Free DVD’s, well, um, kind of
I just checked my mail…that is, snail mail…at my Library. Anyway, I got my usual assortment of book catalogs and magazine renewal warnings. Along with all that was a catalog from Learning Media of America with “Free DVDs” written in big letters. I think these are the same people who normally send Fax SPAM, so apparently giving stuff away for free has been somewhat profitable for them.
The Las Vegas-based company will send you all kinds of educational DVDs at no cost…just $5.95 for shipping and handling…and here comes the catch…PER DVD! Now, think about it. Let’s suppose I want 10 DVDs. Does it really cost $60 to ship 10 DVDs? If there are any postal workers reading this, feel free to comment and enlighten us.
Oh, and by the way, commenting on my blog is free, but it costs $5.95 for web hosting…per click.

Same thing..I usually get these either by fax and now by mail. The titles seem interesting, but free no way! Still this is a very good price for an educational DVD, has anyone ever ordered from this company. I would love to know if the DVD’s are of good quality.
