How did you get the additional 20% off? Are you factoring in the buy four get one free deal? Is that deal every day now? The store I was in last week said it was just Thurs and Fri only.

Not all discs are $19. All of the discs I bought ultimately cost less than $8, except for the double-disc one, which was maybe 9 bucks. At least at the Foggy Bottom store, it's 40% off, and then an additional %20 off, which made everything fall into the range of $6-$8 each. [/b]

This is at the FG store, and they had hand-written signs around saying all rock CDs were an additional 20% off, and the cashier confirmed it.
 And the buy four/get one deal is no more; it was just this weekend. I wish it would've still been going.

Or the long look down the nose at your insipid musical taste from the pierced, tattooed, purple -haired staff.

Did the extra 20% off appear to be a one day thing, or do you think it will continue? That might make it worth my time...

My guess is that it will be ongoing, at least beyond today. I don't have much to base that on though, just my suspicion since they're trying to move this stuff out.

And I'm guessing that the extra 20% off is after the 40% is applied, making the overall discount 52%? Check yr receipt.

That was the case when I got an extra 15% on top of 30% (meaning the total savings was less than 45%...I'm too lazy to do the exact math.)

I bought some cds this morning at the Foggy Bottom store.  The total discount came out to 58% off.  Average price I ended up paying per cd was $7.   :cool:   Pickins are starting to get slim though so I'd head on over there and see what you can salvage.

Rockville is also doing the extra 20% off rock/pop cds.  Rap/hip-hop is 70% off. dvds are 40% off - no extra 20% on those.
 
 They seem to be restocking occasionally.  The shelves below the regular racks have been replenished a bit.  There are still a few surprises to be found if you dig around.

What about country, world and jazz? Are they still just 40% total?

I didn't look at those sections.
