Nothing for me that week. I may order the Kingdom of Heaven set from Overstock for $15, but I'm not sure yet.

i might get transamerica too, but i am unsure at this point. will have to look at the reviews.

Already pre-ordered Boondock Saints which is a Steelbook release and Kingdom of Heaven: 4D Directors cut so I'll snag Deadwood Season 2 in store. Good week!

Damn, I was hoping Dirty Dozen would be cheaper. I guess I'll have to wait for a pricedrop.

Nowadays it seems rare for B&M stores to have 2 DVD editions for under $17.99, so I'm not surprised. On the one hand they are jacking up the prices of 2 DVD SEs (i.e. Harry Potter 4, King Kong SE, Narnia SE), and on the other hand they are dropping the prices on some re-releases barely a month later, plus many titles end up in Walmart's cheap bin or in a $6 DDD sale within 6 months. They just give me more reasons not to buy on release week.

Given that I have over $100 in Suncoast gift cards which I need to use before they go under (my local store is still open fortunately), Dirty Dozen @ $19.99 is a good choice to get at Suncoast since it's hard to find anything worthwhile there under $15.

Speedy, any chance you could list the details of the 42" plasma TVs?

Otherwise, nothing here...I'm only picking up Wrestlemania 22, and it's $5 cheaper at Circuit City, soooo....

Thanks for all your work, Speedster!

Thanks for the prices, speedy!

Excellent price on Deadwood s2! I'm definitely getting that.

Looks like it was a good idea to preorder the KoH set online.

Also a nice price on Pikmin 2, though I already own that (and paid $15 more than that at the time- ouch!)

Slightly off topic... but aren't HD tv's supposed to be 1080p? (as opposed to 720p advertised)

Nope. There are 1080p tvs and 720p. Companies are still making 720p.

Looks like I'll be picking up Deadwood this week. I had planned on waiting for the DDD sale, but this should come out to be less than that.. Kudos to BB, and kudos to speedy for always giving us the early ads!

Thanks!

Went to BB today (5/14) and they already had the Boondock Saints DVD out. Paid $19.99 for it and I'll just return next week and have them match CC's $17.99 price plus an extra 20 cents...

not a huge deal but you don't get the extra 10% off the difference at Best Buy when they are matching their own price.
