On Tuesday, got "Miracle of the Cards" at Wal-Mart's $5.50 bin. Later, went to a dollar store and got their cheap DVDs: "Mr. and Mrs. North" (3 episodes on a DVD), "Tales from Tomorrow" (3 episodes on a DVD), and the 1939 "Gulliver's Travels".

On Wednesday, bought "Streets of Laredo" and "Clue" with that 2 for $22 sale at SunCoast and Sam Goody. Then got "Big Business" at Best Buy for $5.99

Yesterday my Jonathan Creek Series 3 and 4 and the Xmas Specials boxset arrived, and today I got the Adam and Joe DVD

The Adam and Joe DVD rocks! I was disappointed when I found out it was only a "Best of" for all 4 series, but it seems to have everything memorable on it, and is packed with extras! There's even a commentary for the commentary selection menu! It runs for about 5 minutes! :lol:

"Some people say people are getting pretentious and putting commentaries on DVDs that aren't needed, but for me, this is like going to Menu Design school, so everyone can learn something."

Let Adam and Joe explain what their DVD is themselves "It's like Bo Selecta only not as good and without the rubber masks. We use toys instead".

OK, went and bought another Woody Allen Collection, which included (in addition to Annie Hall and Love & Death, which I already have)
- Bananas
- Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex *(*but were afraid to ask)
- Manhattan
- Interiors
- Sleeper

Although I has two in the box, it was on sale so it worked out at just under $10 US per disc, so I was pretty happy.

Wheeee! After over a week of being on backorder, our Most Haunted Series 2 pt 1 DVD arrived today. That's another 5 hours of poor Yvette being scared out of her tiny little mind. Bless her. She only does it for science!

I understand the haunted disused prison in London was the most conclusive (and terrifying!) exploration they have ever done. I can't wait to see it!
