buy.com $6 DVD sale - almost 200 movies ($4 w. Google checkout)
Like the title says - http://www.buy.com/retail/specialty_...86&dcaid=17686
Combine it with google checkout for $10 of $30 and it should make it 5 movies for $20 or $4 each. Not too shabby
Google checkout thread and details - http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showthread.php?t=479104
Edit: I just noticed jeffrey r had already mentioned it in the google checkout thread - http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showpost.ph...0&postcount=28
Wasn't trying to take credit for it though.

I picked up the following titles for $22.78 (You have to pay tax if you live in TN :
Parent Trap (Special Double Trouble Edition)
Unbreakable (Vista Series-Dts)
Scream (Collector's Series)
Princess of Theives
Insider
If you looking for a movie to add to your cart, I highly recommend the Insider. I rented it recently and it was one of the best movies I've seen in awhile.

Seriously, if any of these titles do interest you I'm sure you can do a quick DDD search yourself and get an idea of what they are going for elsewhere. Five Disney/Miramax titles that I checked were $6.94 at DDD, so they would be cheaper during the 20% off sale. Except that if one uses the Google discount at Buy.com, the $4 per disc price would be hard to beat.

I haven't added a CC to my google account yet, but if it takes the $30 down to $20 will it still ship for free or will I need to add another title to get it up to $26?

buy.com is a crappy store in general, and I am used to these kinds of games from them.
I will try a few things to see if I can get the free shipping to work.

"Budget Shipping", which is supposed to be free, is $3.70 for 5 titles... I tried doing it from Buy.com's checkout just to be sure it wasn't a Google bug, and it's $3.70 from there as well.

I think double disc sets cost more for shipping. I was about to place an order with the others, village, unbreakable, signs, and the recruit and shipping is $5.70 instead of $3.70. It's starting to kill the deal for me...
EDIT: I confirmed this. It is $1 more for each double disc movie. So if you are ordering 5 movies that have 2 discs in each, shipping will be $8.70. That sucks, especially since shipping was free when the sale first began...
