I remember renting VHS and later dvd's.
It usually cost like 4 bucks
There used to be a video store near me that had a 444 deal. You could rent four movies for four days for four dollars.
in the USA for the longest time there was a chain of video stores by me called family video that you could rent seven movies for 7 days for 50 cent each
Both of these deals strictly applied to older titles without a "new release" sticker, meaning they are not applicable in this context.
if the context is value, then it does
It's usually $4 to rent a movie that's not in theaters. Barbie hasn't ended it's theater run.
Uhh, Redbox is still super cheap
