why no Target or Best Buy ads this week?
I've checked this forum a few times last week, waiting anticipatingly for the thread about BB and Target dvd prices.... and then on Sunday the newspaper comes and there's no ads for them there either.
what gives?? Are they taking a post-Easter break from putting out ads?

Target's ad is online only this week. I'm not sure about Best Buy.

When I went to Target last week, my receipt had a notification at the bottom "warning" that the ad would only be online this week. Makes pricematching harder, but there wasn't anything in the ads for me this week so it was moot.

We had a Best Buy ad in our paper Sunday--I was surprised since Speedy said no printed ads this week. Of course at this point it's online (plus I'm much lazier than Speedy) so I'm going to have to pass on typing it in.

^ No hassle at all.
In fact, my wife went up to the CS area and ask for a "Blu Ray" coupon. They handed her one and she ask for another one because she knows how I am! They said sure but only one coupon per transaction. We went over to the Blu Ray section and picked up movie and went and paid, too easy. I may use the other coupon this Saturday for Gone Baby Gone. I liked that movie but don't know if I want to blow another $16 on it!

ANd some of those stacked, and were involved in the buy one title, get one half off or something.
