This bonus disc gave me reason enough to not see the movie in theaters. There was nothing on the disc that pushed me over the edge from "maybe wanting to see it" to actually shelling out the cash and time to see it.

If you've got a headache and someone offers you 20 asprin, you don't take them all. You leave some for others. It's being considerate of others.

At the Best Buys near me, the bonus discs are available on the tables with the movies. Obviously there's an understanding of trust and logic that suggest that you only need one per person.

What's done is done, though. Next time you should be a little more considerate. If not denying more freebies than you need, use common courtesy to make up for someone else's obvious lack of reason, and take ONE or TWO to be fair. You denied others of something, and now this character on eBay is just karma's way of saying "Hi!".

Yeah, and that "hi" karma managed to help me with ebay's VeRO program.

Then if Im an opportunist (coming from you) does it mean you become a jealous consumer since you were not given a chance to come across with such dimwitted BB employee?

I gotta kinda admit that I am. I mean, I've been shopping at best buy for years and every cashier I've come across usually has no idea when a bonus disc is supposed to be given out or just about anything in terms of "free gifts" are concerned. The fact that you came across that person and they had the wherewithal to realize you were entitled a bonus disc for each and every one of the movies you just purchased, kinda makes me very very jealous. :lol:

Jealous because I didn't get an unedumacated retail employee or 20 free bonus discs? Well, in my pawn shop ventures..I got Tool's "Salival" CD/DVD for $10 a piece and made $100 off of them, the time I got the PuppetMaster DVD set for $35 and made $250, or even when I snagged "Panther" for $4 and got $85 for it. Did I mention my FREE copy of "47 Ronin Parts 1 & 2"?

Jealous? Damn right I am. Opportunist? In every sense of the word, but what sets us apart is that everyone else had their chance to obtain what was being offered whereas you didn't allow it.

You summarized up your jealousy by giving a non related "opportunity" point you are trying to state. No one ask, Maybe others care, yet what are you trying to prove? awwww... Oh well.. I'm off to use my $5 off coupon for WM22
