So this can't be combined with the current free shipping offer?

To get the 6-digit code you need to click on the link in your e-mail and once the page starts loading STOP it so you get a blank page. In Internet Explorer your page will say "Action canceled." Look in the address bar for the six-digit number after "onlineStr=" and that is the 6-digit code needed to get this deal. The 6-digit code usually starts with "80" followed by 4 more numbers. Please post back with that code if you can.

edit: ok, doesn't seem to be just that, none of em are coming up at club price.

A huge thanks! Just got Million Dollar Baby, Aviator and Team America Unrated for $37.00. I used the $5 web coupon and Team America counted as the free selection. I have found that preorders that are being released in the next couple of weeks will count as the free selection. I am now fulfilled.

I just checked this code out. I accidently put 2 back to the futures in my cart. Even though it charges you the full price, it will give you the extra set free. I just checked this with the La Femme Nikita dvd sets. These more expensive sets will also work, but it will charge you the list price (ex 99.95). Plus you can get two free items, if you are ordering 2 at list price.

This code is jacked up. I can't get a set over $40 to count for 2, no matter what I add, it just wants to count it as 1 commitment. But it seems to say that in the details. So Baby James, How did you fulfill your account? And with some titles, it wants to charge me full retail, ie $62 for the Rocky set.

Seems like you can do some other things with this code as well.

Awesome! Thanks so much for that code! I just fulfilled 5 accounts!

For clarification, it is not just buy one get one free. It is get one free for every one that you buy at regular price (with each one at regular price counting towards your commitment) as Emma mentioned earlier.

Such a bargain with the free shipping and $5 webdvd deal... I am so happy.

Why are people getting 3 DVDs with this offer? Wouldn't you get a total of 4 DVDs with buy 1 get 1 free? Is there a limit of only one free DVD?

No, there's not (as I just explained and Emma explained before that), although those guys may not have realized it.

Couple of points about this...

Despite what it says, it is giving sets for free as well as inidividual DVDs. That is the good news. However, you will be charged the full price for the initial item....not the special club price. So a set that is $49.95 showing a special club price of $37.46 will show a charge of $44.95...which is $49.95 less the $5.00 first purchase discount. If you then choose a second item with the same pricing structure you will get it for free. The third one would be at $49.95 since there is no additional $5 discount...and then the 4th one would be for free.

This essentially works out to 50% off (plus an additional $5 off) for these sets...which is obviously better than the 40% off set sales that come up regularly.

Fulfilled one account so far with:
  • Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Volume Two
  • Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Volume Three FREE
  • Legend Ultimate Edition
  • American Pie 2 Collector's Edition (Unrated) FREE
Total=$33.82

Total Savings this order=$62.90
Average DVD Price=$3.48!!
Total Funcash=$9.00

I've got no interest at ALL in American Pie 2, but it didn't add one cent onto my total so I figured what the heck.

Last edited by abe; 05-07-05 at 12:58 PM. Reason: Forgot to mention that for some reason this order counted as 2 fulfillments

Thanks much for the code! :-)

Too bad I just fulfilled an open account 3 days ago :-(

I wonder if I can get a new account opened before this code gets yanked??

Thanks for sharing Redrum... you are going to make a lot of people happy!

Oh well. I didn't want to pay the full price for Legend anyways.

I'll re-use the code on another account and do four.

The only problem with that are the commitments--sets that should be for 2 or 3 are being marked down to 1. Still a nice deal if you know how to use it.
