Wow! I have the complete box on blu, but for $1.00 that's pretty amazing!

Came across a huge stash of new DVD/BD boxes on an end cap. I'd say it was 85% DVD or more. It's rumored a media end cap with several shelves will become a permanent fixture at some locations.

This one location had a new mix of anime, horror and sci-fi titles. Most discs from indie labels though a few bigger labels were sprinkled into the selections. For my tastes, a better wave than what we got over Christmas and January.

Most of the VUDU digital codes still work, no matter how old. I picked up Journey Into The West, a Stephen Chow flick, on DVD and the included code redeemed in SD quality on VUDU.

Stopped by another random store today and discovered a peculiar find. The complete series of Lexx - It's the Echo Bridge version in a slim case (found here: Lexx: The Complete Series (DVD) - Walmart.com). I expect the quality to be subpar. Despite that and having never seen the show, I couldn't pass up that much content for $1.25.

There were many Echo Bridge discs in the newest wave. Walmart went hard carrying Echo Bridge DVDs and especially BDs in 2020 and 2021. I don't think they sold well at all, which means tons of leftover stock for Dollar Tree to scoop up.

I am so badly trying to stay away from dt till need go anytime later cause know gonna be tempted to try get any media when need funds for needs more then wants lol. got so many i seen and not seen but getting more just adds to all i gotta pack later lol. gotta move later so really trying limit what i get to have less to pack anytime.

I live in a high Crime area. It is drastically escalating. It is currently not safe to go to DT or Big Lots (across the street from each other). This is getting ridiculous. And i thought Covid was bad enough.

How is this? I saw several copies at the store I popped into this AM, but didn't pick it up. I did end up with 3 movies for the first time in forever, though :

"Mother" ( Bong Joon Ho movie )
"Voodoo Apocalypse" ( looked like a good time - worth a buck & a quarter for the title alone )
"Visioneers" ( Zach Galifianakis movie )

PhantomStranger

No idea, lol. I haven't watched more than 10% of the movies I get from Dollar Tree. They all end up in my perpetual backlog which extends back to the 2000s decade. I did chew through some when the whole Western world got shut down for Covid. Those lock-downs really did help me tackle more of my collection.

DiggityDawg

Ha ha...I figured there was a good chance the answer would be something like this, but I took a shot anyway. I'll probably just grab the movie if I see it next time I'm in there.

About a year ago, I found several really good blind buys at DT (much of which were PBS series I'd never heard of). It's been slim pickings as far as quality goes since, but between Covid & Crime in the area, I don't go in as much as I used to.

Since my last post here, I’ve picked up:

Satanic Panic
The Nightshifter
Don Jon
Coven
Toxic Crusaders Vol 1 (So surprised to find a Troma disc there!)
Zelig
Night/Living Dead-19 Movie Set (Mostly bought it for Lady Frankenstein)
Shirley Temple Family Collection Vol 1
Super Pack Madness (Little Red Devil, They Must Eat, Evil Offspring, Biker Zombies From Detroit, Lurking Terror)

I already had all the Woody Allen DVD's. I bought 1 of each a couple months ago anyway, just in case I was missing any, but I wasn't. They are reissues with new packaging.

DiggityDawg

Not much new at my local Tree, but they did get in some of those Shudder movies. I was able to snag "One Cut Of The Dead", which I'd been on the lookout for.

Forgot the last time i went and got any but remember i only got 4 or 5 one time compared to getting a bag or more full anytime. times have changed and dont watch alot so have plenty to see anytime.

PhantomStranger

I have spotted some interesting-looking horror movies in recent waves. Newer ones from SHUDDER and the like.

DiggityDawg

I popped in on a Chex Mix run this morning ( no luck - feh ) & ended up picking up 3 DVD's :

"The Partridge Family" Season 2 ( for my wife )
"The Larry Sanders Show" Seasons 1 & 2
"Mr. Show" Season 4

I already own the last 2, but grabbed 'em anyway to give to friends.

Seens some stuff out this week. Picked up season 5 of Royal Pains (previously I had bought season 7). Still haven't seen an episode yet, hopefully it's worth a look.

Dollar One-Twenty-Five Tree just doesn't have the same ring to it.

I got an Audrey Hepburn Mill Creek bio pic at DT a few months ago. Watched it 2 nights ago, & discovered it's oop & sells for high prices. Wish I would have bought more than 1!

PhantomStranger

Two Dollar Tree is coming sooner rather than later.

The DVD Bargains forum is looking pretty barren these days. I kind of wish the mods would merge it with the Blu-ray Bargains.

MooMooMooMoo

Agreed.

PhantomStranger

Once the weekly ads stopped being posted, there were fewer reasons to visit here.

Do you mean "once all the physical retailers either went under or got rid of 90% of their stock......"

I think all we've got left here (South of Seattle) is a little in Best Buy, a little in Target, less in B&N & Wallymart.

Since dt changed prics for any reason now they get mixed media now like cds and dvd and blu rays anytime. i checkd for a cd i saw before but of course it sold to collector , fan, or seller anytime. since gotta move later whatever i got may be the last media i get since got so much to pack and move i need space and funds to move later.
