I highly recommend Confessions of a Dangerous Mind at this price.

Many of these were $5.98 at DDD during their last Buena Vista sale. However, there are some titles that I haven't seen this cheap before such as:
Count of Monte Crisco (sic)
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Nightmare Before Christmas SE
School House Rock
Hero
Beatles: Hard Day's Night
Sweet Home Alabama
I browsed these on the 3 $5.99 DVD pages. When I selected All $5.99 DVDs there were a lot more pages so there are probably other good titles once I have time to browse the rest. $5.99 (no tax and free shipping) is right at the threshold where I start to get interested, but I already have most of the titles I want, so I'll be lucky to scrape up 3 or 4. I hope that free shipping item works when the time comes.

If you are ordering that many DVD's, place seperate orders and add that item on each order.

It looks like J&R has pulled an "Amazon" which is to raise the prices on popular items during the sale with no warning. When Amazon started its 4-for-3 sale on certain DVDs some time ago, Day of the Dead (Divimax 2-DVD) was $5.99 before discount. A little while later it went to $6.99 before discount. A few weeks later (now) it is $17.99 even though the 4-for-3 sale appears to still be on! I ended up not ordering anything from Amazon's sale because I did equally well with DDD's 20% off prices.
So it looks like J&R's sale will follow Amazon's pattern where anything too popular will go up in price, and since the J&R sale has been on for a while the prices have probably already increased on the best stuff. If there's other $5.99 stuff people want, I'd suggest ordering soon.
I won't have time to go through the other sale pages until this weekend when work is off my back, and I doubt I'll find much... especially if prices keep going up.

I just put in an order for Dirty Pretty Things and Open Range, both of which are listed as "out of stock" (I actually went to J&R in person today and bought a few others but couldn't find those.) What are the odds that they'll actually ship me these DVD's for the sale price? And, has anyone used that shipping trick successfully yet? I'm half expecting an email letting me know my order is being cancelled, or being charged a whole lot more than I agreed to pay, since they do say they reserve the right to change prices or cancel the order altogether.

If you're in the market for any of the above, get it instead of the $1.99 item and still get free shipping on your order. In my case, the 300ma universal adapter only costs me a net of $0.04 between it's cost and the free shipping savings.

At $6 bucks a pop I can wait a month. I'm in no hurry. I might be picking up some Christmas gifts too.
Now... how can I tell if a DVD is anamorphic? Is Amazon pretty reliable?
