OK, here is the best (cheapest) way to get this that I have found. I found out about a 3-day sale at CC (starting today, ending Saturday) from Cheapassgamer. One of the coupons is usable online for $3 off DVDs $19.99 or more. I remembered reading somewhere (probably here or FW) that CC had mispriced the Collector's Edition at $19.99 (next week's ad shows it at $29.99). Once they tack on the shipping and the tax, it still comes to less than $20 (and I have one of the highest tax rates around).

Apply code: FVAUNH9AKT at checkout for $3 off.

This is a blind buy for me. I know a lot of people liked it, and a lot of people hated it.

Edit: CC has corrected the price on the website to $29.99, probably as of yesterday.

Nice find, guessed. I went ahead and placed an order at CC for this just now. I was planning on going to Costco since their website lists the 2-disc set for $19.49, but this ended up being $19.34 after shipping, tax and the coupon. I'm not sure if Costco will actually have the 2-disc in store for the price on their website, so this way I saved a couple cents, and am guaranteed that I'll get the right one (if not, I can take it up with customer service).

guessed, thanks for the coupon. I ordered the 2-disc version with the unrated Blade Trinity disc for $14.99. Since the order was over $25. Shipping was free. And the $3 off came off the Lemony disc. Making it $16.99. This also lowered the tax charge.

Thanks Guessed. Ordered the 2 disk LS and Survivor Season 2 that is on a web only sale of $10 off select boxsets. So 29.99 for Survivor Season 2 (its 32.99 in next weeks ad) and 19.99 for 2 Disk Lemony. $3 OFF both for a total with free shipping + tax of $47.89.

Circuit City stores will have a bonus disc. Is there any chance of getting them to pricematch Amazon's price for the 2-disc set or their own online price?

No and probably not, respectively. Though just a guess, I would expect that the exclusive bonus disc is just excerpts from the 2 1/2 hr doc on disc two (much like BB did with Van Helsing and other dreleases as well).

And thanks to the OP. I got Lemony and Springsteen's new album for $29.00 shipped.

Thanks guessed. I gave it a shot, but I wouldn't be surprised if CC sent me the one-disc or canceled the order once they catch their error come Monday morning.

CC has been known to honor misprices before, so I'm not too worried about this one. If they do send out the one-disc version for whatever reason, I'm sure it won't be too much of a problem to print out your order with the correct UPC and exchange it at a local CC (having never done this, I'm just speculating).

You could just order it from DeepDiscount at the relatively cheap price of 21.89 and not have to worry about shipping. That's probably what I'll do, depending on how much more expensive it is at Best Buy when I go on Tuesday.

BB's price for the 2disc is $27.99, according to their site.
