Re: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides Blu-ray $9.95
From their website:
Note from Family Video:
Wondering why we can sell this HOT Blu-ray for ONLY $9.95? We need tons of DVDs for our in-store customers, but because Disney is only selling the Blu-ray/DVD Combo packs and DELAYING the DVD release, Disney is forcing us to purchase tons of Blu-ray/DVD Combo packs. This means we have thousands of UNUSED, LIKE NEW Blu-rays of "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" in their original packaging and available now to ship on or by street date. Our over-purchase means SAVINGS FOR YOU!

Re: The One and Only Current FamilyVideo.com Specials Thread
So, we're passing it onto our customers to purchase the Blu-ray with amazing savings, especially for Blu-ray player owners who just want the Blu-ray and not have to pay the higher Combo-pack price.
If you're considering buying "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides", I would highly suggest ordering now, because they are selling REALLY fast, and our supplies are limited. Buy here for just $9.95!

What's Eating Gilbert Grape Special Collector's Edition DVD - $4.99
Bizarre, whimsical, and touching scenes mark WHAT'S EATING GILBERT GRAPE. Johnny Depp is Gilbert, the eldest brother in a large family of a very large (morbidly obese, actually) mother (Darlene Cates) who hasn't left the house since her husband committed suicide years before. Leonardo DiCaprio, who received an Academy Award nomination for his role, is Arnie, Gilbert's retarded teenage brother who needs constant supervision (he's often found scaling the town water tower). Caring, passive Gilbert is burdened beyond reason, living a dead-end life in a dying small town, stocking shelves at a grocery store whose business being taken over by the new mall supermarket. Gilbert's best friends (Crispin Glover and John C. Reilly) see their futures in the form of undertaker and Burger Barn owner, and Gilbert's other social life is taken up with a random affair with a frustrated and reckless housewife (Mary Steenburgen). Everyone needs the constantly patient Gilbert, whose future seems equally grim until well-traveled, straightforward Becky (Juliette Lewis) and her nonconformist grandmother (Penelope Branning) come to town. Their camper is in need of repair, so Becky stays long enough to actually have an effect on Gilbert, making his new life spiral in wild ways. Based on the novel by Peter Hedges (who also wrote the screenplay), WHAT'S EATING GILBERT GRAPE is quirky, irresistible, and endearingly eccentric without being a freak show.

Re: The One and Only Current FamilyVideo.com Specials Thread
"VERY SLOW" what? Shipping or processing? I've made many orders with this company and each time has been better than the last, speedy shipping (arrived within 3 days!) and processing (received processed/shipped e-mail) was within 1 day after submitting the order as promised. Without looking at my notes, I don't think I've ever ordered anything that ended up being out of stock...
