The Disclaimer
| Standard disclaimer: All prices are taken from the websites of each chain, or from their printed Sunday advertisements. All prices are subject to change by each chain. Prices and inventory in-store may or may not match the website price. I, obviously, cannot include EVERY title released in a given week in the RoundUp. The titles included are those that I am interested in...as well as those which I consider will be of interest to a majority of consumers (and sometimes I’ll miss one!). I don't get paid for this, and I don't have the time to list every DVD. So, please don't complain! If there is a title not included in the RoundUp that you want to see, PLEASE just look it up yourself, and be nice enough to post and share the results with everyone! Note that I cannot include Wal-Mart/Sam’s Club prices in the RoundUp. They set prices at individual stores based on nearby competition, so there is no way I can say here what price you'll find at YOUR local Wal-Mart/Sam’s Club location. And, Circuit City is still out of business...even in Hawaii (where they NEVER guaranteed their prices anyway). |
The Specials
**Be Careful! New In Town is being released this week in both OAR & MAR versions! Get the right one! It’s been quite awhile since I’ve had to issue that warning.
--I had to put this week’s RoundUp to be a little earlier than usual…so I did so without being able to actually see a Best Buy flyer. This week’s info is gleaned from other on-line sources.
--Best Buy has a Buy 5, Save $40 deal on five Pixar Blu-ray dics this week. Buy A Bug’s Life, Cars, Pixar Short Films, Ratatouille, Wall-E ($29.99 apiece!) and save $40.
--The following Blu-rays discs are listed on-sale at Best Buy this week:
$19.99: Australia, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Max Payne, Quantum of Solace.
$24.99: Bride Wars, Frost/Nixon, Hotel for Dogs, Last Chance Harvey, Marley & Me, Milk, Notorious, Role Models, Tale of Despereaux, The Wrestler.
--Best Buy Odds and Ends: None to report.
--Target, this week, is advertising FREE VOUCHERS to see Disney/Pixar’s new theatrical movie Up! with the purchase of ANY of the Disney/Pixar DVDs shown: Wall-E, Cars, Ratatouille, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles. It does not say “exclusive” anywhere near this deal. At participating theaters. Up to $7.50 value. Redeemed on-line using in-pack code. See sticker for details. Quantities limited. No rain checks. Up! in theaters May 29, 2009.
--Target Odds and Ends: A list of $10 titles.
I don't mind being obvious! I hope I can find it locally. Amazon's price is awesome...but I had nothing to pre-order it with to get free shipping. anyway...it's hard to find a bad picture of Diana Krall. See?
