Here's their list of Free Shipping by Brand. Perhaps someone with a bit more time than I currently have can scour the list and come up with something "el cheapo" that will give you free shipping.

In the first column of the list provided, nothing seems to be available for less than $10. Anyone care to check the second and third?

Their last big sale left a lot of buyers with a bitter taste in their mouths. Tons of cancelled orders, looooong wait times before shipping, etc. With the order I placed last time, I did get all the titles I ordered (about 6) but only after a very long wait for shipping. My advice is to order early if you find titles you want and be patient.

These are pretty much the same titles included in the DDD sales a couple of weeks ago. The prices were very similar as well.

I meant the free shipping item columns, not the prices of the DVDs.

IIRC, the Repair Master extended warranties used to knock the shipping down to zero. Alas, the two I've been able to find both have shipping charges now. Guess J&R either found that loophole, or they knew about it and the deal has changed now.

Didn't there used to be some form of goofy lanyard as well that came with free shipping?

I was one of those unfortunate people who got screwed over in their last sale. Had problems with cancelled items which messed up my Google Checkout coupon. If you're thinking of buying from them with any $10 Google checkout coupons, my advice for you is don't. Save it for some other store that accepts it.

Also remember you free shipping item might ship first and you still have a long wait for the dvds which ships via usps post...

i used the warranty free ship item got that quickly but never got around to the dvds had to finally cancel the order since it was taking so long out of stock etc...
