124596
474596
934596
and all would be the exact same offer...
I haven't done much testing of late but I would say from past experience you can eliminate the first two digits as they are merely wildcards/versions of the same code. So whoever wants to enter in codes should really be looking at numbers xx0000 through xx9999... Have fun! ;-)

As someone else said, the first two digits don't matter. For instance, 361050 or 221050 gets you the same exact deal as 801050.
When speed-entering codes looking for an active one, I always use 44 as the first two numbers because it's fastest for me to type on the number keyboard (I knew those months as a data entry temp would pay off some time
). So just use whatever's easiest for you, and then you can change the first two to 80 if you want for simplicity's sake.
BTW, I've been checking mostly in the xx6000's in my spare time. Let you guys I know if I find anything good.

Just using code xx6118 didn't do it for me. I had to switch back and forth between xx6117, 006118, xx6119. For the moment I've got 3 DVDs (2 fulfillments and one sale price to get free shipping) in the cart with $26 funcash showing. Right now my total order with $5 off webdvd coupon is just under $49. It's not B1G1F but a decent alternative. Adding in the $26 funcash I'll have to spend on another DVD, this account (used code LMT to sign up) would net me 11 DVDs for just under $62, or around $5.62 per/dvd
I think I'm going to place the order... just hope I don't get screwed on the funcash!

Sorry, I meant 006117 was giving me $20 in additional funcash. It appears that you have to spend $35 to get the extra funcash.

Yup, I doublechecked and re-tested the order and xx6117 is indeed the one that gives you $20 funcash. Good code if you need to order your fulfillments -- provided CH doesn't take away the funcash *fingers crossed*

I just tried code 006118. When you purchase more than $35.00 it seems to give you $6.00 per title in funcash. The only drawback is most of the Keep it simples and the 2/$18 don't work. The titles that work ar ethe ones that were recently deal of the day items. Check out my recent order and my Funcash I got for it.

I just tried tried 006118 and 006117 with a few box sets to play around. If you place both dukes of hazards in your cart you get 36.00 in funcash or if you add ray, shrek 2, and shark tale to your cart you get 51.00, but substitute ray with spongebob you only get 39.00.

Yeah 54.00 is the most I have been able to get with 3 titles. I am still trying different combos though. The Star Trek sets seem to get about 30.00 ea. in funcash also. the north and the south set gives you 54.00 on its own.

U know what? I cant believe Im doing this, but for $54 funcash, Im gonna order those 3 DVD's. Its an average of $14.64 , but $54 is a TON of funcash.. its like getting 2 boxed sets for free.

I feel like Ive just been suckered. I cant straighten the sense of it all in my head. I payed $46 for 3 new releases and got $54 in funcash. So that would be sortve like 2 free titles down the road w/shipping. So for arguments sake, i paid $46 for 5 DVD's (3+2 w/funcash) is like a $9 average. Think I made a boo-boo hahaa Oh well. Its more decent if I get a boxed set or two, I'll probably do that.
