovers!

BTW, the shelf tag for these at my store was showing $12.99, but they ring up at $9.99 and then you get the $5 off so $4.99.

As info, the X-Men movies show 12.99 on the yellow shelf tag but ring up at 9.99, there's a circular in the store with the right price if you need them to correct it.

I wish I could find them to even find out. I've been to three stores and could not even find one of them nevermind the two I actually want (Hot Fuzz and Van Helsing). I've seen a few of the others who have found random ones but as far as the stores I've been too, I've come up 100% cold. Heck, I've only gotten one blu during this sale to boot (The Jerk). Very unfortunate.

I got shut down trying to price-match Flight and Jerry Maguire. Both are $9.99 online but $14.99 in the store

I really thought he was going to do it, but alas, the system wouldn't allow it. I tried to play dumb like, "Does that happen a lot? The web site being different than the store," hoping he would take pity on me, but he didn't.

Going to be a lighter haul this time around.

I stopped by today and got Romeo & Juliette/Moulin Rouge 2 pack for $4.99

Might stop by and get Twixt and Trance tomorrow. Still up in the air on those 2.

A manager had to override the prices and it wasn't a big deal, but of course YMMV.
Yep. These are the 3 I bought today. Got overrides on all of them. Also got Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D for $9.99, and Rust & Bone for $4.99. They finally took my coupon. Traded in 5 DVD's, and was able to redeem 16 titles.

Picked up:

$19.99 - Evil Dead BB Exclusive. Didn't know these weren't supposed to have slipcovers. I was annoyed, so I just took a regular ED slipcover and put it on. It wasn't until I got home and looked up the exclusive that I noticed they weren't issued with one. Oops!
$4.99 - Anchorman
$4.99 - Xmen First Class

Used a $5 reward zone and walked out with all of it for about $25.

I did some research on my own... I think the biggest difference is The Animatrix is only available in the collection.

Dumb question... where did you buy 5 used BDs for 69c and 99c each and where will there be a 25% off everything sale from 9am-2pm? At BB? You'd think they'd announce such a sale because I'm sure there are a lot of people who'd like to get 25% off everything in the store which in many cases would be better than the $5 U&S (which is why I assume you're referring to another store which is why some context would be good). I've never heard of Dollar Tree doing a 25% off sale.

Finally found the Dark Knight Rises steelbook. Wished I had bought it when it was first released.

Got it for $24.99. Will keep it wrapped, just in case it becomes cheaper; I know where to get them now.

Also nabbed Chronicle $4.99 and Dead Man Down $9.99.

Re: Best Buy Upgrade and Save 7/14 - 8/10 (Your Haul Thread)

Can you combine these coupons? Say there's a blu ray for 29.99 and I have 25 dollars worth of coupons. Will they let me knock the 25 dollars off of the price or is it one blu ray per coupon each?
