Forgot about that one. The most recent releases are usually not in the first offer. It should hopefully be in the next one and also it doesn't stop suppliers doing it anyway. I remember some sites doing BATB when it wasn't officially in the offer.

Expect the sites to start appearing on Sunday night. thehut, Zaavi and play are usually early. I am hoping for a 10% thehut code to turn up and get them at £15 for two like last time.

Prices on Amazon have already started to go up. Tangled blu ray has gone up by £5 already.

BATB - I preordered so can't say

UP - released 15/2/10 - sept BOGOF (skipped march)

Bugs Life - released 6 Dec 2010 in March 2011 BOGOF

Incredibles - released 27 Jun 2011 in Sept 2011 bogof

Wall-e was released before BOGOFs started, I got it free with player so don't know if it was in first bogof (which was march 2010).

So on the whole only definitely UP was skipped, so I think its disappointing LatT isn't in this one.

Given on this occasion there is nothing I want here due to previous BOGOF's, i'm hoping that the BD of LATT might eventualy go onto their rewards site. Having said that there are a few other animated Disney's yet to be released on BD so maybe their next BOGOF will prove to be more interesting to me.

my problem mainly with the buy one get one free offer is, everyone bumps the price up anyway

toy story for example with zavvi and the hut is now 15.95 ..but it has been way cheaper down to 8.00 or below before this deal came out...

so really youre getting these titles for the normal sale prices, rip off if you ask me...and put some 3d titles in there to make it more of a bargain... don't think this is nothing to get excited about..

anyway..does anyone know from the titles on offer which gives the most disney reward points?

It's no surprise when every Disney BOGOF has been the same and it happens nearly every non Disney BOGOF's too everywhere.

Disappointed to see Lion King is the one disc and I bet it doesn't come with a slip like the double play. Also, how can the hut be £15.95 a title and come out at £16.50 BOGOF.

The companies have seriously caught on about the Disney BOGOF and more importantly the very, very few newcomers to it have too, last year Sainsburys Entertainment screwed up for a while but TBH it's not a surprise that they all have learned.

I was hoping that the new Asda system missed it but there you are.

Play.com have started their BOGOF... I'm pretty sure some of them titles were £10 last night, it's now conveniently gone up to £17 - well I'm not buying any and besides I have most of the goods ones there!
I like the word Free but it seems you can no longer get anything for free without paying for it one way or another - so how is it free?

Yes, it is a pretty disappointing BOGOF. Whilst others here were confident that LATT would be in it, I was quite sure it was too soon after release. I'm glad I picked up the 'Lady and the Tramp 1 and 2 Double Pack [Blu-ray][Region Free] (Blu-ray - 2012)' for £17.99 at Amazon. The prices for the other BOGOF titles are nothing too special either...

Yes, but it's too bad they only ship to Great Britain and not overseas...

this bogof offer is deffo a smoke and mirrors routine for the unsuspecting consumer, they need to start introducing 3d titles into the next bogof they also need to stop raising the prices of older titles..this seems to be across the board now at all retailers..

steering clear...

Didn't think Sainsburys was doing too bad at £14.99 for 2 blu-ray or am I missing something.....seems like this thread is turning pretty negative.....£7.50 for a Disney blu-ray is very good is it not? There is a lot of people out there who may be only starting their collections or have to get the odd title plus Disneypoints on top so don't think £14.99 for 2 is a bad offer at all

I can't find offer at amazon, anyone got a link?

[edit] now up, and its a 2 for £16.99 again, which means they haven't hiked the prices of all their titles:

I think all the lion kings are double plays, sainsburys on has one lion king and that has the pic of a single disc but i don't think that's available alone, just in the trilogy for now, i could be wrong tho.

HMV's Are £20 Each no suprise

I am wrong lol HMV have single versions of bolt, lion king, princess and the frog, TS 1,2+3 and up

Play.com

Lion king double play £15 not in the bogof
Lion king single disc £16.99 is in the bogof

Its a joke lol
