H was just looking at one of his credit card statements for a card that he never uses. He leaves it here when he travels so I can order food on him if I want to one night. It had a charge for $27 from DVDPlay. I had no idea what that was and he said it's just like Redbox and I said I had never noticed one of those machines before so I didn't know what it was. He started looking on their website and saw that's what they charge if you never return a movie. So he looked back to about a month before that and it was a weekend he was out of town. Then he checked which stores have DVDPlay and it's one of the grocery stores I sometimes go to. We think I rented it at a DVDPlay and returned it at a Redbox. I had no clue there were too different things, they're both red, and it took my video back without a problem. I googled and this seems to be a common problem. So it appears Redbox got a free movie and we got a $27 charge with no video to show for it.

You've heard what I've done, not what I've been through.
If you were in my shoes, you'd fall the first step."
Blockbuster has pretty much the same thing called Blockbuster Express. I haven't used it yet because it's not in my normal driving area but it's supposed to be good.
I've thought about doing this but we don't watch movies that often. We would rather watch something on the Food Network or Discovery Channel.
Yeah, we get the blu-ray as well and enjoy it. I didnt think we would use Netflix that much either but now we use it all the time. You can get instant movies on your PS3, Wii, xbox (they just send you a CD to put into your game console) or your computer. If it's a day where we dont have a movie at the house then we watch all the stuff we record with our DVR.
Wow, $7 (even Canadian) to rent a movie seems steep!
We have the cheapo Netflix subscription-- we were given three months as a gift. I think we were too lazy to cancel it, so we'll probably get charged this month...
It's okay. But, I ask you, can it really be all that great if it won't even send me a copy of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas? I've been wanting to see that for YEARS, and I thought Netflix was my ticket! It will let me "save" it to the queue, but somehow that doesn't add it to my queue because availability is "unknown."
We used to be faithful patrons of Family Video (like Blockbuster), but then we moved and the one in our new town sucks. It's all little-kid movies that nobody's ever heard of, or old "unrated" stuff that drunk frat boys might possibly find amusing.
