Any Given Sunday @ Wal Mart??? - Blu-ray Forum

Lucky Luc · 01-27-2009, 09:04 AM

Is Wal Mart selling it? I didn't find it here in town. The idiots there don't know what I'm talking about either.

To find older titles at Wal-Mart is almost impossible. If they get any at all, it might be like 1 or 2. The only old titles I remember them actually having stock on was Spider-Man trilogy and Ocean's boxset, although those were being released with the latest version. Your best bet is to either spend the extra money to get it today at Best Buy, or if you have an H-E-B Plus!, they have them for pretty much the same price as Wal-Mart would.

my walmart carries a handful of catalog titles. off the top of my head, i know they have First Blood part 1 and 2 (for 10 bucks each)...i can't quite remember what else.

But overall, yeah...the suck. I never go to walmart if im looking for a paticular blu because i know i probably wont find it..even if its a popular new release. they didn't even get tranformers right away!

STARSCREAM · 01-27-2009, 04:47 PM

I doubt they get it. They have been absolutely aweful about getting catalogue titles in, the worst by far around here. They never did even get transformers in!

Another_Dude · 01-27-2009, 04:52 PM

There is no rhyme or reason to the catalog titles that Wal-Mart carries. I use Bestbuy for their selection then cruise through Wally and Target just to see if there is anything I want that happens to be on sale.

Yeah, and even Best Buy is likely to only get like 2 copies of the older releases.

Well, how many copies were you planning to buy?

If they've got two, then you buy one and you're happy.

If they're out then they'll have more in a few days, which is still better than Wal-Mart.

If you're still not happy there is always Amazon.

(Hint: Go to Bestbuy's website and you can check to see if the title you want is available for pickup in your local store)

That's not what I meant, I just meant that if you're lucky, you might find a copy at Best Buy. But there's a chance if they don't have it, is cause they only got 1 or 2 copies and you went too late.

BScratcha · 01-27-2009, 06:25 PM

Best Buy has it, just get them to price match their Web site ($19.99)..that's what I did today.

nolfoc · 01-27-2009, 06:47 PM

my local best buy had about 5 copies. and i went their around 2pm.. so who konws if other people picked up copies..

DetroitSportsFan · 01-27-2009, 07:30 PM

Got it at Best Buy today. $19.99.

ulri4651 · 01-27-2009, 07:49 PM

Wow, I LOVE my Wal-Mart. They have nearly every title I have ever wanted. And their prices are GREAT! Just recently they added a whole section of $10 Blu's! I picked up Reservoir Dogs for $10! And today I was able to get Any Given Sunday, Groundhog Day, Drumline, and The Rocker. I have NEVER had a problem finding a catalog OR new release title. Sorry to hear of so many people not finding what they are looking for at Wally World.

what do you have to do..print out the website price and bring it in?

Lucky Luc · 01-27-2009, 08:54 PM

Then I guess my Wally Martinez sucks. Best Buy is 2 1/2 hrs away.

Just bring the disk to the register and tell them you'd like to price match their website. They'll look it up, then have a manager come over and OK the price override.

I've done it enough that I walk into BB and a manager heads over to the register.

jono_0101 · 01-27-2009, 08:58 PM

great movie, cant wait to get it on blu, but i own the dvd, so itll have to be on a sale before i double dip it
