It's VERY good Manzana as I can attest to. Good amount of comedy + drama.
Of course you have to be open minded on the main topic of weed. Excellent performances by the entire cast and especially Kevin Nealon (who prior to this series I only marginally liked).

I give this series a big :thumbsup::thumbsup:

I own all the seasons and eagerly look forward to each new season on DVD.

Wallmart:

Saw the above mentioned tv titles on a special display at Sam's Club for $18.88 plus The Sopranos, John Adams, Deadwood, and Rome. So there is a possibility that these titles will be in the $10 bins at Walmart on Black Friday.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

Maybe, but I doubt I'll find a new release for less than that even if they're going to throw it back in the vault. I'd love to pay just $3.96 for it like I did for the other 7 at Walmart the other day but I doubt that'll happen anytime soon, unless you know something I don't. -kd5-

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

I'm sorry but I'm new at this. When the Black Friday Sales start, do I have to go to the stores to get the sale, or can I go to their websites and buy them online without spending hours on line in front of the store?

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

Some of each.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

Depends MooMooMooMoo. This year Wal-Mart will start BF at 10pm, Thursday. If you arrive around nine, the line to get inside isn't too bad. Look about and find the areas of your target. The DVDs are held inside cardboard racks and sealed plastic; won't be open until ten. Get done quick, leave quick. It will be busy, but for the most part NOT as bad as later. Later will be a massive, massive mess.

This year will be my fourth outing.

I'm still waiting on info for Big Lots.

My game plan is going around 9pm to Wal-Mart, leave about 11 or so, go to bed. Wake up about four and go to Big Lots. The line there is usually big. The store is next door to a Target, so I'll give them a look.

After both stores I'm heading off to Best Buy then back to Wal-Mart. They're going to have more DVDs on sale at 8AM.

My BF will be a hectic. I for one love it. It's exciting. Two years ago I was in Upland and the police showed up. Nothing happened at the Wal-Mart I was at. But a nearby store (another Wal-Mart) had a full riot. They closed down the store. They were afraid pissed off customers from there would come here. Every few minutes on the loud speaker they would say, 'please stay calm'.

Good times.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

I have stuff I'm gonna pick up at Target & Best Buy and I will check Wal-Mart(and T & BB) for there "more in-store".

Upset that the Chuck Season 4 Blu-Ray,and Middle Season 2 arent on sale as neither of them have had any kind of price drop. $40 for Chuck and $35 for Middle are just to damn much. Also wish that the Clone Wars Season 3 Blu-Ray was on sale like the 1st 2 seasons were the last 2 years.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

Something that needs to be said for newbies.

Wear sensible shoes.

You're going to do a lot of walking and or standing.

Comfortable shoes; good for Black Fridays and the zombie apocalypse.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

Worth noting that Target has promised that their Price Match policy this year will include Black Friday (with an original printed ad). Not sure if the employees will be clear on that, but it sounds promising:

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

I'll get what I get online and that's it. No way I'm getting in the middle of that madness. Best Buy has also been getting better about putting their BF stuff online.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

I went abotu 12:30 last year (which would correspond to 10:30 this year). Traffic wasn't that heavy, and most people were congregated around the two or three big sale items (this year they've got a 55 inch Samsung plasma TV for just under $500). I didn't have any problem getting my share of the promotional DVDs. Keep in mind that they will be in displays in different parts of the store, not necessarily in the DVD section. Also keep in mind that just because a DVD is in the rack doesn't mean it's on sale (especially if it's the only one of that title you see there). People have been known to pick things up in one place and put them down in another. They promotional DVDs will usually be clearly labeled.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

be aware tho. If the ad states "doorbuster" or "limited quantities" or any other verbiage like those, they may not price match it for you.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

This year will be my first time going to Best Buy on Black Friday... Followed by Wal-Mart.
After seeing how unorganized the local Target was last year, I'm just going to skip them this year.

Like someone else on here, I'm waiting to see what Big Lots will have this year.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

I hope these stores have product when the normal Black Friday crowd shops in the morning. I hate that these stores are opening at midnight, +/- an hour or 2, the night before, and all these crazy people are going to be thrashing about the stores in the wee hours of the morning when us normal people are sleeping peacefully waiting for our Black Friday morning at the stores, only to find everything's already gone. I predict there are going to be alot of pissed off people come Black Friday during normal business hours, and I may very well be one of them. But neither my wife nor I want to subject ourselves to that insanity the night before. -kd5-

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

If you're looking for a doorbuster deal, what difference does it make waiting in line from 9pm - 12 am vs. 2am - 5am which people were doing last year (hell, even earlier for some). If you're just looking for DVDs & Blu-rays, I remember in the past couple years I've seen plenty left at noontime. This year could be different, however. As the store ads clearly state, everything has a limited quantity. :) :)

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

That seems like good advice, thanks. I stopped by WM today and picked up their print ad (it wasn't out but they pulled one for me out of a box). It does mention "limited quantities". Nothing else that should cause a problem, but I'll stop by a couple of Targets tomorrow and ask Cust Service. If they say okay then that's great, and I'll ask them to sign the ad or a note to prevent any problems on BF. If not, then at least I'll know.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

I don't wait in line at any ungodly hour waiting for some Black Friday deal. If they don't have what I'm looking for by the time I get there, I'll be pissed but I'll get over it. -kd5-

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

I can't yet post what I've heard about BL, but it's not very exciting.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
My friends that work in various levels of the company didn't swear me to secrecy:)

Big Lots $1.88 dvd's and some of the other stuff they are doing
this year, is sorta lackluster compared to what they did last year.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

They did it last year with Casino Royale (2-Disc Full Screen Edition)

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

Big Lots

BF begins on Friday at 6am.

"Shoppers spending $50 or more on Thursday, November 24 – Saturday, November 26 will receive a $10 coupon to be used for their next purchase at a Big Lots store."

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

2 years ago, i got to BB at 11pm (doors opened at 6) and the line was already half way around the building. I'm curious if people will be camped for 6 or 7 hours like usual or if the lines won't start til later (around 10) due to everyone being at home for thanksgiving dinner

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

I was there for Circuit City's final BF around 4am. The big item people wanted was a laptop. As we got close to opening they gave out tickets for the computer. Even before the doors opened, it sold out. I was in front of one of those folks, pissed.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

Re BL, Based on the information I have I wouldn't assume there will be huge lines. Since the $1.88 dvd's have already been posted by someone else, here's what little else I THINK I know:

1. I have been told the $1.88 dvd's are pretty much the same titles we've seen the last 2 months

2. The $5 xmas & $6 2 disc sets are likely also going to be tied into BF at those prices.

I.E., nothing like 2 years ago where we got the $2 box set bonanza.

Re: Black Friday 2011 - The DVD thread
 

Looks like both the Big Lots $3 and $5 titles are $1.88. They have current $5 titles pictured in the ad. Although the ad does state "priced as marked." So I wonder if there is a batch with the $1.88 price tags. Also in the ad are the Paramount and WB double features for $4.88. X-mas dvds for 4.00.
