(And since I have $8 off coupon from way back, it'd just be $16.99!) I love how there's a feature where you can tell them about lower prices.

Not yet. Just what was posted above at Blu-ray.com. It probably want be on Target's site until Sunday.

Don't get too nervous. There's definitely going to be a coupon.

Tangled Coupon

It's not active yet, but at least now everyone can put their worries to rest.

I was going to buy a DVD of my favorite TV show but then I realize that Tangled comes out on Blu-ray this Tuesday. Hopefully a $10.00 coupon and my $8.00 gift card it's going to be cheap. Which version should I buy the Standard Blu-ray or the 3-D Blu-ray?

There is a lot of buzz online that the coupon, when available, may only apply to the 3D version (the more expensive of the 2 combo packs). I guess we won't know for sure until they release the coupon, but we might all have to purchase the 3D combo pack to take advantage of any savings.

One good thing about the 3D combo pack is that you do get the Digital Copy also, if you're interested in that.

^If you ask me, the combo pack has the better cover-art anyway.

Any word on those super nice steelbooks from US retailers?

I'm honestly unsure as to what version I should get...

although I do think that I'm going to start collecting Disney 3D Blu Rays as longa s they come with the Blu Ray so I can future proof my collection, plus I'm a Disney nut so I have to have the best version regardless.

I'm wondering if I should retread and get Christmas Carol too...

Yeah, I am not sure either. Tangled is the first release I've been interested in that will be available as a 3D combo pack. For me, it comes down to price. I like a good deal and saving as much money as possible, so if the coupon ends up only being good for use with the 3D combo pack, I will probably just go ahead and get that, even though I have absolutely no plans to go 3D anytime soon, if ever. I just upgraded to HD/Blu-ray this year, so unless 3D becomes the new standard in a short period of time, I am fine with what I have.

I am a fan of digital copies, though, so at least if I get the 3D combo pack, I'll get a digital copy as well.

CampbellzSoup · Post by **CampbellzSoup** » Wed Mar 23, 2011 8:10 am

Agreed.

However I do like the lenticular covers, and they feel like the "deluxe" version of the films and I always try my best to get the best of whatever Disney has to offer.

They plan on releasing Tron in 3D and I'm buying that version with Tron Classic combined so I guess I'm heading in the 3D direction.

Several posters over at Blu-ray.com are reporting that the coupon for this release will be $5.00 off and apply to the 3D combo pack only.

Let the complaining begin!

That makes sense because someone a few posts ago said that Target was advertising a $5 coupon. When Target advertised the coupon for Bambi, even though they had a link on their website to a coupon, it just brought you to a Disney coupon site. It wasn't a separate Target store coupon. If Target is advertising a $5 coupon for Tangled, then it's probably the same deal that will be available for all stores.

Saw that too. It said that the Toys R Us ad mentions a $5 online coupon for the 3D combo pack... It also said that the price after coupon was $27.99.

With 2 ads mentioning that I'm thinking its only a $5 coupon.

Oh well $19.99 after coupon at Target is still a good deal for a new 3D Blu-ray release.

Doesn't sound far from the $10 discount I got on Amazon for buying the two sets together (Tangled and Fantasia). I'm glad I've got paying for it out of the way, now all I'll have to is keep an eye on my mailbox.

From Disney Movie Rewards Facebook Discussion Board... Someone emailed DMR about the Tangled coupon. The response email they got back mentions a $5 Tangled coupon.

Combine that with the $5 coupon mentioned in the Target/Toys R Us ad, and it looks like the DMR coupon will be $5 off the 3D combo pack.

MJW · Post by **MJW** » Wed Mar 23, 2011 1:39 pm

Yeah, I think it's pretty much a definite that it's going to be $5, which is better than nothing, I suppose! After all, they technically don't have to give us any coupon...

Now it's just a question of which store will offer the best price.

Disney Lover · Post by **Disney Lover** » Wed Mar 23, 2011 1:40 pm

I wonder why its so low? Is it because Tangled was such a popular movie so they don't need as much of an incentive to get people to buy?

Yeah, who knows? I'm sure Tangled is going to sell TONS of copies during the first week, and I wouldn't be surprised if it comes it at #1 again on week 2, just like Bambi did. I guess they feel like it'll do just fine without the coupon, plus they'll make an additional $5 from each sale by not offering a $10 coupon. The extra $5 each time should only add up to, oh, I don't know, an additional $100 million in their pockets.

So far Target if your getting the 3D release ($19.99 with coupon).

Kmarts ad mentions a free Rapunzel doll with purchase ($14.99 value), but no price on the Blu-ray.

Since about the beginning of this year I believe, there have been no rebates available for new Disney dvds. For most new releases in the past, I have used coupons that Disney offers and rebates to save money (along with another purchase of something I'd use anyway such as batteries or soup cans). The rebates were usually $5 and there were sometimes two different rebates available per title. The rebates have been available for years, long before they started offering coupons, and they continued along with the coupons until recently. With Disney waverying on the value of their coupons and no rebates, Disney dvds have become much more expensive at times this year.

magicalwands · Post by **magicalwands** » Wed Mar 23, 2011 4:26 pm

I think I will go for the one that is cheapest. It happened for the blu-ray combo packs vs the stand-alone dvds...if the 3D is the lowest price, I will get that.
