This sale at DD sums up all the Sony titles we've been getting at BL for months for much cheaper!

Well I only had time to hit 2 of my local BL's this evening and did not find the Batman serial but I did pick up these:
The Wild Bunch Original Director's Cut $4.00
Flash Gordon The Dominion of Ming 12 episodes (I love these with Buster Crabbe!) (vintage movie classics -hopefully there is not a watermark on the screen constantly) it is in a very nice slipcover with a fold out front $2.99
Monty Python's and now for something completly different $3.00
and a couple of Anime
Outlaw Star 8 episodes on 2 discs (19-26) $3.00
Cowboy Bebop 3rd session $3.00
These have all already been talked about in this thread I imagine but hey I am late to getting in on the biglots fun but am really wanting to join in!

Sorry about the wrong title on the Stephen King DVD
I haven't seen the Batman Serial at my local stores. The only ones I've seen again from previous sales are Mozart and the Whale $3, Christmas with the Kranks $3 and Timothy Goes to school $4, but very, very few copies.
I don't know how BG stores do their stocking, it's so unpredictable Some stores don't have the $4.90 titles yet.

The Passenger
Memento: Limited Edition Two Disc Set
Flatliners
Casualties of War: Extended Cut
Capote / In Cold Blood
Closer
So at this rate, I might see the $4.90 titles after New Year's...

Not to go too far off topic, but Big Lots has a 32" Olevia LCD HDTV on sale now thru 12/24 for $449. It's a refurb, but I can vouch for this being a great TV for the price as I bought one new from CC back this summer for $550.
My DVDs look very very good on it using my Oppo upconverting player and the HDMI input!

Yeah, I saw them for that price in their Thanksgiving ad and would have picked up another one if I had the money in my budget that week, but everything was tied up for Black Friday.

Wow..great finds toldawg128..
I checked a Big Lots today, and only bought 'And Now for Something Completely Different' for $3. I did see the old North by Northwest release though, but none of those 2-disc titles you found.

^Mine's *real* hit-or-miss! For the most part the DVD "section" at is pretty crappy. Even with this week's "family titles" sale they only had 4 of the titles shown in the ad with just a few each of those! I've managed to pick up a title or two on occasion and I always make a special trip when I read about new titles people are finding (it's only 1 mile door-to-door) but mostly I sit here a bit jealous of what others are finding. There are a couple of titles I've been wanting to find that haven't shown up yet so I'll probably bite at the DD Sony sale instead. Yeah, it's a few more dollars but at least I'll get a farily reasonably priced copy.

I went to my Big Lots today looking for Strangers on a Train 2-disc but no suck luck.
Of the 2-disk SE WB titles all they had was 2 copies of the 2-disk Giant and 2-copies of The Band Wagon Special Edition (w/ slipcover)
I already have Giant and I almost bought the Band Wagon. Anybody seen this one? ANy good>?
