How to save on Movie Rentals

2 Comments

BlockBusterWe have a family friend who rents movies at the supermarket from those stand up Red Boxes for $1 a day. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal as long as you want to run back and forth to the supermarket all the time. He also has a Blu-Ray player and those boxes do not have Blu-Ray. The major problem is that his rentals end up costing him on average $8.00 per rental. That is per a $1 rental. Why is that? He’s a procrastinator.

The perfect plan for him would be Blockbuster Online. And that is because BLOCKBUSTER Online Offers More Choices, shipping is free both ways, you can keep the movies as long as you need them and there is no extra charge for Blu-Ray movie rentals. Pretty much the perfect scenario for my movie renting friend. And if you are one of those people who likes going to the store, poking around and finding movies then you can do that as well (depending upon your plan).

I’ve encouraged him to sign up for the Free Trial of BLOCKBUSTER Online today. I know that this will end up costing him so much less over time and who doesn’t want to save a few bucks, especially on entertainment.

Relay for Life Fundraising

Hope... PAD #1176

Allison, Eva and I will be participating in our local Relay for Life on Friday June 12-13, 2009. We participated in the relay last year as well. Our fund raising efforts have been scant so far. With so much going on it was difficult to get the word out.

So, I am calling upon the readership of BenSpark.com for some help.

In return for a $10 min donation I’ll add a link to your blog in a thank you post.

In return for a $25 min donation I’ll write a review of your blog.

In return for Tweeting the link to our donation page I’ll post your twitter name on to a #FollowFriday list.

“Help @alsparky #evaboo & @benspark raise $500 for Relay for Life http://urlbrief.com/8f72c0“

“Donate $25 to the Relay for Life and get yourself a review on @benspark’s blog. https://benspark.com/relay-for-life-fundraising.html“

I’d also appreciate anyone blogging about our walk. We are walking to join people around the world in celebrating those who have survived cancer, remembering the people we’ve lost, and supporting the lifesaving mission of the American Cancer Society.

We are also walking for family and friends who have endured, survived and succumbed to Cancer. Your donation will go to help fight against this insidious disease.

When you make a donation you are helping deliver the hope that future generations will not have to endure cancer threatening the lives of their friends and family. You have the power to fight back against a disease that affects millions.

The American Cancer Society has funded researchers that have been involved in virtually every cancer breakthrough, including mammography to screen for breast cancer, the Pap smear to test for cervical cancer, the link between smoking and lung cancer, and more recently the link between obesity and a higher risk for the disease. Forty of the researchers it funded early in their careers have gone on to win the Nobel Prize!

You can be sure your donation will be put to good use!
