  3. Depends on who is having the best sale at the time.
    Office Max, Office Depot, Best Buy.
    Wal-Mart is down to $11.96 for a 5 pack of Maxell +R's in pretty jewel cases!
    Just what is this reality thing anyway?

    Um, I hate to nitpick but shouldn't it be:

    tgpo, The DVD Fairy

    Unless you live by an ocean, lake or fjord then I guess it would be ok.

    Online Stores - Buy the hundred spindles.

    Meritline, Supermedia Store, Shop4Tech, etc. I tend to plan ahead. BestBuy is a big rip off.

    I've yet to buy any media online. I still prefer to actually have the disks in front of me as I shop around.

    I wonder what the breakdown is from DVD+R and DVD-R. I can pretty much guarantee the buying trends for +R are more store-driven, while the -R are more online-driven sales.
    I'm not online anymore. Ask BALDRICK, LORDSMURF or SATSTORM for help. PM's are ignored.

    I haven't bought any media on-line yet. However if/when I purchase a dvd burner I think that on-line will be far cheaper than any of our local stores can deliver (at least for a while anyway)

    I would probably save money if I bought media online, but haven't yet. Usually I run out and need discs quickly so I just go to Best Buy. If I get ambitious I'll find online store to buy media.

  16. I buy all my computer stuff including media online.

    UNLESS there is a great sale at a store. I've gotten CDR CDRW for free in 50 and 100 packs from circuit city and Best Buy several times after rebate
    Well maybe not free, I did lose on the sales tax and 32 cents for postage, har har, for 100 16x disks that burned at 32x just fine in my 52x burner!

    Sometimes I luck out and can get a great deal on a larger retail Hard drive from Best buy than I can buy oem online for. SOmetimes with and sometimes without having to mess with a rebate.

    My problem is I live in the boonies, about 150 mile to any major store (other than wallmart) like Best buy. So I don't have much choice anyway but to buy online for major pc stuff.

    I know that feeling!

    I buy all my media from tgpo the DVD Fairy and charge it on his credit card.
