So this is what my final order looks like:

The Bourne Supremacy [HD DVD]
Goodfellas [HD DVD]
Mallrats [HD DVD]
The Bourne Identity [HD DVD]
Heroes S1 [HD DVD]

items: $149.75
Shipping & Handling: $0.00
Promotion Applied: -$7.00
Promotion Applied: -$3.50
Promotion Applied: -$19.95

Total Before Tax: $119.30
Estimated Tax: $0.00

Damn this took me forever to figure out, ...

Only thing is, they didnt apply the 10% to the entire order, only the Heroes dvd... Guess I better call them.

I would think purchasing in 3's is the better deal.

In for one order of 3 for 2. I am spending WAY TOO MUCH this week.

I wish they broke up that list between hd and blu-ray. I hate being reminded of the very few titles I wish I could buy on HD.

Sucks I already own most of the titles I'd want on the list...

Why is it never the titles I want, instead of those I have?

Picked up 4 orders worth of HD DVD's

Casino, Shaun of the Dead, Goodfellas - $33.91
The Game, 12 Monkeys, Batman Begins - $33.91
300, The Fountain, TMNT - $47.51
Happy Gilmore, Ray, Smokey and the Bandit - $33.91

A few blind buys in here, but I figure I can trade them in if I don't like them. This is the best HD DVD deal I've gotten so far!

Thanks OP!

Thanks for the link but the promo we are all discussing is the same thing and does the buy 3 get one free also expire Sept 23rd??

PS. Amazon should explain it more clearly. With the shitload of money these people make they don't have to keep certain promos "secret" do they??

Cheers!

I cannot get this to work with any titles I put in, all of them from that list. I was going to get Shaun of the Dead, King Kong, and Mallrats, but it won't work no matter what I do.

Good point. Since the tie-in is with the purchase of an HD DVD player, I'm not sure why Blu-Ray is even included.

(I'm not trying to start anything, I'm just sayin'....)

Yeah, it's not coming up on the final summary page. It's only listing the 10% off deal.

But bizarrely, it does work for me on the Blu-rays. I just picked up Sky High, Layer Cake, and the remastered Fifth Element for $35.31 shipped.

Finally got it to work for HD DVDs by adding Blood Diamond. I guess King Kong wasn't on the list.

So that's:
Blood Diamond
Shaun of the Dead
Mallrats

All on HD DVD for $33.91.

And that does it for me.

Edit: Damn, they're already all listed as shipping soon. I wonder if Amazon did that so people wouldn't order three and then cancel two to try and keep the discount.

You are correct, King Kong isn't on the list (although an earlier post indicated it was). The included titles are only those found on the 6 pages in this link: Amazon 3 for 2 Deal
