    Lately though I've found that a lot of the things I depended on
    Wal-Mart to have, they have even cheaper at "Big Lots."

    Big Lots gets its inventory from other retailers whom have discontinued the items..

    However they do it, I like it.

    When I can get 50 blank DVD's for $10, it's good.

    Depends on the brand (and actual maker). If you get 50 good DVDs from that spindle then you have an effective price of 20c per DVD. If you buy Dynex (Best Buy's house brand) at $8.99/spindle and 20% are coasters after failing to burn properly (which has happened to me) your effective price is 25c per DVD, not counting your time and the frustration and wear and tear on your nerves. Sometimes bargains aren't Bv)=

    Not to mention that if you use Dynex DVDs anyone who knows anything about the subject will know, automatically, that you are a chaepskate MF.

    ENJOY!!!

    These are Memorex DVD's.

    I bought a spindle of Memorex CD's there yesterday, same price.

    People already know I'm a cheapskate anyway! <G>
