Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I saw a couple of copies of Season 2 Vol. 2 of thundercats around Orange, CA.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I made my rounds at 3 more stores in my area and was finally able to pick up:
ER S7
Animaniacs V2
Blade TV Series
Super Friends - The Legendary Super Powers Show

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I saw Friends 1, 3, 5 and 8 in Greenville, SC (Farrs Bridge/White Horse Road area). At least two/three copies of each as of yesterday around 5 PM. Was in electronics aisle scattered about.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I got mine years ago, but I don't think you can tell w/o opening it. Big lots return policy is pretty liberal, so I would just go ahead & open it, if its not there, take it back for another.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Elyria Ohio Big Lots today had a huge new Warner shipment. I bought

The bad Seed
Dead Ringer
He knows Youre Alone
They drive By night
Dark Passage
Passage to Marseille
Each dawn I die
Bullets or Ballots

Tons of each as well as at least 3 dozen Scooby Doo Movies Sets. Also saw but already own

Caged Warner camp classics
LAnd of Pharoahs camp classics

All of these were clamshell, not snapper or thincase. Best of luck!

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I picked up:

-Michael Douglas Collection (Falling Down, A Perfect Murder, and The American President) for $6. I don't think this has been mentioned...
-Pinky and the Brain Vol. 2
-God, the Devil, and Bob

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I would say then you're probably right. Knots and Falcon were two shows I never watched back in the day (but was aware of), so probably just mistook one for the other when I was remembering what I saw on the dump table.

Pretty sure it was a season one set.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Having never even been in a Big Lots before, I had to check out the one nearby since someone mentioned finding seasons of Nip/Tuck and Smallville on Blu-ray in another thread....
Well, one store led to two, then three, finally I ended up visiting every one in the Richmond, VA area yesterday as the hunt for these DVD deals consumed me!

I ended up finding (and buying) all of these box sets:
Smallville S6 & S7 Blu-ray
Joey S1 (now I can buy S2 from Canada and see all those unaired episodes!)
Thundercats S1 V1 & S2 V2
The History Of Rock And Roll
Animaniacs V1 & V2
Pinky And The Brain V1 & V2
Scooby Doo S3
The New Scooby Doo Movies
Superfriends V2
Superfriends: Legendary Super Powers complete series
Wonder Woman complete collection (only $6, WTF?? How they are selling this one at the same price as the individual seasons is beyond me....)

Also bought some $2 animated/childrens titles: a couple animated Alf DVDs for me, a few Care Bears for nostalgia for the wife, and a Clifford for my two year old....

I guess I should check this thread (and these stores) more often now!

PS: Forgot to mention, saw lots of other stuff while I was out there, but I either already own it (like Friends, Dukes Of Hazzard, The OC, and standard def Nip/Tuck), or was not interested in it, even at $6 (like ER, Dallas, West Wing, etc.).....

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I usually just lurk here, but wanted to give HUGE thanks to everyone who has been posting updates about these Big Lots box sets. I have found a LOT of great stuff in the past week or so.

I found two titles today that I don't think I have seen mentioned yet:

Superman: The Animated Series, Vol. 1 (I snagged the only copy)

Justice League Double Feature (2 discs) - Secret Origins / Paradise Lost (saw a few of these)

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

This thread brings back memories of searching through the CAMELOT MUSIC bins for cut-out LaserDiscs. Anyone else old enough to remember?

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Went back to a couple Detroit area stores I visited last week.. 1 Got it's first shipment out...
New stuff was Dukes of Hazzard S2.

Other store got another shipment (?) and put it out.. They had bunches of the same stuff... Anyway, still hoping to score

Smallville S6 Blu
OC S3
Friends S1, S2, S4, S10....

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

You bet.... that was a joy... I always say much of the thrill is in the hunt....

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

No new sets put out today but 5 flats of the $3 titles that have shown up before. I did manage to finally get:

Outland
Pennies From Heaven
Hero at Large

None of which were slashed but some of the assortment were slashed with white stickers over the slash.

One that caught my eye that I had to leave was a John Wayne collection title I hadn't seen mentioned. Tall in the Saddle is what I think it was called.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

My Roots set was defective also it had 2 Disc 1's and no Disc 3, i was able to exchange it. There was more restock of the Warners and Boxsets i picked up

Wonder Woman Complete
Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 3
The Wild Bunch
The Right Stuff
Infamous
everything is illuminated
brainstorm
Cobra/Tango and Cash Double Feature $3

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

^^Interesting. I picked up "Tall in the Saddle" yesterday and the UPC wasn't slashed. It was the only copy I saw. I've also seen several slashed titles with the white stickers over the slash/UPC.

Went back today and found an unslashed copy of "There was a Crooked Man" which I snagged. I'll return the slashed copy. :)

Also found:

The Gay Divorcee
Roberta
Flying Down to Rio

all slimpaks and "The Gay Divorcee" wasn't in shrink wrap (found 4 copies and none were).

As someone else has mentioned I think these originally might have been in the "Astaire & Rogers Collection, Vol. 2" and have been unpackaged for clearance. I've not seen "The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle" or "Carefree" and "Follow the Fleet" is not part of that set.

And they had added Nightcourt - S1 to the box sets. The ladies reorganizing the wire rack (had a diagram to tell them where to put everything) told me there were no other TV sets in the back. :(

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I had picked up Nightmares & Dreamscapes for $6 the other day as it was included with the TV on DVD display. Today I spotted a copy in with the regular $3 DVDs and it was priced at $3 so I'll be taking the $6 one back. Just a heads up if you're wanting this title, you could find one marked $3. I called my next nearest store in Tallahassee, Fl and was told the TV on DVD display is not out yet. Their sale date starts on Wednesday and not Sunday or so I was told. My local store here in Thomasville, GA had added a few more today that included all but S6 and S7 of Dallas, a single copy of Wonder Woman S3, Blade the series and not much else. I did manage to pick up Animaniacs vol 2.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

LOL... just now saw this. Yes, please somebody, anybody get me a Wonder Woman complete set if you see an extra one. I will trade you something you want or just pay you outright thru paypal. Thanks in advance!!

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Picked up these recently:

Scooby Doo Movies Box Set $6
Sam kinison Unleashed $6
Bustin Loose $3

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

This is funny. I used to work at a Camelot in Houston while I was attending college in the mid 90s. My manager would literally shuffle through the shipments to see what cutout laserdiscs were coming in and buy what he didn't already own. He had one hell of a collection back in the day.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Hit my biglots just now after work and they were just starting to put out the box sets! I grabbed a History of Rock, Animaniacs V1 & Pinky & the Brain V2. They had lots of these titles but not much else - I saw Joey S1 and one each of a couple Dukes of Hazzard sets. No blu-rays or 2-disc SEs that I've been looking for. They did have a couple of SouthPark Bundles - not season sets but 3 dvds shrink-wrapped together for $6. I already have almost all the seasons so I passed on those. I never watched animaniacs or Pinky & the brain so I hope those are good. I might go back before closing to see if they put anything else out.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I saw at least four Thundercats Season 2, Volume 2 sets at the Big Lots on Clairemont Mesa Blvd today. I have yet to see any other Thundercats season sets other than this one. I also haven't seen Animaniacs Vol. 3 either.:(

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I know where EVERY Wonder Woman Complete set went in Pasadena (I didn't buy them). There were originally three. You can thank the CH king for the one you got.






These people are going to be disappointed b/c they could make more money at McDonalds. they will be luck to make two bucks a set after fees, etc.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

My usual Big Lots stores had a fresh batch of dvd box sets out today. Picked up the following:

Pinky and The Brain Vol. 1&2
The History Of Rock & Roll
Scooby Doo, Where Are You? S3

Wonder Woman S3 (last copy)
Wait Til Your Father Gets Home

Saw plenty of the other boxes (Dallas, Friends, Joey, Dukes Of Hazzard, Super Friends, Scooby Doo Movies, ER, etc.) But no sign of Wonder Woman Complete Series.:( Hope to spot Animaniacs V.3 and the elusive Wonder Woman box someday.:)

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

sam kinison unleashed was a cool find! it is both hbo specials on 1 disc

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Wow.. what seasons of Curb Your Enthusiasm have you seen?? Has anyone else seen any?? I would love to find those.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

picked up the history of R&R...its gonna make a great gift. Oh and my local store, had a ton of NFL box sets too.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

May be lucky to find one of those - my local BL only had 3 copies on the shelf & I believe I was the 1st one in the store that day to get one(it was a freshly stock item). I can't see any other BL getting much more - nothing like number for the Roots, Dukes of Hazzard, etc series.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Thanks for the post! :)

That said... I went down this evening to grab any extras that I could after I read your post. Planned on snagging any Blu and Wonder Woman Complete for the peeps here. Of course, they were gone by the time that I got there. Almost missed the display since it was separated from the normal DVD section. Needed to make a return anyhoo (LOTR: TT - long story) but I just exchanged it for Roots 30th instead. So, all was not a loss...

I'm getting the feeling that the ER sets are one of the harder to find items. Fingers crossed that there may be some more on Sunday, but I'm not really expecting to find any...


I noticed in their return policy at the desk that the first day of the ad starts on Wednesday... So, it looks like we may be hitting them up on Sunday and Wednesday.

v

Eastland in Lexington, KY update... Roots 30th in stock. That's about it... Other than one of the cashiers saying how are you doing today, as in... you're in here again huh? :lol:

If they would let me, I would camp out by the DVD rack... Ridiculous.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I got there about 11:30am. Wonder how much time passed between our visits?


Yeah, no kidding! I had to ask an employee where they were (as you say, nowhere near the 'normal' place they keep them).


Saw this one in Richmond, too (thanks for jogging the memory).

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Hey guys, I don't think anyone has posted this yet. It's from their Sunday ad:

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Thanx so much dino. Ive ben waiting for that. Its not the best for BB pricematching (i know theres a slight chance that will work to begin with). But i might try pricematching Animaniacs or P&B.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

7:00 PM... Stopped by Eastland on the way out of town and had already secured a Roots 30th. Holding the extra for now and keeping an eye on the exchange thread... May return it this weekend.

Forgot to mention... On the way back in, since the Richmond display was out of bounds so to speak, I buzzed by the Turfland / Lane Allen spot. Nothing new but I picked up Roots Next Gen while I was there since I had Roots 30th.

Gas money is starting to suck a bit but I'm very much considering a two Lexington store, Georgetown, Frankfort trip the next time... Hope I don't drive on to Louisville. All I need is an excuse... Ugh. For the time being I'm pretending that Florence, Newport and Cincinnati don't exist.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Is Roots The 30th in this scan?

I picked up Scooby Doo Movies and NBA Dynasty:Lakers (they had about 15 copy of Roots The Next Gen!

Does anyone have a extra Roots 30TH to trade for or sell me for cost!

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Thanks for clarifying that. Yep - it's the Blu version I'm going crazy trying to score (hit another 3 stores today in NJ - no dice).
I actually have a spare of that (if You have a Smallville S6 Blu for trade...)...
That Aquaman disc was a Best Buy exclusive, so I seriously doubt it'll show up in any of the BL Smallville's.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

nashua,nh had ER's, History of Rock, Los Angeles Lakers, Dallas', scooby's, west wings, friends, night courts and dukes of hazzard, and steven king nightmares and dreamscapes, pinky's and animaniacs

I picked up a pinky, not sure if I have it.

was looking for smallville's, wotta woman's and justice leagues or super friends.

I went to Milford, MA on Tuesday and drew a goose egg, but I see they had stuff on Wednesday.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Have a Wonder Woman complete series to trade for smallville season 6 bluray...

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

I don't recall these being mentioned before, but....
Today, I saw the following:

The Drew Carey Show S1
Full House S?
Tracey (Ulman) Takes On S1

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

You can get the Aquaman pilot on iTunes.

Re: Big Lots Part 4
 

Just FYI, if you Buy Roots & Roots Next Gen, you will still be missing ROOTS:The Gift which is available only in the complete collection. That's why I passed on those sets...
