Walmart dvd rental service 30 days FREE

I have not tried it either, so I'm interested to hear what they're like. It's Walmart, so they should be reliable. I just don't know how great their selections are. (I'm looking for those rare Criterion DVDs to rent)

By the way, the link above didn't show me a free trial. Am I supposed to click on "Continue" to see it?

(edit) nm, I see it now. Sorry.
 
the really rare criterions no one will ever rent. but netflix has most of them.

anyway. this looks just like net flix and has almost the same selction (and logos)
 
Ya just hit continue (the 2 dvds out plan is the 30 day free one)

Netflix says they have over 15,000 dvds to choose from.
walmart says 14,000 dvds.

Its free i just signed up and my first 2 dvds are going to be farscape.

well see how long they take
 
^^ Cool, thanks. I never knew that. I thought Hollywood video would be more mainstream. I'll check it out.
 
I've been using the Wal-Mart service for about a month now & have squeezed 12 rentals out of them in that time. Of course, I live in Arkansas - so the transit time is really short.

No complaints here - I think I'm going to keep them after my 30 days are up.
 
Wal-mart is SLOW. Netlfix has atlot more shipping centers around the US. It took about 3 days for me to receive my dvds and 3 days to send it back. A couple years ago, netfilx was this slow as well, but since they now have a distribution center in houston, I received the dvds the next day. I tried both the 14 day trial from netflix and the 30 day trial from walmart, and I was able to squeeze 12 rentals from each. I like how walmart offers a free 30 day trial, but they really need more distribution centers if they want to catch up to netflix.
 
netflix has 23 centers in the usa.

i would just guess that they are in major cities in 23 states.

i got my first 2 fast so ill wait and see.



The price for 4 out is only 21.88 + tax
compared to 5 out with netflix for 29.99 + tax

The 4 deal is alot better and only walmart has a 4out option.
 
If Wal-Mart was a person it would be an old man and people would leave burning bags of dog shit on his front steps and rob him when he went away on vacation.
 
i just got an email today from netflix stating that there subscription services are going to be rising .

"Beginning June 15, 2004, we will be raising the prices of all our subscription programs. Your plan, the Netflix 5-at-a-time program, will change from $29.95 per month to $33.99 per month. "

Thankfully walmart has shown to be just as fast as netflix and cheaper.


4 out for 21+tax compared to 33.99 for 5 out with netflix.

goodbye netflix.
