I think there was a thread like this for the Xmas sale, which gave everyone a lot of good ideas for stuff to order. If there are any really good bargains to highlight, I'll update the thread periodically. Anyway, it could be a good time saver, particularly if the site gets slammed.


Refer to the Sale thread for coupon details: http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...hreadid=370248

These are apparently the working codes:
