Reason #897 Why I Love Costco

I saved $60 with great coupons including a buy one get one free on Electrasol dishwasher tabs.
And the biggest reason today?
These two finds:




















Total for both BBC DVD Collections: $36 ($18 each) - more than half the cost of the collections sold elsewhere. I am so excited to own these excellent classics!
The Jane Austen Collection has Sense & Sensibility, Emma, Persuasion, Mansfield Park, Pride & Prejudice, and Northanger Abbey. The Elizabeth Gaskell collection has Wives & Daughters, Cranford, and North & South. I have had the latter set recommended to me several times but have yet to watch it - I can't wait!

Oh my gosh! I may need to borrow the second set. I just saw an ad (on the new BBC version of Emma) for Cranford and it looked phenomenal. And, I'm thrilled you found the old BBC versions. I'm in love with their new attempts, and have the Emma (2009), and hope to shortly get the Sense & Sensibility (2008) and Persuasion (2007). If you haven't seen the new ones, you must. They are beautiful! I'm watching them for my summer class!

I do watch the PBS Masterpieces sometimes, Brooke! I love them - I especially like when they do Agatha Christie. :)

Lana & Heather you can borrow them any time! I've been watching some of the new ones that I dvr'd. They are so good!
