I guess we might be the last family in America to try Netflix but we saw the free trial deal and decided to give it a try. We figured this might save us money.

Our family’s history for saving money when it comes to movie watching has followed an evolutionary process. We started out renting movies, but we always, and without fail turned our movies in late and paid these outrageous late fees. So we decided, like most of America decided (see fig. 1 & 2) that we’ll just buy movies we like so we don’t have to pay a late fee. Checkmate, Blockbuster. That worked out for awhile but then we got to thinking, “Wait, what are we doing?” Enter Netflix.

So far we’ve seen, “Thank You For Smoking“, “Darkon“, and tonight it’s “Eagle vs. Shark” and have really enjoyed Netflix and the absence of late fees.  This might be the end of the “saving money on movies” evolutionary train.
