Shortly before Christmas I bought the first 3 DVD's of HGJ at Best Buy packaged together for 20 bucks. My question is is there any chance they'll do something simular for the next 4 discs? Meaning putting them together for a cheap prce. Thanks.

Maybe. I think they're called "Bailey boxes" or something. They did this with the first 6 volumes of Chobits, splitting 3 per box for a much lower price than it would cost to buy 3 separate volumes, though I think you have to go out and buy Vol.7 on your own.
I suppose you could either wait for the next box or a possible thinpack release, should they decide to make one.
