Take the DVDs whenever you can gettem at that price. But, a 50 spindle of CDs
at U$10 ain't quite the bargain that 50 DVDs at that price would be. I wonder
what a staple item like Memorex DVD is doing in a remainder store. Life remains
strange.  Bv)=
 
I regularly see major brand CDs at Office Depot/Staples/Office Max at under
U$10/spindle.

Well, you can be a cheapskate without being cheap. I tell people that I am
frugal. A cheap person won't tip the waitron.
