Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part V

I got shipping notices for my three orders that were saying backordered and they've all switched to "processed" on the site. The only odd part is that one of the orders is only partially shipped according to the email. The thing is, neither of the unshipped items is a preorder and one of them I have another copy in a different order and it's been shipped.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part V

I got an email today that said Free Shipping on Pre-orders. This is site-wide so I am able to stack it with b1g1 code -- 801490

There are a few pre-orders that are allowing you to take for free.

^^^Not to appear ungrateful but you could have listed any pre-orders you know of that will work as freebies.

Generally speaking, the only pre-orders that will come up for free are the titles that are coming out next week. For example, The Reader can be taken as a freebie.

Anything coming out 4/28. So Bride Wars, The Uninvited, Hotel for Dogs...

Damn, I got beat. That's what I get for leaving the thread sitting there for a couple minutes before hitting reply.

Looks like The Reader is a pre-order on Blu-Ray only, so the DVD (already released) won't result in free shipping (and the Blu-Ray can't be a free title).

Blu-Ray pre-orders do receive free shipping (2 days only?), so one can buy Inkheart Blu-Ray, get a non-Blu title for free (with code 801490), and not pay shipping on the Blu-Ray.

kotu, how about you read the thread? Maybe even your last post where you asked the same thing, some of the codes still work. Most of us don't have time to post codes just for you newbs. New codes will be posted when they are discovered.

I pretty much stopped looking in that range - mostly "b1 + 50%" or "b1 + 60%" off codes - very, very little else. But I do check from time-to-time.

Someone mentioned on AVS that there was a BOGO SALE today and it included Blu-ray. I can find no such evidence of this sale. Anyone else???

I got to BOGO offers today, neither included Blu:

Hurry, this special offer is only available until April 27, 2009 at 11:59 pm EST! Pre-Orders, Boxed Sets, your Director's Selection and Blu-Ray Titles can act as a qualifier, but can not go as your FREE selection. Video games, sets, preorders, blu-ray and merchandise are not as free items under this offer. A shipping and processing fee will be added to each selection.

The thread is too long though for the average American.

If she/he keeps coming back, he/she will figure that out eventually. Anyways I hope this dry spell ends soon.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part V

they said was.

I forgot about that offer. I blocked it from my memory. I didn't check the boards during those days and I totally missed it. It happens to me all the time.

Yes, it was. I think j-bo doesn't care, though.

Cycling with B1G1FS: $4.80 per DVD
Cycling with B1G2: $5.05 per DVD

Think of it this way:
You're getting 2 more DVDs, but paying $2.99+1.99*5=$12.94 for shipping. Since each DVD in the first example is only $4.80, you're paying an extra $12.94-4.80*2 = $3.34 for the entire cycle.

Still not a bad deal, since that $3.34 is spread across 13 DVDs, but definitely not as good as a basic B1G1FS cycle.

The extra advantages this time around were based on using the special $19.95 sets as your fulfillment titles. You were saving about $1 on most of the sets to begin with (and up to $10 or more than that for a small number of them), and it allowed you to get up to $26.95 titles as freebies, instead of just $19.95 titles. So, depending on what you wanted to get, it was a great deal. And a few cents here or there to get extra DVDs without having to cycle is always kind of nice. I went through a dry spell of not getting accounts approved (and not being able to get anyone to answer on the phone enrollment line). But, I just got a phone enrollment completed last week...

I started opting for the 6:3, instead of picking up a 7th DVD for $9.95 to make it a 7:2. That gives the flexibility of taking advantage of a great deal to use as another fulfillment credit on an account instead of just getting another $4.80 DVD.
