Of course, Vudu is having a big sale, too, and I stumbled across The File on Thelma Jordan for $4.99. I was surprised to find out that I didn't have this fine movie on any home video format, but that is now rectified.

I would love to bite on that one as I've never seen it, but I just can't bring myself to buy non-MA titles from Vudu right now...

Amazon is going to have iTunes Gift Cards on sale starting on November 29th thru December 2nd. I think it will be 20% off with restrictions on how many you can purchase.

I'm guessing you buy one, you get a redemption code, which you just enter into your iTunes account, and it automatically takes from the balance until it's used up?

You got it

That is slightly better than Target, which is essentially 15% off.

Amazon is offering a $10 bonus if you reload your gift balance with $100 - I'd be curious to see if you can combine both deals...

Yes!

Target is having one too?

Target is having one too?

Yes, buy 1 get 1 30% off, so it's basically 15% off...

Don't you get another 5% off if you're a RedCard owner?

Don't you get another 5% off if you're a RedCard owner?

Yes, but I haven't tried iTunes gift card purchases to see if it works or not.

EDIT: Just checked. The 5% Redcard discount applies to full priced iTunes gift cards. If that holds true for the BF sale it'll be great!

 

[Robert Crawford]

Yes, but I haven't tried iTunes gift card purchases to see if it works or not.

It has for me on earlier sales. Also, unlike Amazon, Target usually doesn't have any quantity restrictions.

 

[Cranston37+]

I can't figure out if the 5% will work on iTunes or not - I know you can't get regular Target gift cards with it...

BTW - a lot of Target Black Friday deals are live now for RedCard users

Redcard users get 5% off on iTunes gift cards.

 

[Robert Crawford]

Redcard users get 5% off on iTunes gift cards.

Yup, Target had more than a couple of sales this year and that 5% off has worked on those prior sales.

 

[Robert Crawford]

I suspect Best Buy will have a sale on iTunes gift cards too and like Amazon there will be a quantity restriction.

 

[Cranston37+]

See this is what I'm trying to figure out...

Re: Amazon's $10 bonus deal... if you were to spend $100 reloading your Amazon gift balance, you would have $110 to spend. You then get an iTunes e-delivery for $138 (it lets you select a denomination), which after the 20% sale is $110.

If I'm right, that means you can get a $138 iTunes card for $100, or 27% off...

My HD digital of "West Side Story" that I bought on iTunes last December for $4.99 has upgraded to 4K/Dolby Vision. I watched the first 15 minutes of it and looked much improved over the HD digital.

Why oh why didn't I take my own advice and snap it up then? ↓↓↓↓

Someone on another forum mentioned that West Side Story is now available for sale in 4K on Vudu ($14.99) As it is a 70mm production, I’m very interested in a 4K release. Of course it’s an MGM title so it’s not Movies Anywhere. I’m wondering if iTunes will be getting it in 4K soon. It’s currently $4.99 on iTunes so it would make sense to snap it up now.

Ironically, I bought my HD digital on Christmas Day of last year for $4.99 along with about ten other titles.
