Weekly Roundup 12/17 (ah, the sweet joy of 1.21 gigawatts!) (1 Viewer)

Anybody ever find out the prices of BTTF Trilogy & Minority Report at Fry's Electronics? Please post if you know. I wasn't able to find out the prices over the weekend.

 

[David Lambert]

My local Wal-Mart has BTTF for the very strange price of $36.08, in either WS or FS. Still not quite as good as Costco or Sam's Club, but close enough for non-members to enjoy.

Does anyone know if the Best Buy “10% OFF” Coupon that came in the FOX Demo DVD case will work with Back to the Future set ???

I’m gonna try tonight.
If it works it will only cost 34.19 there.

If not, I’ll use it on Minority Report.

If it's "on sale" Best Buy might not let you use it on the new releases. I got refused on Austin Powers 3 a couple of weeks ago when I tried the 10% off coupon. They claimed it was 10% off the normal prices, not sale prices.

Ugh. Went to Wally World, no BTTF DVDs (plenty of VHS though) While waiting to get my oil changed, I inquired several managers, which sent them on a mad chase. One hour later (when my car was done) the bottom line was "We have 115 of them, our stockroom is packed (too lazy or inept I guess), but we have no idea where the DVDs are" So I drove 25 miles down the road to a Best Buy, used the $2 off Netflix coupon, got it for $35.99 with the cheap watch, and got home 45 minutes later than I planned. All in all not too bad.

I was able to use the Best Buy 10% off coupon on Back to the Future. Technically, I think they should not have allowed me to, but the cashier seemed new and was trying to get me out of the store as quickly as possible.

 

[Qui-Gon John]

I just called my Circuit City and they have plenty of Minority Report WS, so I'll get it within the hour.

I have decided to hold off on buying BTTF, due to the controversy regarding the framing and also mention of an audio problem.

 

[Patrick Sun]

My local Wal-Mart had Minority Report for $14.88 (with a sign that basically said "Take that, all your other stores with your 'low prices!'" They also did have BTTF for $37.09.

I still wound up buying MR at Best Buy for $15.99 to get the bonus CD-ROM that comes with it only at BB. Target is also selling MR for $15.99.

Costco was selling BTTF for $35.99. They were high on both Unfaithful and MR (around $17-$18 or so).

It was disheartening to see the Fullscreen stickers on "Unfaithful" where is promoted the "No Black Bars" as a selling point for the fullscreen edition. I'll probably pick up this DVD (in widescreen) later when Fox marks it down since they seem to mark down a lot of their titles.

Best Buy was still offering the "Buy these 8 DVDs and get a free DVD player" at my local Best Buy. The DVD player was a Cyberhome xx-402 model.

 

[Ben Harpold]

I got BTTF from Wally world for 28.87 and Minority Report for 13.87. Got to love competition.

 

[David Lambert]

Dave thanks so much bud! That's alot of work! Well done. I'll be going to CC to get Minority Report!

 

[Scott Weinberg]

Nice job this week, Dave (as usual). Like many of you, I did the BTTF / MR double feature. MAN, was Best Buy packed!

Best wishes to your son, Mr. Lambert.

 

[Michael D. Bunting]

I picked up BTTF trilogy at my local Wal Mart (Puyallup, WA) for $30.77 and "Minority Report" for $14.77

Headed over to South Hill Mall TARGET and picked up:

"Unfaithful" for $15.99 and "Don't Say A Word" for $9.44* (*w/ the $5.00 Instant Coupon from the purchase of "Unfaithful")

Thanks David!

 

[Nick Graham]

Thank goodness Unfaithful has a seperate pan and scan release, my 3rd grade son and 2nd grade daughter ALWAYS give me grief about "them black bars, daddy!".

 

[Jon Torres]

I was at bestbuy looking at minority report for $15.99 when I overheard a couple saying it was $14.63 at WalMart next door. Turns out it was $14.22. Just saved myself almost 2 bucks. They had 4 times as many fullscreen than widescreen copies. Does anyone know if you can pricematch at blockbuster and still get the free rental?

How'd you get it that low at Wal-Mart???

 

[Shawn Sefranek]

I was also able to use my 10% coupon at Best Buy on Back to the Future.
And I got a 14.99 price match with Circuit City on Minority Report.
