DVD To Buy, or DVD Not To Buy!
I was always one of those people who would buy a DVD of a film so I could watch it for the first time .. Great idea if the film turned out to be wonderful, but not so good when the film turns out to be utter crap, and would be destined to end up gathering dust on my shelf, typically leaving me £15 lighter!
Not anymore! Think I must have saved a small fortune over the last few months on DVD's, following signing up to Amazon.co.uk's, DVD Rental Service! Plus of course, the added bonus that if I buy any DVD's from Amazon.co.uk, I now get 10% off the cost, so win-win all round!
Whilst rental films such as the action packed War of the Worlds, humbling Hotel Rwanda and thought provoking Downfall all ended up on my purchase list .. other snoozefests such as The House of Wax, House of Nine and The Seed of Chucky, were so appalingly awful, that I'd have been gutted to have actually purchased those, so glad I could send them back after I'd wasted a few hours of my life watching them!
So well worth checking out a rental option if you think you waste money on rubbish films!

I'm lucky enough to have a fabulous public library in my county. I can order ANY DVD online and it is delivered directly to my local branch where I can pick it up and keep it for 7 days... completely free. -- MCMAS
