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).

Hitchcock Season 5 is going to make it an exceptionally nice new year.

post #4 of 11

Is that a 12 on the end of this roundup?  Thanks Mike and Happy New Year!

post #5 of 11
I'll be picking up Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Season Five this week.

Thanks for the prices! smile.gif
post #6 of 11
Thanks for all your great work over the past year, Mike!

Happy New Year to you and one and all!
post #7 of 11

Happy New Year all!  Hope everyone made it out of the merriment in one piece...even if you're not awake quite yet.  laugh.gif

 

Very interested in Justified, so that may come near the end of the week.  Shark Night is in the Netflix queue.  Otherwise...kinda what I expected for this week...

post #8 of 11
Justified is a terrific series and very reasonably priced too, so I'm definately getting that with the T-shirt from Best Buy. That's it this week.
post #9 of 11

Looking through the BB website, I  found a fair number of well priced stuff to pick up this week (shocking?).  Seven, Goodfellas, The Green Mile for $10.99, Braveheart $9.99, Casino $9.99, Batman Anthology $29.99.  Still gonna have to wait until Thursday...and I'm gonna need more storage...

post #10 of 11
Happy New Year Mike and everyone! Slow start to the new year as I am only getting the Season 2 blu-ray of Justified for sure. I have heard some things about Mildred Pierce but not enough to make me want to spend money on it like I did for Pillars of the Earth.

Thanks for the first round up of 2012 Mike!
post #11 of 11

Happy New Year, y'all!  And thanks as usual, Mike.

 

Nothing for me this week -- maybe later when certain titles get discounted much more (and/or maybe a rental or two)...

 

Oh wait.  Almost forgot that I actually preordered the Proof BD from BB's site when they had it on sale for $7.99(?) during the holidays, and that apparently arrived in the mail yesterday. cool.gif

 

Cheers!
