Since I originaly posted this deal, I will give a few more details. Indeed, the others are correct. You can trade in any old DVD in the original box (I traded in a few that I had bought from Hollywood Video when they closed down that were only 25 cents each and only worth 25 cents as a trade-in with Amazon). This promotion at Best Buy goes until October 29th and you can bring in 5 DVDs per visit and if you go to the customer service counter they will print out a nice list for you of all of the titles (MANY pretty new titles) that are included (the only pre-order on the list is Bad Teacher which is also showing on their weekly ad this week). I DO want to give many of you a "heads up" on this coupon. Once you figure out which titles you want on blu-ray, check the BestBuy.com prices as I bought the first 3 Friday the 13th movies and 2 of them came up at $15 and $17 before the discount. When I and the clerk checked the list we found that the Best Buy product numbers were DIFFERENT on the ones in the "Upgrade and Save" section versus the ones on their regular shelves. We simply switched to the ones in their regular inventory and they all came up at $9.99 BEFORE the coupon so I got them all for only $4.99 each.

I found it interesting that the copies with the "Upgrade and Save" stickers came in at higher prices...seems like a bit of scam to me to get those unknowing people to pay more for them than they should. Remember these $5 off coupons are off the SALE prices not just the regular prices so you can really get some good deals here. I got
Dazed and Confused $10
Terminator $5
Straw Dogs $5
Conan the Barbarian $10
Grindhouse $10
Bad Teacher $15
Friday the 13th (parts 1-3) for $5 each

All of these are significantly less than Amazon

So you can take in ANY DVD (that's not a copy, but rather a regular release) and get up to 5x $5 coupons for 5 DVDs?

Hmmmm. Might be worth a look - there's a few on that list that I would be interested in...

 

[digitalbabe]

Yes, I think so Andy-added the text from the site to OP, too.

Thanks for posting DB. Merged threads. True Grit was $9.99, but it's now $19.99. FYI.

I'm going to hit this up on Friday for the Friday the 13th titles.

 

[digitalbabe]

Awesome, thanks Darc!

 

[bd251]

Does anyone know when this offer ends?

 

[digitalbabe]

I don't think it says BC-but since prices go up and down on BD's, I'd say strike when you can Good luck!

They raised some of the prices on the list of titles. For example, last week, the Friday the 13th titles were all $9.99 each, $4.99 after a coupon. They are $14.99 now, $9.99 after the coupon.

I got my eye on Conan and maybe X-men if the steelbook is region locked...

Thought you were region free? I had X-Men in my hands, but decided to put it down after telling myself I'm already getting 3 steelbooks of it.

ran into some trouble today trying to get avatar collector's edition. It wouldn't ring up in the system and the cashier and manager were confused about it. I ended up settling for Bad Teacher and Rob Roy since they would not let me have Avatar for 15.

Sale live again-some confusion at store level, regarding what items are eligible, but it should be any BD $9.99 and up based on their flyer. Good luck! (Info in OP, if not familiar).
