I'm gonna buy the Double Pack at Wal-Mart and I have a question for anyone that bought it. What's the song list on the CD?

I did the pre-order at Best Buy, and save 5 dollars on Ecape to Witch double pack, on the back of the pre-order cand it says not good with any discounts, promotions, or freebies. But I was still able to Flounder anyways, since the clerk didn't know the rules, and the register just sees if you bought TLM, to give you Flounder for free. I'm sure they ran out of dolls by noon. Though they had more dolls, then when I got curious george, with the free doll.

Our Best Buy received another shipment of treasures; or at least it seems that way. They now have Complete Pluto and the Mickey Mouse Club and got even more copies of several others; so I'd go out and check BB again if you're looking for these.

I know that my Best Buy still had MM BW Vol 2 and Chronological Donald Vol 1 last time I checked a couple of weeks ago. I still need to get them. Though I do remember that there were more of MM than of Donald. I'll have to check to see if anymore have come in as well.

Heads up!

One of the BBs in Oklahoma City (Quail Springs store) had Mickey Mouse Club, Donald 1 and 2, MM in B&W2 (maybe 1 as well,) MM in Living Color 2 and either Goofy or Pluto (I think Pluto.)

I just need to get the Rarities set and the Spin and Marty set, I believe...

This site has the titles available. That's a really good deal! If I have enough money by the end of the week, I may have to go and stock up!

I found it first in the ad in the Sunday paper- it is both online and in-store!!!

What stinks for me is that last week I bought "The Apple Dumpling Gang" and "The Parent Trap" and paid $9.99 each, and I could have saved $6.00 (but I didn't know about the deal).

ha, I JUST saw that on BestBuy.com, and I was like, "I HAVE to post this on UD!"

Anyway, there's some AMAZING deals!! For example, here are some that are only $6.99:

Sword in the Stone
Homeward Bound
The Santa Clause (1 AND 2)
The Rescuers Down Under
The Parent Trap (original version)
Snow Dogs
Mighty Joe Young
The Rookie

and there are A LOT of others!!
Oh, and Circuit City has Dinosaur for $9.99. In case anyone's interested.
I'm considering getting SitS. Do you think Disney will release a new version of it sometime soon?? (ala: FatH and Robin Hood)? I'm very hesitant about getting any more GC DVD's, because I only have 2, (Robin Hood and The Aristocats), and it looks like Disney's putting out new releases of both soon. I would also love to get Homeward Bound, as I have ALWAYS really liked this film, and find it extremely underrated. But, I have the VHS of it, and my parents would flip out, because they believe that there's no need to upgrade VHS at all. That is, unless its broken and is an all time favorite (that's why they allowed me to buy TLK PE, because the VHS is pretty much dead, and its been one of my favorite movies of all time).

Anyway, what do you think? (In general, I don't mind upgrading VHS at all, it's just that I don't want to have to upgrade DVD's, unless its something like a Limited Issue to the Platinum Ed.)

Overall, yay Best Buy!!

I didn't know that "The Aristocats" was being re-released!!??!!

To answer your question about upgrading...
I would if I were you. Many people are holding off on buying "Cars", because they're sure that a 2-disc set will be released maybe in the summer. But, many people held off on buying "Lilo and Stitch", since they thought that Disney was supposed to release a 2-disc set (which they advertised 2 years ago or even 3), and we have yet to see that in Region 1. So, if you hold off now, who knows how long you'd have to wait until "The Sword in the Stone" is actually re-released.

So, I would buy it. Espcially since it's so cheap.

Well, it hasn't been proven yet, (no press release or any announcement), but the GC edition has been "quietly discontinued", and is now OOP. So, I'm assuming that next year, Disney is going to release The Aristocats in an edition akin to the release of Tarzan, TENG, and the Fox and the Hound.

There are several movies I'd love to get (Rescuers being one) but Parent Trap includes the TV Sequel and I'd rather have the Vault Disney Edition without that sequel. :(


But that's a great deal!

I remember a few years ago when they had a 3 for $30 offer. I got Hercules, Father of the Bride & Father of the Bride Part 2.
Disney Channel died when they stopped airing movies with Haley mills (Parent Trap and Pollyanna) and fun adventure movies like Swiss Family Robinson. R.I.P. the REAL Disney Channel. Date of Death: When the shows became teenie bopperish.

I already pre-ordered "Cars" at Best Buy, and I paid $5 up front, and I have no idea how much more I'll have to pay (I bought "The Little Mermaid" the day it came out, without pre-ordering it, and paid $14.99, and I got a free plush)...but, if I end up getting movies with this deal, I'll be spending over $40 at Best Buy this week, which is money I don't have to spend as of right now...I mean, I could technically spend it, but I don't know if I should...but 5 for $30 is excellent. Espcially since I'm trying to bulk up my live-action collection.

Wow! That 5 for $30 dollars deal is really awesome. I don't think there are 5 of those movies I want (I'm just looking for the animated classics) but $6.99 a piece is a bargain on those too! Looks like I might have to bulk up my Disney DVD collection this week.

I thought I would tell anyone here who is thinking about getting Homeward Bound at BestBuy, apparently the DVD still presents the movie in Pan-and-Scan (aka: FOOLscreen), when its OAR is in widescreen. And the only extra on the DVD is the original trailer. :( So, I think I might just pass on that DVD, and hope Disney gives us a SE in the future.

Where'd you buy em? Most places have a 30day price gaurentee on stuff like that...go back to whereever with your receipt and the BB ad, and you'll get prolly get the difference (~$6) back.

I already knew about this deal since last Sunday.
Yeah, I go to a website that a member gets these ads a week before they are in the store or in the Sunday paper. 5 for $30 or $6.99 each is a pretty good price.

Snow Dogs
Cool Runnings
Mighty Joe Young
Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey
Snowball Express

Not sure if I should get these two since last time I saw them at Costco they were $8.99.
