This is awesome! I am really excited, I can finally finish off my animated classics collection!! I will be able to get The Aristocats, Melody Time, & Make Mine Music for less than $15! Then I will have all the animated classics on DVD that have been released on the format so far!

I know how you feel with the proof of purchases swray, I just haven't been able to actually cut mine up tho, it would bother me to know end!

Yeah, I'd like to know where this Monsters, Inc. discount can be found (no Costco here).

MMP, I don't think they are going OOP, but that this is just a temporary sales gimmick for Disney.

Well the May ones are no longer listed by Disney, so perhaps that was changed at some point in the last three months. I've never seen a store that reprices for the temporary price reductions, but I think that generally Wal-Mart may? Maybe Target?

The June 1 price drops are still listed, so hopefully those will still be in effect, even if these two Pixar ones are not.
