You know, he's saying exactly the same thing I thought, and then
figured you'd be smart enough to infer from the smart-arse reply.
Guess not.

I'll explain more fully: You don't have _any_ right to a _promotion_
cheap DVD, other than what the selling organisation grants you. The
selling organisation assumes that if one person in a household
purchases something there, they're likely to tell the other persons of
the household about the place they found, and thus they will increase
their full-price sales. You are, in effect, cheating them. I don't
think there's anything legally wrong with it (though, in the US court
system, who can tell?), but it's certainly morally wrong.
