B1G1 on Blu-Rays

Thought this deserved its own thread. Site-wide B1G1 on Blu-Rays. Can anyone find a code to stack with this? Could really use a free shipping or 10% off code...

I went ahead and placed an order for Transformers and Iron Man since even with shipping and tax it's cheaper than I'd be able to get them anywhere else, including in a 20% off deal at DD or DVDPlanet, or other such things.

I may hold off on placing any other orders in hopes of a free shipping code though.

Here I am with almost $1k in DVDPlanet credit and I'm still buying stuff just because it's technically "less" in terms of cost, credit not included.

A code would have been better, but I went ahead and ordered The Fall and Iron Man for $34.94.

I can't decide on whether or not to place an order. Is $17.87 a good average on a bunch of Blu-ray's I want (three of which are Pre-Order must have titles)? I mean - it's the lowest prices I've seen for any of these titles yet (with one exception on a title I could get used for around $15). I dunno what to do though. I've been averaging out at $11.50 a Blu-ray (and good titles, too) so this seems like a bit much compared to usual. I want to place an order though...

Darn you Columbia House! Where's the free shipping when you need it?

So if i dont have a membership and want to join....

Is BluRay membership a separate membership or does it fall under the same DVD club membership?

Can BluRay be used for enrollment titles?

Falls under a regular membership.
BR titles can not be had for enrollments.

After you click the banner it says so at the bottom of the page. The strange thing is that sometimes the expiration date says 9/25 and sometimes 9/27. Either way, you'd have to think a free shipping code will pop up within the next 10 days...

I didn't mind buy 2 (for an average of $17+ each) because it knocked out one of my fulfillments. I'll probably hold out for free shipping before I make my next order and the B1G1F dies.

Unless things changed, they can be picked for enrollment using a code you give when you call in. There should be a thread around here somewhere with all of the information.

Well ya, I actually started that thread. ...but the overall "deal" from that membership is not very good, and who knows if the code even still works.

Yes the Blu Ray code still works. It is BLW you have to call in too. I got it 3 blu rays for $4.99 and 3 more in 2 years. This bogo will take care of that easily.

I just threw Speed Racer and The Mist in my cart and The Mist was free despite being a pre-order. I'm tempted to grab this duo at $35. Come on CH, make with a free shipping code.
