Sweet!!!! Just got back from local Walmart. Got 2 for $98 bucks each. Also picked up 7 movies for $14.96 each.

FYI, you need to be real pushy to get all the movies for $14.96. They were only going to sell certain movies at that price, but since the add didn't specify, a few of us just kept pushing them until they finally relented.

The best part is that I also manage to scam the Planet Earth DVD, normally $65, for $14.96 also.

I am so flippin psyched right now. This will definitely help HD-DVD as there was a long line and all 27 the store had sold out quickly. However many walmart had, I'm sure they all got sold.

 Holy cow on the Planet Earth DVD.  That DVD set is AMAZING -- even in standard def.  It's one of the best documentaries I have ever seen.

 

The Planet Earth series is great, when I first got SKY HD I watched the whole thing on BBC HD. Looked really amazing, then again thats because the earth is Amazing

At $99 I would be really tempted to buy a HDDVD player as my present DVD player is slowly dying, if only I lived in the US.........hey one sec, is it region free?

Pity it isn't an online deal.
