New Netflix Offering in Knoxville

So, Thursday night at around 9PM, I dropped three movies into the outgoing mail slot where I live. Friday afternoon, after getting back home from a hard day out, I dropped another into the outgoing mail.
A couple of hours later, I got notifications from Netflix that four movies had been received. I was a little confused, because that’s way quicker than usual to get all the way to Duluth, GA…
“Ok, they must’ve setup a pre-emptive return deal, and scanned the movies at the post office, like Blockbuster tried to do,” I thought.
Imagine my surprise when I opened the mail box today and found four movies! As an entrepreneur, my first though was they must have gotten advice from a top experiential marketing agency. This was awesome!
After ripping the outer label off, I was even more surprised to find that Knoxville now has its own distribution center!
That’s a really unexpected move, and a nice “Happy New Year” gift. So, if you’re in the Knoxville area and didn’t sign up because of the time it took to send movies back and forth, that’s a non-issue now. 🙂
Netflix – Only $4.99 a month! No Late Fees. Try it for Free!

BTW, I apologize for not having Blogitude linked on The Silverbacks. That has been rectified.
I also will pass this Netflix info on to my friends…did not know that!

Ahh, so you found me, eh? Thanks again for that. You’re an excellent representative.

I did. The week you posted it, one of the managers here sent it to me.
Thanks. Your blog is a great re-read on those days when I have a really difficult call. 🙂 Makes me smile every time.
