OMG. I just bought something from a telemarketer.

[amnesiac]

Columbia House called me and made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Dammit.
I got a special edition X-Files DVD (movie + 6 episodes) for 89 cents, as well as a new, remastered version of The Shining for another 89 cents. $3.99 shipping.

Not a bad deal but I can't believe I stooped to that level.

Ironically, I just told a telemarketer what to go do with itself. There's no better feeling than getting off a solicitation list.

If you were going to do join the columbia house DVD club, you should have headed over to the DVD Talk forums. If you work it right, you can get DVD's for ~$9-10 each.

Actually it's
"The force has a strong influence on the weak minded."
