Today is the day ~ Toy Story 1 and 2 are being re-released in a Blu Ray/DVD combo pack. I’m really excited about this (in case you haven’t noticed from recent posts). I am planning on saving these for my son’s birthday which is 2 1/2 weeks away!
If you pre-ordered your movies at Toys ‘R Us, here’s the breakdown for you:
*Take your receipt with the pre-order card attached (you have to have this to “prove” that you paid the $5 deposit on each movie)
*Your movies will ring up at $21.99/each
*$10 will be deduced because you paid a deposit last week
*You should receive an instant $10 deduction for the promotional store credit they are offering this week
*If you have purchased the movies previously, enter your UPC codes into the “code” box on your Disney Movie Rewards account and you will receive two links for printable Toy Story 1 and 2 upgrade coupons! If you don’t have the upgrade coupons, there are $5 printable Toy Story 1 and 2 coupons (make sure you select the coupons that are valid in the USA because there are also coupons for Canada).
Your total out of pocket will be $3.98 if you have the upgrade coupons or $13.98 if you don’t have the upgrade coupons. Don’t forget to enter your “Magic Code” found inside the box of each movie to get a free movie ticket to see Toy Story 3 when it comes out in June! My kids are so excited to see the movie and I’m so excited to have “free” tickets to see it! I’m even more excited that I was able to get three movies (we bought Princess and the Frog last week) and two movie tickets for less than what it would have cost us for two tickets alone!
If you didn’t pre-order the movie, Toys ‘R Us is still the cheapest place to purchase it. Here’s the breakdown for that:
Buy Toy Story 1 – $21.99
Buy Toy Story 2 – $21.99
Use your Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 $10 printable upgrade coupons (from entering your UPC codes from previous versions into your Disney Movie Rewards account) or the Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 $5 printable coupons
Your total out of pocket will be $13.98 if you have the upgrade coupons or $23.98 if you have the $5 coupons
If you don’t have a Toys ‘R Us near you, Target also has a decent deal. You may be able to price match using the Toys ‘R Us ad (or a Fry’s Electronics ad if you have one near you – their price is $19.97 this week), but this will be a YMMV because the Target version has an exclusive DVD-ROM game and some Target stores are very picky about having an “exact match.” (if you are shopping at Target, make sure you check out my Target weekly deals post for other great deals)
Buy Toy Story 1 – $22.99
Buy Toy Story 2 – $22.99
Use your Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 $10 printable upgrade coupons (from entering your UPC codes from previous versions into your Disney Movie Rewards account) or the Toy Story 1 and Toy Story 2 $5 printable coupons
Your total out of pocket will be $15.98 if you have the upgrade coupons or $25.98 if you have the $5 coupons
If you are shopping at Toys ‘R Us for your movie, here are a few more deals you might want to check out:
*Hershey’s bagged Easter candy is $1.99 each. There is a $2/3 Hersheys printable coupon on smartsource.com, so it’s like you get one bag for free when you buy 3 bags! You pay $3.97 for all 3 bags.
*Johnson’s baby wipes are 3/$7 (through 3/25) – use the $1/1 Johnson’s baby product coupon from the 3-7 RP inserts and get 3/$4. That’s not a bad deal if you need wipes! (this deal was in the BRU ad, not the TRU ad, but it had the TRU logo also)
*Little Tykes toys are Buy One, Get One Free!
Plus, a “Deal of the Day” today only: Buy 2 Strawberry Shortcake dolls or playsets, get one free. Plus, there is a printable coupon for $5 off a $20 Strawberry Shortcake purchase. The Strawberry Shortcake Mini Dolls are only $5.99. The Strawberry Shortcake Sweetest Styles set, Berry Bubbly Bath Set, and and Berry Stylish Mini Dressup Playset are all priced at $9.99 (according to online pricing, there may be others available in store).
