I'm afraid that wii sports and LCT are gonna get scratched so I want to buy some cases and use the fan-made dvd covers available on the net to make proper boxes for them. The problem is finding the cases. You can find white ones, but the shipping, even on a single case seems to be around 10 bucks. The few places that offer free/cheap shipping want a minimum order of 50, and lets face it, I'm only gonna need white cases for my wii, everything else will be black.
The only place that seems somewhat reasonable is nintendo's online store, but it's still a tad pricey... You pay 2 dollars shipping on a 1.50 item. On top of that, dvd cases are around 20 cents, not $1.50, everywhere else. That's probably where I'll get them, but since I'm not getting them yet I wanted to make sure there wasn't a better place. I know I'm quibbling over 2 or 3 bucks here, but I'm cheap and it's the principal of the thing. ;)
So if you know a place that sells white dvd cases for little or no shipping, just chime in. :)

Go to any Target. They'll have a stack of old demo DVDs that they were selling Christmas 2006. Should have Spider-Man on the cover. White case and they cost 1 cent. They sold me ~5 without blinking a few months ago.
So you can pay $8.99 shipped for 5 cases from Nintendo. Or you can spend $8 in gas driving to Targets. Choice is yours.
;D
Heh, well since I can just wait until the next time I'm near a target anyway, I won't waste any gas. Thanks!
