How long does it take for a debit card hold to drop off (Chevy Chase Bank)?

Friday evening I went on Fandango to purchase tickets for a movie. The first two times I entered my credit card information, I entered the zip code in wrong (d'oh). I finally got it right the third time and got my tickets.

I checked my bank account the next day (Saturday) and saw three charges! According to Fandango, they do a pre-authorization charge for every transaction, but if it failed, the charge would drop off.

How long should I wait before calling the bank? I figure since it's the weekend, it doesn't really count as business days...
