• Bug's Life, A (2-Disc Special Edition)
• Great Mouse Detective, The
• Fox And The Hound, The

That's great I'm just wondering if that will include other countries like Canada. Thanks.

I'll probably get Bug's Life. No Black Cauldron, Robin Hood, Aristocats, and Sword in the Stone! :( I might get Fox and the Hound

Temporary? How temporary?

If I can find them cheap I'll probably get Fox and the Hound, Great Mouse Detective and Robin Hood from this price reduction. Tom Thumb and Thumbelina is a maybe blind. I've got Hunchback, A Bug's Life and Treasure Planet already.

On a side note I'm very suprised to see A Bug's Life CE in this batch, seeing as it is a CE.

Wal-mart has some titles already marked at 15.00. Might want to check into that.

Yep. It's taken a lot of willpower on my part to keep from picking up Treasure Island and Swiss Family Robinson. I have two fulfillment tiotles left in the DMC and those are the two I'd like to purchase.

Disney Movies For So Cheap

Post by Disney Guru »

:lol: At Wal Mart at the front of the store they have a Stand that has a lot of Disney DVD'S on it. And they are for $14.40 that is where I buy most of my Disney DVD'S.

Take a peak at my DVD Collection. I don't have all of my DVD'S on it yet but I have a big chunk of them on the list.

I dont know about Hunchback but I wouldnt hold your breath too long for SE of Fox & The Hound, etc. I can pretty safely say that it just won't happen.

Price Cuts

Post by Bill W »

Just went down to Target to pick up Alice, but it was $19.99. But they had a whole bunch of DVDs with "Temporary Price Cuts" down to $14.99 including Bugs Life CE, Fox & Hound, Treasure Planet, Great Mouse Detective, Robin Hood, and Hunchback.

Then I went to Costco to buy Alice ($17.29), and they too had price cuts on Treasure Planet, Robin Hood, Fox & Hound, and Bugs Life CE: all for $12.49! So I bought Treasure Planet too.

Anybody know why the prices have been reduced so much? If it was just one store, I'd figure it was a sale, but two?

I seem to remember reading something a few months back about a price drop on some of those movies, I guess this is it.

Pretty cool because I was thinking about picking up the "Bug's Life: CE" sometime so this acts as a bit of motivation. :D

I was ALMOST going to get Treasure Planet sight unseen at Costco today, but I forced myself to put it back. I really have no clue as to wether or not I'll like it and I'm trying to save money for other DVDs coming out soon.

Hopefully, I'll get The Great Mouse Detective soon (one of the last movies I don't have on DVD that I really loved as a kid).

Jack, you'll like Treasure Planet. But if you want to buy it and since you haven't seen the movie yet, I suggest you rent it first BEFORE you decide to buy it.
