Albums on sale this week

[areyoureadytojump]

Someone suggested that I start a thread for this topic.

Each week I'll post the albums that are on sale at Target and Best Buy. I'll get the info from the circulars that are in the Sunday paper.

If you get up early Sunday mornings and want to post the info, please do.

Does Walmart do a circular? I don't think it features new music in the circular

Target:

None listed this week.

Best Buy:

On sale for $9.99:

Adele, 21
Incubus
Big Sean
Wiz Khalifa
Ledisi

[I Wish]

Walmart doesn't. This is a great idea, thanks for taking the initiative to start the thread. :)

[HolidayGuy]

Walmart did have local ads, but they apparently stopped. The site says they will return at the end of the month, though.

[Minor Scratch]

Yea thanks, this would help a lot when choosing if I wanna purchase or not. Doesn't iTunes have sales as well?

[lemi]

It'd be great to include digital and CD Amazon.com sales too.

[Caviar]

I'll do AmazonMP3 sales.

[Honeymoon]

The Best Buy offer is very enticing (and I haven't bought a CD since January 2010, strictly AmazonMP3 for me nowadays), any idea of the titles they are selling for that price? Maybe they're trying to clear out some of their catalog albums...

Aerosmith - Classics Live
Bob Dylan - Greatest Hits, Vol. 3
Elvis Presley - An Afternoon In The Garden
Michael Jackson - Blood On The Dancefloor
and a bunch of a 20th Century Masters Greatest Hits collection from artists like Barry White, George Strait, and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Barbra Streisand's new album is $3.99 today only on AmazonMP3

[jgizzle89]

excellent strategy for "Watch the Throne". Discounting in the 3rd week should really soften the drop.

[areyoureadytojump]

They put the Target and Best Buy circulars in the saturday newspapers here in NYC.

Nothing's on sale this week except the new albums that are being released.

[HolidayGuy]

Do retailers select the titles that are part of a widespread albums sale, or do labels play a role in that? That iTunes list led me to the inquiry.

[areyoureadytojump]

^I'm sure the label. They have to ship enough copies to cover the sale.

Nothing in the Target/Best Buy circulars this week.
