I ran into BestBuy last night to pick up U2's How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb CD as a "stocking stuffer" for my son. I was a bit surprised at the $19.99 price tag, but figured BB had jacked the price up for the holiday season. Oh well, I pick up the jewel box off the rack and head off to the check-out counter.... The cashier looks at it and says "we have the plain CD for $13 if you'd rather have it". Huh? I check the package closer and it's a 2-disc set - the CD and the DVD! "Cool" I say as I pay for it and leave.
Now is this something common, or is it something new? I suppose it wouldn't have been as much of a surprise if it had come in a DVD case, but being in a standard 2-CD jewel box it came as something of a shock. Comments?
