Topic: Ayala Makati Midnight Madness: August 31-September 2, 2007

[watson's box]

i was only able to get one dvd from the sale. I didn't actually have anything in mind to buy when i went there today. I was browsing though the shelves and found a copy of the regular high school musical for 299. Thing is, it was a R1 disc so i took it home with me. I don't know if that was a good buy but it's definitely better than the local viva copy.

It is definitely a good by for an R1 at 299. Congrats! c",)

Thanks for the update.  And thanks too for persuading the Magna people to lower the prices to 333.   

I didn't go to the sale and still not planning to.  I pretty much got most of those title on sale (that I liked) in previous sales at either 333 or BuyOne-Take One.  The titles I am planning to buy will not go on sale at least until October (guesswork) as they are mostly releases in the past two months.

Another victim.....

Worse.  Plug it in and find out.  Go back to Astro and demand your money back.

[frootloops]

I managed to peek at the titles availabe at Landmark DVD/CD section and I am quite surprised of the titles they have in stock which I do not see at Astro anymore, especially the 299's and box sets. You just have to dig into their piles of DVD's.

SM Makati 2nd Floor-
P299      Night of the Museum ( last copy for that day!)
            Eragon

Lucky you!!!  Been waiting for these to go on sale...
Night - still 550 at SM AstroPlus; Eragon - didn't find any copy.

Yeah, last piece yung Night.  You can look for Eragon at other Astro stores, I believe it's now priced at P299 just like Devil Wears Prada and other new releases.

[mattia]

got for myself the Superman (Ultimate Edition Steelbook) at Astro Glorietta . Dami pa copies dun.

Those looking for Band of Brothers (Steelbook edition) Astro Glorietta has 2 for sale at P1500

Troy LE Phil. Release around 10 copies pa.

Didnt see the Da Vinci Code Giftset though 

Entourage boxset (i think season 1 and 2, not sure though) at P350 per boxset. Yun Friends boxsets looks like P750 per season.

The Entourage boxsets on sale were Season 2 & Season 3 Part 1.  I got those from the podium sale last August @ P350.  The Entourage Season 1 is now out of stock but the kind people of SM Astroplus promised that they will let me know if they have stock already.  It's not a boxset though but a double disc copy just like Grey's Anatomy Season 1.  Incidentally, the Grey's Anatomy Season 1 was on sale @P299 a couple of weeks ago at Robinson's Galleria Department Store and Tower Records Mega mall.  I think there are still copies on sale.

Thanks! Good thing I didn't buy those during the Sale (as it wasn't on sale then - ironic, huh?).
