I usually only get 2 dvd's/boxsets at a time.

I got 10 from the MGM sale at DVDEmpire earlier this year, but that month I ended up spending tons of money (I sold an uber-expensive guitar amp so I had money layin around) and got nearly 100 DVDs that month...sheesh.

The most I ever get is 2 season box sets at a time, usually's been a combo of Stargate with Babylon 5 or Babylon 5 with Highlander/Xena/Hercules. Movies wise, I've bought in the neighborhood of 2-5 at any given time. Uusally all if they're in the $10 range or less. I bought all of the Lethal Weapon films at once. Bought a bunch of Steven Seagal films at once, 5 or 6 I believe. Overall, I try to keep my DVD buying to less than $200 a month.

last week with an import order, on-line and local retail combined...I snagged a total of 22 dvds. that was my biggest week in about 4 months. I usually stick to my 10-per-week rule...but sometimes things get out of hand. how much I spent is forgotten a few days after my sprees...unless I have to dig up receipts. all depends on how much my daily tips are.

The most i've bought was that 20% off DDD coupon....had two orders, spent about $350 on 3-4 box sets and about 12 other titles.
Other than that, my biggest purchase was probably about 5-6 dvds at one time (try to keep my buying under control).

I tend to buy fewer at B&M stores because I'm more conscious of the spending.
The most I ever received in a single package at one time was 12 from DDD, but that was because they combined three orders (of varying sizes).
It was like Christmas that day. Took me six and a half hours just to remove the security stickers.

25-30.... Back in the summer of 2002, Virgin had a double sale where they had "Vital Titles" on sale for 25% off, then they had a $25 off of $100 coupon. Add them together and you end up with 44% off. It turned out that about 2/3 of the Criterion that they carried were marked as Vital Titles. So, I went down, grabbed piles of discs and kept making piles of $101 each. We must have spent $500 in a day. (The clerks were a little bit reticent about letting us do the deal and, in fact, two days later, they stopped accepting the coupons).
