"Awesome deal - picked up Goodfellas SE for a cool $12.79."
so does that mean goodfellas regular price is 15.99? or did a cashier mess up and let you use the coupon on a sale item?

Maybe he got it Saturday or before, when it was still on its first week sale.

Yep, I picked it up on Saturday. The clueless cashier rung up the coupon for Goodfellas but not for the other normal priced disc I picked up. Go figure.

It's the second to the last page I think. You might have grabbed one that already had the coupon ripped out. I had the same problem - some people are ripping out the DVD coupon and putting the books back on the shelves.

That's me. I ripped out two at the store and took a booklet. Our Best Buy was filled with them and no one seemed to care except me.

The coupon I used expired in March, but it still worked to the amusement of the cashier. YMMV.

I guess I waited too long. I couldn't find anything but a Gamecube coupon book at 2 different Best Buys.

I just gave my book to the cashier and it scanned in 0.00. Plus she gave me back my 20% coupon.

No.

It's about the size of a CD case. Cover is mostly plain white (bottom bit is black) with lettering "Coupon Book for Madden 2005" in big red letters.

No pictures on the book with the exception of the best buy logo. It's not a magazine at all, it just has coupons.

I want to thank spankyj for posting this info up and a thank you to everyone that's replied.

I was able to pick up the Godfather box set for $41 and Bubba Ho Tep for $16.

FYI: My local BB had the coupon books sitting next to the Madden video games. I grabbed three. I purchased 6 DVDs (4 of the 2 for $20) and I had thought that the very cute cashier had given me the 20% off on both of my two above mentioned titles. I was wrong. So I had to make a trip to customer service. The CS clerk wanted to see the coupon so I went and picked up another book off the shelf and ended up keeping it and the coupon. So I made out with 4 books.

Thanks again!

Ok, just to make sure, with 1 of the coupons, you can get 20 percent off each DVD (UP TO 3 DVDs) right?? I got 3 DVDs, and stupid cashier only gave me 20 percent off on 1 of them

Someone mentioned earlier in the thread that you have to have the cashier scan the coupon after each DVD or it only deducts 20% off the first DVD.

Check my earlier post. Cashier did the same thing to me.

Customer Service desk corrected it with no problems.

I used the coupon to pick up Futurama Vol. 4. The coupon does say that it expires in March, but that's obviously not right. When the cashier rang up the DVD with the coupon, he told me the total was $32.79 before tax. Dude took off 20 cents instead of 20%. We got that fixed, of course. Pretty funny.
