Re: Blu-ray B1G1 @ Toys-R-Us (instore only)
It is appearing like the price of the BD titles in this promotion will be $24.99. My local TRU had a whopping 3 titles in stock (they hadn't received their allotment by this afternoon), and the titles were all $24.99. I hope to snag Ratatouille and Cars if they ever do show up at my local TRU. I hope I get to use this $5 coupon for Disney BDs as well, but I suspect it might be a YMMV sort of thing depending on who you get as a checkout clerk:
Happy Blu Year

My local had all the titles, plus it was giving away a Jungle Book bongo for every Disney title. I was sort of regretting not going for the Amazon deal on the Pixar films a couple months back, but this serves as another reminder that such deals are rarely once-in-a-lifetime.

Did anyone else have the clerk ask if I wanted to pay $3/disc for disc replacement warranty (in the event the disc gets scratched and become unplayable, and also supposedly allows you to trade the disc in at a later date if you don't want it and just trade it in for another disc/title)?

Nope, but mine might have been too distracted at the prospect of unloading an overstock of bongos.

What was up with the bongos? I sort of remember seeing them in the store, but didn't pay too much attention to them as I was in a hurry to get home.

40th anniversary promo for Jungle Book. Not sure when the original promotion was, but they apparently have lots of 'em left over.

Is there *ANY* way to get a solid list of what's available (and prices)? I'd like to see more of the selection before making the trip.

Their website is completely useless for determining what titles (and prices) they carry.
Thanks...

The ad linked to in the first post shows them all. My store was also $24.99 each.

I can't decide if I want to get Bridge to Terabithia along with PotC3 because I'm not sure if I could watch Bridge to Terabithia again and not be just as affected as I was when I saw it at the theaters last year. PotC3 would just be the completist in me since we got PotC1 and 2 at EMA last summer.

I know what you mean, but I haven't seen either of them so the decision is a little easier. It also helps I didn't think much of #2, so that solves the internal debate.

Oh, I see. Thanks. For some reason, I thought someone mentioned (or implied) there were more than just what are shown in that ad. Maybe I should go get Casino Royale + PotC 3, if they would take my $10 Disney coupon for PotC 3 -- and then just hock it off somewhere since I already bought that recently.

Of course, I guess I could also make my daughter real happy and get High School Musical 2 (yuck!

) instead -- well, at least it's widescreen, instead of 4x3.

And there's also Cars I suppose, which I never bought in SD...
