Older versions of Universal 1930's horror films Frankenstein, Dracula, Wolf Man, and The Mummy were $5.99 each. These are not the Legacy versions.
Didn't see any of the sequels like the Bride of Frankenstein.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Ellery Queen for $29.99.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

I saw the old mini-series Rich Man, Poor Man for $32. For those who don't remember (or who aren't old enough), this was one of the first mini-series (before Roots) and was Nick Nolte's breakout role. I haven't seen it since it ran on TV, but I do remember thinking that Susan Blakely was the sexiest creature to walk the earth.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Its not just Rich Man Poor Man but the sequel is also included in this set.
I don't believe Nick Nolte is in the sequel.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Last night at the Iwilei (Ala Kawa St.) Costco I got The Mummy (1932) for $5.99 and Gone Baby Gone for $8.99

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Costco disgusts me. A small stack of Scott Pilgrim DVDs shoved in a corner along with bargain priced catalog titles, while a prominent display of Dudley Moore's "Santa Claus: The Movie" sits next to Toy Story 3 in the front.

I guess that's what I get from a store who has employees who think they are funny by putting G.W. Bush's autobiography next to two other prominent fiction releases, instead of the non-fiction political section.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Just picked up The Original Christmas Classics DVD Set (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Frosty the Snowman, Santa Claus is Comin' to Town, Frosty Returns, Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol, Little Drummer Boy, Cricket on the Hearth).

17.99 - $5 Costco coupon I received in the mail.
Coupon is good November 11 - 28.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

Not quite sure I get what disgusts you about their Christmas display, but vis-a-vis Bush Jr's autobiography, I think you're stretching things quite a bit if you think that much thought actually went into putting the book into the "fiction" section. Anyway, I've never seen very clearly marked fiction and "non-fiction" sections in any Costco I've been in--several around the country.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

I would imagine that it was placed by the two fiction books because they were grouping the anticipated top-sellers together. While other non-fiction, political books may have been grouped together, they probably were on a lower tier of public awareness.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

It probably should have been in the section where they put the coloring books and other stuff for illiterates.

Re: General Costco DVD Thread
 

You might want to stick with posting DVD bargains; your attempted barb lacked wit and originality.
