My cost is about $1.70 per DVD with Netflix. Locally, new releases
are $5.99, others $2.40. Occasionally, there is an unlimited $0.89
for 24 hour deal for non-new releases at a local video store. Three
for $5 is a good deal. If my cost jumps above $2.50, I'll consider
canceling Netflix, but the issue here is that Netflix has DVDs I'm
looking for that the local video stores do not.
