... try your nearest Hollywood Video.
HV uses security cases for their DVDs, but when they sell them, they transfer the disc and cover art to a regular alpha case and throw out the security case. Normally they don't use all the alpha cases at once, and keep them.
I went down and asked if I could have some of the regular alpha cases. I came out with about twenty free ones...

I went to Hollywood Video and they sent me away empty handed! First they were telling me that they didn't sell them. When they heard I wasn't buying, they were even less interested. Something about "We save all the boxes for reselling later" I know they don't save all the boxes. I think they were just being lazy and wanted to get rid of me.

No, that wasn't me. They put them in big trash bags for me.
