The 2013 Aussie/Kiwi 'Post Your Black Friday Haul' thread! - Blu-ray Forum

So folks, Black Friday sales have come and gone and Cyber Monday's just about sorted. Now that the bank accounts have been drained and the credit cards (if you've got one) have been maxed out it's time to post your haul. Yes, some of you will have to acknowledge what you've spent rather than living in denial. Hey, it's good to face up to things.

Here's my pretty staggering but mostly planned haul. Although there are quite a few blind buys most were in my wishlist and only a few were impulse buys based on the combination of my interest and the price. Very happy with the prices and extremely happy to have scored some titles I've wanted to check out and/or buy for a long time.

Movies:

Terminator
Stand Off
Margaret
French Connection
Dark Skies
Invasion of the Body Snatchers
WarGames
Maniac
Lords of Salem
Now You See Me
21 Jump Street
Say Anything…
World War Z
Bourne Legacy
Sinister
Se7en/Copycat/Taking Lives
RoboCop
Upside Down 3D
MacGruber
After Earth
Thor: The Dark World 3D
R.I.P.D.
Turbo
Snitch
Machete Kills
RoboCop
Insidious Chapter 2
Hollow Man/Hollow Man 2
Mental
True Romance
Little Mermaid
Epic

TOTAL including shipping: US$409.53 - AU$447.87

35 titles. Price per title: AU$12.79. Very nice considering Thor: The Dark World 3D, Insidious 2 and Machete Kills are full priced pre-orders. Taking their AU$97 out in makes it AU$10.96 a title. I've also got two orders for RoboCop remastered in there as there are two Amazon listings. Once we find out what the difference is I'll decide what I keep.

Television Seasons:

Justified: Season Three
Arrow: Season 1
Spartacus: War of the Damned
Hannibal Season 1
Boardwalk Empire: Season 3

TOTAL including shipping: US$83.82 - AU$91.63

5 seasons. Price per season: AU$18.33. Absolute bargain. JB's price for all of the above WITH their 20% off (and missing additional DVD copies and digital copies in a lot of them): $156.70. Saved $65.07 on JB prices or 41.5% off.

Definitely a big spend but I'm very happy with the buys and they're great prices all round.
