If you havent purchased them yet , all the new MM BRs are on sale this week at Walmart for the bargain price of $9.96 (retail $24.99) --

SEVEN YEAR ITCH , RIVER OF NO RETURN , HOW TO MARRY A MILLIONAIRE , GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES & THERE'S NO BUSINESS LIKE SHOW BUSINESS!!

I didnt see the MM box set which has SOME LIKE IT HOT & THE MISFITS - BRs of which are already available - at Walmart but a friend who bought it at Sams Club for $69.99 said the packaging is unimpressive and there is no exclusive content .

This thread makes no sense to me. Should it?

If you were considering purchasing any of these films on Blu-ray, I imagine that it would be of interest - not sure about "sense".

I can't wait to get them. What makes no sense is the Subject line and the post. Your subject says Wamart for $9.96, the the post says Wally's World.

My error - I thought someone here used Wallys World as a synonym for Walmart - apparently it isn't - - I channged that in my post - thanks for the clarification

The Walmart price of $9.98 and the Sam's Club price for the boxed set of $69.98 brings the pictures to essentially the same price because the boxed set also includes THE MISFITS and SOME LIKE IT HOT in Blu-ray.

If you already have THE MISFITS and SOME LIKE IT HOT on Blu-ray (both released previously by MGM Home Video), you'll want to go for the Walmart individual titles, if not, the Sam's Club (and, probably, Costco down the road, too) is as good a deal. (The MSRP for the box is around $100.)

Amazon also has the seven-title boxed set for about $74, so that's not much more than buying the titles individually for $10 each either.

In any case, these are all good prices for newly mastered Blu-rays of some of Monroe's most delightful titles.

Got the Walmart available titles, today, which happens to be a tax-free day in VA. That's supposed to be on school supplies and clothes, but apparently, Walmart is including everything, because I paid no taxes on the Blus. Checked them out, and they look and sound, swell!

The artwork on the individual BRS from Fox is much nicer than the rather drab art on the box set - IMO. The box set does not have individual dvd sleeves for each title.

I'd love a really nice Blu-Ray of River Of No Return. Can't beat that price. smile
