How do you fund your blu-ray purchases/addiction?

[Rich65]

Set funds aside from my paycheck and if it's something I can wait for, will wait for the price to go down.

I work, plain and simple. What doesn't go to bills fuels my film/alcohol addiction and occasionally I take my fiancée out for a good night.

I set aside a specific amount of $ from my paychecks, used only for blu-ray deals that are absolutey worth it. New release must-haves/limited edition exclusives: $17.99-$19.99. Recent releases: $9.99-$12.99 (U&S helps too). Catalog titles: $4.99-$7.99.

When I'm not saving up with my own money, I ALWAYS ask for gift cards for holidays/birthdays (BBY, Amazon). Those help me out during U&S and the Black Friday week tremendously.

Lastly, Shopkick! Get it, use it, love it!

It's better to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission.....plus the cost of her ring equals a whole lot of blurays, so.....

I sold the wife. Haven't sold the kids...... Yet.

Contract Killing, mostly.

The paycheck from my remedial job and during the school year, I splurge when I get excess student loan money. I've only got $3,200 remaining on my auto loan, and once I have my car paid off I'm pretty sure I won't be saving that $275 I was throwing down on my monthly payment. It's not smart, but hey...

With money

I try to find the best deals. And then with older titles I snap them up when they hit 10 bucks or less.

Prostitution. It's worth it.

Shop Kick & Viggle. When I run out of both, I pay cash, which I get from working. I hate those moments. Sometimes I sell movies I no longer want on eBay.

Very similar with my buying habit

Love Shopkick, too bad they stopped doing gift card for bestbuy
I got around $700 worth of blu-ray from shopkick so far

I only buy new releases if they have exclusives. And wait for sale to go under $10 for rest.

I don't have kids yet, don't smoke, and hardly ever drink anymore.(These saves really lot of money)
I budget myself to $100 per month and usually pretty good about it unless there is some great deals like U&S or Black Friday.

I'm pretty good at finding deals, I've picked up some really good titles from local pawn shops for around 3-5 each. For new releases I swear by the Moviestop trade 2 get one deal. I do pick up a lot of blind buys that way, but in the case of a title like Beautiful creatures, I bought it blind. I hated it. Had only about 6-8$ in the cost. Traded back to Moviestop for $15 in store credit. Kept the UV copy in case anyone else in the family wants to see it.

I've got a ton of movies from closing blockbuster videos, where I've funded most of that small cost by selling off some of my haul ( titles that sell for a decent amount)... I follow a philosophy of buying for value with most things, including blu rays. Wanted the James Dean set, so bought it off amazon UK like I did with the Hitchcock collection and other sets. I just spent a few hundred on some really nice clothes from a big sale at a local department store, with prices that were 75-85% off original price, plus 10% off that total... I made out very well as the prices were less than what I pay for lesser clearance items from places like target. With family around, I don't spend as freely, or take weekend trips like I once did

How do you guys fund your blu-ray movie purchases? Do you budget? Cut back on partying/alcoholism? Live in a box? Eat ramen every night? Or just straight up ballin Walter White style? Just wondering

I myself do a little bit of all of the above mentioned. Also selling off my DVDs to offset costs of blu-rays.

Thanks for your time!

I'm a male prostitute. Very beautiful women pay enormous amounts of money just to be with me.
