At HH Gregg all day Friday they have a $39 VCR or/and a $39 DVD player after $20 rebate. If they run out of the advertised model, they will sell you the next best model for the same price. They also have a 2.4 ghz cordless phone for $9.94 after $10 rebate.

You beat me to it. This one is probably only good in the Midwest, and appears to be an outstanding B&M PM possibility for the Circuit City AD-1200 to in order to get back another $11. No pesky "Oh, it's out of stock" from CC can apply here with HHGregg's in-stock guarantee.
Note that CC has AD1200s, AD1201s and (most important for me) the flashable/Macrovision disableable AD1500s for sale this morning at $49 (they all ring as AD1200s) ... PM to HHGregg, and the deal is
49.99 (CC) - (10*110%PM=11) = 38.99
provided, of course, that CC will match an after rebate price. I've never tried that, but allegedly CC will.
Curiously, HHGregg also has a "double the difference" guarantee which is:
"Your purchase is price protected if purchased through one of our retail locations. If within thirty days after your purchase (14 days for computers, notebooks, printers and monitors) you find a lower price from a competitor's local store (within a thirty-mile radius) on the same in-stock brand and model, available with a manufacturer's warranty in a factory-sealed box, we'll refund you double the difference between their price and ours. To claim your refund, simply bring in your original H.H. Gregg receipt and proof of the lower price. Our "Double the Difference" price guarantee does not apply when the competitor's price includes free or bonus offers, financing, delivery, installation or rebate offers, nor on one-of-a-kind or limited offers, internet pricing or products purchased on-line. "
Which means you walk in at 1030AM, and try and PM the other way to CC, and with the DVDs probably already gone at CC, they don't do the match. Maybe, tho, you get lucky ...
Now, if you're bound and determined to do this at HHGregg, the order of the day would appear to go as _late_ as possible in order to harvest the very best DVD they have available.
