There's a blooper reel that was quite funny :P

All the rest are those freebies given away with newspapers, which I've only kept in case I'm ever desperate. I have enough trouble fitting in all the films I want to see at the cinema, so when do you guys find time to watch DVDs, too?!
Come on then Ms Thrifty, don't keep us in suspense, what is your one dvd?
I've now got hundreds of dvds but that's nothing to the number of videos I owned back in the day. Now I'm considering moving to blu ray but as I'm married with kids, these days I just can't justify the cost.
I was tempted by Blue Ray but decided my eyes won't notice the difference. RE videos and DVD, I threw away most of my videos or gave them to charity. I was really brutal especially with the stuff I'd taped off the TV. over time I've replaced a lot of them, as there's always bargains to be had with old programmes vx
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks

yeah Harry Potter was only £7.00 at Sainsubury's, I got the last one in the shop 8-)

I find that I usually order them from Amazon who are pretty cheap or I get them in from the USA if I really can't wait.

What TV shows did you get? vx
I got Friends, True Blood, Gossip Girl Season 2 (my guilty pleasure) and The OC Complete Series (I used to love it and my mum got really cheap) I have the most random choice in tv shows. Edit - I forgot i got The Inbetweeners S1&2 as well.

Yeah i got HP really cheap too £6.71 from Asda. x

I got How I Met your Mother season 1 on dvd, cant believe i didnt catch this programme before, its been out for 5 years! Too funny, i'd actually rate it in the same league as Friends, hopefully they will release the other seasons on dvd, as i cant keep up with the E4 showings!

Should try The Big Bang Theory. I don't have it on DVD and always miss it on E4, but it's really very good!

Christmas is long gone now but what the hell, I laughed my head off at the Michael Macinytre and Russell Brand DVDs I got - well worth watching :)
