Not sure how long this is lasting, but I checked online to browse any possible BD sales that might be going on, and I found some pretty good offers on a few FUNimation BD titles that may be of interest:

Vexille - $7.49
Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn - $8.99
CLAMP Double Feature: Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE: The Princess in the Birdcage Kingdom / xxxHOLiC: The Movie - $12.99
Gunslinger Girl (complete series) - $19.99
Gunslinger Girl: Il Teatrino (complete series) - $19.99
Samurai 7 (complete series) - $19.99
Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE: Season 2 - $22.99
Heroic Age (complete series) - $22.99
Devil May Cry (complete series) - $22.99
Dragon Ball Z Kai: Season 1, Part 1 - $24.99
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood: Season 1, Part 1 - $24.99
Ouran High School Host Club (complete series) - $26.99
Trinity Blood (complete series) - $26.99
Claymore (complete series) - $26.99
Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE: Collected Memories (complete series + movie) - $39.99

Get 'em while they're available. I bought GSG (first season), DMC, and Ouran. The store might not have signs for them on the shelves, but I price checked them and they are ringing up at that price.

EDIT: Changed the title to reflect the overall sale on both DVD and BD. Also added the end date.

Too bad I don't have a blu ray player or money at the moment or I would go get some of these titles.

Wish I had some money... I'd totally score on a couple of those.

One of the few times that I'm posting here...

Quick things to note...Vexille BD listing is actually a SE DVD release. FMA Movie DVD listing is actually BD.

The sale started yesterday. B&M selections will vary as some stock may be depleted already (same thing can be said for online). See additional details below.

THANKS! These are some great deals! I hope I can get GSG 1 & 2 + Witchblade before the sale ends... EDIT: DARN! Can't get Witchblade, GSG 1 or Claymore! Not even available for local pickup, either! I'm going to check on Sgt. Frog now. I don't feel too bad about missing out on Witchblade, which was my top priority, because it'll probably end up being $30 shipped anyway.

Looks like Amazon is having a comparable sale: http://www.amazon.com/s/qid=1278403230/ref=sr_pg_1?ie=UTF8&rh=n%3A130%2Cn%3A!404276%2Cn%3A517956%2Cn%3A672576011&page=1

Some of thsoe prices are pretty good! Slayers seasons 1-3 for $30, Slayers Revolution and Evolution-R for $27, X for $23, Rin for $25...

So no biggy if Best Buys are out of stock of some of the items. Check it out! Great time to buy Smile Not sure when the prices will go though.[/url]

The Amazon deal is better in some ways. Free shipping over $25. No tax. None of the titles I am interested in from Best Buy are available in store in my area.

In another way, the Amazon deal isn't good because they now use Lasership to ship to my area. They're a very sketchy "business". Be wary!

I might get Xenosaga just because it is so cheap.
