It's listed right on the homepage. It's also listed after you click the Now Featuring link.

Rollover "Browse By Category" on the top left. Click on the "Now Featuring" link under the "Explore and Save" heading. I'd post the link, but I don't have 30 or more posts yet so I get denied LOL!

There are some dvds at 65% off, blu-rays at 60% off and sets at 50% off although not a huge selection. I only found it, because I happened to add Dirty Dozen to my cart and noticed something about a "dads and grads" promotion.

Yeah I know, it's sad! I was away for awhile and you guys are always too quick for me anyway. Every time I have something to post someone has already beat me to the punch.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part VI

Blu rays are supposed to work, but sets don't seem to act as qualifiers, at least not with other higher priced blurays. The Lethal Weapon set and Streetcar Named Desire combo didn't result in SND going for free.

I added a bunch of blu-rays and they do not work with this. It's for dvd's only.

Well, then CH's fine print in the email is bogus. It says Blu rays are included in the deal.

Obviously, the deal lacks clarity with its print. But, I didnt think it was a great deal anyway. So whatever.

CH continues to treat Blu-ray as a premium, protected category, as if it were 2007.

I understand the fine print in the email as B1G1 DVDs only but double points on DVD or bluray.

That's how I read it too

FREE DVD when you buy 1 at regular Club price plus Double Bonus Points on DVDs & Blu-rays is valid for a limited time only!

Guess I read it wrong. Hah well. Makes the deal even less attractive than it already wasn't.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part VI

any chance we could see the complete Friends series on Blu? Might not be a bad bonus point pickup, but I can only imagine how expensive shipping would be.

^Screw Friends, I'm hoping they get the Hitchcock set. They should carry this with it being Universal, correct?

Also, did anyone else get an email today about bonus points expiring? We do have until the end of the year don't we?

^Ditto.

I felt it was a email intended to scare those who don't know the true "expiration" date into spending what they have and then get them to buy more.

Yep. McAfee does the same thing to get people to renew their annual virus scan subscriptions six months early.

To those that are uninformed, the "scare" tactic works like a charm.

Worse yet, I used my points towards a pre-order (Jaws BR in August). Should I be scared into using them now (while waiting for my pre-order) CH will charge me full price when the pre-order ships more than a month later. I may not even realize I essentially bought another title.

The free fandango tickets expire June 30. I think that's the bigger problem that I have. I may book a bunch of advance tickets as they go a month out.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part VI

If it's any consolation g, I never got my fandango tix, but they were more than happy to charge the price I paid for those plus the two DVDs, and two polite emails didn't give me any satisfaction. While irksome and unfair, I decided that $10 worth of changes wasn't worth messing with, even tho I likely could have returned them without incident.

Yeah they actually cancelled the tickets out of half my orders. I thought of returning them but I was gonna get something with the bonus points anyway.

Re: Columbia House Sale Offer Codes, Part VI

I returned two items where the tickets were canceled, because they were shipped separately. I kept 4 items were the tickets were canceled, since the bonus points were decent. I ended up with only 6 of the Fandango tickets, and have used 4 of them so far. I'll use the other two on Saturday....
