Free Shipping on 3?

Hey. Is anyone else getting the free shipping on 3 when you get to checkout? I discovered that this morning. You may want to check your accounts out.

I noticed that this morning, it was showing free shipping in the "Your deals"? section that appears in the right column when you're just browsing around. So, I added some stuff to my cart and got free shipping. Then I logged into the webdvd link and fulfilled my account.

Good start to a new week:
Monday-nice sunny day and a fulfilled account.
This past weekend-rainy and crappy, second in a row. Figures, friggin' NE!

Yeah, I'm thinking about going ahead and fulfilling one of my accounts too.

I was hoping a boxset would count as more than one item, but they only count as one. I want to get that Hitchcock signature set which is showing up as 59.99 in my cart. With the $5 off and adding two 5.95 sale titles it would come to just over $70. Thats not too bad?

People who fullfill for 2 commitments should always remember that it makes better sense to get free shipping with a cheapo sub $10 3rd DVD, rather than pay $4 shipping.

Most(all?) $14.95 titles show up at only $5.95 each with the "up to 60% off" thing still going on. All perfect candidates for the 3rd item to get free shipping. I picked up Manhattan.

Is there a code to get that "up to 60% off"?

I did this morning. I fulfilled a new account with Team America and Phantom of the Opera, both as pre-orders, got the $5.00 Web discount, and I ordered Addams Family Values (50% off!) as my 3rd movie to get free S&H. The total was $42.90.

I don't know of a code,I thought it was a 1-week only special that applies to everyone. It just shows up on my account. I got an email about it too, but all the links are generic, I can't make anything out of them.

It ends today though,May 2nd.

I have a 1 week old account I just used free shipping on to fulfill it. Thanks to the OP.

Then again, the shady way CH has been doing business lately leads me to suspect they will just add shipping charges to my CC a few weeks from now anyway.

oh my god - columbia house is horrible - i just checked my online account info - and they totally screwed up my order - the prices are not even close to why i checked out with - they ignored the second title being used as a fufillment title, and applied the 10% wrong - what a disaster... on the phone w/them now fixing this stupid crap.

I swear to god - if i werent addicted to DVDs - i'd end my relationship with this company.

Fargo: SE is a steal for $6 (in terms of free shipping and what not) if you use it as your third item.

Yes and no. The 60% off when you buy one sale (making Fargo $5.95) is over, yesterday was the final day. However, on a fulfilled account that I have, Fargo is $7.48 and it's $8.95 on an unfulfilled account.

Free Shipping end date?

Does anyone know how long free shipping will be for? I looked up the info on the website but it didn't have an end date for the free shipping promotion. Also, did anyone else who got those e-mails with the $10 off first web order try to use it lately?
