I thought this would be a fun thread to post/brag in. Also might find out something that wasn't in any ads.

For me, I was surprised to see that Target had all 4 seasons of 24 for $16 each, so I got 3 & 4.

I also picked up X-Files season 2 & 3 at Meijer for $15 each (would have gotten them all if I know the wife wouldn't kill me)

South Park season 8 for $18.99 at CC

And then for $5.98 each at Target I got Ghostbusters 2-pk, National Treasure, and 40-Year-Old Virgin (Unrated). I would have gotten Wedding Crashers too, but only the FS version was on sale.

Ice Age 2 $9.99 at WM (PM'ed Stop & Shop)
Simpsons S8 $16 at Target
X3 CE $9.72 at Best Buy (PM'ed WM)

Non-DVD related I also got the very last one of Mio GPS/MP3 system for $150 (reg. $400/450) at my local Staples after strolling in there at 6:10AM Since it takes SD cards I got a 2GB one at Best Buy for $1.04 (used some BBB) to go with it.

circuit city: grey's anatomy - season 1 (8.99), dawson's creek - season 1 (12.99)
best buy: prison break - season 1 (19.99), will & grace - season 1 (9.99)

Glad to see we got this thread kicked off once again. I was also at Target and the first 4 Seasons of 24 at $16 each was a steal. I already have 1-4 but saw a few shoppers toying with it and told them to pull the trigger as a solid blind buy. I grabbed X3, Walk the Line and 4 copies of March of the Penguins ($3.98 each) as stocking stuffers.

I also grabbed the 19" LCD TV. Its pretty nice...and HD ready. For $179 it was too hard to pass up as a replacement for the 11 year old 20" TV in my bedroom.

I skipped my local BB, CC and Walmart, but people in line were calling family members there and as usual, it was a zoo at each of them.

I was done by 645, came home, and napped. Best part of BF IMHO.

Hmm...is 24 a two day sale, or is it only for today?

= J

2-day

CC "Monster House", "Intolerable Cruelty", "Street vol 2" for PS2 and "Space Channel 5" for PS2. CC wouldn't price match any ads that I had. I think there needs to be a sign stating no price matching.

I think you missed the subtle joke in there....

24 hrs = 1 day

That was so bad, it went right over my head.

wow 24 sea. 1-4 for $16 each?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that's a crazy steal!!!!!!!!!

I'm pretty sure they are all sold out by now.....

The Simpsons S8 is a nice deal. Is that a door-buster deal or good through today and tomorrow?

My Target still had plenty of all 4 at 10:00 this morning. They kept bringing more out from the back.


ALL Simpsons seasons are $16 too. Good through Saturday.

Hopefully you can get a raincheck with Target (only season 1 in the ad though)

Got the following at EB Games:

Scarface (X-Box) $29.99
Hitman- Blood Money (X-Box) $19.99

Best Buy
--------

(2) 250 GB External My Book Hard Drives $69.99 each
50 First Dates $2.99
Prison Break Season 1 $19.99

Not bad concidering the lines at either weren't bad at all.

don't suppose this works online too, does it?

**edit** doesn't matter...just checked and no-go

Matrix, Terminator, Terminator 2 (Extreme Edition), and Reservoir Dogs (10th Anniversary) DVDs for $4 each at Circuit City.

A Seagate 120 GB portable external hardrive for $139.99, with a $110.00 mail-in rebate, also at Circuit City. This was advertised as being $169.99, so I'm not sure why it rang up as being $30 cheaper. But I'm not complaining. Thirty bucks for 120 gigs is pretty sweet.

And finally I picked up the Canon PowerShot A530 5 Megapixel 4x Optical Zoom Digital Camera for $128.99 at K-Mart.

I started shopping at around 7:30 AM. Circuit City was a madhouse. K-Mart was empty. All in all, I had a good time.

my best deal was a day off of school and an amazing night of sleep!!

I picked up Seinfeld Season 6 for $15 at Best Buy.

I also picked up the reissue of Wowee Zowee by Pavement at circuit city for $8.99 with the "buy any one CD for $8.99" coupon in the Hastings circular

Target:
The 40-Year-Old-Virgin $5.98
March of the Penguins $3.98

Walmart:
Over The Top $3.44
The Wedding Singer $3.44

Hastings:
Basic Instinct 2 $5.99

That's it, pretty lousy since I'm broke and unemployed.

Got a few used dvds at Hastings:

Ultimate Matrix set - $17.49
MacGyver S4 - $12.69

I am returning later today to see what else I can find.

Got a load of DVD's at Walmart , via the pricematch . Could not believe the lasy at the register , she just said "ok" and kept ringing them up . My wife is a better DVD pro than I am now . She had a list of items to pricelist , the price , and which store . All stored in a folder , with the ads from other stores .
She would say "This is $x.XX at xxxxxx " and start flipping to the ad and the lady would say "OK " and grab the next movie .
She got alot of box sets , one for sure was Family Guy #3 for $16 .

We also nabbed a 51 inch projection HDTV RCA widscreen TV for $474 .

It rocks but I now need to find a place for it ...... our entertainment center has a 36 inch opening .
Im too tired to hook it up right now , I got out of bed on Thanksgiving Day at 7am and have not gone hard-down since .

My mother in law also got one of the $398 computers from WM , just for our girls to play on when they are at her house . She is tired of them booting her off her PC

I dunno how many DVD's we got this AM , if my brain did not hurt from lack of sleep Id try to figure it out .

I ended up dumping my CC stuff and walking out since they had 2 registers to check out 2000 people.

I did well at Target though. Besides taking care of most of my holiday purchases of other stuff I grabbed Simpsons Season 8 and Gilmore Girls Season 5 for $16.

Only went to hastings
House Season 2 $15.99 (was supposed to be season 1, but ad showed season 2)
American Dreams $15.99 (not in ad, but had a shlef tag)
Monk Season 4 $15.99

With personal shopping day 10% savings, I picked up Buffy Season 3 for $18 at Borders. Season 6 was also available but I didnt want it; I didnt like that season.

Started out at Wal-Mart at about 8:30 am, only slightly crowded and no waiting for cashiers. The sales DVDs were tricky to find as they were in the aisle of the clothing department:

Maximum Overdrive WS $3.44
The Hulk WS $1.88
Casino WS $3.44
Dumb and Dumber WS + FS $3.44
The Dead Pool WS $3.44
Star Wars IV: A New Hope WS (w original version) + graphic novel $9.72
Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back WS (w original version) + graphic novel $9.72
Star Wars VI: Return of the Jedi WS (w original version) + graphic novel $9.72

Went on to Best Buy at about 9am, which was very crowded. I was interested in the Pioneer DVD burner, but Best Buy had routed the long return line through that aisle so I couldn't even access the area. I started browsing to see if I might pick up Groundhog Day for $2.99, but saw the single checkout line snaking to the back of the store and realized it wasn't worth it, so I left without a purchase.

Target is next door on Sisk in Modesto, so I popped in there and was happy to see no waiting for cashiers. I went searching for the $3.98 DVDs and finally found a special cardboard standee in one aisle that had all the titles from the ad plus a few more. I pulled out Batman Begins WS and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire WS.
But at the checkout Harry Potter rung up at $19.99. When I protested a young supervisor with a teeth-gnashing grin explained that for some titles only the Foolscreen is on sale. I again protested that they both came out of the same sales standee, but that meant nothing to him. So shame on Target for stocking sales titles in with non-sales titles in hopes that your shoppers won't notice at ring-up. So my only Target purchase was:

Batman Begins WS $3.98

and that's it, a few bargains in under two hours.
