With so many ways today to get your entertainment, it can sometimes be confusing to know which company will provide you with just what you want and need. In this article, I will go over the block buster dvd rental program so you can compare it to others that are available.
With the block buster dvd rental you can either rent a dvd right in the store, if you have one near you, or you can get one sent to you in the mail.
There are pros and cons with each method I will go over some of the basics:
1. One of the best reasons to get a subscription, and get your movies by mail, is that you don't have any late fees. you can keep your movies, or games, as long as you want.
If you rent in a store you will pay a late fee. One thing that I found out from the Blockbuster web site is a little sneaky and I wanted you to be aware of it.
It says on the website that "our stores no longer have late fees" but then it goes on to say that if you don't return your movie or game by the date on the receipt you will be charged an additional daily rate of $1.
I don't know about you, but that sounds an awful lot like a late fee to me.
Also, if you don't return the dvds or games in a certain amount of time after your due date, they will charge you the price of the dvds and games.
If you eventually do return it, they will refund the price of the dvds or games but they will deduct the $1 a day from the refund price.
2. You can go to the website whenever you want and add movies to your queue. That means that they will be sent out to you in the order they are in your queue.
As soon as you send back the movies that you have already watched, they will send out the next movie(s) in you queue, automatically.
That can ensure that you always have something new to watch and you don't have to constantly go looking for what movie you want to see.
3. Depending on your local store you may be able to return your dvds and games right at your local store. Again, that can vary so make sure you check in your area.
4. There are 3 different plans available:
1 movie sent out a time with unlimited free exchanges - $9.99 / month.
2 movies sent and free unlimited exchange - $14.99 / month
3 movies sent and free unlimited exchange - $19.99 / month
There are many places you can get dvds and game rentals. With the success of Netflix, many other options have sprung up such as Redbox and Blockbuster by mail.
Now that you have some more information, you can decide whether or not the block buster dvd rental program is the right one for you or not. |
