deals on film - post here!

I went to Target this weekend and they had Kodak Max 400 pack of 4 (3 rolls of 24 exp and 1 roll of 36 exp) for $2.48. The expiration date is not till Feb. of 2009 so there's still plenty of life in them if you store them correctly. They also had single Fuji (100 something I forgot) rolls of 12 exp for 24 cents, expiration date is not till April of 2011. I already shot a roll of the Kodak and had it developed and printed, its good film for the price.
 
from the looks of it yes...the film developing area at my store is bare, I think they're in the process of putting in new equipment for digital printing. I price scanned their stock of Fuji film and they were all regular price. Who knows maybe in a few months they'll be on clearance too.
 
The Walgreens around here are all upgrading their printing equipment. They're still processing enough film so the girl looked relieved when I said "no hurry, I'll pick it up late tomorrow". There were dozens of processed rolls hanging and waiting to be printed.

$15 a roll of 36 Exposures sounds Terrible ! When I first read through your note, I thought you meant the 100 ft. roll ! :bang:

i only posted it because i thought more people were looking for it these days. i seem to remember it going for more than this on e*ay in recent months.
i agree it is not much of a deal though. is there a better place to have posted it?

By the time I went to the local Target store today, they had no film on sale. In fact, the sales person told me she could not recall having any film on sale recently. Maybe the sales are not binding to all Target branches.

Raid, I think you are right, the Target stores in my
area told me the same story. 🙁 The store I visited
didn't even have any single rolls of anything, just a
few multi-packs of Fuji and very few Kodak. No
100 speed anything.

It depends on the location. Several Target stores in southern California still have consumer grade Kodak and Fuji film.

My local Woolworths (supermarket) looks like it's off-loading its last film stock. A box of 8 rolls of Fuji Superia Extra (400 asa) for $3.45 AUD.
I don't use this speed at all but I bought a box and am considering getting the remaining three boxes.
 
This may have already been mentioned, but Arista Premium at freestylephoto is a very good deal. Premium 400 is A LOT like Tri-x -- in fact, some believe that it IS rebranded Tri-X. If so, $1.99/roll would be an excellent deal. Premium 100 at $1.89 sounds like great del as well.

I shoot Premium 400 a lot these days, and develop them using the dev times for Tri-X.

That's a great price - under $0.45/roll!! My woolies had 3-packs of the same film for $12.95/$10.95 on special.

I will go have another look - they just renovated, installing people-less automagic checkouts (even takes cash and gives change, with a machine!). Perhaps there is a shelf somewhere with lines they are no longer selling.
