Anyone use Redbox?
You know those Redbox machines that offer $1 videos? You've probably seen them in the grocery store, Walmart, etc. Are these a good deal, or should they be avoided like the Coinstar machines should be avoided?

I use them all the time. Just make sure to return them the next day. You can find free codes pretty easily, but it's a great deal for $1

They work as advertised. I think they even have late return time now too (9pm).

Another $1/day until you hit $25 then you own the movie. Also you can check online if they have it available to rent before you go there.

I like redbox. It is easy to rent movies. I also like coinstar. My daughter likes to get itunes. If you get itiunes or other gift codes it is free.

I use them about once a month. If you look online, you can get promo codes for free movies.

I've used it several times also and would do so again. Getting the movie you want is the only drawback like anywhere.

Yup, Redbox is a sweet deal. Why pay $4 for a movie from Blockbuster when you can pay $1 from Redbox?

Redbox is a great deal. Just make sure you keep a mental note that you just spent $1.07 everytime you use the service because they do not give you a recepit.

Are the movies current and the latest ones out? I've seen one similiar to it in Publix supermarket but I don't think that it is called Redbox.

I've now used Redbox and love it. I normally can buy something in the grocery store as well. It's a good deal, although if it's far away the gas might be the problem.
