Blockbuster Plug


My two week Blockbuster trial at 3-dvd's at one time is about to end; all these DVD's come via mail from Blockbuster's distribution center. In these past two weeks I have been sent (or am in the process of being sent):
The Holiday
The Prestige
The Illusion
Pan's Labyrinth
The Last King of Scotland
Flags of Our Fathers
Little Children
Stranger than Fiction
Stomp the Yard


And since this program allows you to return the mailed DVD's in store, I have also rented from my local Blockbuster (free of charge):
Pursuit of Happyness
Rocky Balboa
Fast Food Nation
Gridiron Gang
The Hidden Blade
The Science of Sleep

With 3 more DVD en-route (bolded) from the distribution center, I can translate that into 3 more free in store rentals, which means that these two weeks resulted in a total of 18 free movies!

I am actually changing my subscription today to 1 DVD at a time and even that would be a great deal. If I watch 2 movies a week (and use my free movie coupon); I should be able to watch 6-9 movies a month; which is definitely worth the 9.99 subscription price (especially since I don't have cable, satellite, and/or any other form of multi-channel television).

Good Blockbuster. Good movie watcher.

PS. in queue:
Letters from Iwo Jima
Azumi
Stranger than Fiction
Hotel Rwanda
Stomp the Yard
Freedom Writers
Volver
Good Shepherd
