To each his own I guess. I personally don't have the ability to burn to a DVD and certainly wouldn't judge how anyone spends their own money.

Same here. I'm not at all sure I even want them, but it's hard to resist a bargain!

I KNOW! I'm not sure what to do... What a predicament.

Ali,

I'm totally with you on this one. I JUST bought the series myself when we got back from Spring Break. I've only done each workout once. I ordered mine from Mary so got free shipping, but that's nothing compared to this discount. I really love this series and think it was worth the money I paid, but it was a HUGE splurge on my part and my conscience would have rested much easier not knowing that it is so cheap now! I totally understand having a sale, and honestly wouldn't care if it was only 20-30 dollars off what I paid, but to charge only 50 dollars???? That is enough to make me feel queasy.

I feel the same way. I have only tried two of them. I haven't purchased anything else myself in a long while with switching jobs (I did get a gift during Mary's sale, but dream body was my purchase). I felt kinnda guilty buying them. I know, the sale is so extreme that I can't help but think of how I could have saved almost $70 if I'd have waited a week or so. That is so much money. I feel queasy about it too.

I am completely in agreement! I just received my set last week after holding out forever. Had it been a minor discount, even a $50 discount, I wouldn't have batted an eyelash. But, charging $50 for the whole thing -- I'm SUPER irritated. Great deal for those who held out an extra week longer than I. But, zero regard for those of us who just made a purchase. I normally don't become unhinged over discounts. For instance, I don't expect to get a discount on the original DVD because I've had that for so long. But, I am disappointed in them on this deal. Tough luck, I guess.

I know how you ladies feel about buying the set before the sale.
I just spent over $500 on Michellin tires at Costco, and 3 weeks later, they're on sale $70 off.

$70 for everything is still VERY MUCH worth it. Just like everyone else, I'm disappointed that I didn't pay that little, but I've had mine over 2 months, so it's ok.

As to Mary charging so little for them, I highly doubt it & I should hope not. That lovely woman already goes above & beyond for her customers, such a crazy discount isn't anything one should ask of her (IMO).

Wow, an excellent deal for the set of 5 workouts! (I still don't want it though, lol.)
