I will take a guess and say it'll be anywhere from $24.99 - $29.99. Best Buy shows $28.99. I think Amazon.com is $27.99, which is the lowest price I've seen for it.

No online prices are as cheap as $25 and the 2-discer is absent from the Sunday ad for every major retailer (BB, CC, Target); if their online prices are any confirmation of what the in-store prices will be, then around $28 is as good as it's gonna get...

I'm not sure if you guys want to wait a month considering the supply might be completely gone by then. This is a limited run just like the Jarhead and Cinderella Man 2 disc editions.

Maybe Tower will have this cheapest for like $20, just like they did with the two discers for Walk The Line and Narnia?

A great film.... No.
But the second DVD was exceptional in my opinion.

I may decide to go the R2/R3 route with this one. I didn't manage to get hold of the Jarhead 2 disc version, but plan to get the German R2 version from CDWow. It's $23.95 with free worldwide shipping and if you upon checkout signup for a free trial to freeshipping.com you get $10 cashback (I already did that on a previous order).
Currently they are not showing the LE of Munich on their site though. Only 1 disc R2 and R3.

I don't know if this applies to anyone else, but if you have a Barnes and Noble card and a AAA card, you can get it at barnesandnoble.com for about $23.
Just go to www.aaa.com/barnesandnoble ... That gets you the 5% AAA discount and be sure to use your B&N card for the other 5%.

Well, here's another DVD I was planning to buy until now. I was happy to blind buy this (I missed it in theatres) because I saw that Best Buy would have it for 16.99 and figured the extra features would make it a good thing to own.
BUT, they're doing that retarded "tier" system where what used to be the standard two-disc release is now a special limited twice-as-expensive release. They're losing me as a customer, too, because I am not going to buy a bare-bones edition because that's worthless, and I refuse to spend 30 dollars on a 2-disc set. Period. 30 bucks used to be the standard price for 3 or 4 disc sets, but now 2???!!
Only Criterion can get that kind of scratch from me.

$22.99 - sort of
I'm buying it at Amazon, in the same purchase as Towering Inferno and Poseidon Adventure special editions, which refunds $5.00 when bought together. So I'm pretending those two are at their already discounted price and that Munich 2-Disc Limited is $5.00 less - $22.99.
With free shipping and $0.77 A9 discount, a total of $48.20.

I got an advertisement from ShopKo in the mail on Saturday, and they are advertising the two disc at $22.99, which is the best price I've seen for it. Check it out if you have a ShopKo in your area.

I went to Wal-Mart tonight to try and get the 2 disc Munich. The tard stocking the shelves could not get a handle on what I was looking for. He kept trying to give me the one with the Wal-Mart exclusive. I kept saying "no, this is a second disc all in the same package." He'd say "What movie is on the second disc?" I'd say "not another movie... it's bonus material." Then he'd show me the Wal-Mart bonus disc and say "this one has the bonus material." We went in circles like this for some time, but I finally had to walk away before I got any more frustrated (Damn sinus headache was already killing me). I was able to buy the 2 disc Walk the Line there and tried to explain that this was a similar situation. I don't think they are carrying it. I'm ordering from DDD as I fear this one will be very limited and I live in a city with no local Best Buy or CC and I don't care to burn the gas to look for it. It's a blind buy, but if it's as limited as Jarhead, I figure it will be easy enough to unload if I don't like it. I generally like Spielberg films although I found The Terminal to be a cure for insomnia. I got the 2 disc Narnia and War of the Worlds releases used from Amazon Marketplace sellers at good prices. Somehow I don't think this one will be that easy to find later on.
