Predator Best Deal?

Best deal I've seen so far is at Target for $15.99

Any other hot offers?

Is BB the only one carrying the Free Movie ticket with the purchase of Predator?

No, I think it comes packaged with the film everywhere. I saw a commercial for the dvd and it talked about the free movie ticket for AvP.

The Sam's club I was at today at a 2-pack of the both the special editions of Predator and Alien. The pak was $27.46 and the Predator DVD included the Movie Ticket for AvP.

Has anyone received a movie ticket with a DDD DVD? I never have, which is odd. Maybe only B&M's carry the ticket?

Wow! That's a great price. I see it is that amount on the website, too. I also noticed in the store that there is a $5.00 off coupon for predator and several other titles when you preorder the Star Wars Trilogy from there. Not too much detail on the coupon like if it has to be on the same receipt or not.

There is also a 10% off and free shipping coupon on the Coconuts website. The code is firstpurchase and you must select budget shipping in order for it to be free.

Nice catch on the Coconut's web-site. I was planning on getting this for $17 at best... Total on Coconut's came to just $14.10. Quite a deal, thanks.

Picked this up for $14.83 at a local Wal-Mart although different stores tend to have different sale pricing. This particular store mostly had full frame versions and I had to do some digging to find the far fewer widescreen versions that they had(make sure to check the back of the packaging). Not a bad deal at all considering the free ticket to AvP inside.

you sold it for $3? In NYC, tickets are $10.25. Even if you didn't want to see AvP, you could use it and walk into another movie.

I tend to think the best deal was the one that db27 posted above at FYE. You get Predator for $9.99 ($14.99 - $5 discount) and Star Wars Trilogy for $34.99 after MIR with a $5 + Tax deposit on Star Wars.

My co-worker's local theater's matinee is $8, so I just kind of 1/2'd it to make it more tempting to buy, I was being generous. I have no complaints in paying $12.99 for the DVD.

I picked up three copies at Target this morning and guess what? No movie ticket in either one!

I'm supper pissed right now.

All Predator DVD's SHOULD have the ticket, but that's not how it's turning out. Target seems to have received quite a few that lack the ticket, despite the sticker on the cover saying it's in there.

go back to the store and tell them that you didn't receive any tickets. Have them open them at the store with you there. If none of them have it, PM at Best Buy or Circuit City. Or if you have a FYE/Coconuts/Strawberries/Wherehouse/Specs, buy it there for $14.99 (You could do the Star Wars pre-order deal that db27 described above).

The problem is that Target will only exchange the dvd for the same title. If none of their copies have it, then I'll still be out of luck.

They were packaged into the dvd. I doubt any one store got a big batch of bad packages so try your luck. I mean, it does say so on the front so it's got to be in them or you can suggest your full money back since your product didn't come full with everything it was suppose to.
