Free DVD when you buy 1 online at regular price

I do not see an expiration date, but all of my CH accounts have a free DVD when you buy 1 at regular price offer. Choose from over 100 titles in Action Hits, Enduring Classics, Comedy Riots, Essential Dramas, Family Favorites, Extreme Suspense. I think all of the available titles are enrollment selections.

I doubt I will order anything, but this could be helpful if you need to fulfil an account.

Has anyone figured this one out yet? I tried it on a new unfulfilled account & seemed to get it to work. But when I added a 3rd+ title, it changed the "free" title to my normal offer & I couldn't get it to work after that. I hadn't tried again w/that account yet.

As usual, a great offer that doesnt worked. I tried it with the Anchorman Gift Set and then the Conan Collection as my regularly priced items, used The Matrix Revolutions as my free item (it was on the linked page). In my cart through the last screen before your order is confirmed, it still has TMR as the sale price.

I got it to work...fufilled an account with 2 $19.95 DVDs, two free ones, free shipping and $5 web discount. Yee-ha! The catch is this: both the regularly priced DVD and the free one have to be off of the list. The details state: "Buy any movie in these shops and get another FREE (look for the discount in your cart)!"

One I saw that everything worked smoothly. What a deal! (If you can find 4 movies you wnat from the list that is.) Brought my average for this enrollment to $5.29/DVD! (I have to pay tax.)

I got it to work also, like videophile said both of your DVD selections have to be on the list.

I called yesterday to fulfill with 6 DVD's for $50 and they offered me this deal on the phone. I ended up getting Troy for $19.95 (probably would have bought it at BB anyway) and he told me I could have any DVD priced at $19.95 or under for free. I ended up getting The Game.

Okay, so I see the 19 titles they've got listed under the B1G1 free "specialty shop", but how do I know what the other 81 applicable titles are?

EDIT Okay, I guess I got it now, I go to "more in these shops..." and those are the ones that work for the B1G1 free

I got this to work as well. Great deal. My average would have been the same as videophile but I went ahead and added 3 14.95 titles for the 3 for 25 deal. My average for the 13 DVDs (6 enroll/7 fulfill) was only $6.30 with tax.

Now to use that $12 fun cash before the 31st.

Please check out the "Better code thread" at the top of the forum for the best enrollment codes. Sale offer codes vary by account and are not transferrable.

I didn't really notice this deal until a little late after I already ordered 3 for $25 so I tried to phone in and get Mean Streets: SE with Cool Hand Luke for my free title so I could get free shipping with the other 3 that was not a completed order yet. Needless to say I have had to call 2 times today to get this straightened out but hopefully it works out in the end.

I can't seem to get it to work right when I try to combine with any titles off the list.

So I guess I'll have to go with 4 off the list. Too bad, I would like to get some more for ~$10 but it's not working for me.

I got an online code that allows you to pick ANY two $19.95 titles(excluding preorders) for $20. This will also count as one towards commitment. The code is 801319.

i can't get this to work on line for some reason,i added resident evil for full price but the other 2 are only 40%off, not 2 for 20, so i guess hell with it and wait till it becomes an enrollment.

I just tested out the code and it works. Pre-orders & titles above $19.95 aren't eligible.

Thanks Sweet.

It's all screwed up. It should work with items over $20 and give you the lower priced DVD for free, but it doesn't.

You can only use items priced $19.95 to get the discount, and no pre-orders. Plenty to chose from.

I fulfilled with Top Gun, Iron Giant, Wild at Heart and Foreign Correspondent. There have been a good number of $19.95 titles that have come down the pike in recent months.

Ah, that sucks I didn't think you could get anymore than what they were advertising in the special shops in the Get Free page, I really wanted to get Wild at Heart with Mean Streets: SE on the site but it wasn't working but Cool Hand Luke was so I called in getting Cool Hand Luke instead. That is unfortunate, oh well.

I couldn't get a good variation of this to work with the titles I wanted online,so I called it in today. I mentioned I was having trouble getting the B1G1 to work correctly online. Keep in mind that lately it's been quite common to get B1G1 specials when fulfilling on the phone anyway, so this deal may be a bit of an overlap. She also mentioned that the free dvds could not be new releases (in other words, not available for enrollment), so I could have presumably gotten $21.95 titles, although I didn't try; I already had some $19.95 titles picked out. I also asked for the $5 off first time web order, and she gave it to me.

I got:
3142106 Dracula: The Legacy Collection $20.21
3142205 Frankenstein: The Legacy Collection $20.21
2648103 The Animal $5.95
2636900 Barry Lyndon $FREE
3348703 Christine (Special Edition) $FREE
--------
$46.37
-5.00 ($5 off web first order)
--------
$41.37

Yep, CH screwed up again as usual.

Did this deal and it shows up as only 1 fulfillment in my account, even though it clearly showed two check marks when I went to place the order.They truly suck.

Since I have problems almost every time I deal with CH I am just about done with them.

That must only be for call-ins. When I was trying online the B1G1, I could only get those titles listed to work with it - then again it could have been just a typical CH screwup in the website logic?

I know buying with the code doesn't work on pre-orders, but does the regular deal allow them? I wanted to get Raging Bull SE and Mean Streets but it's not working.

edit: Also just a heads-up, I got an email saying that the deal ends this week.
