Didn't see this posted elsewhere and felt it was a good enough deal it deserved it's own thread (not just lumped into the $20 off $50 thread)
Looks like Buy.com has SNL Season 1 for $50. With the $20 off $50 using Google Checkout, looks like a cool $30 shipped! :-)

Although I am sympathetic to the trials and tribulations of a student, wait until you have a job, get married and have kids. Then you'll see what busy is. :) Here you go.

still kind of expensive, if it becomes less than $20 then I may bite

$30 is too expensive for 24 90-minute episodes (36 hours)?! (plus extras!)
Wow.
Cheers to the OP though, a nice deal indeed. I'll see if I can resist my impatience to take advantage...

I was going to pick this up at Target tonight, but this is a much better deal and worth the wait for it to arrive in the mail. Thanks OP!

This release includes no music replacement or deletions. I hope all those who complain about music replacement get behind this release.

That is a great deal. I ordered mine. I noticed that buy.com had raised their price to $61 on this title yesterday, and at that point it looked like it'd be cheaper at DVD Planet with the $10 off Google checkout coupon. I'm glad I checked it again this morning.

Good deal. I was also going to pass on this set as I already had the 25 years of music set and all the "best of" sets, but for $30, I will get this inaugural season. (I mean, it's not like one day there will be a giant 31 Season SNL Box Set for cheaper, right?)

Oh really? Such as?
This shall affect my decision!
(additionally, I, too, want The Compleat Al on DVD! what a great mockumentary...thing. Whatever you can call that...)

Nice catch...I'd be in on this one, except I think I can get it cheaper from Columbia House. Yesterday I saw that CH had it for $41.97. If it counts as 2 obligations, then it is only $2 more expensive than buying 2 DVDs at the $20 minimum price to count as an obligation. If the membership average is $7 (including all enrollment selections & obligations), that means SNL would be $16 + shipping & taxes...which should still make it around $26 (I think). Since I would have to pay nearly $5 in tax for the Buy.com deal (tax is added before Google discount), Buy.com price (for me) would be almost $35. Also, CH keeps doing these B1G1 free deals, so I could take at least one free DVD by ordering through them (most recently, I got Superman II SE, Mutiny on the Bounty SE, Forbidden Planet SE, & Double Indemnity SE as free selections when fulfilling 2 accounts). If only they'd had this last week when they offered free shipping on everything including box sets, i'd be a no-brainer.
Just thought I'd mention this for other CH members who need to fulfill an account. You might want to do the math & see if this would be an attractive option to the (admittedly good) Buy.com deal. At any rate, this set is a must-have...twenty-four 90-minute episodes of classic comedy...what a deal!
