Blockbuster on-line vs. Blockbuster store??

[CheapMom]

I love Blockbuster Online- have had it for almost a year now- we have had 2 scratched dvds in that time. They also sent me the wrong movie once. We love the in store coupons for free movie or game rentals (and sometimes for free previewed DVDs). You get at least 2 free in-store rentals per month- I use video game rentals as a treat/reward for my son. I have not had any trouble getting new releases. I think NetFlix is about 1 day faster on shipping.

How do you guys have the time to watch all those movies? Is it really worth the monthly fee? Do you get your $$'s worth? I'm considering getting a subscription for my DH from Santa.

Considering the movies cost about $5 to rent, at $15/month you only need to watch 3 movies a month to break even. We watch more some months than others depending on our schedules, but all in all it works out and it's nice to be be left with slim pickings Friday night at the video store. It's also nice not to have a due date for returns.
