I don't know what's up with the Movie Cash - My friend and I bought 3 copies of the LotR:EE at Walmart yesterday. I bought one and he bought one for himself and one for his mother. Mine and his mother's both had the Movie Cash. His did not. Go figure.
A friend of mine and I went to 3 different Toys R Us's this morning. None of them had a single copy of widescreen Episode 2. We ended up going to Walmart and getting them to price match it.
