Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
Found a TON of the mythical "3" blu Ray sets today at an out of town Big Lots... Picked up one for me and two for the trade forum, was hoping to snag the two disc strangers on a train but struck out. I mustve left behind about 9-10 bundles with that bluray in it.
Only store out of about 10 I've visited that had it... Another store had a ton of the playmaker tilt bundles... I've really liked these espn bundles. The Tyson set is amazing.

New Warne'r $5 pallet arrived, picked up Zodiac 2-Disc 1 left and it was a floater.
I hope they aren't trying to retrain us to the higher price.
Both the Zodiacs were shrink wrapped but showed no other used signs, everyone else's shrink wrapped too?
Didn't see Twilight Zone

Was Pee Wee the snapper? Interesting, a lot of $3 Warner titles weren't slashed. I saw Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome in keepcase, but it was slashed.

The San Bernardino, CA store had a big multi-layer display.
There are stuff I couldn't get to... yet.
Took home:
Heroe At Large
The Ice Pirates
Undead Or Alive
Space Cowboys (the copy I found wasn't slashed nor dented)
Escape From Fort Bravo
Strangers On A Train: Two - Disc Special Edition
and
The Phantom Of The Opera: 2 - Disc Special Widescreen Edition (bought since I needed a non-slashed case for SOAT).
I did see various Superman titles. I wanted to take home House On Haunted Hill with Vincent Price, but the cardboard case was damaged. Not cut, but dented and ruffled. I'm hoping to find a better copy in spots I couldn't access.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
Since my review of the area Lehigh Valley stores a few days ago,I got a chance to revisit the one I rarely visit. Good thing. The reason why this one is always a step behind,seems to be the lack of volume. DVDs were moved to the far left front of the store. Still chaos. But that can prove to be a good thing. There's stuff from the Valentine Day $3 dumps up to the Father's Day ESPN and PV $5 deal still in pretty heavy quantities. And the new bunch of $5 mostly Warner stuff was in full stock. In the last couple of weeks,I've broken a rule and bought some $5 stuff,though all of it was with a good reason. For $5:Jaws 2 disc Standard,Bonnie & Clyde 2 disc,Superman I four disc(primarily for the score and remastered cartoons,as I'm not a big fan of the actual movie)Amadeus(single disc,but a favorite) and the Unforgiven(as good as Eastwood can get,I guess). Lots of those bad $3 multipacks,no 5 disc Bronx(I did find one at another store a few weeks ago,thanks to this forum and contributers pointing out what to look for). In general,though,that $5 price point is to be avoided for common stuff and certainly no blind buys. I have a theory that,though Warner was POed that their landfill stuff found it's way to the marketplace,they have made a deal with BL to get rid of even more stuff(e.eg.-Superman)and,though the price was higher for BL,they are probably getting away with the higher price point and higher margins. If it don't work out,they can lower the price or have a multi sale some dead weekend this summer.

As I (& others) mentioned above, there is a new $3 Warner batch that arrived after the $5 batch. Likely Warner felt the $5 batch was more valuable & BL paid more for it.

I got the Special Edition of Beavis and Butt-head Do America a couple months ago- never seen the older disc there.

Went to the Raynham MA. store today tons of stuff ,lots of the 3 pack and the $5 WB stock.
I didn't buy a thing , it really looks like the sales for this stuff has dribbled to nothing the racks were jammed and I saw a lot of things from like a month ago.
Also buyer beware The Good Shepherd and Field Of Dreams (2 disc), and I was interested in both but passed when i took out my reading glasses only to read the small print FULL Frame!

The $5 stuff seems to depend on the store. Most of it's long sold at the stores here (Tacoma, WA).

Found a few that I don't think were mentioned:
M Butterfly (Cronenberg! The last DVD I needed to complete his feature-filmography)
The Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight (early DeNiro - '71 Brooklyn location)
A couple more from the John Wayne Collection; Trouble Along the Way and The Train Robbers.
