There were plenty of copies of My Life at the Western Blvd Raleigh, NC store. I had picked that up used a few years ago for $3 on recommendation - really good movie; I was pleasantly suprised. --Peter

That is a good movie. I've just never been lucky enough to come across a widescreen copy, I'm always finding fullscreen only versions.

What's the matter, was she bigger than you ???

Don't you find yourself torn between "YAHOO, more great deals" and "DAMN IT, now where am I gonna put THESE ???"

Had a pretty good run since it looked pretty picked over.

1. Panic Room 3D (stuck in the back or I wouldn't have gotten this one!)
2. Whos the Boss s1 (had maybe 5 copies left)
3. Adv of Baron Munchhausen (not the 2D 20th anniv.)
4. Hudson Hawk SE (had the reg. vers. at Amazon sell a couple of months ago ... I NEVER NEVER - well almost never - buy the reg. vers if an SE exists)
5. Mothman 2D (THIS IS WHY!)
6. Adaption Suberbit
7. Sleepwalkers
8. Replacement Killers se
9. Gattaca SE
10. Mysterious Island (Ray Harryhausen)
11. Grudge 2 Ext Unrated
12. Bugsy 2d Ext
13. When Darkness Falls SE
14. Splitting Heirs
15. Dave Chappelle's Block Party
16. Balto 3
17. Junior
18. The Prisoner (Alec Guiness)
19. Psycho CE (New vers. no slash in UPC!)
20. Tailor of Panama

In retrospect I should have picked up Opportunity Knocks and Postcards from the Edge.

DID NOT GET: Hellboy 3D, Producers 2D, Mix Nuts (WS/FS)

Was shocked to see:
1. Memento 2D (had been like a year since I saw this)
2. Final Fantasy 2D .. .ditto ...
3. Monster 2D
4. An Evening with Kevin Smith 2 (except I read this thread!)

More like, I wish I could walk out of there without spending 60 dollars!

Last week almost 150 in two trips, now 60 ...

All my store had were full frame copies of this. Did you find a widescreen or did you get a pan&scan copy?

For some reason, didn't check before I bought, but yes it's FS ... in the return pile!

I hear ya on that...

Picked these up today:

Norma Jean & Marilyn
Perfect Witness (89)
Against the Wall
Lucky Louie season 1
The best of Arli$$


No luck on these other amazing restocks everyone is posting....
Hopefully they are at my stores soon....

Picked up a bunch today:

Panic Room 3-Disc (Last One)
Sleepwalkers
Charlie's Angels: 2 Disc Superbit
Bad Boys 2
The Boogeyman/Return Of The Boogeyman
Hollow Man (2-Disc Superbit)
Memento: 2 Disc
The 6th Day
Care Bears Movie
Philadelphia (Special edition) (Last One)
An Evening With Kevin Smith (Last One)

Almost picked up Booty Call, Replacement Killers and a few others. No sign of any Hellboy 3 discers. I feel glad that I own that already.

God damn,I wish my 2 big lots would get these restocks ASAP....

What stores are you near ???...What part of the country do you live in ???

Some people are reporting finding The Notorious Bettie Page. I wish that would show up at one of the stores close to me. I wonder why some stuff shows up in abundance one place, and not at all in others ???

The Big Lots near me has a shit selection.

No HBO titles anywhere. Not a single one. I was hoping I could find a Mothman 2D, Notorious Bettie Page, CE3K 2D, Leon 2D -- nada. They didn't even have any of the "desirable" discs I already have like Evening w/Kevin Smith 2, Memento 2D, Hellboy 3D, etc.

All I've managed to get are Bowling for Columbine 2D (for my girlfriend), Art School Confidential, Bubba Ho-Tep, and the Valley Girl SE (to upgrade from my barebones).

Indianapolis, Indiana

Nothing but new HBO restocks here....

The Big Lots out in Aston, PA had a new MGM display with some new titles and some from the previous display but i picked up..

The Fog SE
The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane
Blue Steel
Untamed Heart

LOL, yes. Also don't forget "Holy Crap, I paid $()* for this somewhere else!!!"

anyone lucky enough to find a copy of action:the complete series, I cannot recommend it highly enough. a sharp biting satire of the movie business that got cancelled after only 13 episodes. I am sure if it were made for hbo, it would have been a hit, but it failed because I truly believe it was way too good for commercial television and was a very adult! show. if you like entourage or the film "swimming with sharks" you will surely love this show.

Damn,I'm am so jealous of the people who actually got these new/restocks....

I would love to find these: (hopefully I will soon!)

The 6th Day
An Evening With Kevin Smith
An Evening with Kevin Smith 2
and a few others listed in this thread.....

The reason I asked your location was just in case there are other members here that might know of a Big Lots close by, but other than the ones you go to, where they may have seen what you're looking for. Worth a shot right ???

Yeah it's all good,Hopefully I run into some of these soon....

The restocks have finally hit the SF Bay area in force. Unfortunately, because when they are freshly stocked, they always cost me way too much money.

I got there with a complete restock, early in the morning, unpicked over. So here are some of my observations along with a list of purchases.

They have long DVD width replacement boxes for the restocks, in my store they were stacked high over the big DVD cubes of movies. One of these replacement boxes is filled full of $2 Christmas cartoons and a few Christmas live action DVDs.

I purchased for $2, all of these animated DVDs:

A Magical cartoon Christmas (9 classics like Peeping Penguins, Jack Frost etc)
Poochini The Christmas Tree
The Toy Shop
Magic Gift of the Snowman
The Night Before Christmas (Kevin Kline version)
The Nutcracker (Goodtimes DVD, Jetlag productions)
Felix the Cat saves Christmas
A Christmas Carol (Goodtimes DVD, Jetlag productions)

Here's what I noted about some of the harder to find DVDs that have already been listed so you see why they are relatively rare:

There were only 4 copies of The Notorious Bettie Page in the complete stock, and only 4 copies of the 3D Panic Room. There were 8 copies of the Deluxe edition of Guys and Dolls and 8 copies of the first season of Who's the Boss. There were only two editions of The Adventures of Baron Munchhausen in the whole stack. About 4 copies of Leon the Professional (uncut Intl edition).

I picked up the animated version of the Starship Troopers Chronicles for $3:

Roughnecks: The Zephyre Campaign
Roughnecks: The Klendathu Campaign
Roughnecks: The Tophet Campaign

Heres the rest of what I got for $3:

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen
Deluxe Edition of Guys and Dolls (includes collectible scrap book)
Leon the Professional
The Notorious Bettie Page (I picked up an extra copy for the first person to contact me)
In the Cut (Meg Ryan getting hot and steamy)
Into Thin Air (Death on Everest)
Close Encounters of the 3d Kind ( Collectors edition)
Bad Boys II (2 disk version)
Panic Room (3 disk Special edition)
Land of the Blind (Ralph Fiennes, Donald Sutherland)
Bugsy (Extended Cut)
Scoop (Woody Allen, Hugh Jackman, Scarlett Johansson)
The Boogyman (the original 1980 version, also includes Return of the Bogeyman)
The Devil's Backbone (Guillermo del Toro early film)
Who's the Boss Season One
Adaptation
The Hunt for the BTK Killer (what can I say)
Philadelphia (Anniversary edition)
Whoopi: Back to Broadway the 20th anniversary
Angel Rodriguez: a life in a day
Peter Bogdanovich's They all Laughed (25th Anniversary Edition)
Swimming Pool
Chris Rock: Never Scared
The Ratpack (John Mantegna, Ray Liotta, Don Cheadle)

Thanks for all the tips folks on what to look for and what was out there. Thanks to you, I knew what to look for and pretty much got everything that I wanted.

Is The devils Backbone the Special Edition release?

Just got home from the Big Lots in Milford, MA

Mostly the same stuff as what's been listed, although they did have the Sabata Trilogy box, and 4 Woody Allen boxsets (The set with Radio Days in it)

I only picked up The Fog SE, although there were two copies of Who's the Boss S1.

Nope, old release.

I find it amazing that they already have the Gattaca special edition, and other pretty recent new releases in the $3 batch.

Which Bay Area stores did you check?
