I bought all 3 at the local BB. PR was $19.99 while GB and UTCM were $14.99...was THAT the $5 discount? "I would say that Prince's top thirty percent is great. Of that thirty percent, I'll bet the public has heard twenty percent of it." - Susan Rogers, "Hunting for Prince's Vault", BBC, 2015 |

Yeah, cuz normally the PR DVD would'a been $24.99. I got the all three for a grand total of $37.00!! (I had a $10.00 coupon for Best Buy!  ) |

I assumed it was $5.00 off each It's not $5.00 off each, it is $5.00 off the purchase price. If you add all 3 to your shopping cart at BestBuy.com, the price of PR SE is lowered by 5 bucks. The message you're about to hear is not meant for transmission

I bought all 3 DVDs on the day of release (8/24) at Best Buy and they took $5 off my TOTAL order. The receipt showed that they took $1.50 off Under The Cherry Moon, $1.50 off Graffiti Bridge, and $2.00 of Purple Rain 4 a total of $5.00 off. Don't hate me 'cause I'm NOT beautiful | |

PR SE & UTCM I definitely want to add to my collection. GB?! I don't think so, Sisqo!  | |

In Canada, I bought the PR SE for 16.99, but UTCM and GB were 21.29 each. 
P.S. Janfriend, I wanna meet your Avatar!  |

which is why people should've ordered it from here... pre-order items, rather than wait for them to come out...
would've got them at 30% off, plus free shipping... rather than just $5 off the total at best buy. oh well  | |

The BB price for PR SE was 19.99 and the other two were 13.49 each...the $5 discount was taken off of those prices not the Suggested Retail Prices. Besides, when preordering, there's always the risk that they will arrive *after* the release date. The message you're about to hear is not meant for transmission

You are probably deducting the $1.50 they deducted for buying all 3. See above post who said they deducted $1.50 off those two and $2 off PR for a total of $5. But another question I have is why would you need these old movies exactly on the release date? Haven't you seen them a hundred times already? | |

I'd be willing to bet that GB and UTCM end up in the $6.99 bin within 6 months. | |

But another question I have is why would you need these old movies exactly on the release date? Haven't you seen them a hundred times already? You're right about the 14.99...I was looking at the wrong place on my receipt. I haven't seen these movies a hundred times...especially not UTCM and GB. I don't own either of those on VHS, so I've only seen them when they air on television. Not that I want to see GB 100 times  .
Besides, if the remastered version of *insert favorite Prince album here* came out, wouldn't you want it ASAP, even though you've heard it 100 times? The message you're about to hear is not meant for transmission

I must be getting old because it just doesn't matter to me anymore if I have it the first available day. I mean a year from now will I remember if I got it on Tuesday or if waited until Saturday? I haven't bought the movies yet, but I'm pretty sure I will pick them up whenever I next happen to be a store that sells them. | |

If you're only interested in buying "Purple Rain", which I was since I never cared for the other movies much and really shouldn't be spending so much money, go to Circuit City and get it for $17.99, which is actually cheaper than getting $5 for all three of the movies. | |

'spect you're right. There's something wrong with the world if they're not. When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. | |

I am buying them all from best buy right now (Woohoo!!!) You guys were right! It should be 5 dollars from each, but that's not what's happening. The purchase price is 5 dollars off the check out price for all three. but I have a question for you all... how do I use my best buy rewards card with it? I call them but I have been on hold forever!! Does anyone know?? 'K1ss' =o* | |

I call them but I have been on hold forever!! Does anyone know?? [color=indigo:f04ebc556b][/color]it was $6 each from utcm and gb less than a week ago here. (and $7 off the se of pr.) that, and free shipping... and you weren't forced to buy gb if you only wanted to save $13 off pr and utcm... 
hopefully someone got in on that deal... [This message was edited Thu Aug 26 20:11:50 2004 by suomynona] | |

The site makes it seem like it would be $5.00 off each. That's tacky | |
