If you order online and do in-store pick-up, you can't mix and match HD DVD and Blu-ray BOGO titles. I think you should be able to do in-person purchases that allow for mixing between HD DVD and Blu-ray BOGO titles.

Cool. I think I'll just drop by after work. Last night my local store was showing out of stock on one of the discs I wanted (for in-store pickup), but now it's back in stock. (It was in stock on Saturday night -- go figure.)

Same here -- last night I picked up Crank and Transformers. The b1g1 deal message did show up on the register, but not until the final step of the transaction.
Spent a heck of a time trying to find Crank -- it was gone from the regular BD section, but on the shelf in the TV department. I somehow forgot about all the BD and HD-DVD displays they keep over there! The store was so packed it took a while for me to find a clerk to ask.

When I called the 'Best Buy' in Ithaca, NY to inquire about the BOGO deal they said it was on but said that, 'Mr. & Mrs. Smith' and 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' were not part of the deal. When I told them that on their website the titles were listed as part of the deal, they said to bring a printout. Anyhow, at the store they actually charged for the lower priced 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' and counted the higher priced 'Mr. & Mrs. Smith' as the free title.

You must have really liked the sale to travel all the way from Gurgaon to Ithaca to get those discs!  My daughter just graduated from Cornell in June. |
The HP/Order of the Phoenix title has one HD dvd and one SD dvd at our stores.

You know even as I was typing my post, I had realized that those who read it, might be confused by where I live and that the post makes it sound like I went to the store myself to buy the Blu-Ray discs. Anyhow to clarify, I did make the call to 'Best Buy' myself, but it is my brother-in-law (wife's brother), currently doing his Masters in Electrical Engineering at Cornell, who went to the store and bought the titles for me, in addition to a 80GB PS3 (2nd one, for my son's room). A college friend of his is travelling to India for the winter break and it is he who will be carrying the PS3 and these Blu-Ray titles, amongst other titles bought in B1G1F sales on Amazon, to me. My new title, pre-order purchases are supplied to me directly by a wholesaler in the US, but for sale's and other 'post release date' titles, I am dependent on friends to buy and send to me as and when someone travels to India.
