Blockbuster Wants To Lure You In On Christmas With Free Batteries
Apparently having given up on the whole movie rental thing as a way to lure customers into its few stores that remain open, Blockbuster is trotting out a free battery gimmick. Go into any participating store on Christmas and you can walk away with two packs of either AA or AAA batteries. If you need more than that, you can buy additional packs for a buck.
Check out the Blockbuster press release for full details, and note the “while supplies last” disclaimer. The release says Blockbusters will be open from noon to 10 p.m. on Christmas.
