And if the PM difference was greater than $6.67, it didnt take any additional off.

You can't stack the two anymore. Earlier this week you could. You could change the prices to anything, and when "Totaled Out" the $20 off would prompt. Now even if you change the prices, after being totaled, it will simply bring the price of all three to $20 off the original (bb) price.
They seemed to have changed this in our system at noon yesterday, as well as the BOGOF $9.99 titles. BTW, the reason I know this is because I am a CSR at a Best Buy here in Orlando. Last night I worked and I played around with it for a bit. |

Can I use the Nine Inch Nails HD-DVD as one of the 3 movie $20 off deal at best buy? I think it's only $16.99 this week. It doesn't seem to work for me online.

Two inexpensive HD-DVD titles...
www.mjentertainment.net has two HD-DVDs for cheap. They usually have limited stock, so hurry. Neither are my cup of tea, but I'm sure some will like...
Dukes of Hazzard $13.49 Barry Manilow $13.99 |
So here's my Best Buy $10 off two HD-DVDs story:
A couple of weeks ago, when "The Departed" came out and the HD-DVD was on sale, it sold out quickly and I had to get a rain check for the $22.99 sale price. Also, "Superman Returns" -- although marked at $34.99 in store -- is on the BB website for $29.99. So I put the two discs together, asked the nice lady at the counter to pricematch the web price for Supes, and, after tax, managed to come away with both for $45 and some change! Hot crackers! |
I got a free ticket for 300 for each of the 3 titles I bought. I did this twice, so I've got 6 tickets for the movie. Hope it's good :P

The following Blu-ray titles are 50% off at amazon:
50 First Dates A Knight's Tale Alien vs. Predator Behind Enemy Lines Black Hawk Down Bubble District B13 Enron - The Smartest Guys in the Room Entrapment Fantastic Four HDNet World Report - Shuttle Discovery's Historic Mission Hitch House of Flying Daggers Into the Blue Kiss of the Dragon Kung Fu Hustle Memento One Last Thing... Planet of the Apes Resident Evil Apocalypse S.W.A.T. Speed Stealth Tears of the Sun The Big Hit The Fifth Element The Marine The Sentinel The War Within The World's Fastest Indian Transporter Transporter 2 XXX |
Niiice! Gonna grab a few of these.
What's even better is that I received a free 3 month offer for Prime last night and almost bought a few movies, but held off. So everyone check their accounts as the free Prime offers seem to be coming around again. Thanks |
Couple of things to add to the deal:
If you have the 10% off HD deal on your Amazon account, it also works on these sale prices. If the title also comes in HD DVD, the sale price is on those too. |
More to add:
Buy the Marine and the Sentinnel and save an additional $3 - 32.XX for the pair with 10% discount. I also snagged District B13. I would grab more of the FOX titles, but since they have next to no special features I am kind of put off still, even at 19.99. They will be on sale more int he future and I will eventually get some more like Speed, Transporter and Broken Arrow. |
Great sale. I picked up 5 of those expensive Fox titles.

Unfortunately not much in there I wanted to buy. Lots of bad movies, good movies with bad transfers or stuff I already have. It is really too bad that so many early BD movies were flawed.
I did grab District B13 and Ice Age. Thought about Xmen, but really can't stand Ratner. |
Picked up Speed. It has been in my cart for a while, but couldn't pull the trigger before at $28.
|
Damn, I bought The World's Fastest Indian last week. I sent amazon CS an email to try to get the discount applied retroactively. |
One of my titles purchased was Broken Arrow. Yeah, a cheesy, dumb action movie, but I had to get it as it doesn't appear to be getting a 16x9 dvd transfer anytime soon. For $17, not a bad deal on it either. I know I'll be going back and making another order. I wonder if this is Fox testing new pricing. When a place like Amazon runs a sale of specific studio titles, do they have to get permission from the studio to have the deal?

Any idea how recently you have to have purchased the title in order to retroactively receive the discount? I bought District B13 a couple weeks ago and paid 5 bucks more. |

Dang, the few titles I would want on that list I already have. I wish Monster House was on there.

None, they are from Fox or Sony. |
