Go for the +R DVDs. They give outstanding burn quality on my Benq, 2 necs a liteon and even my BTC. Must order online to get free pix. 99 cents shipping.

here

My only question is do you have to order the pix at the same time or do you do that after you order?
Either way its a decent deal just for the high quality disks the pix makes it hot.
Share and enjoy :D

Not the same items in the BB online ad and the one in the techbargain link.

BB online has 8X DVD, techbargain link shows 16X. No mention of free prints on either link. Anyone do this with in-store pickup today?

I went to BB and bought 2 of the +R. When I got to the register, one of the managers came over and told the cashier to give me a price adjustment from $14.99 down to $7.99 to match the ad price. I didn't say anything bc I thought she was confusing the price with the CD-R's which are in the sunday ad for $7.99. So, I walked out with two +Rs for $7.99 each.

Whe I got home and looked at the ad, there is a picture of the Verbatim DVD+R spindle but a written description for 50 pack CD-R. It's on the back page of the circular. Maybe they are writing down the price bc of a mistaken picture in the ad?

I was wondering if anyone else had the same experience.

Wow. I didn't notice that. Will try the price adjustment tomorrow. Best to go in
on a week day, especially on a Monday or Tuesday when all the reps seem to be "hungover." We'll see...nice catch!

Would not budge on that issue.
Still OOS online.

I guess it's a matter of interpretation and, of course, their interpretation trumps mine. The way I read it, you have to order the 100 free prints online (with a credit card and a $.99 shipping fee), not the disks. Maybe you're supposed to get a promotional gift card with the disks.

According to a post over at FW "free prints comes bundled in the DVD/CD pack, and its is from winkflash. It is not offered separetly by BB. It is offered by verbatim.
So not every pack has this offer. They had to dish one out for me from the back (none had it in the shelved ones)."

If so, you might want to get them in-store to insure that your spindle has the offer.

My store had about 50 spindles. Not a single one had any indication of an offer on them....not that they would sell them in store at $14.99.

Got two 50's DVD+R, (with the "free prints offer" 100 digital photos on each) OTD for $17.67 after I pointed out the picture on the last page of the ad. At first the checkout girl wanted to charge me the $14.99 each because the ad was wrong, but I asked her to check with the computer manager, who said to give me the $7.99 each, it was their error. No shouting, no yelling, calm and simple. She even was nice enough to ask me if I wanted to get two more at that $7.99 price! Should have, but I was greedy enough for one day. Even if I hadn't gotten them to give me the lower price, would have bought them anyway. These discs are tops. But 17 cents a disc makes the deal much better. Should last me for a few months.

BTW, my BB had a table with dozens of spindles with the "free prints", both DVD+-R and the CD-R's. As far as the eye could see. Plenty. Don't know why so short at other BB's.

I picked some up at my local store. Inside the DVD package is a coupon code for winkflash. http://www.winkflash.com/promos/verbatim/

Limit one coupon per household. Looks like I'll give the second code to a friend.
