COST in Canada at the time:
- blank printable DVD 0.13
- case 0.15
- Kodak paper ( glossy ) 0.28
- shrink wrap : 0.10 ( had my shrink wrap machine, but you can buy '' inserts '' that you seal with no heat gun
Total : 0.66

pretty much that
blank sony dvd 23 cents
dvd cover and the dvd case. I bought the cases on ebay by the 1000 and they were pretty cheap.
They have an easy way to print labels and stick them on the dvds.
The way I did it and this was very important because doing this on your own will take a lot of hours.
I got 3 of the girls I work with and we got in a line and each one of us did one part including the shrink wrap too. You can buy all this stuff on ebay very cheap. I would have all the dvds already burned and in one day we could bust out about 1000 of them all packaged and ready to go. Sold them to stores for 8-12 bucks each.
I think my cost for a finished dvd was 87 cents.
