I understand exactly what you're saying regarding places like Target. I do the same thing. That's really where the <$10 impulse buy kicks in. You've fed the bear and don't feel so bad about it because it only cost you $6 and you tell yourself that Bedazzled is really worth owning because the scene where he turns into the Colombian drug lord is really pretty funny, no really it is . . . a little help here would be nice.

I've got it so bad that now every time I go into a Dollar Tree or Dollar General store, I can't help but pick through those piles of old Black n' white-public domain- almost always junk DVDs they sell in those cardboard folders....... geeez.....

The collection has grown a bit since the pictures were taken.
You can probably add a few more hundred to the DVDs

i remember that you said that you had tons of duplicates. Since Blockbuster is having that $8 trade-in deal, I think that you should be able to trade in a couple of hundred, maybe even thousand with no troubles at all.

That's what I do when I have a few bucks. I think ½ of my collection is all those DVDs. I also always look at the 2 for $11 bin at Walmart. Almost a third of my collection is from that bin. And I have a huge collection of those free DVDs I find and post in the "Bargains" forum. I will watch anything if its on DVD!

Well, not everything. When I went to Blockbuster to look at used titles, I did not pick up a copy of Gigli.

Hey what's wrong with Gigli????

Saw this w/ a friend for free at a movie theater. Afterwards she went up to people and recommanded it to teens/ 20 somethings on dates on sunday afternoon.
