Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
My DT's in Pottstown,Pa. and Boyertown,Pa. didn't have zip even though they said they receive their shipments on Saturdays and put out the DVD's right away.
I wouldn't put it past some managers or employees selling the DVD's under the table like they use to do when there was a beanie baby craze. Even if they make say $.25 per item, it is capitalism plain and simple. And there is always a few titles that the flea market dealers don't want, resulting in 50 copies of "Dog Whisperer" or "Thirty Something".
I happened to be in a store in November/December 2011 when they just put out a large assortment of $1 DVD's resulting in my purchase of 45+ different titles.
When gasoline is near $4.00 per gallon, it doesn't make sense running around to all of the stores, and when I try calling the telephone numbers of the stores, the telephone keeps ringing with no one picking up.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
Out of curiosity, are all of these titles that people are mentioning above full sized or slim DVD case movies found in the "electronics" aisle or a special bin somewhere else?
I was at my DT last week and they had absolutely no full sized DVD case movies on sale... just slims. Since I had issues trading in slims for U&S at BB in the past, I never touch slims.

Oh, what does U&S stand for?

Uprade and save. Promo at Best Buy where you bring in any commercial DVD (not porn) and get $5 off any blu-ray priced $9.99 or higher. Last promo ended a few weeks ago and next one might come up in fall sometime.

Ah, thanks! I thought I saw U&S and BB, was thinking it was another chain store, perhaps just on the west coast. Yeah, I'm kinda stupid.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
All the DTs that I went to almost always have either a dump near the front door or big metal bins near the registers...
Only the cheap slims and excess "Dog Whisperers" are relegated to the 'electronics' aisle...

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
If my DT store has a metal DVD bin, it must be well hidden because I've never seen it. All I see is the little selection of 99% slim case DVDs of stuff I've never heard of before in the electronics aisle.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
Finally found some new DVDs this morning. I picked up:
Kelly Clarkson: Behind Hazel Eyes
Moscow Heat
Hey Vern, It's Ernest!: The Complete Series
Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist
Brian's Song (2002)
Storm Hawks Collector's Set: Heroes of the Sky
Dixie Chicks: Shut Up & Sing (Full Screen Edition)
Notes on a Scandal
Missionary Man
21 Jump Street: The Complete First Season
The Man Who Loved Women
The Road to Guantanamo
The Forgotten/Gattaca (Sci-Fi Double Feature)
I bought Missionary Man the last time Sony titles showed up, but I'm not sure if it's worth trying to exchange it. I may just use it for the next U&S.

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
Haven't found too many dvd titles. Basically some of the one's mentioned in this thread but I did see the Ron Santo story in store but not mentioned here.
Also, they've had some CD's from artists I've actually heard of. Guns & Roses: Chinese Democracy and REO Speedwagon: Find Your Own Way Home

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
Which Envall did you find? Keep in mind, I live in Bakersfield so me actually finding a redneck item at the dollar store is likely impossible!

Re: Dollar Tree DVDs
I found another Dollar Tree with DVDs and picked up:
Missionary Man
The Forgotten/Gattaca
The Man Who Loved Women
My One and Only
Once again there were a ton of the Dog Whisperer DVDs.
Interestingly, the 'My One and Only' DVD had a "only at Target" sticker on the cover. Is that where these are coming from?
I watched Missionary Man tonight and really enjoyed it. From the first batch I picked up - I thought Moscow Heat was an okay time killer and the Kelly Clarkson DVD was a dud.
