Can my debit card be debited after cancelling the card?

Question

We rented some movies at one of those movie cube machines at grocery stores and while at the grocery story my wife lost her purse with 3 movies and debit card. We immediately cancelled the debit card but my question is, can I still be debited for the 3 movies we lost. Its 35 dollars per movie and thats a lot of money for me. When renting the movie at this machine you require a debit or credit card and you dont get charged at the moment of renting but you get charged when returning the movie for whatever days the movie was rented. Please advise...

No, they can't debit that particular card - but you'll still owe the rental store.  If the purse and the movies don't show up, you'll have to pay for the movies.  I'm sure they'll take a check.  

If you don't pay it, they will probably send a statement to your credit report, and they can also send you to collections.
