It is housed inside a box with bluray movie + journal where you slide out on the right side of the box.

Anyone opened the journal and can post some pictures? Anything special or written inside?

You should have waited until tomorrow to say that.

And thanks to all of you for filling in the blanks when I have a 'bad week', or month, like most of September and October. It's nice to know that between all of us we probably get every exclusive mentioned in these threads. It's hard to believe that we've been doing this for almost 4 years now.

Happy early Thanksgiving everyone!

This post will list all DVD exclusives and freebies found for the release week of 11/29/09 to 12/05/09.

New release price comparisons in their own weekly threads.

Thread "instructions" spoilered.
Spoiler:
This thread is for the posting and discussion of all DVD exclusives and freebies.

These lists will likely be incomplete until Wednesday or so, since DVDs are released on Tuesday and one of us needs to visit all the stores to confirm things.

Links to the master list and to the trade thread are below.

Volunteers needed: I regularly go to Best Buy and Target; but don't visit the other stores every week. If you work at or regularly go to the Wal-Mart, FYE/TWEC chains, Costco, Borders, K-mart/Sears, Barnes and Noble, Blockbuster, Toys-R-Us, or any other store that has DVD exclusives; we'd appreciate any updates you could give us. I am slowly "retiring" from my weekly chain crawls, and will need your help to keep these threads useful.

All Stores - Thread for all movie cash and free ticket deals

Best Buy -
Terminator Salvation BD - Endoskull case
free door hanger with pre-order of The Hangover
free comic with pre-order of Terminator Salvation
free trading cards with pre-order of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

These are the Terminator Salvation exclusives I'm aware of so far:

Terminator Endoskull (Best Buy)
Comic (Best Buy)
2-Disc Uncut DVD (Target)
Terminator Salvation Machinima series (I thought it was a Walmart exclusive, but it might be available everywhere)
FYE (Steelbook - Blu-Ray/DVD?)

Internationally:
Steelbooks available from several different countries (not sure if they all look the same)
Special packaging with MotoTerminator (Japan?)

Did I miss any?

Machinima Series is available everywhere, they have it for $5 on Amazon and BestBuy, I got mine from the $5 Walmart Bin.

I would have bought the steelbook from fye but unless there is a miracle looks like that is probably canceled.

I think I might get the target 2 disc exclusive, has anyone seen it early? I am wondering if it comes with a Slipcover.

Hi. On Black Friday, we hit WalMart last because there wasn't much there we were interested in. The DVD sections were pretty much cleared off and not much selection left. Did anyone noticed WalMart exclusives edition available as I remember last year they had a handful.
Thanks

Doh! Found a third exclusive for this title.

Walmart

Nothing Like the Holidays - 30 minute cooking show, other extras (don't have this with me, details could be wrong, exclusive sticker on slipcase)

Target had the other exclusive, a 2nd DVD.

Not sure on the Digital Copy.. but this isn't just a lenticualr package.. its a plexiglass package. (i couldn't take it out of the box so I'm not totally sure what the end look will be.) The item weighs over a pound maybe 2.. If I was a HP fan I would totally jump on this as it looks pretty cool!

Thanks! Fixed. Confirmed that the digital copy is in all of the 2 disc editions, Target just has confusing wording in their ad as usual.
