According to someone who's actually seen the packaging
(see post 22 of this thread: http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showthread.php?t=494210 )
looks like this just comes with a book, no bonus DVD.
Has anyone else seen the packaging yet?

I saw the DVD released early at my local Sears store on Saturday!
It was 4 days early....wanted to buy it but the $22.99 price tag held me off.....i think im gonna price match at BestBuy with the CC ad and get me the Free car....or just buy at CC.....the free coin looks decent.

I think the way Target words their ads in this respect can be sorta misleading.
You could look at their "Departed" ad and interpret it as saying it had "exclusive content" that was only available in their store whereas in reality the "exclusive content" they talked about was in relation to the cheaper 1-disc set.
Based on the fact that people in that other thread have claimed to have seen the packaging I'm gonna have to assume that what the Target ad meant to say is "this edition with the book also comes with the 2-disc version".

The people on this board are weird.
Everyone bitches and moans about the lack of a simple chapter-listing instert, and with the Target set we get one of the best "inserts" ever (and still below msrp of just the dvd alone and only $5 more than CC), and people are still pissed - there's no pleasing some of you.

I bought the Best Buy exclusive for $19.99 Canadian. 
For the most part, the Best Buy exclusives are the same for US and Canada. There are some exceptions for example, Canada never got the Tin Case for the boxset of the King Kong Collection.

The $13.99 was a mistake.

It might have been a mistake at first but people are starting to report that they are getting the $13.99 price at CC.

They had signs printed at my CC that said $13.99. No mistake. I was given the coin automatically at the counter. Haven't opened it to take a gander yet...don't really care to, either.
