So, we go rent some movies and my husband walks out with 4 DVDs and 2 ice creams for the boys and it cost him $27. Only one was a new release, 1 was a sponge bob show from the 90s, 1 power ranger movie from the early 90s and Gremlins, I believe is from the 80s. They now charge $5 to rent any movie! That is ridiculous! I can go buy movies at Wal-mart for $5 in the big bins they have! Heck there at Blockbuster was a table of pre-viewed DVDs 4 for $20! And they did away with the no late fee thing and it costs $1 a day...why not go to the red box at the grocery store?
There is NO WAY I will ever go back to Blockbuster. I have had one of their membership things that you pay so much a year to belong and now they want me to buy a different membership so each movie costs less. Why not jack up the cost to rent a video game? Leave the movies alone. Heck for that price I can get a pay per view off the satellite and not have to drive anyplace.
I feel bad because I bought Blockbuster gift cards for people last Christmas. I am so sorry to all of you! I thought it would be a nice addition to toss in with gifts. Guess I was wrong.

Give Net Flix a try. It's great! We love it. You choose the movies you want on-line and they show up in your mail box in just 1-2 days. Keep them as long as you want. It's quick and easy. Heck I think we've had our last movie for the last 2 weeks... oops guess we should watch that one so we can get something new. =)
