Went to Best Buy to buy the Wizard of Oz 2 disc version and all they had left were the overpriced Collector's editions.

So I went over to the Disney section and found the Treasures: Mickey in B&W vol 2 for $24.99.

Herbie Rides Again ($11.66 CDN)

Cinderella Platnium Edition and Herbie: Fully Loaded. I still have to watch both!

I bought Alice In Wonderland ME for $15 at Best Buy.

The last Disney DVD I bought was Cinderella.

Toy Story 2 pack - Factory Sealed.

All I can say is YOU LUCKED OUT on that one! I went to all the brick and mortar stores recommended to me by members here -just 2 days ago and had NO LUCK finding any tins. then a member told me that those stores would likely not have any tins - only when the tins got first released can you count on finding them there! So you really scored on that purchase!

I just bought DuckTales Vol. 1, and then found out I paid too much--after I had opened it and watched the first episode.

By way of explanation, so you all can take advantage if you haven't already bought it:

Deep Discount DVD is currently having their semi-annual 20% off sale, and I figured I'd grab both DuckTales and Rescue Rangers there, but they didn't have them for sale on their site. So I paid $24.99 + tax at Best Buy. Just 10 minutes ago I discovered that DuckTales and Rescue Rangers are both now listed at DDD (apparently they were erroneously excluded before) for $19.11 each after the 20% discount--no tax (if you live outside of Illinois) and free shipping.

I paid $7.44 too much for DuckTales, which would have gone nicely toward the cost of Rescue Rangers.

The moral of the story is: do your research, find the best price, then wait a few more hours, and do it again.

On the bright side, DuckTales is as wonderful as I remembered.

Just buy it from DDD than when you get the copy take that one in with your receipt to the store you buought it from. Problem solved.

The latest addition to my Disney DVD collection is Lilo & Stitch Special Edition, and Cinderella Platinum Edition will be next on my list.

Bought Chip 'n' Dale Resuce Rangers Season One and Five Mile Creek Season One at Best Buy. $22.99 for "Chip 'n' Dale" and $32.99 for "Five Mile Creek". Of course being a good Reward Zone member I also had some $10 certificates, so I ended up lowering the cost of each set by five dollars.

I never shop on line.......won't go into it, but the world's most unsafe place for a credit card number is out there in 'internet-space'. You never know who is going to hack in and get those numbers. Besides, I hate waiting for the stuff to come, and even if the shipping is free, you end up paying on the interest charges. I have not bought anything on line for at least 10 years because of a little incident with Amazon.com that cost me my credit rating and a world of time lost from work fighting a debt that I didn't owe. Buyer beware.

I only shop at Best Buy, Border's Books, Circuit City, Wal-Mart, K-Mart, and Target.......and between them I generally find a price that beats the internet prices anyway, and I get to take the product home and watch it, I don't have to wait for the 'eternally-slow' mail person to bring it to my home. Plus there are enough used DVD stores, Pawn Shops, and Hollywood Video and Blockbuster stores that I can wait a few days and pick up a 'like-new' copy of the movie I want if I don't want to pay the higher price. I am not that particular about having to have something the day that it comes out that I can't wait a couple of weeks and get it for half-price or less at a Used DVD store, or through the Previously Viewed sales at Blockbuster or Hollywood video.

DuckTales: Volume 1
The Misadventures of Merlin Jones
Bon Voyage!

Just bought Cinderella: PE, DuckTales: Volume 1, and Chip 'N Dale RR: Volume 1.

I found Cinderella on sale at Future Shop, but DuckTales and Chip 'N Dale were a bit harder to find (eventually found them for $24.95 at a different Future Shop - took me an hour to drive out there, but they were worth it!).

I finally got Cinderella. I don't know about you guys but this DVD was pretty cool.

i had the animated movie with mickey donald goofy the three musketeers.

I thought about that, but unfortunately, it won't work for me--I don't feel right about doing it. Yes, if I did, Best Buy would end up with a sealed, resellable copy, and be out nothing, but it was my mistake, not Best Buy's, and I need to live up to that. If nothing else, it'll help me be a better bargain shopper in the future.
