If you are traveling....... Redbox makes good sense, If you go an hour without seeing a McDonalds wherever you travel, you are probably on foot.
Pick up at one Redbox, return at another. What doesn't make sense there, right? Just had some friends drive to Fl from MN. They said it worked exquisitely. And at a buck a shot? No brainer.

I remember seeing these at Staples but I'd rather pick Redbox. Between McDonalds and Walmarts, there's several choices to return them. Plus, having a bunch of discs in the trash would be extremely wasteful.

I had never heard of Redbox before...just checked their website and the closest one is over 15 miles away. But, Redbox does sounds like a great idea when traveling as you mentioned! Thanks.

Beautiful,,,wasn't aware that you can do that with Redbox as I thought you had to return it to the same location. Wonder if the wife will give me my dollar back that she overpaid on the "chick flick" she bought and I had to suffer thru watching tonight. Oh the humanity!
