Fun Films for Free (ok, nearly)

Well if it is cold as where you are as it is here (hint: it snowed yesterday), then it is time to hibernate with lots of movies!

Use coupon NEWMEM96 that welcomes new shoppers to FamilyVideo.com with $5.00 off any purchase of $5.00 or more. Several movies under $10.00 are available, and shipping is just 99¢. You can pre order Cars or Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest for just $11.78 each after coupon, including delivery.

Family Video also has a Steal of the Day (on the upper right on the page) which changes periodically. The Steal of the Day is currently Young Frankenstein on DVD, just in time for Halloween I guess. Priced at just $8.97, this title is just $4.98 shipped after coupon.

Thanks for the tip, Piper!

Dog Days of August

It's funny.  We spend 9 months looking forward to summer and when it finally gets here, it's too hot outside to do anything.  So my children are climbing the indoor walls looking for something to do.

Then along comes a 50% off DVD deal for kids movies from Amazon.  There are some good titles from the Wiggles, Angelina Ballerina, Bob the Builder and Barney (not sure who still like the purple guy, but I guess there are takers).

If mom and dad would like to stock up on their DVD collection, here's a selection of movies also at 50% off including: The Constant Gardener, Schindler's List, The Bourne Supremacy and The Blues Brothers.   Can't find any you like on sale?  They are also running a 4 for the price of 3 deal on most titles (buy four, pay for the 3 most expensive and get the last one 'free').  And shipping is FREE when you spend $25, which isn't very hard to do at Amazon!

Hey, you can always watch 'em in the DVD player of your SUV when the kids are at soccer practice!
