This may not necessarily be a better deal than what's going on now. The DVD media is already on sale, and if you can get the extra 50% off coupon to work, it's around $6.50 for a 50-pack of DVDs. The 60% off sale they have in a couple of weeks will most likely only be from regular prices. So, don't let the current sale pass by hoping you'll get them cheaper later.

Is it one time use coupon? Since it is in-store only, I guess we need the print-out coupon
Received OD mailer today for the "three days only 9/21-9/23" in-store sale. Besides the 60% off All OD Brand DD, CD, and Diskette Media, there are also coupons for some other deals i.e. $20 off $100, $15 OD GC when purchasing 2 cases of HP paper, $10 OD GC when purchasing any 2 inks or toners, 50% Ativa 10-sheet cross cut shredder and 25% off OD copy.print.ship

This is wierd. I got om coupons all the time and I am not even signed up with their spam mail. I am signed up with OD and Slaples but I never got a single coupon from them.

if you purchased something with your CC then you are on their list.

This is an Office Depot Worklife Rewards (formerly Advantage program) promotion. You should get the coupons if you are a member.
BTW, the $10 gift card when purchasing 2 inks or toners excludes HP.
Also, the coupons say Valid In-Store Only, so if you didn't get them in the mail, reading this thread ain't going to help evidently.
But using a coupon in combination with a sale going on that week and coming up with a better deal, that warrants a thread. We'll have to wait and see.

Their Regular price for a spindle of 50 DVD is around $29.99 to $39.99, if taking 60% off, you do the math. I think the price right now is a lot better, $11.99 for 50 DVDs and there is a valid coupon for that, making it $6. And pray hard to get Ricohjpn R03 for +R, suck if you get Ritek.

I agree. You never know but if its a planned, straightforward sale you know it generally sucks. Right now the 11.99 is OK but there is no way in heck that they are going to take any coupon discount beyond that unless you have it in your hand around my region and they never send that type of coupon while theres a sale going on. The 20 bucks or so for 100 DVDs is around avg for a decent sale. It would be nice if they sent me a coupon to go beyond that. It happened one time in the last 5 years.
When I got my 60% off a week ago as soon as people posted the 11.99 deal I rushed to get my coupons out and found out they said Sept 21 only. I knew that meant off the full price. Ill be shocked if it isnt full price.
Now that I'm thinking about this, what I'd really love to get would be some dual-layer media. If only we could catch a sale and then use this on top of that.

What do MKM's even have to do with this deal? Of course they aren't MKM's, 'cause we ain't talkin' about Verbatims! Focus! Deal with what is in front of you, and stop making irrelevant comparisons. We know these aren't Verbatims. That's self-evident. That's not the point. At this price with a coupon, trying a spindle out might be worth it. Can someone address that?

Ritek DL's suck, that is an important comparison...trying to help those make an informed decision and not buy JUNK DL discs.
Are you talking from experience, or are you just talking out of your butt? I bought this same 25 back of OD brand Dual layer discs during the last deal for $20 and I've only had 2 bad discs so far out of the whole bunch. Maybe you're not a fan of these discs, but for the price you can't get a better deal.

2 bad disks, LOL! That is $4 lost in coasters!
Your math skills aren't that great either. Think back to elementary school.... 20/25 = $0.80/disc if there are no coasters. Assuming the average number of coasters is similar to my experience (not counting people that can't figure out how their burners work) then you have 20/23 = ~0.86/disc. If you can tell me where I can find dual layer discs for less than $1.00 I'd be pretty impressed. Until then, brush up on your math skills and get back to me.

I've burned about 75 OD brand DL DVDs without a hitch. Gonna grab a few more packs 'cause this is mad cheap.
I was able to get a 99 +R's (pack was partially ripped, so they removed 1 to put it on clearance table) for $30, used 60% off and Chicago $10 off $20 coupon on them too (even tho this isn't for tech stuff). So I was surpised when they charged me only $2! I got a bunch of these coupons left and so I should be able to get the DL's for only $6/pack.

Too bad this deal ends today. I just scored (2) 25 packs of DL in Madison, WI for $33.75 after tax and there was still 10+ packs left on the shelf. Looks like not a lot of people got in on this.
On a side note, I just burned my first DL disk last night with a single blank I had... Wow did it take long at 2.4x! I think the whole process from DVD Shrink through burning took a bit under 2 hours! That is almost real time... Oh well, I can't complain too much at only $0.68 a piece!
