The dvd of Twelve Angry Men I got a Big Lots a few years ago came with a DVD of hits from the 1950s. They weren't songs from the movie, it was just an extra.

Re: Store bought DVD's that came with CD's?
The same CD was with all of those I Love the 80s releases, I have 2 of them. There was also an MGM Soul Cinema sampler CD that came with some of those titles.
The Wash came with the soundtrack CD- pretty decent value there even before the price on it dropped.
Blair Witch 2 had the CD soundtrack on the other side of the DVD, something I wish they did more.
King Crimson Deja Vroom had a sampler CD included.
Negativland's "Our Favorite Things" DVD came with a CD of doo-wop covers of some of their songs- a joke those unfamiliar with them would NEVER get.
The First Nudie Musical had a soundtrack CD with the first pressing.
The first DVD I ever bought, a computer animation compilation called "Luminous Visions", came with an accompanying CD of Tangerine Dream music that was longer than the DVD.
The first season of The Partridge Family (from Sony) included a short CD sampler, redundant if you already have their Greatest Hits CD.
Tape Heads came with a one-song CD of "Ordinary Man" by the movie's fictional soul band Swanky Modes.
Shrek came with a Christmas CD exclusively at Wal-Mart.
Almost Famous had a CD sampler with the original songs from the movie exclusively at Circuit City.
There was a trend of CD albums coming with bonus DVDs for a while too, I bought the Dave Matthews Busted Stuff album just because of that since the DVD was limited. The DVD of Metallica performing the "St. Anger" album is more entertaining than the album itself it comes with.
I re-bought Negativland's "Big 10-8 Place" just to get the DVD of their "No Other Possibility" videotape, likewise with Thomas Dolby's "Golden Age of Wireless" (2nd CD I ever bought) to get the DVD of his "Live Wireless" concert.

Just bought Dead Matter on DVD at a Halloween store and it came with 2 CDs. The soundtrack and another of Halloween themed music.
Also my old deluxe edition of Blue Sunshine came with the soundtrack CD as did my deluxe edition of Attack of the Killer Tomatoes

Re: Store bought DVD's that came with CD's?
The Attack of the Killer Tomatoes CD was a Best Buy exclusive (back when they carried cool stuff like that), I didn't know about that til after I bought the DVD elsewhere but I heard it was just songs taken directly from the movie's original audio, not clean studio versions. One comment I read said "Those hoping for a complete version of "Puberty Love" will keep on hoping." And that IS something I still hope for!
