You pay a monthy fee and they ship you new toys every other month and then you ship them back after 30 days. I haven't signed up but it could definitely save some of us some time on craigslist.

Neat idea, but I think $25 is too much. And that's the LOWEST plan.

Well, that is an interesting concept. I would much rather have a local place to go browse and pay per item. We have a local lending library for providers, but it would be nice to have more options.

Well when Netflix started they were more expensive too maybe this will go down in price. Humm I will check this out.

Interesting...I'll be curious to see if it is successful.

It is certainly a nifty concept, although for $25/month I could buy a lot of nifty toys to keep forever, so I'm not really positive of the long-term benefits of such a program.

I agree, I would rather spend 25.00 and have something forever and build my business instead of renting it for a month and not having something to use in the future.

Here's a couple more places... I heard about this many years ago on the news... very cool idea!!

They seem pretty expensive for me. I could just go to my local resale shop or Mom to Mom sale and get cool new toys for my group.

That's it right there. For $25, you could get a TON of stuff at resale stores, garage sales, Salvation Army store, etc. I have found GOOD stuff for 25 cents a piece! Maybe $2 at the very most. $25 could get me probably an average of 25 items. To KEEP!
