that's pretty vague... maybe some of the recent MGM/UA Best Picture collections? Like this or this?

The clues usually are very vague. Have to wait until it's release to see what this one is, no point trying to guess.

It's obviously the "Porky's" franchise pack!

Not really. This one is more vague than usual. People frequently guess the film based on the clue. They'd be very lucky to guess this one correctly.

Some movies featuring tomato-based condiments?

A horror collection?

Here's a suggestion - how about we start waiting until the deal is actually live? Wait until we know what is on sale, that way it can be put in the title of the post.

I started it earlier to remind people. Some people might only check the site once a day maybe in the morning before the deal is released.. if they are interested in the clue they can make a note to check back at the specified time. If you only post the deal when it is released there is only a 4 hour window or maybe less if it gets sold out and people may miss the deal.

This is the first lightning deal thread I started all the other ones were started by punit in a similar format.

Yep, I like them being posted early. It's fun to guess what it may be, plus the reasons given above.

A mod can always change the title if someone asks.

Thanks OP.

This is a great deal, I was considering this as part of the DD sale but even with 20% off it'd be 32.75.

Correct! That's the point. Agreed that Lightning Deal hasn't been that much of a lightning so far but an earlier posted thread prepares you just in case.

Good deal today btw. I forgot today to post because of the recent daylight saving and my maths has changed for next 6 months.

100%. Damn. That was fast. The only other LD I remember that went this fast was the OZ Collection or the Sergio Leone Collection (can't remember if that was a LD or not though).
