Sam Goody. They have X2 for $29.99 regular price. Their sale price puts it at around $24.99, I believe. That's a lot more than you can find it for at BestBuy or Circuit City.

Sounds logical about Sam Goody and Suncoast. They are owned by the same company.

I buy most of my DVDs at Wal-Mart or have a friend order them for me.

I tend to use half.com...or other used places.

I buy used movies at blockbuster. Saves a ton.

New stuff I buy at costco.

Or online.

Virgin Megastore in Union Square is almost always a few dollars more than Circuit City in Union Square, and they're right next to each other in the same building.

Buying new from Blockbuster is ridiculous. Alias season 2 was $60 there, and I got it for $45 at Target.

When I lived in Hornell, NY the only nearby place to buy movies was Wal-Mart and I don't believe they're competive with pricing DVD's. They didn't break my wallet though, so that's good.

I'd rank the places I've been (most expensive to least):

Blockbuster
Virgin Megastore
Wal-Mart
Circuit City & Best Buy (usually fairly close in price)
Target

definitely sam goody or suncoast. or anyplace that sells dvds in Nome, AK, which i think is limited to a Safeway owned grocery store.

i buy all my dvds online, unless i'm someplace with a walmart or sam's club nearby.

Around here, Suncoast and Same Goody have the most outrageous prices usually. Blockbuster as well. I buy all my DVD's from Best Buy, and sometimes Wal-Mart when they have the $5.88 DVD sales.
