Xbox 360 HD DVD deal at Best Buy

Just a heads up....

This week you can get a sick deal on the Xbox 360 HD DVD player at Best Buy. You can get the player with King Kong for $179. Then you get 2 free in-store HD DVDs of your choice and Heroes season 1 for free. You also get 5 free hd dvds by mail. The people at Best Buy are pretty clueless regarding the 2 free in store, and I actually had to call Best Buy customer care, but they did honor the deal, and they even said they sent out a memo to all stores to honor the deal. All of the free gear pays for the player. Heroes is $99.

Arth and I are going to get this someday.

The cheapest place online for Heroes is about $50, so that is a great deal.

I really want Heroes too.

You could sell the add on and still come out ahead.

Do I need a coupon or anything?

Yeah, I really want Heroes... I think I will do it.

Also, is it any two HDDVDs for free, or do you have to purchase any 2 movies?

You don't need a coupon. It is in their weekly ad. You can choose any two $34.99 and under so you can get pretty much anything except box sets. The ad has the Xbox HD DVD drive and says Heroes free next to it, then later in the ad they have a Toshiba that says get 2 free in store with the purchase of any HD DVD player, and that deal also applies to the Xbox add on. If they give you trouble, which they may or may not, like I said they initially did, tell them to call Best Buy customer care. Best Buy corporate is well aware of the issue and they will tell the store to honor it because it is part of the deal. I got Alpha Dog and Transformers for free.
