The Disclaimer
Standard disclaimer: All prices are taken from the websites of each chain, or from their printed Sunday advertisements. All prices are subject to change by each chain. Prices and inventory in-store may or may not match the website price.

I, obviously, cannot include EVERY title released in a given week in the RoundUp. The titles included are those that I am interested in...as well as those which I consider will be of interest to a majority of consumers (and sometimes I’ll miss one!). I don't get paid for this, and I don't have the time to list every DVD. So, please don't complain! If there is a title not included in the RoundUp that you want to see, PLEASE just look it up yourself, and be nice enough to post and share the results with everyone!

Note that I cannot include Wal-Mart/Sam’s Club prices in the RoundUp. They set prices at individual stores based on nearby competition, so there is no way I can say here what price you'll find at YOUR local Wal-Mart/Sam’s Club location. And, as always, Circuit City does not guarantee their sale prices in Hawaii.

Thanks as always for all your hard work Freezer. Didn't know there was a new SE of Breakfast at Tiffany’s out. I'll still wait for a version on blu-ray though, but at least I know it's a possibility now to be on the look out for someday.
Nothing for me this week, it seems the post holiday dulldroms have hit.

Why...it's part of the Paramount Centennial Collection! Word is, there's not much (if any) of an upgrade in PQ.

Which is exactly why I'll wait for blu-ray. Paramount is a bit slow with older catalog titles, but I'm sure they'll get around to it eventually.
