Default Redbox

Is anyone else as addicted to this thing as me? I stop by that box like everyday, its one of the best things ever thought of as far as movie renting goes. You don't even mind when you get a horrible movie because it only costed you a dollar!

I must admit that it can bring out the worst in me though, like when there is a long line. In my head I'm thinking "they are probably getting every good movie in here, or at least the new ones." Or when its close to nine and all I wanna do is turn my movie back in and there are people just browsing movies and you think you're not gonna get in there before 9. LOL Horrible I know

You sure cannot beat a dollar. I like the fact that you can take it back to any redbox too. I recently just learned about reserving them online, I'm going to start doing that. Redbox thanks you

Redbox is good for what it is, but Netflicks is true genius

We were just talking about redbox the other day. I think they will be the number one video renter soon. They are in all the grocery stores, in fast food restaurants the malls they are even outside on the side walk as you are going into the store. You cant get away from them. The nice thing is you can return a video to ANY machine. If I pick up a video at McDonalds I can return the next day at the grocery store. Very convenient, but I do not use it if more then one person is in line. It takes too long to pick the video and check it out. Returning can also be a pain if more then one person is there. I still use the big box video store if we rent more then one movie.
