I just used a Redbox DVD rental kiosk at the Albertson’s down the street from us. We have Netflix, which we love, but sometimes I don’t get the movie back in the mail soon enough for the weekend (and the mail doesn’t run on Sundays anyway), so when I see an opportunity to get watch a new movie for $1 a night without having to talk anybody, I’m all for it.
If you want to try it, Redbox will email you a promo code for a free rental to use at one of the kiosks (I don’t think you can use it to rent online). So, the price is definitely right. I haven’t used my promo code yet, but I suspect you’ll still need to swipe a card at the kiosk in case you decide to keep the movie more than one day.
You can check for Redbox locations on their website.
Just so you know, I’m not getting paid anything for pushing Redbox. I just think it’s neat, and makes a good DVD rental back-up to whatever service you’re using now : )
BTW, The Departed

Never heard of redbox, but The Departed is my favorite movie from the past year. Don’t know why, but I can’t post comments on Cindy’s blog again. Must be my computer. I’m never at another computer to see if that works. Tell her bummer.
Yeah, The Departed is pretty darned good. I didn’t want to see it, but about three minutes into it, I was totally into it, you know? I love Wahlberg’s character and how it all ends. Awesome.
I thought everybody did a great job, but my favorite scene is the first team briefing and the little exchange between Wahlberg and Baldwin. Excellent.
we love redbox too!
