The 40gb package looks pretty good and has a coupon for 5 free Blu-ray movies. Should I go ahead and buy now, wait for Black Friday, or wait for a holiday bundle? I'm not in any rush.

CC has free controller + 5 BDs with this one.

EDIT: I assumed that the 5 BDs is an in-store thing...bringing the total to 10 free with the mail- in offer. not sure though...

Its the standard 5 via mail in. you can make out that it says mail in redemption.

best BF deal so far for the Ps3 is probably at Best buy. 40 gb ps3 plus Open Season and Nba 08.
 
I got it. 40 GB. 😀 My wife is going to kill me.

I just printed it out on a color printer. My Kmart doesn't have a pharmacy apparently.
 
Woot, got one! They clerk ended up having to type in the coupon number since it didn't scan in, but it worked! They said they normally didn't take Internet coupons, but my brother sent his wife in and she worked her magic 😉 PS3 here I come 😀
 
It looks like the next few months could be very good to Sony. A lot of quality games coming out, a new low price, and the holiday season could mean better competition for the 360.

Typical, I found about 3 dozen coupon booklets, but the Kmarts around here don't seem to have the 40GB in stock. 🙁
