  • There's not much time left for this discount but just a word of warning. I believe that in most cases CDs and DVDs are already discounted from the full price with Borders so don't count.

    The last time this was available, I tried to buy various things but in all cases it was pointed out that the price on the sticker wasn't the RRP so are considered already discounted.

    I'd say that books are a safe bet though, they have the price printed on or in them usually so can't be excluded unless in a promotion.
