Corico?

Corteo is the other one - Cirque Du Soleil. I saw one of their shows this year and have seen others on HD, this one might be worth picking up.

[j_garcia]

I didn't notice much of a difference in PQ between the HD DVD and the BD for The Thing.

Strange that they would list Kung Fu Panda as "on sale" when they had it for $17.99 2 weeks ago?

MSRP for Kung Fu Panda is $39.99, so it's still on sale for half off.

Keep your receipt. If they lower the price again within 30 days, you can get the difference refunded.

I picked up that LG combo drive yesterday. I'm laughing how anything with HD DVD is discounted, even though it also plays Blu-Ray. There was another 6x SATA LG Blu-Ray ROM drive that didn't play HD DVD on the shelf at $159. I picked this one up for $99! This combo drive will still read Blu-Rays at 6x. Oh well!

 

[Davidt1]

I wasted $15. This show doesn't do it for me.

Keep an eye out, The Dark Knight is apparently selling for $14.99 at Frys.com It currently lists it as SOLD OUT, however the deal is supposed to be good until the 23rd.

 

[allargon]

Sorry for the delay... I was out of town yesterday, so no Austin paper.

I didn't get to post about the JBL Balboa 30's (Allegedly reskinned Venue Stages, but I'm not so sure) on sale for $99/each! There were a bunch of other one day only deals like $12 Universal Blu-Ray's. D'oh! At least I didn't pull a Clint and oops not one but two AvRant podcasts in the last 30 days!

Umm... yeah. These deals are good until Tuesday Dec 30, 2008.

I did!!

I got a Velo SPL-800R. Yes, I know it's small and I would have preferred SVS's PB12-Plus, but the wife would have shot me. (And still might.)

Something is better than nothing, right?

In the photos, that sub looks so cute and diminutive (only kidding--I know a 12" will have a footprint.) I do like the auto-EQ--very nice!

For those of you with PS3s here is a smoking deal: Dark Sector for $9.99.

It is a decent game, not great, but for $10 who can complain? Deal is online only. I was able to get 2 via in store pick up with that price though.
