Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

At the Brice Road BL in Columbus, Ohio, I found 2 MGM Midnight Movies discs...before the advent of the double feature format.
Found "Planet of the Vampires" and the Burt Lancaster version of "The Island of Dr. Moreau" at $3 each.

Only one copy of each.

Also picked up the 3-disc collectors edition of "Hot Fuzz" for $3.

Not very often anymore. I did have a look just now and could probably find a few of your disks, but I'm not looking for TV sets. PM me if you want to talk.

Anybody know if the 'light purple tag sale' is still going on?
I went earlier this week, only saw the Informant with a $5 light purple tag. I also saw a $3 Informant, so the light purple wouldn't be better on that one.
Gotta love BL and their inconsistent pricing!

Picked up Starship Troopers 3: Marauder for $3 but based on reviews here and at Amazon I may return it and spend my money on something that's actually worth buying. Granted, it's only $3 but money is tight enough I don't want to waste it on shit. -kd5-

I found a lone copy of "Wacky Races" for $10 and thought it might have been a return. Could this be the x-mas DVD sets special?

$10 ain't all that special these days.

Hell, I'm surprised they're even carrying newer shows now at Big Lots versus the dry spell that has been going on for quite some time. Better than nothing.

Also saw some $7 Blu-rays.

Yaaawwnnn!. I guess with BB U&S, these are pretty lukewarm. Maybe something good will turn up.

My purchases at Big Lots at waaaayyyyyy down from previous years. I guess rehashed titles, higher pricing and crappy selection is going to be the downfall of BL for the movie buyer.


I am confident that the deals are not over, but nowhere are they what they were even last year, much less in the golden year of 2009.

The Duchess
The Soloist
The Machinist
Spider Man 3
Donnie Brasco
Last Holiday
Lara Croft Tomb Raider

$7 - $7.99 just seems like too much for a lot of these titles. I've been waiting on League of Extraordinary Gentlemen to go down at Target for example and that Sky Captain is in the same boat for me. I'd love it for $5 but somehow $7 is just too much.

Actually there are 2 versions with that cover.. 1 w/ and 1 w/o... There was also a verison with just the movie that was given away for Playstation..

Only reason I know is that I was looking to snag one recently to replace the Trilogy set version cause I was replacing the Trilogy set withe #1 & #2 re-releases.. and that is where I discovered the dual identity of that cover and possibly the sku..

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

I saw the blu-rays today. The only one I was sort of interested in was the Tomb Raider/Aeon Flux 2 pack, however, someone decided they only wanted Tomb Raider because all I found was Aeon Flux and the wrapper that they were packaged in.

Also, while I was standing there looking at the top row of the wire rack, this woman suddenly reaches in front of me to grab a DVD on the bottom row. As I realize that it's Forever Knight season 1, I'm thinking "crap, please be another one" and probably calling the woman a few choice words in my head. I didn't find another copy, but thankfully, she put it back. Then at the check out I found out that using my BuzzClub card would get me 10% off. It made me consider going back to get the Last Airbender, but I'm not that interested in it.

Re: Big Lots Part 10 - List your FINDS here (NO trades)

The 955 West Sepulveda Boulevard store in Torrance had 1 copy of Jeremiah (really good show imo), The Black Donnellys and 2 of the Walton's S1. Also multiples of Quantum of Solace with Exclusive 2009 calendar.

They were also constructing their $1.88 Black Friday display. They told me to come back later when it was set-up, but I didn't want to stick around and saw most of what was there anyway. It's a 260 piece count display, all of which seemed to be the same old crap (or older crap that we haven't seen in awhile). Multiple copies of everything and here's most of it:

A few kids titles
Hollow Man 2
Broke Back Mtn. (not the deluxe version)
Charlie Wilson's War
On a Clear Day
Ace Ventura Jr.
Before The Devil Knows You're Dead
First Decent
Grudge
Ringers
Hamlet 2
Prom Night
Rush Hour 3
Planet in Peril
Talk to Me
Lions for Lambs
Bruno
Stuck
Magnificent
Ez Streets
In the Electric Mist
Undead or Alive
Urban Legends: Final Cut
Numb
Breakfast on Pluto

Hopefully other displays will be better.
