A good example: It's Always Sunny in Philly S5 was going for $9.99 at Target on the 26th.

http://www.amazon.com/Its-Always-Sun...3248271&sr=8-3

Already that price at Amazon.

...I'll never understand why people find it "fitting" or "meaningful" to reply like this to someone who obviously has intentions to help a fellow save a few bucks. Why even have these forums if its such a big deal to accidentally re post, when the original post for this just had three items in the thread title? How bout just be glad there's people out there looking to help us save money, re post or not?

This thread is of no use to anyone, not a single title, link or price was posted. I was simply trying to point other people to a thread that will actually help them in some way.

If it's any consolation, Yellow, I think person questioning the snotty replies to this thread was referring to the first response post. Your post was definitely a clarifying helpful addendum to this OP.

But, for the record, this thread was of use to me. As soon as I saw it, I went to the Target post, saw the price for The Other Guys, then went to Amazon and ordered it.

Re: Amazon already Price Matching after christmas adds

This thread actually reminded me of the sale BestBuy is going to have tomorrow on Supernatural, Season 5 for $14.99, went to Amazon and sure enough, Amazon has it for the same price now (less tax). Only bad thing is Amazon's $25 minimum for free shipping which is a bitch when there isn't anything else you really want right now...


This thread wasn't a waste afterall... -kd5-

I saw this thread, last night, and surfed right on over to Amazon and grabbed True Blood Season 2 for my mom. $14.99 is an amazing price. Thanks, OP and to the other posters who posted the scans for Best Buy and Target.

It's pretty easy to get free Prime these days. Check out the thread in the Hot Deals section...

Yes will you please post all of the unadvertised tv shows that are on sale at Target? Would love this info to see if it's worth going in tomorrow

After reading about so many people having problems with Amazon using questionable shipping methods to send out Prime orders, I think I'll give Amazon Prime a pass, but thanks for that anyway...

Too bad the BD versions never go on sale for under $20. I picked up S13 last week for $16.99 + tax at Target, and even then I was borderline on it because Amazon and Costco have a history of putting Simpsons sets for $9.99 or $12.99 after my return period has expired. However, I don't think they did it this year (except for S20 at Amazon), so maybe that trend is over (as great DVD and BD deals seem to be less frequent).

Got:

1. True Blood s.2 @14.99
2. The Office s.6 @14.99


All that struck my interest. Very good bargains though. Needed both of these.
