Thanks very much! I knew that all of these resources existed, but I was talking more around the lines of certain moves that I can practice while I wait for my money to grow enough to purchase one or more of these aforementioned DVD's. However, you DID give me a great selection, so thank you!

I would start with De'vo's extreme beginners.
I never really have had an interest in XCM past nice fans and cool moves, but Xtreme beginners is filled with all sorts of good moves taught very well. Look at teasers for the trilogy too, as it also has nice card flourishes.
