Best Buy return question?

Sorry if this has been asked before, but here goes:

Best Buy is currently giving away alot of free "Bonus" DVDs if you buy the related DVD at their store. What happens if you buy the movie, get the Bonus disc, then try to return just the movie.

Does this work? I'm sure people here have tried it. Any problems?

you can return the movie w/out the bonus disk, but you will only be able to trade the returned disk for anouther copy of the Matrix. Once the disk is open (which it has to be to get the bonus dvd) all you can do is exchange it for the same item.

Hope that helps.

Does anyone know if the Indiana Jones set will be packaged WITH the bonus disc? I know the James Bond bonus disc was separate.

Masetodd,
Why do I get the impression that you have no desire/intention to buy the DVD movie with the free bonus DVD. You come across strongly that your only intention is to cheat BestBuy out of the free DVD promotion - plain and simple, that is unless you prove otherwise!
It surprises me me how the mods of these forums allow such posts which flagrantly only encourage more of the same scams.

If Bestbuy has the set for the cheapest price, then I probably will buy it there. But if I find it cheaper somewhere else, AND can still keep the Bonus disc, then I will.

Some people need to get off of their "holier-than-thou" trip. Jeeeesh!

Buying a disc at one place and returning it at another to snag a free bonus disc is fraud and we do not permit that type of discussion on this forum!

Thank you for steering me to the light. I will never do a dishonest thing in my life again.

WOW! I didn't know being a law-abiding citizen could feel this good! I'm free! Praise Allah!

Masetodd,
Since you seem to want the last word on this, let me just say that it's
good to know that you are now a convert to Allah. Maybe you will also ask Allah for forgiveness for admittedly being a CROOK, that is spelled C R O O K. May I also suggest that if in the future you get tempted again to look to this forum to satisfy your scams and intention to fraud retailers and asking members for help in your scams, maybe you want to entertain the thought of looking for such information elsewhere and leave this forum free from crooks/cons like you.
Get the message?
