I bought Batman Begins: 2-Disc Deluxe Edition from Best Buy, with the Best Buy only 3-D cover! It's so awesome! Now, I just need to watch the movie.

I'm excited, because I've never seen it!

I wanted to buy the Batman Anthology, but they had none in stock, and it is my understanding that most stores only got a couple of copies, if that.

Batman Begins Deluxe Edition + 2 free sodas ($17.99)
Maaan, free sodas! what a deal! :p

----------------
The only Best Buy that has the Batman Anthology available was in Hawaii. Ryan's co-workers called all 3 Best Buys next to us, and none had the Anthology since 3:00 pm PST. Here's to hoping they have it Friday otherwise, to Target we go! 8)

Oh, yeah RJKD23! I forgot to mention picking up the 2 free sodas, with the purchase of Batman Begins: 2-Disc Deluxe Edition! How could I forget? It's so odd to get free soda with the purchase of a DVD. Anyway, the Best Buy I went to was all out of regular Coke, and all they had was Diet Coke, and Diet Coke with Lemon. I was like, YUCK, diet?! Then, I got lucky, and found two bottles of Barq's Root Beer, which I can handle MUCH better than Diet Coke.

Batman Begins: single disc edition :Stupid Blockbuster!!! Plus, they weren't selling the movie for $15 or so, neither did Walmart. $22.99

PS

Loomis: why didn't you buy the Anthology: through the Net? It would have been $50, and besides.... Batman and Robin is a movie that DOESN'T DESERVE to be bought at $20; the only reason why I want it is because of a collector's perspective.


Hey, Krystal and MadonnasManOne, isn't it funny that those sodas of course are NOTHING special. But once you're in the store and you get it yoou feel so happy and seems so significant. I wonder why.


Hey guys, DID YOU SEE HOW COOL, THE UNRATED VERSION OF SAW LOOKS LIKE? I think I'll buy it just for the box :P

At first I didn't get it. I just saw it there, and looking at it from the shelf it looked to me like those very cheap thin plastc DVD cases, that I was wondering, could it be possible? I picked it up and was for a surprise when I felt it. How could it be so heavey then? Until I "saw" it. :lol:

Have you ever?
Ever felt like this? [...Like this?...]
Have you ever?
Ever felt like this?
Had strange things happen? Are you going round the twist?

If all the kings horses and all the kings men
Couldn't put me back together again
I'd say...

Rain, rain go away,
come again another day.

[Hey!]

Have Strange things happen? Are you going round the twist?

MickeyMousePal, I am with you except for the Disney stuff, why bother, there is nothing special on either disc.

I got:

Batman Anthology price matched at Best Buy - $47.99

Batman Begins - 2 Disc DE price matched for $21.97

George A. Romero's Land of the Dead price matched with Circuit City $14.99

The Jazz Singer - 25th Anniversary Edition and The Big Lebowski SE price matched at $9.99 each

Picked up six other titles and got price matches on all but one of them. Saved about $60 bucks.

And I got my free sodas........they seem to taste better when they are free. And I got all those points on my Best Buy Reward Zone card.

LOL! How true. I went, with my friend to Best Buy to get it. When I got to the counter, the employee said, "Oh, you know you get two free Coke's with that?" I was like, "Oh, yeah, I forgot." My friend said, "How odd?!" I told him that it was in the advertisement for Batman Begins. So, I picked up the root beer.

So, at work, today, a co-worker wanted to see the 3-D cover. I took it to show her. She thought it was so cool. Then, I said, "Yeah, and what is even better were the 2 free sodas." She said, "What?!" I explained it to her, and she just couldn't comprehend the reason they would offer that as a freebie. LOL!

I noticed it when I went to add the movie on my DVD aficionado. Then I went over to Amazon and saw it up for pre-order. It will be out Feb. 7th.
