I realize this is something that most around here don't even want to think about around here... I normally don't either... but I knew I had a lot given to me this year so I was curios...

I REALLY need to thank a lot of generous friends that I have... for 2012 alone...

Well, I'm sure everyone will agree that you've had quite enough generosity. I think you're friends should spread the love around a bit!!

Saved: 56%

£3,214.84 ($5,222.35) spent in 2012, third most spent so far, behind 2011 and 2010.

Average paid was £7.47 ($12.13), the 6th highest (or if you prefer the 5th lowest).  Considering I’m now buying lots more Blu-ray discs than I ever have before and I've now bought most of the older (cheaper) stuff I want, I’m quite pleased with this.  My ‘rule’ of not paying more than £9 for a DVD or £11 for a Blu-ray disc is paying off I think.  (Box sets and imports have slightly different ‘rules’.)

No idea what ‘saving’ that represents, as a lot don’t have a SRP/RRP; the latter feels like a totally pointless bit of marketing.  Quite a lot were bought with discount vouchers and other cashbacks too, I’d estimate about £600-£700.

Where do people buy their DVDs?  For me 67% come from amazon.co.uk (or 70% if I include ones from amazon.com).  I feel kind of guilty about this, as Amazon is a bit too good at what it does, to the determent of all its competitors; and it’s also too good at exploiting the British tax system so is presently the subject of a boycott call, although that's a bit like trying to boycott air.  But I know each time I buy a DVD from Amazon a butterfly dies somewhere.
