Thought about going through the trouble of either asking them if I can do an adjustment (which could happen given they know me and have been flexible in the past) and buy one more and get one free or buying those same titles and then returning them with my old receipt, but I don't think I'll bother.

There are some $25 titles I might get so I'll just get those and use the RZ certificate I forgot to use the last time.

If only the buy one go one free deal applied to all HD-DVDs...
I'm no rocket scientist, but buying 3 to get 2 free certainly seems like a better deal than buying 4 to get 2 free.

I see that Best Buy's B2G1 listing online limits the titles you can choose from, but there are several that I've never seen in any of their B&M stores (Out of Sight, Eternal Sunshine and Elizabeth caught my eye) and they're offering free shipping on them, as well. Curious to see if that particular aspect is around next week for the B3G2... I'll definitely go for that.

The way to save $$ on these BxGx is to choose those titles at the lowest price and make them all the same, this way you'll end up with the lowest per disc cost.

Wow, I'm pretty shocked they are going to one-up their offer only a week later....you'd have thought they would have waited at least a week between deals and maybe have the buy 3 get 2 free deal beginning January 6th or 13th....they're going to have to expect lots of people (like myself) to come back a week later and return/rebuy their movies to get two more (paying for only one more additional) by running these sales back to back...with a week or two in between sales, I'm sure a bunch of "average" consumers would never take much notice to go back and increase their deals (meaning not people like us who check dvd deals forums incessantly!)....
I'll happily take 5 for $75 over 3 for $50 anyday...$15 per disc over $16.67 sounds like a winner to me....

I'd prefer B8G12. After all, BB didn't get me anything for Christmas yet, so that would be a nice gift!

Indeed. I'd also expect Amazon to get on B1G1 Gravy Train, as they will probably open up their next sale to many more titles than before. I'm in a holding patter for that one.
