  • 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).

          What is the fee if you return the movie late?

            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 use them all the time. Never had a problem. You can't beat the price.

                      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.
