Everyone loves a good seasonal discount, but I have a feeling we’ll be seeing some insane discounts this particular holiday season, especially when it comes to DVDs. Case in point: If you’re one of the seven people who don’t currently own The Dark Knight](http://www.moviefone.com/movie/the-dark-knight/27016/main) on DVD, make sure to head over to Target because they’ll be selling the film – which was released in 2008, mind you – with a bargain-basement price tag of $3.99. The move comes not long after it was announced that Target, Walmart and Amazon were at war with one another – hacking and slashing their DVD prices in an attempt to win the most holiday shoppers. While all three retailers were originally planning to sell popular upcoming titles like* Star Trek, Night at the Museum 2* and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince for only $10, Target has now upped the ante by offering The Dark Knight for a measly $3.99 … and, reportedly, the Blu-ray for $12.99.

Other 2008 films Target plans to sell for $3.99 include Sex and the City and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Personally, I can’t wait to see how far these guys go while trying to one up the other. If Target will sell The Dark Knight for $3.99, will Walmart give it to you for two bucks? Or maybe Amazon will send a Batman and Joker performer to your house to re-enact the entire film live in person for, like, a dollar? That’d be cool.

Definitely keep your eyes peeled on some of these deep DVD discounts and let us know what the best buys are in the comments section.
