What are the prices down to now, does anyone know?
it's now 30% off for cds/dvds. that's about where i think i'm going to start heading over and see what i can find.
Rockville is 40% off music dvds.
30% off cds, but for some reason on Tue/Wed you get an extra 10% off of cds.
Thanks guys. A field trip may be in order now.
I wish everyone would just wait for 60%. If there was an implicit agreement that everyone would wait until 60%, then we'd all get what we want, at a better savings.

Yeah, good luck with that…. Last Saturday in Rockville, all that was left of The Who was "Face Dances" and "It's Hard."
I waas at that one last week. The only Talking Heads they had left was about eight copies of '77. At least they had the best left.

>>> I feel your pain…when I went to Fairfax when everything was still just 10% off someone had cleaned out the Who section….I was going for the deluxe editions of "Live at Leeds" & "Who's Next"…….LONG gone!……
Things are definitely getting picked-over. People are starting to hide things too.

Same situation in Fairfax….still at 40% with a pretty healthy inventory overall……..
Any new discounts? I'm debating fighting Black Friday traffic to check it out.
it's been reported that there is a buy four get one free sale going on today… haven't confirmed it.

Its definitely confirmed. Was in the Weekend section of the Post today.
yup just back from the rockville tower, took the plunge for some the expensive imports i've been eyeballing… Appears to be lots to choose, whether of not any of it's worth getting. Will go back at 70% off as there are several Northern Soul and electronica collections still in the racks now that if their gone their gone no biggie.

Went to the Tower Records location in Foggy Bottom 2 days ago (ah, recalling the days of my youth!) and bought a lot of music DVDs (40%), and a few CD singles (now 70% off). Definitely good buys.

Sad to see the demise of this place, where (as mentioned above) I spent a WHOLE lot of time (and money) many years ago.

Just got back from Tower in Fairfax. They have CDs at 40% off and buy 4 get 1 free. Maybe buy 1 get 1 free is only in Rockville? Fairfax stock is starting to dwindle, but they still have a lot more than Rockville. I picked up:

Editors - The Back Room $7.79
Longwave - There's A Fire $7.79
Mates of State - Bring it Back $8.99
Lemonheads - S/T (New one) $11.39
Sonic Youth - A Thousand Leaves 5.99/Free

I guess now is the time. I really wanted to get some Johnny Cash stuff but it is pretty much gone. Weezer & U2 are completly out.

I also purchased the Big Fish DVD at Best Buy today for $2.99. Quite a day!
It's buy four get one free at Rockville too. I was there around noonish. . alot of stuff was gone, all the Sonic Youth, Pavement, etc. Lots of imports and singles left, and a lot of crap. I managed to pick up some of the stuff I missed over the course of the year, maybe my best of list will me modified. .
