Wal-Mart is known as a "family" store. That's why all their $10 preorders aren't above the PG-13 rating -- like Star Trek and Julie & Julia.

anyone know if Target, Amazon, Walmart will ship out the DVDs seperate when doing the free shipping option? Or will they more than likely wait until the last DVD comes out and ship them all together? It looks like i can order one at a time on Target and do it that way if I have to. Just curious.

Your best bet is to submit separate orders for each item to assure individual shipping. Of course, this would be the best strategy for Wal-Mart and Target only since it would invalidate Amazon free shipping.

Amazon does occasionally break up orders that are spaced out. But I haven;t been able to fins a pattern as to when they do it.

I think my order will ship out separately. I ordered ST and HP6 in one order, but who knows what Wal-Mart will do.

I pre-ordered "Under the Dome" ($9.00) last month along with a few other things to pad out my order to hit the free shipping mark. They've already shipped the in-stock items.

But other times, I've done this -- pre-ordered a book six months before its ship date -- and one in-stock book, and they wouldn't ship the in-stock book until the pre-order shipped. Ironically, they shipped them in separate boxes anyway.

This makes a 1-day rental at Blockbuster for $5 seem even more ridiculous.

Ordered Potter from Wal-mart. Thinking about Angels & Demons, liked the book, just never saw the film.

WI has some stupid fair market value law. Just like last year, the Wal-Mart computer deal was $100 more. :(

What I don't get is how Best Buy gets away with it. Having $3.99 dvds etc.

Wisconsin (and I guess other states) has a minimum markup law.. so places are not allowed to sell merchandise below cost except matching competitors prices, expiring food products, clearance, and liquidation sales.

Here is an interesting article..

Basically they don't go looking for violators, just investigate complaints. They don't get many, but most complaints come during the holiday season from other competitors. :lol:

Has anyone ordered these titles and gotten them? I ordered Four Christmases and was told it shipped on Monday, November 23rd. Here it is December 4th and nothing has arrived. If this is what I can expect from ordering with Wal-Mart, I will never do it again.

It usually takes about 1.5 weeks before I receive packages from Walmart. You can call to see if your order has a tracking number or not.

Don't forget BING cashback (last reported at 20% for walmart.com).
