Title: FREE movie, music, & audio book rentals
Post by: RecycledPast on June 08, 2005, 02:17:37 pm
from your local library...  ;D

When was the last time you visited your library? 

In my area the library's are all connected so you can make a wish list on the library's website and they'll send whatever you want to whatever library you pick.

The only downside is that it can take a long time for new movies to come in, but you can't beat FREE.

I borrowed a copy of Happy Gilmore from the library last year.  The disc inside, when I got it home, was Big Bruthas and Little White Chix.

They were some big bruthas, that's for sure.

yep, my library does that too.  But they are not usually current.  I did get a system of the down cd form them, that was odd for the library :)

I get my audio books there also.

My town just built a new one. , Real nice. only problem is my old librarian retired.

My library = teh b0mb.  I get one movie out at a time, but I can keep it for up to two weeks.  No 'rental fee' either. 

Just watched season 1 of 'The West Wing' and season 4 of 'The Simpsons'.  I wish they'd get more stuff in, their VHS section outnumbers the DVDs by a wide margin.

My library mostly just has kids videos, and they're all tapes, no DVD's.

One way to help the library out is to donate your movies and cd's, they're tax deductable!  That way everyone wins, you get to see the latest movies, donate it, you get a tax write off, and your town gets new movies.  :angel:
