In reference to the thread below, but starting a new thread: Where do I buy UV codes online? -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Jul 9, 15:18 16
- cheapassgamer forums, and someplace else (david, whats that name?) - tRuMaN Jul 9, 15:25 14

    - How do those prices compare to VUDU? -- nm - Bacon Jul 9, 15:30 10
      - Well, you're paying full price at Vudu (usually $13.99-$19.99). - David Jul 9, 15:33 2
        
        Thx for the advice. Sure, if it's withing a buck of owning vs. seeing for the first time rental I will just buy it. -- nm - Bacon Jul 9, 15:34 1
        
        yeah, new movies from good sellers usually costs around $5-$6, movies a few weeks old drop to $3-4, months old usually drop to around $2-$3. -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 9, 15:34
      - vudu.com? probably about 50% cheaper i think. -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 9, 15:31 6
        
        Wow, I am going to start shopping there! That's amazing -- nm - Bacon Jul 9, 15:32 5
        
        well, i think, hold on i will give you examples -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 9, 15:32 4

        That's to own it? -- nm - Bacon Jul 9, 15:34 2
        
        Yep. That's my point. $4-5 for the UV code. The box was appealing because it had UV for each movie, but I don't need all 50. I just want some UVs. -- nm - Mop (190 lbs) Jul 9, 15:40
        
        yes. as much as you own anything with the UV collection system -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 9, 15:35

    - I wouldn't know since I didn't catch anything - zork Jul 9, 15:19 3

        it was a very stable one and very convenient since it was inflatable. -- nm - zork Jul 9, 15:23 1

hirsute poll: more annoying type of body hair -- nose or ear? -- nm - charlie Jul 9, 14:49 6
