Just bought 5 of the Dr who disks with Tom Baker in,the most recent out isn't discounted yet.They were £12.99 from MVC,yes they are available a bit cheaper online but her in doors is starting to whinge at my online buying.
Also bought Esquire magazine,a ghastly advert rag but it did have a copy of the Ipcress File on the front.4 quid not too bad and I haven't seen it.Only just started to appreciate films such as Get Cater recently.

What is M-Lock BTW?

I picked up Redemtion's Nude For Satan from Music Zone for £5.97 today.

mowie · 13-03-2005, 04:25 PM

M lock is a dvd case about the width of 2 amaray cases that holds 6 or 7 discs. Much better for space problems.

There's a new shop that's opened up in Solihull where once stood the Virgin store. The name escapes me (it's something like Gopps).

Anyways, I picked up:

SOMEONE TO WATCH OVER ME (Ridley Scott) - £1

SCENES FROM A MARRIAGE (Tartan) - £3

HENRY PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER (Optimum) - £3

CHAMPION (Premier Asia 2-DVD Set) - £6

A SHORT FILM ABOUT LOVE (Artificial Eye) - £10

A SHORT FILM ABOUT KILLING (Artificial Eye) - £10

MAN OF THE YEAR (Optimum)- £10

This shop easily beats the sky high prices of that Silver store further up the shopping centre.

There's a new shop that's opened up in Solihull where once stood the Virgin store. The name escapes me (it's something like Gopps).

It's called FOPP and it's probably the best place for cheap DVDs in Solihull, they have lots of bargains and change them quite often. First time I went in there I picked up the deleted DVD of APOLLO 13 for £5.

**Grant** · 13-03-2005, 09:17 PM

Fopp have some good bargains but they swap them about all the time, so keep em peeled!

Yes, it's on Queen Street, just down from the Post Office.

BTW, when in Notts check out the pound shop just behind the council house. Every week they have different vids from 20th C. Fox for just a pound. Last week I picked up Men Of Honour and One Hour Photo, but I've picked up more in the past - Spiderman, The Deep End, Planet Of The Apes ('the re-imagining'), plenty more that I can't remember. I'm off into town tomorrow to see what new stuff they have.

**zanner** · 14-03-2005, 11:14 AM

...the pound shop you refer to is poundland @ the back of the council house, which i frequent...
