Sam's Club had the 2 disc version, with a movie companion book for $24.
I almost picked it up but the lines were too long and the book must have been flimsy because the package wasn't any wider than the DVD box.

Reserved a space on my shelf next to the kK box set, KK ('76), and the Production Diaries. Yeah I'm excited. Now only if I had a Tower Records flyer. Guess I'll bite the bullet and get it from Target, along with their $26 bookcase.

Of course this may be Taboo to talk about in this thread, but if you have a columbia house account you can get the 2 disc special edition and another title buy one get one free... I picked up The new 3 Disc Ten Commandments set and the 2 Disc Kong set for just a bit over $18 shipped... Can't beat that!!

Went to Tower in Tustin, CA and was able to use the Papa John's $3 off coupon with no problems! The guys at the register didnt know what to do first, but after calling someone (manager im assuming) they gave it to me for $13.99. Not a bad deal at all for KK 2-disc.

Just got back from Costco -- the 2-disc KK was $20.89, and the one-disc version was bundled with the boxed KK Production Diaries for $27+. Don't get me started about paying $26 for the damn box last fall...Didn't see the single disc separately, but I really wasn't looking.

My first order from Tower goes bad. But they seem to have good customer service and the bad hub isn't their fault.

Looks like WalMart is actually showing the 2-disc version for 18.87. Here's the link.
Question is will that be the in-store price?

the wal mart in TUlsa had the single disc packed with a book. It looks like the size of a dvd...I think people are confusing this with a bonus disc. Anyone have a pic to disprove me?

Picked up the 2-Disc KK, plus a few others (Dune Extended, Frighteners Director's Cut and Serenity) that I had been waiting for price drops on (no need to wait here) for $44.xx including tax.
Considering I was all set to drop $19.99 plus tax at Borders for KK, the extra $20 + tax for the other 3 was worth it to me.

As Cameron said, it's a book, not a bonus disc. Linky-poo to Walmart.com
