I’ve been thinking about trying Netflix for awhile now and I do believe you just made my mind up for me. Thanks for a great blog!

I second the Blockbuster idea! We buy most of our DVDs from them. And as a bonus: if you don’t think you’ll watch it again, you can sell it back to them! They pay up to $5 for popular used DVDs. Even if you only get $2 and you paid $5, it’s still cheaper then renting, and it’s not cluttering up your basement!

Another suggestion is to buy the previously viewed ones from Blockbuster. Having two little ones, I don’t have much time for tv or for movies, but during one of my personal times away from the kids I dropped into Blockbuster. Their big banners lured me in. I bought a movie that I had been wanting to see for only $5. I couldn’t have rented it for much cheaper. Before I buy movies now I try to make sure it is a movie that I will watch again and one that I can show the youth from our church when they come over, so I have to check the content. This particular movie that I bought was rated PG. After watching I learned it was a good movie and an appropriate one to show to the youth from church when they come to visit. It was a good use of money. You could also try yard sales. People do get rid of those movies that take up too much space.

Exactly Although one of these days, you and I are going to have one heck of a yard sale! Yippee!

You are right about purchased movies taking up a lot of space. I keep buying them because they are a great price, but half of them still have the cellophane on. I keep telling myself that one of these days…

So, I definitely know where you are coming from!
