Default need to buy a DVD HELP !!

Hello Spanish forum,

I am in Benalmadena for another 8 weeks and i am renting an apartment that only has Spanish TV. Very entertaining after a couple of beers but sometimes I just want to watch a bit of something I fully understand. No point in fitting sky as it is not my apartment and only for 8 weeks. Can anyone help me in buying a DVD player so i can at least hire some and have a good old night in when sunburnt !!. I just want something cheap and cheerful, only to watch DVDs I will be chucking it in the bin when I leave. Can anyone suggest any shops any will be gratefully received. If anyone is moving home and selling one please let me know, or if you have 2 can I rent one from you.

Thanks a lot
J

Get your bum down to Carrefour. The last time I was there (the other day) they had some for about 35 euros.

The one in Torre is probable the nearest, but there is one in Miramar outside shopping center in Fuengirola.
Carrafour has changed its name now, it is Portugeezer owned, forgot the name though.

It has been reduced too!
Also, the ones shown are DVD recorders. They have normal players for 30-40 euros!

I gave the link please look further at the given link and you would have found these. Now I am outside Carrefour let me know which one you want and I will buy it, Come around to yours and install same. Then in 8 weeks time remove it for you and take it to the green disposal yard. Now did you want fries with that last order.Simples.If you want to compare meerkats try the link under the DVD link below.

AH! sarcasm, you just can´t beat it, I have missed that living in Australia for years. Yes I would be more than happy for you to do as you have asked, just pick one that you would be able to install easy enough, let me know what time you are coming around I´ll pop the kettle on or you can have a cold beer (I´m very flexible) especially when someone is as kind as you.
No thanks to the fries, I have more respect for my body.
It is cloudy in Benalmadena today so I will wait in for you just ring the buzzer when you get here we also have underground parking so no problem with your car. Also bring any kids you have along as we are on the beach front so they can have a paddle. See you later and thanks.
