Huh. I looked at the fine print on the sign at that store, Wayne...and could have sworn it specifically said that the member's discount was NOT in play as part of the sale. And I was thisclose to taking a picture of it with my phone but didn't.
Has THAT always been going on?!? :eek:
What a great service! I'll have to check that out every week! :D
That guy is pretty sharp (except when he's an idiot!).
Oh no! And I'm going to be at my local B&N tomorrow. I might just have to check things out. :D I was kinda hoping to convince myself that my 2011 Blu would be good enough. Dammit!
What are the other new releases tomorrow? Gotta go find David's list...
Don't know if this is pertinent to your store, Rodney...but my B&N keeps the bigger sets separate from their regular Criterion section. Plus, they other random Criterion titles located in other parts of the media section and sometimes even out in the book section of the store (sometimes near...
I stopped by my local B&N today and picked up Cluny Brown and Local Hero.
I don't know ANYTHING about Local Hero...but, while in the store, perused David's list of new titles (since the last sale) and those are the two titles which spoke to me. Sounds interesting.
I went back for a second bite at the apple yesterday. :D
I walked away with the interesting triple feature of:
The Baker's Wife
The Tree of Wooden Clogs
Funny Games
That place looks mighty familiar, Adam! ;)
But having a bin near the mall entrance is a huge departure from past sales.That looks like the bin that used to be located right near the entrance to the media section. I never would have looked there either! I'm glad to know where to head when I...
I hit my local B&N tonight...for the sole purpose of picking up the Dietrich/von Sternberg set.
After both the sale discount and my member discount, the set rang up for $56.24.
Suh-weet!
I was worried at first, as I checked the Criterion section and couldn't find any. Then I checked the small...
Interesting. There was no one in the media section of my local B&N when I was there. Never seen that before. But there was a sign which said if anyone needed "customer assistance" to go to the cash registers at the mall entrance to the store. When I walked out of the media section with my...
Got to my local B&N over the weekend.
Picked up:
Pan's Labyrinth
Tom Jones
King of Jazz
Virgin Spring
The Awful Truth
...all for $17.99 apiece! :thumbsup: :D
I will be heading back this week (maybe tomorrow!) for the Dietrich/von Sternberg set.
And then I'll head back on (or near) July...
Hmmmmm. Does this mean if you order on-line you DON'T get the 10% off member discount?
EDIT: I'm messing around with a potential online order. I have a few Criterions in my cart and even at checkout I'm not seeing a member discount--even though logged in as a member. Just seeing free...
