right now I'm looking to buy Bring It On this afternoon. BB's sucking website has it for $15.99 but I cannot add my CC number - tried it with two browsers, so now I have to go and spend $4 more for it at the store. Why bother with a @%#$ing website that can't even take a simple CC number. Why the F do they need to store the numbers anyway. I was going to make the order for pickup so like I said I will now be paying exactly $4 more to pick it up at the same gd store. Worthless idiots.[Edited by Wolfchild on 02-16-01 at 12:32 PM]

I think Bring It On is still $15.99 at Best Buy. Just get there sometime before they close tomorrow and you should be fine.
The price in the circulars are good for a week, and the week for this particular circular ends tomorrow.

I ordered this for pick-up at my local Best
Buy without any problem!!! If you have a Best Buy near you...you may want to change your shipping preference to pick-up if possible!!! I will also be taking my 10% off preferred customer coupon in on Monday and having them credit my card for the difference!!!

Well I went in and was able to get a copy in the store.
My aggravation though, stems from the fact that they store your credit card numbers but their system is so whacked out that it won't take a perfectly good card that I'm using everywhere else. And this is not the first time I've run into this. I do have a couple of CCs on file there, but ones I did not want to use for this. One time I tried to add my Best Buy credit card number and it wouldn't even take their own card.....not very confidence-inspiring.
