Redbox

I am not sure if you all have heard of this, but at all Walmarts and Walgreens' and some Circle K's there are Redbox machines. They only charge 99cents a day for renting new release films, and you can just rent and return as many as you want at a time, which is convenient without having to pay a membership. Also, most of the Walgreens Red boxes have the option for you to purchase DVD's from the box for only like $6 a piece.

Wheres the catch, you may ask?

If you lose a video they wait until it has been missing from the box for 25 days and charge you $25 for the video EVEN if you try to contact them to try and buy it for just the $6 and the number of days youve had it. The bums. I do not think I will be patronizing them in the future if they are going to have such poor customer service practices. too bad for them, because we are movie nuts. We will have to start using Netflicks, or one of those monthly rental things from the video store.

Forget Redbox. Perhaps red is not always best after all...

I am now throwing this into the Problem Attic so that I can stop brooding over it!

(sigh of relief)

I use NetFlix and love it. I was paying $21.99 over the summer to get 3 BluRays at a time (cheaper if you just get regular DVD). Now with TV season & school starting I cut it to 2 at a time for $16.99. You can rent as many as you want per month. It usually takes 1 day for them to get my return ion the mail and another to send me a new one. Return on Monday (morning) have new one by Wednesday. Besides that they have thousands of movies & TV shows you can stream off their website. I usually just plug my lap top into my TV so I can watch them right on there. Quality is not perfect but very good to.
I know I sounds like and add for them LOL but I think you will enjoy using them if you decide to give it a try.
