HI Kids!

Got the Best Buy circular for 8/10/08 - 8/16/08 in my hands.

  • ALL: Take 25 % off ALL Miramax DVD when purchased at BestBuy.com/dvdsale // Sale is valid online only
  • GAMERS: The Wii is NOT listed in this week’s ad …… Sorry!
  • From time to time special deals / prices will be listed in the Store Notes Section & the in the product price thread that may or may not be available in your specific geographic area.

Only spines are shown but for Monty Python I'd say it's the 2 DVD Special Edition.


Drillbit Taylor is listed as the Extended Survival Edition

Even though the ad only lists 1 title, I suspect that they'll have in an instore display of the eligible titles.

Of course, that does not help us here and now.

I believe that the same thing holds true for the Maltese Falcon. There was the old one disc that was then replaced by the three disc which has the 1941 & 1931 versions of the film and Satan Met a Lady thrown in for good measure.

I skimmed right past the $9.99 Stagecoach 2-disc initially, but luckily alfonsosoriano mentioned it. Will use one of my $5 rewards certificates on that one and possibly Maltese Falcon, as well. Thanks!
