All store exclusives and freebies - 8/19/07 to 8/25/07

These weekly threads are for the posting and discussion of that particular week's store exclusives and freebies.

These lists will likely be incomplete until Thursday or so, since DVDs are released on Tuesday and one of us needs to visit all the stores to confirm things.

Links to the master list and to the previous week's thread are below.

Volunteers needed: I regularly go to Best Buy, Circuit City, Target, and Walmart; but don't visit the other stores every week. If you work at or regularly go to the FYE/TWEC chains, Costco, Borders, K-mart/Sears, Barnes and Noble, Blockbuster, Hot Topic, or any other store that has DVD exclusives; I'd appreciate any updates you could give us.

All Stores -
book covers with purchase of select DVD's (Over the Hedge; Charlotte's Web; Madagascar; Flushed Away; Barnyard) seen at Costco, Kmart, and others
Thread for all movie cash and free ticket deals

Best Buy - comic book with Serenity 2-disc CE
postcards with South Park Season 10

Target - bonus DVD with Dexter Season 1
bonus DVD with Ugly Betty Season 1
South Park Season 10 - lenticular packaging & bonus disc with debut episode of the Sarah Silverman Program, and $5 giftcard
$5 giftcard with House Season 3

Circuit City - nothing

Wal Mart - Perfect Stranger w/ Eye of the Beholder [Eye of the Beholder is a full-screen disc]
Perfect Stranger w/ 8 song soundtrack CD [has songs from Santana, O'Jays, others]

FYE/Sam Goody/other TWEC - I have not been in the store to verify all new exclusives; has anyone else been there?
iron-on patch and code for downloadable content with pre-order for Blades of Glory
poster when you pre-order Heroes Season 1
poster when you pre-order ? (saw ad in store but forget title)

Borders - I have not been in the store to verify all new exclusives; has anyone else been there?

Costco - I have not been in the store to verify all new exclusives; has anyone else been there?

Barnes and Noble - nothing

Blockbuster - I have not been in the store to verify all new exclusives; has anyone else been there?
bonus DVD with WWE: Great American Bash 2007

K-Mart/Sears - I have not been in the store to verify all new exclusives; has anyone else been there?
South Park Season 10 - character buttons
WWE: Great American Bash 2006 & 2007 (Says "Ours exclusively", small sticker says 2006 is free bonus disc)

Hot Topic - I have not been in the store to verify all new exclusives; has anyone else been there?

This is week #4 of the new format.

Yeah I would've done the same, but I stupidly opened it and can't return it now. Oh well, I grabbed my last Angel for 5.99 so I guess it's ok.

That is a pretty awesome extra. Aside from the one on The Wire set, these are usually pretty good. Although I am really disappointed they but 2 episodes of Brotherhood on the Dexter set.

I really enjoyed the Q&A from The Wire 3rd season set. What did you not like about it?

as far as the twec is concerned keep in mind the free ____when you preorder can often be had even if you don't preorder. Unless they get a lot of preorders. But my store rarely does so a lot of the freebies end up in a bin, or in the trash.

I'll do my best to keep this updated as I get information. We don't get many bonus disks though, so you won't see me so often in the other thread.

It's not odd at all if you have seen the "Make Love, Not Warcraft" episode. Very appropriate.
