The Ongoing Wal-Mart $4.88/$5.50/$5.88 Bargain Bin Thread (1 Viewer)

Nice job Nick
I will be on the lookout for Talk Radio and Hot Shots Part Deux
Luckily found Hot Shots a couple of weeks ago.
There were none in the Wal Mart by my house but MANY in the WalMart across town

 

[EricDW]

Visited a Wal Mart Near Princeton, NJ today and of course, I routed through the $5.50 bin. I bought Short Circuit (Ally Sheedy) and Brewster's Millions (John Candy).
I saw a bunch of other titles also new to the bin including:
Total Recall (Arnold Schwarzenegger)
Daylight (Sylvester Stallone)
Casual Sex (Lea Thompson)
Evolution (Seann Willam Scott)
The Lonely Guy (Steve martin)
That's all I can remember right now. I will check out another tomorrow.

Canadian bins have added WAKING NED DEVINE for $6.88.

 

[CraigF]

Managed to find 2 of the recent Fox/Fortune Star titles (the ones mentioned last by Brian) in the (Canadian) bin, and Hot Shots. Also got Tapeheads from the bin, don't think it's been mentioned yet. Saw a trailer for it on something I watched recently, looked not bad at all, has Cusack and Robbins. All ana-WS.

 

[Matty P]

not sure if this title was mentioned earlier but when I grabbed Hot Shots last night there were a couple copies of "Robin Williams, Live on Broadway" in the bin...pretty funny show, one I don't regret buying for $15 when it came out not that long ago!

 

[EricDW]

Dropped in another Wal mart in my travels today. I saw that WB added two more titles to the $5.50 DVD bin:
My Giant (Billy Crystal)
Valentine (Denise Richards)
I also saw a huge pallot from WB with about 32 different titles at $7.00 each, too many to name.

 

[Chet_F]

Well, Nick Graham I picked up Talk Radio on your suggestion......also checked out IMDB and there were some good reviews. Had to get Airheads too. images/smilies/smile.gif

 

[KevinWEL]

Picked up
DOUBLE JEOPARDY
and
TOTAL RECALL (SE)
from the $5.50 bin at a Walmart near work today. To my suprise their "dump bin" was organized on shelves!!! correctly stacked so you could even read the Mfg. labels on the top seal. Wow.

 

[Nick Graham]

Now I kinda feel pressured...hope you guys like it. If not, well, I'm not sending your 5.50 back! There seem to be multiple copies of The Twilight Zone Volume 2 in our local bin now.

 

[Chet_F]

Yea, I saw those Twilight Zones also...just wish they would have had Vol. 1. Fortunatley I decided to go to a different Walmart than I usually do. A SUPERcenter. They had all of the 5.50 dvds on a giant 4 sided bookshelf. It was soooo easy to see what they had and I didn't have to dig thru heaps of crap to get to anything.

 

[DaveyM]

I bought The Lonely Guy and Two-Minute Warning today. Also saw plenty of The Twilight Zone Vol.2 discs.

 

[ChrisBEA]

Stopped by and picked up:
Anatomy- I was never able to find this in a B&M when it was first release, glad I didn't!
Short Circuit
Evolution
Valentine
All in Widescreen

 

[Marc Fedderman]

New additions to the bin near me:
Ricochet
Kiss the Girls
Evolution
Anatomy
The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle
Standing in the Shadows of Motown (2-disc set)
Plan 9 From Outer Space (an Image disc that includes a circa Ed Wood documentary)
I picked up Rocky and Bullwinkle and Motown. I'm not a huge horror fan, but Anatomy did pique my interest. Is it worth a shot?

 

[ChrisBEA]

I liked Anatomy 2, and have heard good things about the first, I bought it, but haven't watched it yet.

 

[Jimi C]

I got Vanilla Sky from the bin yesterday in Buffalo, Ny.. not sure if that one was mentioned yet.

 

[EricDW]

Saw and picked up 2 new $5.50 DVD titles:
Nothing in Common (Tom Hanks, Jackie Gleason - Directed by Garry Marshall) (Col-Tristar "flipper" disc. If you want to get this flick, I suggest picking it up now as Col-Tristar is famous for dropping the WS side of the disc once it hits the dump bin)
Live From Baghdad (Michael Keaton, Helena Bonham Carter) (This is an HBO movie and I think it is exceptional. I HIGHLY recommend this movie and is definitely worth $5.50!)
Also saw The Forsaken making its dump bin DVD debut in the Wal-Mart Bin in NJ AND all of MGM's MIDNIGHT MOVIES DVDs are in a cardboard dump bin for only $5.00 each! All of these titles were recently place on moratorium. I recommend The Beast Within, Motel Hell, Mars Needs Women, Invaders From Mars and The Pit and the Pendulum.
Happy digging!

Saw the flick "Shade" in the dump bin the other day, now that was a quick turnover

 

[Noley Russell]

Shade, The Man Who Knew Too Litte, even Total Recall
BUT NO HOT SHOTS PART DEUX
Argghhhh

 

[Noley Russell]

Well, I bought Kiss Thee Girls, The Toy, and History of WWF Wrestlemania I-IX
Still No Hot Shots Part Deux

 

[Harold Wazzu]

Picked up Short Circuit & Brewster's Millions
Think they'll ever lower it to $5.00?
