With a rating of half a star for the movie itself in the Blu ray review section, One Missed Call is probably worth less than $7.99, so at $27.99, there is nothing special about it.

Yeah I have been trying to get people to not bother posting unless its 19.99 or less.

27.99 is not a sale nor a deal. Neither is 22.99 really.

And if you don't mind me saying so: That's a DAMN good rule to make!

Anything over $19.99 is a waste of time and space in the Bargain Forum!

threads like this do kind of serve a purpose though as it could save some people the time of checking on the Fry's ad for themselves. Maybe a thought would be to just do a sticky for each store kind of like the Amazon price update thread? Could make it so people can just come here for details on all the ads even if there really aren't any sales such as with this one. Then again I still browse the Fry's ads myself for other products....but this might save someone. Just a thought

For Fry's ads I go here

http://newspaperads.mercurynews.com/...px?advid=32664

Sales seem universal between stores and it seems that they have more frequent ads (and more pages) than the ads here in Oregon. However every deal I've seen listed on the site has also been in store...so I guess the rest gets passed off as "unadvertised special" to other markets

Or google "frys ads" every Friday morning like I do and you'll get several regional add inserts for Fry's.

Excellent ... I love this idea!!! I don't have the time to go to every site to compare prices and it would be awesome to have stickys to can do that here.

I hope others will agree.

I myself am kind of anti-sticky. Once they start people start yelling at people for starting a new thread asking a quick question. When they could have just answered the noob and the thread would have rolled away. Also in very short order the thread gets to be hundred if not thousands of posts long and anyone not reading it 3 times a day stops looking at it anyway.

I would recommend a Sticky thread that is locked after being updated weekly/daily/whenever current info is available by OP to stop the pages of BS questions and general n00bisms!

I recommend bookmarks and official threads. Stickies get out of hand.
