Don’t have a credit card?  Parents won’t let you use it online to buy things from The Sims 3 Store.  Besides the $10 Sims Cash Card that you can find at Walmart as well as Best Buy, you can now find $20 EA Game Cards at your local Blockbuster movie store.  Not limited to The Sims, you can use these cards for a number of products at the EA Store.  Some may call this idea greedy, some may call it clever.  Personally I think it’s stupid.  No, not because EA is finding more ways to get people to use their store, but their pick of using Blockbuster…especially after the fact that they have announced that they have filed for  bankruptcy this month.

Here’s hoping they’ll move these on to other stores.  With Netflix being such a huge sucess, is there anyone out there that still uses Blockbuster for movies (guess its still useful to rent games, right)?
