Foxstore.com promotion - Save a bundle

They are running a promotion that bundles certain titles together. When you buy the bundle you save 10% on each catalog title, 20% for boxset bundles. There is a save a bundle link on the left. They also have a simpsons bundle which composes all 5 seasons and is selling for $143 bucks which isn't too bad.
There are other bundles as well.


Check it out.

Hmm lets see..

Family Guy 1 and 2
FoxStore: $60.74
Amazon: $69.48

Futurama 1, 2, 3, 4
FoxStore: $118.31
Amazon: $142.46

Those are pretty good prices! I just picked up a set of Family Guy and Futurama bundles. I guess if you are looking for boxsets, this is the place to go, plus they make great gifts! yipeeeeeeeeeee

Hmmm, let's see....in the past 2 wks i've picked up Family Guy Volumes 1 & 2 for a total of $40.76.....so yeah, that particular "bundle" price does suck.

Family Guy 1 was $17.77 in Target's Black Friday ad
Family Guy 2 is $22.99 in this weeks Target ad

I pm'd both at Wal-Mart.

damn, that is a pretty deal u got with Family Guy. I guess I could say I saved up with the Futurama Seasons 1-4, no regrets with my purchase whatsoever!

It depends on what you are looking for, they have a pretty good deal on Shield Season 1 & 2 and In Living Color Seasons 1 and 2.

compare it yourself with other retailers...

Ah, you must be new here.

In Living Color Season 1(and Shield Season 1) has been consistenly offered at other places for $15. It still is $15 I think at DVDempire. See this thread.

http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=399267

Buy.com and amazon.com ran the same sale a few weeks ago.

In Living Color Season 2 is currently $19.99 at Target, you can also PM it for an extra 10 % off the difference at some B&M stores.

Welcome to the forum and thanks.

Several recent deals make this "bundle" deal not so great. I also recently picked up:

In Living Color S1 for $14.09 from buy.com's sale
In Living Color S2 for $19.99 from this weeks Target ad (WalMart pm)
so $34.08 spent compared to Fox's "bundle" price of $52.72

The Shield S1 for $14.09 from buy.com a few wks ago
Futurama S1 for $14.09 from buy.com a few wks ago

the Simple Life 2-pack can be picked up in any Sams for $15.xx
the Dark Angel bundle is a total ripoff....i got both seasons at Sam's for $18.64 each

i just had 24 S3 delivered to my door today for $29.99....take that from the 24 bundle deal and that would have left me paying $70.77 for 24 S2....outrageous.

DonnachaOne was correct, those are some terrible prices. Fox can do better if they wanted to really move the merchandise.

I agree these aren't great prices, but come on guys, comparing it to the price on Black Friday? That seem's a little overboard. Getting The Simpsons for under $30 per season may not seem hot if you got in on the Coconuts $15 each sale, but under normal circumstances, it's not bad at all. The guy is just trying to help, cut him some slack.

EvoRacer-

Many stores like Walmart, Circuit City, and Best Buy have policies of price-matching their competitors. You bring in the ad from the competitor and they either match it or they match it plus give you 10% of the difference. This can work out to a lot. (ie: a Buffy box set on sale for $17.77 at Target recently that is marked regular price for $49.99 at Circuit City means a difference of $32.22 or a price-matched discounted price of $14.55)

$47.92 for both volumes of "Garfield and Friends" is excellent.

Too bad I already have the first one.
