hi, are you looking for blanks or pre-recorded? moswt dollar stores aren't going to have a website where you can purchase from, because they are keeping down overhead and costs. thanks

stoogedog, i'm looking for pre-recorded stuff, but cheap.
and yeah you're right the $ stores don't do website orders. hell, some don't even have a search facility.

can anyone suggest a site/store that is above $, but below say walmart?

i'm going to try and use yahho directory to find cd/dvd places in the meantime.

cheers people.

we have by us all the ones LS mentioned, but we also have valuecity
and there is a unique place online I found..
www.secondspin.com

I have ordered from them about 15-20 times.

Great quality always as described.
Unlike other places, they combine hsipping- and always have a dollar bin.

I picked up the entire plaent of the apes set, 99 cents each dvd,

Never gotten a bootleg or anything that didn't work.

http://www.secondspin.com/

And even cooler, they BUY from you as well
so you can trade IN and get new stuff
