This life has been a test. If this had been an actual life, you would have received instructions on where to go and what to do.

Standard disclaimer: All prices are taken from the websites of each chain, the week of the release (so as to catch any week-of-release sale prices). All prices are subject to change by each chain. Prices and inventory in-store may or may not match the website price. If a price is marked "$_N/A_" in the grid, it means that this title is not shown as available on that chain's website...but it COULD still be in-stores!
I only include the titles I feel like including. In fact, the titles are pretty much the ones I'm personally interested in, with few exceptions. I don't get paid for this, and I don't have time to devote to doing every DVD. I have a lovely wife and a four-year-old son I'd rather spend time with. Please don't complain. If there is a title not included in the Roundup that you want to see, just look it up yourself, and be nice enough to post and share the results with everyone...like I do!
Note that Circuit City does not guarantee their sale prices in Hawaii.

* BE CAREFUL! Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron is available in both Widescreen and Fullscreen versions...get the correct one.
* Non-OAR discs are, as usual, entirely left off the Roundup. Examples: The Last Seduction and The Hit.
* Target and K-Mart seem to be the places to check lately! Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron is $14.99 at both chains! But Target wins out because they give you free Act II popcorn (a "6-pk") with purchase! Both also do great with Reign of Fire which is $14.99 at Target and $15.99 at K-Mart. But Target gets the hat trick, with a $14.99 price on Juwanna Mann to boot! Wee-doggy! Please note that Target's ad circular shows Spirit and Reign of Fire as "Low Price" in the ad itself. I have it on the BEST authority that the price is indeed $14.99 for each, but please remember that this is subject to last-minute change. In other words, don't beat me if this is wrong; it aint' my fault!
* For *their* Spirit purchasers, Best Buy has a bonus item, too: a "Holiday Fun Kit" CD-Rom. with "over 70 printable images" (presumably from the movie). Also, Reign of Fire purchasers get $5 off instantly if they also purchase Count of Monto Cristo at the same time. And, if you purchase Glenngary Glen Ross, you get a $5 gift card free.
* The only new title advertised at CompUSA this week is Spirit for $19.99.
* Walgreens Drug Stores are advertising Spirit for $20 even. Did I just say that?
* A reminder for Borders customers that today and tomorrow (Sun & Mon) are the last two days to use this coupon! This is a "Friends and Family Days" deal, and it goes on to say this: "Print this page and bring it to your local Borders, Waldenbooks/Brentano's, or Borders Outlet store to save 20% on almost everything in the store from November 15 through November 18." It has some restrictions: "DVD discount at Waldenbooks/Brentanos is 10%. Discount on electronics and video games is 10%. Offer excludes DVD players, previous purchases, purchase of gift certificates, shipping charges, non-stock special orders, used or out-of-print titles, newspapers, periodicals, comics, and membership fees." Notice that the DVD discount restriction applies to Waldenbooks/Brentanos, but not to Borders! Keep in mind once again, though, that Borders registers are pre-programmed to restrict DVD discounts to 15%. Duke it out with the staff if you're willing to, but I'm not!
* Slow week this week, eh? I'm not even planning to spend $100!! Well, we all need time to catch up on our other recent purchases. I'm glad that Best Buy will have the plain jane version of the My So-Called Life box set on sale for $59.99 (normally $67.99); I can live without the lunchbox and the vaporware bonus disc for that low a price!!!
* P.S. - For anyone who still hasn't managed to get Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (chased away by the crowds, perhaps?), K-Mart is still advertising it for $14.87! Even if they are out of Widescreen copies, the ad should still be good for a price match at Wal-Mart.
