CompUSA $5 DVD sale
I noticed in the paper today that CompUSA is offering a bunch of titles for $5 each. Seems like it is online too.

EDIT: Yikes! Most are N/A or "sold out". Might be better off going to the store.

No, you're not alone. CompUSA is the undisputed king of "bait and switch" sale pricing on DVD's. Always have been.

I dont know if this sale is over but I ordered Kelly's Heroes and Empire of the Sun for $4.99 each and they tried to charge me $7.99. I showed the clerk the printout and he was very cool about it. Just watch for the price bump folks.

Nice deals...did you notice that the Chicken Little dvd is selling for only $321.06? http://www.compusa.com/products/prod...37182&pfp=cat3
Shipping is free though, so I guess that 'hot' deal just got a little hotter.
Oops...Chanster beat me to it. Too quick!
