Question: If I buy a copy at Best Buy or Circuit City, will they price match Target? I've never done a price match with either of those stores before and was wondering what their policy was. Thanks.

Just bring the Target ad with you.

Anyone have any trouble price matching Casino at other stores because of the "10th Anniversary" heading yet they only thing in stock is the "Special Edition?"

I was able to price match Casino at CC. It was $19.99 so with the Target ad it came out to $2.40 they had a bunch, I picked up 5 for family and friends.

I went to three different stores this morning looking for these and some other titles. I specifically was looking for A Beautiful Mind and Casino.

I got it at Circuit City, and like I said they had at least 20 + copies.

Got the Widescreen version of A Beautiful Mind. When i got to the register it wouldn't scan...so they did a price check after they asked me how much it was.
4 bucks was too cheap for them to believe me i guess, but thats what they guy on the radio called back and told them it was.
They also had a few more $10 movies that aren't listed here, got PotC too. Was going to get Block Party but they didn't have the unrated version.

Anyone have the complete $4 DVDs list? The ad says more titles in store.
EDIT: My Circuit City was completely wiped out of Casino DVDs.

Special vs. Anniversary
Ach, should have been more careful. I didn't realize the Special Edition and the Anniversary edition were different until I opened it up and saw I didn't have the flip-disk. Target will let me trade back but, since it's open, only when they have the Anniversary disk in stock, which they don't.

My target had copies of The Perfect Man for $4, however they were all Full Screen.
Just a heads up that there are a lot of unadvertised $10 deals, I would say about 15 titles at least, the ones I remember are:
Tora Tora Tora (SE)
The Longest Day
Patton
River runs Through it
Legends of the Fall
*all the above are the SE's (the one with the special packaging)
Bewitched
13 Going on 30
(can't remember the rest)

If they don't get more, do you think Target would let me get another DVD for 60% off? Their rainchecks no longer have the wording about substituting a similar item.
