[quote name='jezebelseven']Ditto to this. I also never go into Blockbuster as I'm really bad about late fees and whatnot so I wouldn't have thought of checking there for a sale on games.
Dunno if adding 'BlkBstr' or something would be helpful to the other thread's title or not, but yeah, I never even though to look there for blockbuster sales.[/quote]
Blockbuster actually got rid of late fees. Basically, you can keep a movie an extra week with no charge...but after 10 days or so they charge your credit card for the cost of the dvd. Then as long as you bring it back within a month or so, they give you your money back minus a "restocking" fee which works out to like $3. So basically, they sorta have late fees but they are $3 for a dvd being a month late. They are getting a lot less of my money now as I used to forget on occasion, and it would always be when I had like 5 new releases out at once, 3 days late, which was $3.50 a day x 5 + tax. Ouch.
Anyway, I recommend Blockbuster Online to people who have problems returning rentals on time. No late fees ever...you just don't get your next dvd until you send one back. You get 3 out at a time, and if you watch them fast like I do, it works out to around 12 rentals a month for under $20, plus you get 1 free in-store rental each week. In-store rentals here are $3.50 plus tax, so almost $4. It all works out to about $16 rentals a month...pretty good deal. I talked my dad into signing up...he's scared of technology but loves bargains.

As for the Blockbuster/Gamerush debate...I say rename the thread from Gamerush to Blockbuster. All Blockbusters don't have Gamerushes, but as far as I know, all Gamerush's are inside Blockbuster stores, so just putting "Blockbuster" in the thread title instead of Gamerush would probably help get more page views. I don't even remember the last GR deal that didn't work at Blockbuster as well. Heck, I didn't even know what Gamerush was until I started reading CAG...the reference confused me at first. Yah, there's a little sign on all my Blockbuster stores that says "Gamerush" but I never noticed it before. I'd never say to any of my friends or family, "Hey, let's go to Gamerush!" They'd have no idea what the hell I was talking about.
