I had stopped by my closest Target on Friday for something else and went to locate the BDs. They had one copy of Live Free or Die Hard and multiple copies of 3:10 to Yuma, the two titles I wanted. This morning I went in and there were no Die Hards on the shelf. I was told they didn't get any shipment of these. Target has been unreliable like this in the past. Doesn't inspire me to want to spend money there.

Thats why I went yesterday and hit a copy of Die Hard and 3:10 behind another normal DVD. That way they will be there for sure when I go in a few minutes.

I just went to Best Buy and had them price match so I didn't have to worry about finding titles I wanted. Got all I wanted.

No Live Free or Die Hard Blu-ray at my Target at noon today. They had at least one of each of the rest, but not enough to last more than a day or so.

Simpsons was my main choice, which they had 2. I ended up getting 300 as my second choice because I had many of the others already.

My target on Long Island, NY had about 10 copies of Die Hard 4 and 3:10 to Yuma out at 1:00pm today and they also had some in the stock room. Great deal and you can return one for either $14.99 or $15 if you only wanted one of the titles, I ask the Customer Service lady. Way to go Target!

Thanks Speedy! Got Die Hard and 3:10. Also there were two different locations at my target, one with the Blu-Ray and a separate endcap near the video games.

Yea, that's pretty crazy, even says on the receipt that the refund value of the titles are $14.99.

My finacee went this morning, and nabbed me Simpsons, Die Hard, 3:10 to Yuma, and Casino Royale for $60... comes to $15 a movie, which is almost the same as I'd pay for SD-DVD, which is an awesome price.

She said they only had 1 of each one, 2 at the most, so I'm glad she ran over there for me in the morning. Target has shitty Blu-Ray stock, surprised they are running a sale like this at all.

Were you able to get BB to PM the BOGO sale, or just Target's prices? Also, was BB specific about what titles you can get?

I tried to pick up all 3 Pirates BDs, but my Target was keen on the "these titles only" line in the ad. The $5 toy coupons worked though!

BB price matched Target's BOGO Blu-ray price by selling me each one for 14.99. Presumably, I could return one and still keep the deal.

I did the same thing at Best Buy, although it took over 20 minutes to get it done. Manager had to call two Targets after the first told him it was an online sale only. I even had the ad printed for him. They are such idiots at BB.

I got 3:10, Rat, POTC (Dead Man's Chest) they didn't catch that it was supposed to be AWE, and Ocean's for $14.99 each.

Also had them price match No Country For Old Men with Wal-Mart ($24.99) and used the $10 coupon so got that one for $14.99 too.

I guess the deals were worth putting up with BB IQ's

Is it possible to price match any of the "non-advertised/pictured" box sets anywhere?

The Riches: Season 1 is part of the TV sale being advertised this week at Target, but it isn't pictured in the ad. My local Target is out of it and I wanted to get it at $19.99 elsewhere.

My local BestBuy (Levittown, Long Island) wouldn't honor Target. Manager said we dont match B1 G1. So I went to Target and got Live Free + Pirates World's End. Not a ton of copies but okay. If they're pushing BD I'd like to see their version of bustin out the doors

I got Ratatouille and Simpsons on BD. No slipcover for my Ratatouille, though! Doesn't Disney hook up consumers with a slipcover if you call customer service?

Picked up Casino Royale and Pirates to go with the 300 and Ratatouille I picked up yesterday. I'm pretty happy since it was a great way for me to start my Blu-Ray collection!

Most folks are happy about this sale.

I picked up Die Hard and 3:10 to Yuma. While I was there, I happened to see they also had Beowulf HD DVD for $19.99. I was tempted to pick it up, but am trying to wait for a really good sale on HD DVD's. What do you guys think?
