I was going to post this a couple weeks ago, but I forgot.
I was in BB a buying FOTR and Clones. I bought FOTR online for an in-store pick up at the service counter. A manager rang up my purchase (his tag said "Operations Manager" I think.) Without my asking, he price matched Clones with the deal Toys R Us had going for $9.99 (bonus!!) and jokingly I said something like all DVD's should be this cheap. We started talking a bit and he said "We will be dropping VHS after Christmas" He said he wasn't sure how soon after, but he thought it would be pretty soon based on what he was hearing from the people above him.
We knew it would happen sooner or later, and who knows, maybe the guy just lied to my face. But it's interesting anyway.
