I've said this before, but if you're interested in HBO titles, please email them and let them know you want them to offer more competitive pricing with Best Buy's prices or any other stores selling for low prices. They'll respond back saying they don't price match, but who knows? With enough emails they might just listen. I don't know if my emails had any kind of effect, but I'm still hoping they'll lower the prices on Rome S2, Curb Your Enthusiasm S1 and S4, and Carnivale S2.

I ordered S2, S3 and S5 of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" at $16.99 each. Why on earth aren't the S1 and S4 included in the sale? They are 25% more expensive than the other three. Would have ordered the whole kit and kaboodle if they were all $16.99.

I spent way too much on these sales, but all purchases were for family members and friends, so all is well .
Picked up Curb Your Enthusiasm; Entourage Season 3 - Part II; Smallville S5; Gilmore Girls:S6 and Rescue Me: S3
and I received a $5 refund on Carnivale:S2 (which I bought for the brother)
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas... amazing deals!

Amazon gets so many kudos from me this week. I bought the first season of the Wire yesterday morning when it was 29.99-- the price dropped to 27.49 that afternoon so I emailed them and they refunded me the difference. Then today I check my GoldBox and season two is discounted (just for me) down to $26 so I had to jump on that! Whatasite!

Thanks for the post. I happened to see this Sunday night and was surprised to see that the sale was still good. Picked up:
"Crank (Widescreen Edition)" - $7.49
"Grindhouse Presents, Death Proof - Extended and Unrated (Two-Disc Special Edition)" - $9.99
"300 (Two-Disc Special Edition)" - $8.99
"Alien Quadrilogy (Alien/ Aliens /Alien 3 /Alien Resurrection)" - $20.49
"V for Vendetta (Two-Disc Special Edition)" - $7.99
"The Descent (Unrated Widescreen Edition)" - $6.99
As others have said, gotta love that Alien Quad price. As I recall, I paid about $35 for "Aliens: Special Edition", once upon a time.
FWIW, it's after midnight here (so it's technically Monday - 11/26) and the links on the first page of this thread are still working and I still see the sale prices.

Looks like this sale is officially over with prices back to 'normal' -- the Aliens Quadrilogy is back to $49.99.
Boy, I'm glad I got in on that one (thanks to this forum) -- if I had been out of town for the holiday and missed it, I would have been kicking myself til Christmas.
