Thanks OP.
Looks like when I go out on Sunday morning I'll get a price adjustment for The Doors. Paid $6.99 the beginning of this month. It may only be $3, but it's something...

Not positive about YG though, but I don't think I've seen one lately without a slipcover, even though it's been out for quite a while now.

I try to never use them on an item that I have any chance of returning or adjusting. (Not blaming you, because anyone would have thought 6.99 was the best price it would be for awhile. Just saying that I try....)

And yes, online is usually the same price/deals.

And if they were made, what will happen to them?

It is often a huge pain.
But you could get lucky and have someone see the simplicity of just doing the simple 110% math, and refunding you the difference on a simple 1 for 1 exchange. But they usually do it the hard way.

Got it. Thanks Trevor. My BB is very by the book so I figure this will likely be a big pain in the ass. I might just go ahead & return it and exchange it for something else this week and then just buy it next week. An extra 30 cents is not worth the major effort it will likely take on the pricematch.
I wonder if you exchange something if they will apply the exsiting RZ credit or if you don't get the credit at all and they just send the RZ points back to your account? Ugh.

)Yeah, unfortunately, you may be screwed no matter how you try to exchange it. Well, you should be able to get it to work, but it will take persistence on your part and an intelligent BB employee. They will try to just give you the partial/after RZ price if you return it, with you therefore forever losing that partial credit. The points do not go back to your account. I wish they'll just changed those RZ certs to work just like giftcards, it would be so much easier and less confusing for them and us.
It might work better if you just try to exchange the title for a title of the exact same pre-RZ price. That should make sense to them, and they'll change the price of your new item to match the returned item price.
I don't envy the probable 10+ minutes you'll spend at the counter. But hopefully you'll get lucky and it will go smoothly. Let us know how it works!

That being said, I agree that there has to be some Blades of Glory Blu-Ray out there considering the proximity of the release date.

As far as the devil in the sewers...you must have not been doctrinated correctly. The devil is everywhere and he is talking to you all the time.

Since it's still within the 30 day price guarantee period, or whatever it's called, I may just try and get it refunded to that price and not argue over 45 cents. (Not that I am going to drive out there over just $3 anyway, but I am going to get all the Kung Fu seasons too if they are only $14.99 each.)

How long does it take for purchases to show up on the summer rewards program?
I spent 60 bucks yesterday and they have not posted it yet.
And is underworld evolution @ 5.99 really apart of the giftcard deal?

Woo-hoo! I was going to order from Amazon, but I'll just pick up Friday Night Lights for $19.99! (Maybe once Sunday rolls around the online price will drop and I'll get free shipping...)

I'm curious about this: I spent $112 on Sunday (10 DVDs were a part of the $9.99, get 5 and receive a $20 gift card deal). On my SOE amount online it shows I spent $72 (deducting the $40 in gift cards?). I thought my purchase Sunday earned me a $10 SOE certificate, now it seems I may be $30 short!

Yeah it's wrong, and if complained about, you might be able to get that waved. Ether way Best buy gets there 20 bucks, Wether it was a "Free gift" or if you paid for it.
You spent over 100 bucks... Even if they are dis-counting the gift card. They have that money already.
Whats the point of the free gift card? Why not just have a 6 dollar dvd sale.
