CocoaBeans Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I don't want to brave the Black Friday crowds at Target and Best Buy is already sold out of one of the seasons I want to buy. I'm attempting to buy them all from one place. Is there any other store or website that has all the seasons on sale (less than $15)? :) Thanks!!!
jswitzer77 Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Of course it's a gamble, but Amazon.com matched the 12.99 price from Target's sale last year. That's where I ended up getting mine because in my "scouting expeditions," my Target store only had a couple of the season I was trying to get. I'm hoping to get Season 4 on Amazon this year!
Jen8112 Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 You can price match at Walmart. That's what I'm doing with the Supernatural seasons!
ov3rload Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Target normally doesn't have a large crowd late in the day. And I've found that they have a lot of DVDs in stock and don't tend to run out.

TradeViceroy Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 "Price Matching Amazon does not price-match with other retailers (including those who sell their items on our Web site). We do, however, consistently work toward maintaining competitive prices on everything we carry." The policy states that they don't price match at a customer's request. However, the past few years Amazon has "secretly" pricematched the vast majority of video games, DVDs, etc found in all the major ads on Black Friday. They simply lower the advertised prices on Black Friday. That's how I've scored my media purchases the last two years. Add the items you want to your cart and start refreshing around midnight EST. If nothing comes up try again midnight CST, MST, and PST. I don't remember which time zone they use. It may be PST. Hopefully someone will chime in with an answer.
CocoaBeans Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 Thanks! I bought all my $12.99 TV shows form Amazon last year and I was surprised they didn't have good prices this year. I keep checking, though!
civiclover88 Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Coco I just checked Best Buy and all the single seasons are available. However, their shipping times are horrible. I ordered two of them on the 22nd and they JUST shipped yesterday with no way of tracking. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp;jsessionid=B44B09DD412D62D214B5F311E054EC29.bbolsp-app02-54?_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&_dynSessConf=2457982502823786069&id=pcat17071&type=page&st=house&sc=movieSP&cp=1&nrp=15&sp=&qp=&list=n&iht=y&usc=Movies&ks=960
CocoaBeans Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 Thanks so much! Their shipping is a little pricey, too. But BB might go run of stock if I wait for Amazon. Hmmmmmmm.
CocoaBeans Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 With Best Buy, the first 4 seasons of "House" plus the first 3 seasons of "Supernatural," which I also want to purchase, come to a total of $114 after shipping. I also want the 5th season of "House" and the cheapest price I can find online is $30 at Amazon. So, my total between the two sites would be $144. With Amazon, all 5 seasons of "House" and the first 3 seasons of "Supernatural" come to a total of $146 and shipping is free. It's just a $2 difference, so I'm going with Amazon. I still might wait a couple days, though, to see if Amazon price drops. Thanks, everyone!!! :)
adelswick Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 House seasons 1-4 are all now 12.99 on amazon.
