Contradictions in packaging.

I recently signed up for Blockbuster’s online movie service because they rent out bluray movies. I watched Aeon Flux tonight, and discovered it’s not as bad as most people claim… But as I was putting it back in the envelope to return it I noticed something silly.

On the outside of the outer envelope:
“Exchange this movie with a DVD inside for a free in-store movie rental.” (They should have said “envelope” instead of “movie” too.)

On the outside of the inner envelope:
“Thank you for returning your DVD by mail and not to the store.”

If I were a blonde, I’d be so confused right now. ;)
