Yea, I'm stopping by after work today.

After lookag at thier site, there are quite a few titles for $19 and many for $20.

Looks like an expensive trip to Target..

I just ordered Golden Compass, may go pick up ID4.

I'll have to go buy and pick up ID if they still have it.

Anyway, some will wait until BDs come free in cereal boxes.

Guess I'm gonna havta stop by Target this weekend.

I still got my eye on yall waiting for one slip up and I'll come down on ya like a heat wave.

I am going to get ID tomorrow, if there are any left.

Wow, they had about 20 titles for $19.99 on sale. I picked up 5 titles, ID, I-Robot, Mr Brooks (my wife will like this one), Ice Age and Ghost Rider( Yeah, I know, not a great movie but my wife REALLY likes Nicolas Cage and will watch any dumb movie he is in). I was tempted to buy more but I put a 5 title limit on purchases.

If Target was to do this even every other week their BD sales would soar, several other titles were sold out by the time I got to my local Target this Saturday and there were only 1 title left of 3 of the 5 I purchased. Maybe we should start being vocal about where the price point should be for BD I like the $24.99 price point with new releases selling for $19.99 the first week. Seems to work for me.

Target is going to sell a LOT of BD titles this way. The last couple of days both of my local Target stores have been sold out of Independence Day, I Robot, and a few other sale titles. I didn't even see a tag for Fifth Element, so I guess they were out of that one too.

Perhaps they are testing the market to see what the tipping point is for selling BD titles in quantity. It would be great to see other retailers do the same.
