Fun Cash - Is my logic right here?
Ok, so with a triple fun cash code on a fulfilled account at CH.com, you get $6 for each dvd purchased.
They have tons of dvd under $6, some under $3. Isnt that basically getting these dvd for free? I mean, I can use the funcash for box sets, etc. And then you throw in free shipping.

Yes. However, keep in mind that you won't be able to pay for box sets with just Funcash, and if you were to buy a regular DVD, the Funcash would apply to the regular price, not the sale price.
By the way, what DVDs are you finding that are under $3?

Funcash use is limited for boxsets. Plenty of threads on this.
You always pay full shipping on funcash orders, NO free shipping, ever.
With a new membership, you'll average $5-7 per dvd. Paying $20 for a dvd just to get $6 funcash is a terrible deal.

Ancient Warriors - $2.97
There are several more. Keep in mind I am looking on CH.com. Click on the $10 and under link.
IIRC, DVDs bought for under $5 do not qualify for Fun Cash.

From CH.com FunCash details:
FunCash is applied against an item's regular club price, with the exception of multi-unit sets (3 or more discs) where FunCash can be applied to the already discounted price (special club price). (Please note: FunCash cannot be applied to tax, if applicable, or to shipping and processing charges.)
