Send them a picture and you're entered in the contest. I forgot the e-mail....maybe store.support@blockbuster.com? I'll look when I go in today. Winners get a pizza party for their store, and the grand prize gets some as-yet-to-be-determined mystery prize.
The "as-yet-to-be-determined mystery prize" is a free pass to the front of the unemployment line and a 10% discount on Dish since you'll be out of a job and have plenty of time on your hands???

With the new rental terms, they could cut down on rental product since they are due back in one day. But with this new pass drive they did not increase product availability. Thus causing a shortage of rental product. I was told by a SM this was to bring back customers and increase customer count. From what I am experiencing is just pissing me off more that I can't get NR now because people can keep them out longer without late fees. Thus no availability on the newest releases.
Did Dish decide to go by the old ways BBI did things?
Not to mention the Thor coupons, WTF with that on making money?
Shooting more holes in the foot.............

My TNR today was a joke. Thanks Thorathon and pass drive. That was the lowest Tuesday rev I've had in months. I have about as much chance of making budget this week as I have of emptying the Pacific Ocean. With a spoon.

This was exactly why I didn't understand the logic of pushing the pass and Thor free coupons when the copy depth is non-existent.

Yes I am the builder/engineer.

But there is an opposite spoon that releases water...we must watch out for this one as our said spoon can only hold water....

From wat I understand the THor coupon was so people would go to us and not redbox, since it was one of the few non-28 day movies at the time
