Picked up Dead-pool Steelbook because I have decided the second one will not make the cut, I found it less than interesting compared to the first one so no need to wait for a set...

Not sure if US only or not. Essentially Dollar General is running buy one get one on their 4.95 blu Ray's, but there is a glitch that gives you half off as well.

All worth it Nic, I'm sure! :D

I recently bought the complete first season of Lethal Weapon on DVD and my wallet doesn't hurt at all as it was dirt cheap, lol

I talk a sad sack game, but most new releases I can recoup about 70% of the cost on Ebay. So it's more of a quick pain followed by relief. Lol. That and no new releases next week so it gets a break.

Dirt cheap is always good. I only saw the first 4 or 5 episodes of Lethal Weapon, but what I saw I enjoyed.

And sadly, if you would buy the same thing in the US, it would probably be half price. I would love to buy The Originals: Complete Fourth Season in BR, but it's close to 50$ in Canada (26$ in US).

Batman TAS tends to run around $90 here in the states, which is $122 CDN per the currency exchange rate if that makes you feel any better. You got a good deal. You paid around 74.50 USD.
