Did anyone see the KMart ad for 5 for $20? The titles in the ad are: AI, Harry Potter & Chamber of Secrets, Jurassic Park III, Spy Game and City By the Sea. Ad says titles may vary by store. Anyone see this in store? Are there more titles does anyone know?
Thanks so much for posting this info! I was going to head out to Best Buy today to buy "The Munsters" but since I read this post looks like I'll be diverting to Circuit City and saving approx $9.00! AWESOME!!! Work can't get over fast enough!
My local BB had the maxim disc, but I haven't had a chance to watch it. They seemed to have less Maxim discs than GND discs, so it is definitely a "while supplies last" type of thing.
I picked up TGND & Purple Rain at the Inver Grove Heights, MN Best Buy (pm'ed PR to CC's $17.99). I threw in the NBC fall lineup dvd since I thought it was free - nope, it rang up at $4.99.
I tried to argue that while the ad did not explicitly state that it was free, the wording in the weekly flier ('No purchase necessary/Limit one per customer') reflected the spirit of a free promotion.
Alas, to no avail. Instead, the CSR's were adamant that the disc was $4.99 since it was a special preview disc.
Are you sure of that? The flyer here in L.A. had it offered for free, no purchase required.
When I had my purchases rung up it did note on the receipt that the cost (in the left hand column) was $4.99, but that cost was NOT included in the final total (the right hand column).
In your fliers, what is the exact wording of the promotion? Was the word "Free" used anywhere in the product description?
The argument used by the clerk against me was that the wording 'No purchase required' did not mean free. Instead, the customer wasn't required to buy anything in order to receive the $4.99 'deal'.
I had the same problem with the NBC disk and just returned it on the spot -- had already bought Apprentice at Target cheaper. They have so many offers and packages that it's impossible to keep track of them all.
Although I think this is widely known, I haven't seen it here and want to point out that Best Buy has tons of "Madden" coupon books lying around that include a 20% off any DVD coupon. I got Futurama for $26.39 with it.
