picked up "the mayor of sunset strip" for $2. It is a documentary about the famous los angeles rock dj Rodney Bingenheimer and a great film.

Saw II
The Ring Two
The Manchurian Candidate

That plane movie with Cilian Murphy (Red Eye?)

Stopped by the Coon Rapids store to check on Columbia/Tri-Star titles. Nothing I haven't already got, but I found a copy of the Warner two-disc SE of "Dog Day Afternoon" for $4.00.

Figures

I found about 8 copies of Baadasssss!(now that I have it I can spell it correctly) today at BL after someone else has just picked one up for me. I got a copy anyway just in case, and I'll probably be able to help someone out if needed.
Restock included those and 4 or 5 copies of Goodbye Lenin, 2 or 3 Backlot Murders, The Debut, 3-Way, and some other stuff I can't remember.

Still didn't find any copies of Le Dernier Combat or anything else I was hoping to pick up for others here, so I will mail you guys separately in a little while.

While I was there though, I picked up Prince Of Persia: The Two Thrones for the PC for $6 and also Rogue Trooper for $6. Got RT because of nostalgic reasons, as I have all the comic books, but the game probably sux though , I'm not sure.

I've been looking for Dog Day Afternoon. Today I found Baadasssss (which i'm going to trade in at DVDPlanet), The Debut (looked interesting), and Returner for $2 each.

Picked up "How To Make a Monster: Creature Features". I did see one copy of "Baaaaadass", but it was loose. I hate that.

Finally got a chance to go by there today and they had restocked in a big way - more DVDs than I have ever seen at this BigLots. No Dog Day Afternoon, but I picked up a few of the previously mentioned $2 titles. They also had a lot of the Previously Viewed ones, which were overpriced at $5. You might want to check your local BL.

I saw some two disc sets today packaged side-by-side for $4.00. I didn't know any of the title however, except for a Tori Spelling cheerleader movie that I think was made for the Lifetime channel.

Nothing new at my local BL except for the appearance of those "pre-watched" titles. Can't believe they expect to get five bucks for them.

Yeah, I noticed they had those at my BL stops yesterday too. Looked like a bunch of cheese to me, one of the 2-packs was Ants/Tarantulas as seen here in an Amazon link:
http://www.amazon.com/Ants-Tarantula...388711&sr=1-26


I had to replace the store that's closing with a new one, so I stopped in Derry, and they had a pretty good selection, but nothing new I was looking for.
I almost picked up a copy of John Lennon Imagine for $4, but the UPC was scratched through, can't stand that.

In Amherst I saw a copy of Secret Ballot(this was there last week but I forgot about it), and only one of the other Baadasssss! copies were sold since last week, they still have 6 left.

Found The Loves Of Carmen yesterday for $3.

Ken Cline, you still around? Not sure if you can or if there's anything new to add to your list.

I'm linking to it here, because it's hard to find: Thanks!

Saw these same previously viewed DVDs at my local Big Lots today. One of the titles was Red Eye for $5. The funny thing is there was a brand new copy of the same movie for $4.

Saw Alexander 2 disc version for $4 at my local Big Lots today. I was there looking for games and actually passed on this as I didn't think it would be any better than the one disc version.

Not exactly DVD deal, but I just picked up a TV stand at Big Lots for $130 which is very similar to the Z-line stands at Circuit City for $300+.



I just put it together, and it is a beautiful piece of furniture, my girlfriend likes it better than the ones at CC. The picture doesn't do it justice. If you need a new TV stand, make sure you check it out.

• Wire management back panel
• Square metal tubing with chrome plated accents

Thanks for the heads up on the TV stand. I didn't find the one you show above, but I found a couple others that may work.

Also, found three DVDs for $2 each, probably listed earlier, but here goes:

The Iron Giant SE
Funland
Deadly Run

Lots and lots of horror titles that weren't there last month or so, several triple feature titles of classic bela lugosi, christopher lee flicks and the like.

If it's like the one near me most of them are left-overs from last Halloween, especially those with the lenticular cover sleeves. But they were all $3 this year. Last year they were $4.

Iron Giant SE was $4 but I got it anyway. Must be a YMMV.

I purchased this about a month ago and have been VERY happy. The stand looks great, is very sturdy and has a top shelf large enough to hold the base of my 61" TV with room to spare. The entire thing is made of heavy-duty metal and thick, tempered glass. It's hard to see in the picture above, but one of the "X" braces has a black lacquer finish and the other is finished in chrome. Also, the shelves look a lot better than the picture. They all have a nice, black, shiny finish (not a matte finish as shown in the pic of the top shelf).

I also found a copy of the Iron Giant SE, but it was $4 (still a great deal). I already own it, so I got it for my nephew as an extra birthday gift.

I spotted The Iron Giant: SE for $4 yesterday, too, but had picked it up months ago during one of Kroger's 2/$9.99 sales. They also had the original (fullscreen) Chariots Of Fire and several copies of Sandler's Click at $4.

The anime titles are getting extremely scarce now.

My local Big Lots has a ton of cheap B-grade or rather mostly Z-grade horror titles now. I do believe they have about the entire library of titles put out by The Asylum company all for $4 each, along witht he aforementioned triple features and some boxed set double featurs of things. I saw about 20 different Asylum titles.

I picked up the following:

$4 - Lady in the Box
$4 - When a Killer Calls
$4 - Snakes on a Train
$2 - Cut/St. Francisville Experiment double feature

i did see "far from heaven" for $4.99 and was tempted to get it but it had a HUGE slash through the UPC code. so i decided to hold off on that.

A lot of Asylum stuff showed up at the location near work today, along with a healthy restock of the old $2 titles. I picked up John Woo's Once A Thief (which I had never seen in stores) and Innocence (which I had seen, but kept passing on). Double Vision is the only one I might go back for; I passed on it for now since I wanted to read some reviews first.
