Xtra Mart offers customers 80 locations to access DVDs at $1/night

DULUTH, Ga. – NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR) continues the growth of its outdoor BLOCKBUSTER Express® kiosk deployments, adding 80 Xtra Mart convenience store locations. Xtra Mart has 150 locations throughout Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania and Maryland. Kiosk deployment will begin in May and is expected to finish this summer.



Xtra Mart customers can rent their favorite new or classic movies conveniently and affordably through NCR’s BLOCKBUSTER Express-branded kiosks, which offer standard DVDs for only $1 a night with no membership required. Customers simply use their credit card at the machine and are charged $1 per night until they return the DVD to any BLOCKBUSTER Express kiosk – not just the kiosk where they rented the DVD. The kiosks will be stationed outside Xtra Mart locations, allowing customers to rent a movie any time day or night, making the DVD kiosks even more convenient for consumers.



“Xtra Mart is constantly striving to provide premium services and products to our customers. Installing DVD kiosks outside our stores accomplishes just that,” said Robert Sanft, category manager at Xtra Mart. “We knew that we wanted to partner with a company that was as dedicated as Xtra Mart to providing customers with fast and reliable access to products and services.”



NCR’s outdoor kiosk is the most secure and highest-capacity weather-protected DVD-rental kiosk in the industry. With capacity for more than 900 DVDs each, the kiosks can provide consumers the widest, most popular selection of new and classic DVDs available. For a full list of titles available at BLOCKBUSTER Express kiosks, visit www.blockbusterexpress.com, where consumers can also rent a title online for pickup at their chosen kiosk.



“By partnering with NCR, Xtra Mart is providing its customers with a total shopping experience, including fuel, food and entertainment at convenient locations with flexible hours,” said Alex Camara, vice president and general manager, NCR Entertainment. “Our DVD-rental kiosk deployments are continuing to grow as more retail partners decide to incorporate entertainment options into the everyday shopping benefits they offer customers.”
