All store exclusives and freebies - 11/11/07 to 11/17/07
These weekly threads are for the posting and discussion of that particular week's store exclusives and freebies.
These lists will likely be incomplete until Thursday or so, since DVDs are released on Tuesday and one of us needs to visit all the stores to confirm things.
Links to the master list and to the previous and next week's thread are below.
Volunteers needed: I regularly go to Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, and Walmart; but don't visit the other stores every week. If you work at or regularly go to the FYE/TWEC chains, Costco, Borders, K-mart/Sears, Barnes and Noble, Blockbuster, Hot Topic, or any other store that has DVD exclusives; I'd appreciate any updates you could give us.

Sales reps have the usual speech about "limited quantities". But, given how early I visited these stores, I'm 100% certain they never got any.
Anyone have better luck?

free with pre order or with purchase, most stores should have gotten at least ten sets.

Since it's holiday season, maybe they have big shipments of DVDs and don't get the chance to open all the boxes right away? Dunno... but since the pricing goes on until Saturday, I'd probably check in later in the week to see if they got more shipments/put more out to replace stock that's been selling through the week
