DVD Talk Godfather & 2020 TOTY Winner
Price matched Fry's $13.88 price and got the free car at Best Buy. Nice deal.
Is the Bond Girls featurette the same as the one that Best Buy gave out with Die Another Day? Because if it is, I'll just box up that DVD and put CR in that slot in my DVD case. DVD space is at a premium (and I can't afford to replace all my old Bond DVDs with the new sets, unfortunately).

Or you could just get them from the manufacturer:

The cards and chip in the WalMart set are cartamundi, so they are reproductions of the cards (and chip) used in the movie which is cool.

If this promotion is applicable you should see the discount automatically on checkout. Not a bad deal as i still get the car and its close enough to CC price

The online promotion only allows the dvd version which truly sucks. You should be able to purchase the car separately and get a price adjustment at pickup to make it free. That way you get your 10% extra and the car. I believe their policy is if theres a better price in store or online at pickup you will get the better deal. Let us know if it works out for you.

Pricematched the frys.com price at CC and got the Blu-Ray version of Casino Royale for $22.29+tax. I didn't even ask for the 10% of the difference reduction because I didn't want to push it. Plus the guy voluntarily gave me the coin they were giving out.

BTW, the coin comes in a sealed sleeve. I think they were supposed to scan it so it appears on the receipt. But they did not, so in a few weeks I'm taking the DVD back and keeping the coin...
i bought it at the sunset blvd store and i was shopping at the glendale one when i saw it there
and the coin package says with purchase of the 2 disc dvd or Bluray.
so if you buy the bluray version you get the coin if they still have them.

Yeah this is one of two things that really upsets me about this set, they do everything in there power to disassociate this james bond is differnet from the prior 20 films and then they go and rehash this allready released corny featurette ("i started to wonder what makes a bond girl a bond girl......") from 4 years ago when Die another day came out on dvd.
instead of rehashing this why not give us some other things, such as the screentests that they tease us about in the documentary, or the whole press confrence when they announce craig is bond.
and we dont get one james bond trailer but yet we get 2 of the same spidey 3 2 of the same holiday previews and 2 of the same Pursuit of happiness previews. and zip zero zilch casino royale trailers, heck not even a james bond ultimate collection trailer.
and while i like the packaging i really would have liked it more if they would have made designed it in the same theme as the ultimate collections.
i will say this though i really enjoyed the Becomeing bond documentary.
very well done and really helped to explain more what they were trying to accomplish. i was one of those who before seeing the movie, despised the fact that they didnt use brosnan but once i saw the movie was just blown away. and listening to them talk on the documentary you can see why brosnan couldnt be in this bond.
really though all of this could have fit on one disc and still had a great picture and sound experience.

And if it isn't truely promotional content, they may even have to pay for it differently (ie: rights for temp music).
