Can someone explain the discounts/coupons/gift cards to me? I have over $350 I want to spend and want to get the best deal. I'm a member as well...

My plan goes like this:
Step 1: work out what you'll be (comfortable) spending, wither by selecting a budget or by working it out.
Step 1.a): Original Price x .5 (50%) x .9 (membership) x "coupon*" x tax = total per item
Step 2: buy giftcards in store in increments of $75 to get the $10-after-Christmas bonus.
Step 3: Consider ordering items into the store/reserving things on the shelf. (Time limited, don't order in too early - or late - or you'll miss the coupon window.)
Step 4: Wait for coupons - check e-mail, mail and DVD thread.
Step 5: BUY! Remember that not every employee will let you use more than one coupon per day/hour, so you might need to make several trips.
*There MIGHT be a great Black Friday coupon; there might not. So you'll have to test your patience for greater savings vs. the possibility of no additional coupon aa to when you plan your trip/ordering-or-reserving things.

I seem to remember the last red-dened (Studio Canal only) extra on that list was mentioned in the Criterion review, so it may be even fewer S-C ezclusive bits than listed...

Just remember that if you buy early and try to get the same titles later on at a bigger discount, you'll only have 14 days to return your first haul.

I'm not going as nuts these days (my backlog goes back several sales), but I picked up:
The Vanishing
My Darling Clementine
La dolce vita
It Happened One Night
We'll see if I go back for the Tati collection and F for Fake.

I dropped 4 big ones on the spring sale and I've barely touched any of those titles yet, so I may sit this out.
If my wife wants to go to Oak Brook mall though, I may find myself finding something at the B&N store there, it's apparently the only B&N store left in the Chicago suburbs that carries DVDs.

A $39.99 list Blu-ray will drop to $19.99, then you get 10% (1.99) off of that, so you'll see ~$17.99 as your final price. Since I'm buying more than ten, that's an immediate "free" disc just on the savings.
