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.

* Best Buy seems to have bounced back a bit with their prices this week. Feeling the pressure, I guess? Well, in addition to the prices on the grid, BB will take $20 off the total, if you purchase Six Feet Under - Season 1 at the same time as one of these four box sets: Band of Brothers, Oz - Season 2, Sex and the City - Season 1, The Sopranos - Season 1.

[Marty M]

I will be picking up T & L. Believe it or not, I have never seen this movie.

 

[george kaplan]

Actually this is a big week for me, although only 2 titles that interest Dave

I'll be picking up:

The Money Pit
Man's Favorite Sport
Life Stinks
An Affair to Remember
Send Me No Flowers
The Thrill of It All

 

[Jason Seaver]

The latest markdowns according to VideoTropics web site (DVD Title/Old SRP/New SRP):
-------------------------
Casual Sex?/ Cold Comfort Farm (Value Pack) $29.98 $19.98

Grr. The odd thing is, I'm pretty sure Cold Comfort Farm has never been released on DVD before.

So, as far as I'm concerned, this is a much-awaited new release with a parasite attached to it.

 

[David Lawson]

Jason, I was about to post the same thing.

Does anyone else find it odd that A Little Sex and Predator 2 are among the VideoTropics markdowns on the week of release?

 

[TonyD]

cold comfort has never been on dvd before and is only in the 2-pack with the "parasite" attached to it.


and marty m....what is T & L ??

 

[Alex Spindler]

I think he means Thelma and Louise.

Count me in for The Money Pit.

Thanks David!

 

[Kenneth Cummings]

Sheehs, another slow week. Well nothing again.

 

[Scott Leopold]

I'll be picking up An Affair to Remember. I'll probably get Much Ado About Nothing as well. I'd like to take advantage of the "3 for $20" deal, but can't find 3 on the list I want, so I may just get it from bb.com--I think it's 7.99 right now.

 

[Stephen L]

looks like I'm the only one grabbing Sanford & Son 2 this week.

 

[Malcolm R]

Damn, no package deals for "Sanford & Son" or "All in the Family" when buying S1 and S2 at the same time?

Oh, well. I've already got AITF S1, and I hear SAS S2 is edited so I'm not sure I want it anyway.

 

[David Lambert]

Warren_Sc:

has never been released on DVD before.

I don't think it has, either. But notice The Money Pit and A Little Sex are on the markdown list, too...as are other Universal new releases. These are items that got marked down prior to release. Actually, all the Columbia/TriStar TV releases this week (AitF, S&S, GT, and M...w/C) should qualify that way as well! Ah, well. Just ignore it.

 

[DonRoeber]

Just An Affair to Remember for me. I'm loving these Studo Classics releases.

As always, Thanks Dave for all of your hard work!

 

[David Williams]

Thanks David and Patrick! Looks like just The Money Pit for me this week.
