I walked into Target at approximately 3:20 PM, and grabbed my copy (there were 100s of both Wide and Full versions there, got Wide of course). My brother grabbed a copy of the Resident Evil DVD that was released a couple weeks back. We walked to the front of the store, checked out, and were out the door in nearly 6 minutes.

I was on a trip in LA, so I called my wife in Washington and asked her to go to Costco and pickup the widescreen version of SW.
She could not find the words "Widesceen" on the box, being that show likes gold better than silver, she brought home the Full Screen version.
Had to go back that night and pick up the Silver Box.

Doorbell rang on Thursday. The UPS guy had managed to find my mountain hideout and handed me the box from Amazon (ordered last March 30). No big deal really, the UPS guy wasn't dressed up as a Stormtrooper or anything. 
Had to wait until dark to watch it since my HDTV screen can't be seen in daylight.

Bought it at Target. Nothing too exciting.
He was doing his job.

Ordered from Amazon with STL, free shipping, and the extra little bonus diso**** from getting it with THX 1138.
Got it today, a week after the street date (couldn't care less), for an out the door price of $36.29.
No complaints or big sob stories here. Just another purchase like any other.

In his defense, your post didn't really come off as 100% sarcastic. You could have meant it and we wouldn't have known the difference. The only thing that clued many of us that you were being sarcastic,....was basically you telling us so. 
...but moving on.

But yeh, my reading level has dropped significantly since the acquisition of the big man.
