Fortunately for us fitness DVDs are not real popular. Generally they have been on the shelves long enough that I have bought them at 50% off. Only one I listed above was at full price of $2.99.

Our dvds just dropped from $4.99 to $2.99 a few months ago. I never purchased unless they were half price. They rarely have fitness dvds anyway. I snagged Tony's 10 min Trainer and a few pilates/Firm dvds over the years but otherwise nothing particularly memorable. I have had better luck with equipment (brand new Malibu Pilates chair, TWO new TRX sets, pilates box and pole, Transfirmer, full size club step, Total Gym with all accessories etc).

My Goodwill doesn’t have much in the way of fitness DVDs, but Salvation Army is where I get most of mine. Today I found Weider XFactor missing one disc, but I bought it anyway. I also picked up Beach Babe by Tone it Up, Karena and Katrina. I have been interested in this one in the past but never bought it. I was surprised and excited to see it today. There were quite a few fitness DVDs today, some Leslies, Tae Bo, Rodney Yee, Carmen Electra, Jillian, pilates.

No equipment this time but lots of DVDs at Goodwill but
I found and purchased Tom Holland's Supreme 90 set for $2.99.

No calendar but it did have 10 DVDs which I think is the correct amount.I have no idea if I will ever use this set but it was kinda rare to see. (I know none of you will fault me for purchasing them anyway )

At used bookstore excited about these bargains that went home with me:
Three DVDs: 10 minute solution pilates for beginners (Lara Hudson ), 10 minute solution tighten and tone (Lara Hudson), and Jeanette Jenkins Bikini Bootcamp; and
Three books: Joyce Vedral Bottoms up hardcover, Brad Schoenfield Sculpting her body perfect w/ DVD, Rachel McLish Perfect Parts.

I have never tried Jeanette Jenkins but have read great stuff about her and I was thrilled to get such a nice copy of Bottoms up. The other two I scooped up because when I flipped through them they looked good. Perfect parts felt like a historical find to me, too, lol.

I learn great modifications and form pointers from books all the time. I just can't use them to follow a work out. Except for my pilates...I can with those books for some reason.

Just one fitness DVD find yesterday It was a Spinervals 25.0 Aero Base Builder V and cost me only 50c. The store now has a 4 for $2 policy. They tell me they want the DVDs to shift.

Heck, I purchased those new at Walgreen's years ago and have barely used them - though I continue to think I will someday. So I certainly wouldn't fault you for buying! Anyway, I know where the calendar is for mine, so PM me if you want a photo of it.

LOL. That describes half the DVDs in my collection. "Some day..."

I have a lot of virgins, too. But as new DVDs being put out are becoming rare, I can go shopping in my impressive DVD collection and have “new” DVDs!
