As brief as the previous message was, I'm pretty sure he was not talking about the pricing.

Might finally bite the bullet and get a PS3. I really wanna play MLB '09 The Show, so getting it free might push me over the edge.

Thanks OP for at least hooking us up with the Blu-Ray prices. Will end up getting the Twilight Blu-Ray at Best Buy.

I'm happy we are at least getting something early. Beggers can't be choosers.

Also I hate to sound like a jerk, but if you think shit sucks...do something about it. Find a way to get DVDTalk's Bargain forums prices early. Other than that stop complaining or contribute more.

Re: Best Buy Media Prices: March 15-21

Not that great this week.

I might pick up Men in Black since I've heard it's a reference quality disc. Besides I've kinda been enjoying me some Tommy Lee Jones lately. One of my favourite movies, No Country, then saw him Wed in "In the Electric Mist", really good IMHO.

And what's with the constant "Black Hawk Down" sale every other week it seems. Someone must have ordered up a trillion of these to be pressed. I picked it up at BB a few weeks ago on sale and using the Sony coupon in that Sunday BR insert. Still haven't even opened it yet. I'm still wondering why I bought it.

You might be interested in this deal then thru March 14th, 2009:
....must apply for Sony card (new customers only), purchase in the time frame listed, and with a purchase of $349 or more, you get a $200 credit back to the card in 45 days. So, 80GB PS3 for $399 - $200 = $199.
' Offer expires 03/14/09. Must apply by 03/14/09. Acct must be open by 04/15/09. Qualifying Transaction must be made by 05/15/09 to receive $200 Statement Credit. When first single sales receipt purchase is made equal or greater than $349 within 45 days of Sony Card account open will automatically qualify customer for $200 Statement Credit. Statement Credit will be posted to their Sony Card Statement within 8-12 weeks from Qualifying Purchase (first purchase does not include balance transfer or balance transfer checks) account must be open and not in default at the time of fulfillment. Offer available to new Sony Card accounts only and only one $200 Statement Credit may be earned per Sony Card account. This promotional offer is available for new Sony Card account holders only; existing Sony Card account holders or accounts are not eligible.'
Also 0% financing for 12 months. If you don't mind signing up for the card, you get the PS3 for 1/2 price.

That is tempting, I just don't want another credit card. Will have to give it some thought.

Aren't there rumours of a price drop in April for the PS3?

I dunno, people keep saying "a price drop is coming, a price drop is coming". I guess eventually they have to be right.
How much is it expected to drop anyways? If it's not more than $50 then it would be a moot point in this case because the savings would be offset by a getting a free copy of a game that you would be paying an extra $60 for.

Darn, I was excited for a second thinking this was the best buy ad. I'm anxious to see it, because I need to get a laptop soon, and want to know if I should wait...

Soon. When stores start offering free games/gift cards there is a reason why...not only is a price cut coming, but by giving you a game/gift card you can't pricematch later.

I believe the general thinking on another PS3 price drop is that it will be about $100.
