Yes, but you will be hit with shipping fees from what others have posted.

For those who have never ordered from B&N before, use this code for 20% off:

U8K3U4A

The one I was just about to order to conincide with this sale.

Sucks.

Only the July pre-orders are 50% off. Crumb & Black Orpheus (both August releases) are not in the sale.

Looks like this is working...but does not work with AAA. Good if you are buying one item!!!!

15% off One Item for All Customers [Exp. 07/18]
* Use Barnes and Noble Coupon Code W3P3V9Y

I can perhaps afford 3 or 4 Criterion releases tomorrow. Even though I've never seen The Red Shoes, I'm also thinking of picking that up for 50% off when it comes out later this month.

Anyway, what do you think are the very best Criterions (Blus, obviously) to consider buying? Here is what I ALREADY own:

- Bottle Rocket
- Chungking Express
- Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The
- Days of Heaven
- 8 1/2
- 400 Blows, The
- Playtime
- Repulsion
- Third Man, The

***I'm looking for a combination of a great movie, high A/V quality, and preferably a good set of supplements.


Films I've Seen Once Before and Am Considering:

- Close-Up
- Gomorrah
- Man Who Fell to Earth, The (liked it well enough when i saw it, but it's the OOP status that is mainly keeping it high on my to-buy list)
- Mystery Train
- Paris, Texas
- Seventh Seal, The
- Walkabout
- Wings of Desire

Films I've Never Seen That I'm Considering:

- Last Year at Marienbad, The
- Leopard, The
- Pierrot le Fou
- Yojimbo


I've even considered renting some of these ahead of time to see how I feel about them, but I may not have time to do so unless they're available via Netflix on Demand. Anyway, any suggestions?

Does it add to the 50%? And do you know how much the shipping fees are for Canada? from what others posted?

70% off...very tempting

[kndy]

This is how things are looking via membership and AAA discount:

[horseflesh]

The War trilogy down to $36 would be nice......

[kndy]

For those who don't have AAA, here is another one that people are using:

Pierrot le Fou, Yojimbo and the English version of The Leopard are available to stream on Netflix right now.

Members of various forums reporting that they are creating multiple e-mail accounts to create a new member account , using the AAA, Library other B&N stores and then using the new member code: U8K3U4A to get the extra 20% off on top of the 10% off (store discount) and 50% off pricing.

I don't plan on trying it but for those using the AAA and their membership, the discount works out nicely.

NOTE: Another stackable code to the AAA or other book store or non-members as well for 10% off one item: R3F8L4T

[BasicGreatGuy]

Just ordered "Everlasting Moments" and "Bottle Rocket." Great prices.

[rkish]

Am I the only idiot not shopping online, not taking advantage of stacking codes (I'm not a B & N member and/or a AAA member) and merely going to the store and just getting the 50% off?

No, I'm sure there will be other "idiots" like you, rkish.

I order online and do the in-store picking, as well.

I used NetFlix streaming for as many titles as were available and attempted to rent as many of the blu-ray titles as possible.

That's what nailed a number of titles for me...

FYI...they JUST added "Everlasting Moments" to the streaming queue...this was of course after I got the rental BD from them. No matter...it's on my list and I'm glad that I got to see it first...what a great film!

Red Desert is on a "long wait" status and The Leopard is unavailable...I might take a chance with Red Desert, but had a chance to see the English version of The Leopard.
