Assume that all of these are available to all customers unless specifically listed as member only like the Welcome Package. Also remember that any preliminary codes are just that and BN could pull it, change the details or exclusions anything prior to release so always a bit of YMMV until the final release date

That depends, if you have a BB credit card and are Elite Plus, you get 6% back.

If you have the usual Amazon Visa card and Prime you can convert it to the new 5% cash back. I would guess that many longtime Amazon customers have the Amazon Visa card; no need to fuss with getting another card.

And I do have one of those cards. So far, my spending hasn't increased too much, but then again, other stores have had more aggressive sales.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
But there's also the advantage of going into the store, being able to pick out an item that is undamaged and doesn't have a loose disc, and then leaving the store with product in hand. There's something to be said for not having to wait for a delivery to arrive.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Are we still debating the merits of physical vs online shopping? 
This is my guess. They probably have customers broken into segments, and the ones who place frequent free-shipping orders would be considered "Prime" targets. If there's no uptick there, then the point of the upcharge is lost. Other than Amazon saving some money on shipping, I suppose, but Prime has shown that that's not their biggest concern.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
When BD prices are same at Best Buy (or Target) vs Amazon. I prefer to buy at Best Buy (or Target) .
Remember if weren't for Best Buy or Target Sale - Amazon would not lower their price. It is good to keep B & M stores in business.
And yes you can pick BD with slip cover and non loose disk etc. Plus stores have other add-ons / freebies like book or toy etc

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Big thanks for that! I've been hovering over the 'buy button' on a $50.27 order for a couple of days now -- including the limited edition TRAILER TRAUMA 3 at $22.91 and MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER VOL. II at $18.67 (new low), as well as a book -- hoping the prices wouldn't go back up before I decided to bite, but that discount made it much easier. Appears to be one-use only, by the way.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I had bought the Parks/Rec complete series on DVD a few weeks ago when it was temporarily out of stock. Since it still hadn't shipped, I cancelled that order. Reordered it now at the same price which made it a lot easier to reach the $50 point.

Although, I believe it will be cheaper during Barnes & Noble's half off Criterion sale.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
That's an excellent set. I got it for $50 in 2011, listed at $53 with a $3 Gold Box discount (remember those?). That may give some pricing perspective over the last Not a loser in the bunch. Even Head is worth watching for the weird factor.

Although it's indicated it will ship anywhere from 1 to 2 months [it was a Lightning Deal earlier in the week, believe it was going for $44.99], WB's Special Effects Collection is priced at $32.04.
Consists of:

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
BBS Story -- may be my all time favorite Criterion Boxset.
For those outside KY and NY who pay sales tax at Amazon you may consider waiting for the expected Criterion.com flash sale which should be coming up in the next week or so (most likely date 2/28 or 3/7) it should be 62.49 which qualifies for FS.

Re: Amazon discounts and deals on Blu-ray
Anyway, I realized I had a ton of accumulated Amazon money from prior gift cards. Accumulated because I can rarely create an order over $50 for free shipping anymore. So I went for this box set to burn some of that balance off.
