[Vision2020] Movie rental places

[Tami Stinebaugh]

Rob,

I did try Howard Hughes, but was disappointed that new releases are only rented for one day.  Often it takes me several nights to get through a movie because I have two small children who completely wear me out!  We rented from them after Videoland ticked me off, but ended up turning the movie in late and then we got a lecture!  No thanks, I'll do without the lecture:)

Tami (I really would choose them if they rented for longer than one day.  That is key for my family.)
