Costco: Anyone know how to get DVD pricing/deals info in advance?
 

Normally you can just go to Costco.com to see if they carry a title and what it will cost, but lately they've been doing in store rebates (Two Weeks Notice, Catch Me If You Can), sometimes having a lower price than their own .com and also, sometimes, the .com site has a title the local store won't carry (Mad About You Season 2 for example). I've also noticed that sometimes the titles aren't put on the shelves until a few days after the street date (though that might be a unique shipping problem for us here in Hawaii).

I've asked the people at my local store (Iwilei) and while they said I can call a few days ahead of street date for availability, they told me that the prices aren't put into the computer until that day, so that even they don't know what the price will be in advance.

Anyone know of a way to get pricing and rebate info in advance of street date?

If you go to Costco's website and search their DVDs and then search for "Coming Soon" titles, you will find each title and the price that they will sell for both in the store and through their online service.

Hope this helps!
