Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part V
yes that's correct. apparently some people were interpreting it as you could get one of the 19.95 sets as a freebie with the purchase of another 19.95 set.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part V
The set price deal worked with the 801490. That is. If I bought a set at $19.95, I got a FREE DVD (pay the shipping on the freebie, not on the set as shipping was included).
So that is a bogo deal to me.
If you needed to fulfill. Buy 2 sets, get 2 dvds free and pay the shipping on the freebies. Not the best deal, but not the worst either.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part V
Maybe you guys can help me. I'm using the $19.95 box set deal to activate the B1G1 from 801490. So far so good. The problem is that I can't get any of the special editions that also appear in the separate sitewide B1G1 SE deal ("Spectacular Special Edition 2 For 1") to come up as free with the box set as the qualifier. I've tried every imaginable combination in terms of in what order I add things to my cart, and every other standard trick in the book. Is anyone out there able to make this work in a test scenario? The SEs are titles that would normally qualify as the free ones on a B1G1 (the 2-disc Quantum of Solace, for example), but the separate sitewide deal seems to be killing it off (since entering a code doesn't get rid of the SSE2F1).
Any thoughts? Thanks!

For the uninitiated - WOD = Wheel of Deals
Just tried 1746 & it doesn't appear to work exactly as "advertised". It is doing the opposite - b2g1. Maybe in next day or so? It expires 4/19.

If the code is still active Saturday morning when my paycheck clears, I plan on getting Revolutionary Road, Slumdog Millionaire and Milk.

Actually bog2, even paying shipping is better than the usual bogo w/free shipping. Of course, the bog2 w/free shipping is outstanding, not worth the risk/wait for myself to fulfill.
It is BEST to use 2 pre-releases as your 2 fulfillfments!
bog2: Using 22.95 titles
22.95 +
2.99 shipping for 1st
1.99 shipping for 2nd
1.99 shipping for 3rd
Total=29.92 /3= 9.97 each
26.92 for $19.95 title=8.97eac
To fulfill:
22.95x2=45.9
2.99 1st
1.99x5 for rest=9.95
total=58.84/6=9.80ea
@ $19.95=8.80ea
bogo w/free ship:
22.95/2=11.47 each
19.95/2=9.97 each
Fulfill:
45.90/4=$11.47each
or
@$19.95=9.97 each

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part V
This keeps happening to me.

EDIT- I finally got a combo to work. It doesn't want to let me use The Mist for some reason.
Edit Number 2- You can not use any of the Special Editions from the current 2 for 1 sale for this code.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part V
No go for blu ray only. I tried a few times until I read the details:
Blu-Ray Titles can act as a qualifier, but can not go as your FREE selection.
I will just be waiting until the next B1G1 blu ray special comes along. I have a list of blu titles I would like to have....
Thanks for the codes!!

But that's not much difference, and if there are titles you want now its a great deal. Personally I found the deal good enough to not care about the per/disc average and use it anyway, especially since I used two of the 19.95 sets on sale with free shipping.

**From a previous post by Cheato**
Regular DVD club membership:
Enrollment:
6 x 49¢ + $9.95 = $12.89 (7 DVDs)
Fulfillment using BOGOF with free shipping:
$19.95 + (free DVD) + $19.95 + (free DVD) + (free shipping) = $39.90 (4 DVDs)
Total cost of membership:
$12.89 + $39.90 = $52.79 (11 DVDs)
Average cost of DVDs purchased:
$52.79/11 = ~$4.80
****
Your extra selection cost you $6.97 which is $2.17 more than it should for *each* of your fulfillments. While the overall effect does not raise the average too much it *still* raises the average... by ~.33/selection (including the extra 2 selections). The best way to use this code would be to get one of the $19.95 sets that has free shipping. That way the imputed cost of the extra selection is only $4.98, only $.18 more than a selection is worth on a maximized account.
On an already fulfilled account the B1G2 code used to purchase a $19.95 set w/free shipping is the same cost as an optimized TVonDVD account with a set for $15.33 and the selections at $4.80/each.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part V
I meant for the current offer.
If free shipping was in play, bog2 would def. be the best deal. Subract the $12.94 for shipping. Total then is $45.90. Add in your enrollments of $12.89=$58.79/13=$4.52 That's for $22.95 titles. IF you chose 2 $19.95 titles it would be $4.06 each.
But, IF IF IF...
However, with the current deals at hand, bog2 wins.
