Future Shop: Extra Cheap Blurays - Price Error

A bunch of the blurays on sale for Boxing Week also qualify for a previous 2 for $20 promotion. I think all the movies were originally $12.99, making 2 for $20 a deal. But rather than just bumping the prices to $20, it removes $5.98 for every two qualifying movies in the cart. So if you buy two $6.99 movies, the total is $8.00 and you get one of the movies for $1.01. Qualifying titles can be found at the link. Some are sold out, but there's some pretty cool ones. Found it by mistake when looking at Time Bandits and Salt, ended up ordering a few. They're all various prices, some didn't go on sale, others did.

Qualifying Selection:
http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/category ... promo.aspx (make sure you select the 2 for $20 tab)

EDIT: Now appears to be dead after a site update.

the deal is that in the 2 for 20$ section, the movies used to all be 13$. When you bought 2, they removed 6$ from the total. Now some of them have been reduced, but they still subtract 6$. So if you bought 2x7$ movies, it would be 14$-6$ = 8$ for two movies.

I think the site is updating and fixing the problem, so it will likely be dead very soon.
