Testify.

Too bad about Fry's. My local Fry's used to have awesome sales with tons of Arrow movies.

Yes! I used to get a quad espresso on Sunday morning and spend 2 hours walking around Fry's. Sometimes I would go to the Burbank store and the Woodland Hills store on the same day. Fry's was unique.

I'd be in the store first day at opening of their Anniversary sale in Burbank before work and scoop up a lot of box sets and movies.

Then on Saturday I'd drive out to Woodland Hills to see what they had.

Glorious days!

I was in the Burbank Fry's a few weeks before it closed, sad. I bought The Rolling Stones CD/DVD Some Girls Live In Texas and the Lambert Stamp Documentary.

Circuit City, The Good Guys, Tower Records good times.

Best Buy is last man standing and we can all see what is happening regarding movies [CD RIP a few years ago at the store].

I'm sure we've all b!tched about something that p!ssed us off at all of these stores but I think once the store is gone we only remember how much fun it was to go in there looking for a new release or a deal.

If you're having Fry's Electronics nostalgia, just pop in the movie Nope and watch the segment when they're inside Fry's. I don't think any movies featured shopping inside Circuit City so we'll have to try to remember all those red walls and IIRC blue floors.

I used to live out there. I was sad when Tower Records closed. But I did enjoy the temporary store they had on Hollywood Blvd, where they were blowing out tons of merchandise for dirt cheap! I bought a LOT!

I don't think I knew about the Fry's anniversary sale though. I used to go to the Burbank store every few months, but it wasn't very close to me.

Fry’s had an ad usually on the back page of the sports section in the LA Times

The week before the Anniversary sale they usually made some mention of it

Waterboy for $2.99?

Sure, why not.

Crap! I missed it. Sold out now.

Not a “must have” or anything, but I did enjoy this back in the day.

I wonder what Best Buy hopes to achieve when it raises prices of blus during these sales. They do this pretty frequently. Speed 4k, for example, just went up $2 and Alita 4k hopped up a $1. Guessing Best Buy is trying to be more "real time" like Amazon. Ugh.

Makes you buy when the price is right rather than sit around. At least there have been a lot of titles rotating in to lower prices.

Yeah, I know that's the intent behind the moves. This whole FOMO approach to sales is just a bit annoying, is all.

Yea i miss Frys always was a fun trip from westside to burbank and the woodland hills store to hunt the deals. I always ended up at the Bobs Bigboys resturant afterwards for a good meal. Last great thing i got was the Arrow Deluxe Gamera Boxset.

Damn i missed that Waterboy at 2.99. I guess momma sez "low prices are da devil"!

[Britnasty]

Is there a current 10% off code for BB credit card holders?

I hadn’t seen one posted in a while.

[d3nt0n]

Can you price match a pre-order?

Stumbled across a "Bundle and Save, buy $2 save $10" deal when I was looking at Creed UHD:

On any of the movies in that actual sale, e.g.

Near the price, there is a link you can click that brings up the list of movies, click on this line:
