No problem.

There seems to be a variety of lists floating around, so if you have the time, its best to ask for the store list. I'll be back before the months over for a few more that weren't on the list I was given...

You can't beat the 2/$40 selections with this promo. Kudos to HMV for this offer.

picked up both Futurams today and the Simpson Movie
Futurams were in the 2 for $50 and the Simpsons was a 2 for $20 purchase,
when rung up the Futurams were listed as $25 each and the Simpsons came in at $20 , this minus the $21 credit gave me 3 for 55... sweet deal
Will be heading back for Fargo, Sideways and 28 weeks later

Wish I had a HMV in my area...

master_8ball · 05-05-2009, 10:17 PM

I feel like I just robbed the place.

Picked up:
Die Hard Collection for $41.99 +tax
X-Men Trilogy w/ movie cash for $35.99 +tax

Smadawho · 05-05-2009, 11:18 PM

What was the original price of the die hard collection there? My HMV has it at 69.99 and thats the advertised price online as well, minus the 7 dollars would not even be close to what you got it for. Also the X-Men trilogy was not listed as an available choice on the website. How did you get it for that price?

Die Hard collection consists of 4 BDs and some people manage to get 4*7 = $28 discount on it. 69.99-28 = $41.99

Yes, 4x7 for Die Hard and 3x7 for Xmen. The manager did it, and she said the that the sets have a number on them for how many disc discounts. Die hard has a yellow round 4 sticker and Xmen a round 3.

Smadawho · 05-06-2009, 12:52 AM

Wow I was under the impression it was just one 7 dollar discount, I even asked one of the people working there but I am gonna go back and ask a manager because that's an unreal deal.

I bought the second Bond set and was told it was only $7 off the set.

Clearly, it varies by store, and maybe even by staff member.

Smadawho · 05-06-2009, 02:54 AM

Can anyone else confirm a purchase of the die hard collection or the 007 box sets while trading in 3 or 4 dvds?

look at the thread, obviously some are. On the other hand looking at http://www3.hmv.ca/hmvca/images/spec...-bluray-09.pdf it appears that it is a mistake

Quote:

Limit of 1 DVD trade-in per Blu-ray Purchase.

Quote:

Multiple disc box-sets will be
credited as per the number of discs in the set and the
credit of $7 per disc must be used on the equivalent
number of Blu-ray purchases. (i.e. 1 3-disc DVD boxset
equals $21 credit which must be applied to the
purchase of 3 qualifying Blu-ray titles.).

so some are mixing up DVD box set= 7$ rebate/disk with that it applies to BD box sets (21$ rebate for X-men)

Stas · 05-06-2009, 05:01 AM

It does vary by store. Today I was told that they don't do the trade ins. I had to call the manager who appeared to be mad at the member of staff for not being aware of current deals and after that everything went smooth.

deathmachine · 05-06-2009, 01:20 PM

I've got a question... 24 Season 7 comes out on May 17th. So if the Blu-ray's $60 at HMV and the set has 6 discs, I can exchange 5 DVD's, get $35 bucks off it? Or is this promotion only offered to specific blu-ray's?

The deal is only for select blu rays and I have seen no mention anywhere about the 24 season being a part of it when it is released. Also it seems that it should be only 1 discount on boxsets of $7 but you might get lucky and get more.

It applies to a specific list of blu-rays, so I doubt the new blu release of 24 would be included. Even if it were, I think you would only be able to get $7 off by redeeming 1 DVD, they won't let you combine multiple credits for a single title, regardless of discs included.

demetrios · 05-06-2009, 03:35 PM

sweet! will check them out this weekend!

Snyder-man · 05-07-2009, 08:27 PM

just came back from HMV, the movies that are offered arent anything special, alot of which are over priced and the $7 brings them down to normal pricing at wal mart. was looking for the X men trilogy but they didnt have any, only the individual movies at 26.99...they are 19.99 or 21.99 everywhere else.

Stas · 05-07-2009, 11:33 PM

This deal is great to people who don't have all of those movies from 2/40 selection at HMV. For example, I got Kingdom of Heaven and The Simpsons Movie for $13 each. Great price.
