Here are 2 alternatives to cable I found that we have been using instead of cable to cut down on our bills and so far, it has worked out great despite my kids previous thoughts when we first decided to go cable- less. Now they hardly notice!
Option # 1
Free Rentals at RedBox which are DVD rental kiosks in grocery stores.
Their prices — $1/day with returns before 9 PM — are perfect for casual movie watchers who watch movies the night they get them and don’t want to be in a monthly subscription with Netflix or Blockbuster.
The selection is great: new movies from a number of genres sure to please any member of the family.
But the best part? You can rent movies for free — over and over and over again.
Redbox offer promo codes for free one-night rentals, and I’ve been using the same promo code over and over and over to get multiple free rentals.
In order to get the free rentals, here’s what you need to do:
1. Find your local Redbox (look here)
2. Double check they have the movie you want in stock (view selection here)
3. Head over to the Redbox, and select “Rent with a Promo Code”
4. Enter the code “Breakroom” and choose your movie
5. Swipe your credit/debit card (in case you decide to keep the movie for more than one night) and get the movie
6. Head home and enjoy!http://www.insideredbox.com/:
Each state has a list of codes that can be used at anytime not only Mondays, and you can keep track with this site on which codes you have already used for Free.
You won’t be charged for the movie as long as you return the DVD before 9 PM the next day.
You can also sign up for their RedBox Mondays text messages and they’ll text you a code every Monday (and sometimes other days) for a free rental.
Option # 2
Amazon Video on Demand :
The Amazon Unbox Video Downloads Store has thousands of DVD-quality TV shows, movies, and more for you to purchase or rent with a quite a few that are Free to view.click here.
You can preview upcoming Fall shows, see new TV Episodes and more all for Free. Some children’s favorites I found to be only $1.99. There are a number of ways to watch Amazon Video On Demand movies and TV shows on your television set. To view more ways,
If you purchase a movie, it goes directly into your Video Library which saves the video for easy viewing again & again! Not like cable where you only get the movie for 24 hours.
