I noticed this too... a day after paying 29.99 for it a target, got them to price adjust the next day

This is a damn funny show, must be the Jeffrey Tambor magic...

Is it really that cheap? I might have to get that.

Just to throw in my $.2, this is DEFINATELY worth a blind buy foo those that are on the fence. I would rate this as one of the top three funniest shows of all time, and the BEST TV on DVD show available at the moment for a comedy (this comes from a serious TV on DVD fanatic). I got it for a few bucks less then this price during the BN deal a few weeks back, but in retrospect, I would have paid full retail if I had known how wonderful this show is. Go buy it!

When is this on sale through? Planning on doing some shopping at Target Thursday and it would be great if it was still on sale? Anybody know?

It was nineteen ninety-nine at my Target. Or $8.80 with a Family Guy Vol. 1 raincheck.

I'd never seen the show before, but it sounded interesting enough to pick up at that price.

I don't watch much regularly-scheduled television shows. I had heard about this, and read some reviews on Amazon. Someone described it as a cross between Family Guy and Curb Your Enthusiasm. (For the record, I don't get too much of the Family Guy vibe, other than the fact that it deals with a family. I do, however, see some parallels to Curb Your Enthusiasm).

So, I decided to purchase the first season box set at BBV with some credit I received from turning in DVDs. This was during their $8-minimum sale.

Blockbuster was selling it for the ungodly price of $34.99. However, after watching this show this show in it's entirety, I think I would gladly pay this price -- if need be -- just to own the 2nd season.

I very much enjoyed this show, and consider it one of my best blind buy purchases.

I think -- and this is through my own experience and speculation -- that sales of these sort usually last for a week. So, probably until Saturday.

I went and bought Return of the King: EE at Walmart as a Christmas present for my brother. It was at the great price of $22.87. I decided to go back for some other DVD purchases yesterday (Tuesday) to buy for someone else. I haven't bought ROTK for myself yet, and I figured I should take advantage of the price while I can. Unfortunately, they had changed the price to $29.99 that day.

I talked to a sales associate and he told me that they do this every Tuesday, to make way for the sales of that week's new releases -- which, of course, are on Tuesdays.

So, I guess it depends. But I saw it on sale this past Tuesday at Target, so I'm thinking you're good for that price 'til at least Saturday.

Damnit. I guess I missed out. I didn't buy it because it was at the top of my Christmas list. Guess what wasn't under the tree. I guess I will have to settle with STL on this one.

If you can wait, it might end up in a Fox Season 1 sale for $14.99.
