Thumbs up

My plan: to get free DVDs from Bolt.com and return them at neighborhood DVD stores for credit or in exchange for other DVDs such as Braveheart.

Mel Gibson has filmed a director's commentary and there is a behind the scenes feature.

I was kidding. But even if I wasn't, why do you see it as being unethical? Many stores will provide customers with store credit in exchange for any item (that they have on their shelves) as long as the item is unopened and still in its original package. Please enlighten me.

yeah ugly's right.
I sense a little tightness here. Ugly didn't steal them or anything. They were free but Ugly got them legitimately through a store promotion. I'd say ugly's mentality is the whole reason why most people like you and me Bayden are here at gotapex in the first place. Nobody loses anything. The DVD store get's some other DVDs and ugly get's some credit. It's a beautiful life.

Question

So hypothetically if I bought that stupid Pokemon Battle N64 game for $29.90 shipped + $12.95 for Being John Malcavich (sp)DVD + $Matrix DVD for $9.95 = $52.80 all on first run offers from Mobshop.com, and then returned them (plus the free Top Gun DVD Mobshop accidently sent me and told me to keep) to say, Shopko w/o a receipt and they say "we cant do in-store credit for non-receipted items but we can send you a check in the mail in 7-10 business days instead" Would that be wrong?

Even if I paid $52.80 and received a check in the mail for:
$59.99 (game) + $19.99 (DVD) + $24.99 (DVD)+ $19.99 = about $125 + tax? Yeah I guess its really bad. Those hypotheticals are killer, especially when they make you over $80 in cash. But that would be wrong, seriously.
