Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

WOW.....The Fugitive, The Odd Couple, and Hawaii Five-O !!!!
Went to W Bridgewater MA. store ..Nothin New .....I think some resellers must of hit it up cause all the box sets were gone ,Busby Musicals and the crime one with the Pledge....all gone and there were quite a few of these a week ago!

That's all I can think of because they still have a healthy dose of the Paramounts and $5 titles.
It doesn't strike me as the location for fans of musicals?

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Which season or seasons of the odd couple did they have I can't wait to find I was always looking for a good price for those

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

90210 was season 3 in a local BL here(Lehigh Valley,Pa.).I bought this as a gag gift for my now grown daughter. I wonderful memory was a weekend back in the day when I had her visiting and she was trying to explain all bout her favorite show,90210. Now all grown up,she can afford the complete set,if she wanted,along with just about anything her heart desires.
BTW,90210 is one of those shows with different music on the DVD than the original show. Also,disclaimer that editing may have occurred since original airing. One would think with the DVD format and the fact that you are paying for it,attempts would be made to sell these sets with restored, not edited, footage.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

CSI, CSI: Miami, and CSI: New York box sets at Big Lots for $6 each? Not to mention all of those others. I'll have to hit a few Big Lots this weekend during the 5/$10 sale.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

I saw season 3 of it. By the way, it is important to note that out of four stores that I visited in my area, only one had these titles. They were all in a separate display away that actually said "$6 TV Box Sets" on it or something like that. My guess is that other stores haven't got them out yet.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

:doh: Was just passing through Louisville earlier today after reading the post about these additional sets. Stopped in a store or two hoping I might spot them, but obviously didn't choose correctly. Care to post/PM which store you found 'em at, skees53?

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

New Cut Road was the one where I found them. The ones that I went to where I did NOT see them were Shelbyville Road, Breckenridge Lane, and Preston Highway.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Oh man! I was just a couple of miles from there earlier in the evening after stopping at one on Dixie Highway. And I actually considered jumping over to New Cut, but figured I'd be out of luck there. Hopefully I'll head back in that direction soon or stumble upon them elsewhere. Otherwise, I'll be kicking myself for a good while to come! :)

Thanks for the quick response!

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Have you checked any of the Indiana ones? I was thinking about checking Clarksville, Jeffersonville, and New Albany over the weekend.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Not yet. And I don't think I could until next week at the earliest. Let me know if you spot anything really interesting. :D

A question for anyone who knows. I think I'm one purchase away from a 20% Buzz Club discount. Can my 10th and qualifying purchase be made and then my discount taken on a purchase the very same day? I know 2 qualifying purchases have to be made on different days, wasn't sure about the discount. If I stumble upon these box sets, I'd give thought to earning my discount and redeemeding it during the same visit.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Went down to one of the local Big Lots and saw the following $6 box sets (some of which were previously mentioned):

Brady Bunch (Season 2)
Cheers (Season 3)
CSI (Season 2)
CSI: Miami (Season 1)
Hawaii Five-O (Season 3)
J*A*G (Season 5)
Matlock (Season 2)
Melrose Place (Season 5)
Mork & Mindy (Season 2)
Odd Couple (Season 2)
Police Squad (Complete Series)
Sabrina (Season 4)
Seventh Heaven (Season 5)
Seventh Heaven (Season 6)
Twin Peaks (Season 2)

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

You can make your 10th purchase and then take the 20% discount later on the same day. I did that once.

I'm not sure how long exactly it takes for the 20% discount option to be added to one's account. If I remember correctly, on the day I made my 10th purchase I went home less than an hour later and checked my Big Lots account online and saw that the purchase was credited to me I had the 20% reward available. So I went back to Big Lots later that day and used it.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Wow! Even more great box sets added. Perkinsun Dzees posted some very interesting finds.

Big Lots box sets for $6. This new trend is even better than the $3 DVDs IMO. Brady Bunch, J*A*G, Mork & Mindy .. on and on the list grows. Forget Black Friday! I better save up to hit Big Lots.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Fingers crossed for JAG season 5. Bought my dad the first four seasons as two-packs at Target...this would be a nice surprise for him since aside from a very, very brief appearance at Walmart a few months back that I missed, the later seasons haven't been discounted much.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

A new BL is opening up in my town today. I hope that they have some of the great deals you've been posting about.

I really hope they have some of those $6 seasons in stock. I'm most interested in Mork & Mindy: 2, Police Squad and Sabrina: 4.

Was Melrose Place Season 5 both parts or were they seperated? I'm looking for several of the ones you guys are posting but more than likely mine won't have them> I'd love to find Brady Bunch, Hawaii Five-O, Matlock, Odd Couple, Sabrina, Love Boat.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

no TV sets, but the $3 DVDs rang up 5/$10. Supposedly today only.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

No $6 TV sets here.

Saw the following $3 dvds ( 5 for $10):

St. Trinian's School for Bad Girls
Edmond
The Constant Gardener WS
Peaceful Warrior WS
The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio
A Perfect World (snapper case)
Safe Men
Love Guru (they had many, many copies of this gem)

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Try Shelbyville Road. I went yesterday and they had none, today they had more than any other store in the city. Bardstown Road (out in Fern Creek) had a few too, but I bought almost everything they had (mostly a lot of Melrose Place, Cheers, CSI, and Bosom Buddies). I haven't seen Friday the 13th at any of them though.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

thanks for the info! will hit the shelbyville rd one!
I will double check all 3 over here this weekend then to see if they put them out and hopefully find the friday the 13th. def will pickup melrose and csi though too.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Neither of the 2 closest stores to me got anything new for this coming week.
Would have been nice with the sale.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Checked 3 stores (Colonie, Amsterdam, Utica NY) stores over the last couple days, they all have pretty much the same stuff(nothing different than what's been posted). Saw a couple box sets mixed in with the $5/$6 DVDs at the Utica, NY store though.

Didn't find House Arrest at any of them, then went on line and noticed there are more than one of the same title...for those of you who found it, was it the one with Jamie Lee Curtis?

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Yes ,I saw this a few weeks back with Jamie Lee Curtis.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

This should be today thru the 14th from the e-mail ad I received and posted about before. And you confirmed my thoughts--it's not a public sale from ads, but rather a Buzz Club promotion and it would just ring up this way. I was actually at a store this morning looking for the $6 sets and thought I'd bring 5 DVDs up to the register to see if they'd ring up this way. I literally walked out empty handed when I had a horrible time trying to come up with 5 titles I wanted.

What made matters worse was this store's display was a mixed collection of $5 titles, $6 two-packs and now $9 three-packs and such. It was very difficult to just browse the $3 selections, even more so to find something of interest that I didn't already have.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Horse Racing Fans!!!!!

I was in a BL today and something caught my eye... an ESPN three pack for 3.00, on one side was And 1 Mixtape X, the other was Sportscenter Year in Review 2006. In the middle was Ruffian. I almost bought this when it came out at walmart but it was 14.99 and that was lower than on-line stores. I remember checking like over a year ago and no online store had it listed so I figureded it was OOP which I guess it is. The extras look really good.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

I confirmed the same thing with the manager at mine today. We tried 5 $3 titles and it wouldn't work. I'm curious if anyone knows if the people who were targeted for this limited promotion were big spenders or small spenders?

Yes, I hate the way everything is mixed together too. I've mentioned it a few times at the store, but I doubt they'll ever do anything about it. I noticed more titles I've seen at $3 now marked at $5. I assume they don't resticker them so newer batches get higher prices. I'm just too cheap to buy anything over $3, so if they creep all the $3 titles up to $5 then I'll buy about as many $5 DVDs from Big Lots as I do $5 DVDs from Walmart (i.e. very few).

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

My store had that same list as above except they also had:
Cheers (Season 9)
Hawaii Five-O (Season 6)
Hawaii Five-O (Season 7)
Joan of Arcadia (Season 1)
Magyver (Season 4)
Mission Impossible (Season 5)

And they did not have Hawaii Five-O Season 3, Happy Days S4, Love Boat, or 90210. The Perry Mason I saw didn't look like a series but some movie.

What a WEIRD selection of titles. I bought many of them even though I haven't watched HFO or MI for decades, nor have I ever seen CSI, Joan of Arcadia, Sabrina or 7th Heaven. Besides the ones I already had, I skipped JAG, Matlock, and Magyver (every time I hear Matlock I think of Abe Simpson and every time I hear Magyver I think of Patty & Selma). The reason I bought so many: my buy first, decide later policy. The receipt says I have until Jan. 15th to decide, so I'll wait until I get some time in December to read reviews first. It would probably be tough for me to jump into Sabrina or 7th Heaven, for instance, without having seen the prior seasons. The cynic in me says that Knowing Jan. 15th is the return deadline, I think it's a safe bet we won't be seeing any more 20% off days until at least Jan. 16th. How I'd love to get 20% off on these.

Has anybody found any of the other seasons? In other words, is each store getting basically the same weird selection or are stores getting different seasons? So far it looks mostly the same.

Melrose Place S5 was just Vol. 1 (separated) at my store, so I didn't touch it.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Here is everything that I found today. Most of these were at one location (Louisville, Shelbyville Road):

Melrose Place (S1, S2, S3, S4 S5V1, S5V2)
CSI (S2, S3, S7)
CSI Miami (S2)
CSI NY (S2, S3, S4)
Bosom Buddies (S1)
The Fugitive (S1V1, S2V1)
The Love Boat (S1V2)
Hawaii Five-O (S1, S7)
The Daily Show: Indecision 2004
The Beverly Hillbillies (S2)
Cheers (S3, S9)
Beverly Hills, 90210 (S4)
90210 (The CW one) (S1)
Rawhide (don't remember which one)
Family Ties (S1, S2, S4)
Laverne & Shirley (S2)
Gomer Pyle (S4)
Perry Mason (S3V1, 50th Anniversary, and perhaps others... didn't really look at them too much because I have them already)
7th Heaven (S3)
Sabrina, the Teenage Witch (S2, S3)

And there were more... those are just the ones that I can remember off top of my head.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

I am not sure. I am an in between spender to be honest. I assumed everyone in the buzz club got the email.
I received the email from them it was a black friday buzz club special that ran 12-14. there were 9-10 thing listed besides the movies and it stated they were no clip coupons just had to scan the reward card.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

i cant get over there until tomorrow or sunday so hope some are still left! or hope the southern indiana ones gets them in.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

I can't wait untill California gets these box sets. it's almost as good as summer of 09

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Keep in mind that if you use the 20% on a day in which you've not made a qualifying purchase the 20% off purchase counts as a qualifying purchase as long as the final total is $20+.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Wow! There are some really good titles in those lists of TV sets! I went by the one and only store within 70 miles here only to come up empty handed... but I alerted the checkers and stockers to be on the lookout for me! :)

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

MELROSE PLACE Season 5 was released in two separate sets (Vol 1 and Vol 2) not as one unit so they are not going to be bundled together for a Big Lots overstock sale that's for sure. I would gladly pay $6 for half a season of this - I've never seen it anywhere for under $20 even in past Black Friday / Christmas /25 percent off sales. I only have the first three seasons but nothing after that has ever been substantially discounted anywhere before from what I've seen.

I went to my local Big Lots and they FINALLY got several of the Paramount titles - SORRY WRONG NUMBER, LIPSTICK, BAD COMPANY, FANCY PANTS, A NEW KIND OF LOVING, etc. for $3. I only bought SWN; I bought FP and BC years ago.

Re: Big Lots Part 8 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)
 

Well, thanks to skees53's list which shows a bunch of other good titles, it now appears that stores are getting different batches (reminiscent of those Warner $3 and $6 box set sales long ago), so I'm going to try to swing by the other 4 Big Lots in my normal travel paths in the next few days. I don't have time to drive around town to all of them on the same day, so I'll probably go to 1 each day as I'm doing other errands. There's nothing worse (to me) than making a special trip somewhere and coming back empty-handed.
