Where can I find The Feynman Lectures on Physics at a discount?

In summary: I don't know if you are familiar with the New Millennium edition - it is basically the same as the second edition, but with corrections that appeared in the literature after the book was published.

You could try university bookstores. Around now, they might be having sales to clear out inventory for next term.

I have several copies, including a few still in the shrink wrap, given to me by the publisher (because I created this edition and am one of the authors of the "Tips" book). I am not supposed to sell them. ;-) I am curious to know why you are looking for it. I suppose you are a book collector. The latest (New Millennium) editions of FLP and 'Tips' are better, insofar as studying physics goes.
