Carded

At my age? I was just asked for my birth date (note: not just the year) so that I could purchase THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS at Target. Sent them a polite nastygram to their Feedback address when I got back to my desk, too, believe me. None of their business how much older than 17 I am, and I have no desire to have my birthdate attached to my purchasing records or my Visa card number in their files.

With a loss-leader movie like MR, I like to shop around for the best price. We bought our copy at Strawberries, which had it for $19.99 and then a $10 rebate. No carding, good customer service, and we ended up buying several more (used) DVDs and CDs for cheap.

We watched it last night, as we missed it in the theaters thanks to Z. Quite satisfying!

$15.99 at Target, but we'll see if it's the last time.

Which Strawberries? I've been bereft since Newbury Comics closed their Woburn location.

The Strawberries on Mem Drive. I picked up D from work and we also went to Micro Center and Trader Joe's, so Z traveled in his baby backpack and had a good time.
