DISNEY pushes up the price of 2 disc Sec. Ed

The last time I bought a 2 disc Special Ed. DVD was last week. It was KING KONG and it cost $19.88 at Wal-Mart.
TOday I went to Wal-Mart to buy the new CHRONICLES OF NARNIA 2 DVD set. I was stunned to see the price of $27 and some change! I eventually bought it at Circuit City for $24.99. Which is still $5 more than I thought I would have to pay. You used to be able to buy a double disc DVD for about $20. It looks like Disney is trying to push up the price of these sets. I hope they aren't starting a trend.

Disney did the same thing way back in 2001 with The Emperor's New Groove.
The only thing that makes this trend "new" is that Disney stopped doing it
for a while.
