I did look around the counter area but didn't see anything.

And thanks for The Proposition info. I just blind bought the steelbook for $10, but may return it for a $5 blu ray.

If you can, order it online to pickup in-store and get it for the $12.99 price.

Thanks, but you can't use the coupon on online orders.

Good point, thanks! Also found a bunch of sub $20 blu rays on their website, will search a BB on my way home tonight to use my last coupons.

I'm glad so many have been able to get in on this deal. I've bought 6 titles so far, but waiting to get two more. Baraka and Journey.

A ton of BluRays are on sale via the website. Some have quite a big markdown from the in-store price (up to $10 or even more). I just ended up picking up two movies (my wife on one coupon and me on the other). All it took was a quick trip to customer service and having them look it up online and do the adjustment.

The Mist - Marked $29.99, BB.com $22.99, after coupon, $12.99
The Fall - Marked $29.99, BB.com $25.99, after coupon $15.99

Those are good deals Shagrath, but I'm a cheap ass jaded to the extreme.

Thanks to this forum, I pay no more than $5 for a DVD and $10 for a Blu-ray. Requires patience sometimes, but it has worked for over 4,000 DVDs and over 100 BR/HDs.

So you went to the CS and told them you wanted to price match their online price. Then gave your coupon? Just want to clarify before I try it out tonight. THanks

Pretty much, except that I already had the coupon out and on top of the case. Told them that the price differed from their online price, and let them know what it was beforehand.

"Hi, yeah. This is showing up as $22.99 on your website."

She then looked it up to verify, did an override on the price, and then applied the coupon. Completely painless process! I've got 3 more coupons left, and am going to go grab Sweeney Todd today ($30 in store, $28 online). Not that big of a difference, but my wife and I really love the movie, and I pretty much refuse to pay over $20 for a single BluRay.

I picked up Carpter's Halloween on Blu-Ray for $4.99 on Sunday. I've got two more left, and I'm deciding what to get. I might try the price match of the online price.

Can someone tell me if I am Legend is worth a $9.99 for a blind buy?

I got Halloween as well. Hoping to find A Clockwork Orange, shelf tag is $14.99, but can't find it at any store.

I'd say no on I Am Legend, a pretty weak effort. Good rental maybe, but I wouldn't pay more than $5 for it, and only then if it has some good extras.

Okay, thanks......are any other Kubricks 14.99? I didn't see 14.99 shelf tags here, just the 19.99 'horror' titles, and the 2 for $35 selection (or one for 19.99, which has Kubrick movies). If I can get Clockwork for 9.99, is that worth it? It's a blindbuy for me (I know, I know...).

Every BB is different when it comes to shelf tags. Most of mine still have $14.99 up on titles that may have been on sale a couple weeks ago or so. The Shining was another Kubrick. Bullitt, Mad Max were other titles.

Wasn't it supposed to be 24.99? How'd you get 9.99?

Just by asking for a price-match, i've done it numerous times before. Correct me if i'm wrong, but I believe their policy states something about being obligated to do so.

Yep, I've never had trouble getting them to match their online price.

I got them to match Baraka today. The site has it for $21.99, but it rang up at $29.99. I wonder if they're reacting to the Circuit City ads I've seen.

I was going to pick up Halloween for $4.99 last night, but I wanted to know if it was worth the upgrade. I think Anchor Bay will re-release another edition on blu-ray next year. Don't hold me to that..I have no source, I'm just saying. I got Speed Racer instead for $17.99 with the online price match. I have to get Transformers next at $17.99 also.
So should I get the Halloween? Is the picture quality amazing or just ok. I did read the view, but I want to hear from you guys.

I simply asked if they could match Elf's online price, they looked it up, matched it, and took the coupon. $10 out the door without the slightest bit of effort.
