I've had it brought to my attention, although ive never used one my brother and two of our employee's have and liked it.

So they kind of talked me into the idea of bringing one to our store, as the only places that sell movies are in Muskego/Burlington and both are 10+ miles away from our store.

I don't know all of the details, but i contacted the company to ask about more info and what is envolved to having one at our place.

Feedback?

When I am home I use the one in our grocery store all the time. It can be a bit of a battle to get the newer or more popular movies because there usually are not more than two copies. The price point is right, 1.06 with tax and the worst part is remembering to return the movie early than 8:55 because there tends to be a line of people returning. I have no idea about the cost on the stores end, but if you keep the "movie" snacks close by for an impulse buy it could work out quite well.

Thats kinda what i was thinking. We have the soda, Popcorn, Candy, ect

Where you could get the movie and all the snacks for 2 people for $8 versus going to Showtime/Ridge and pay $25 for 2 people

Yea I use those things pretty often actually. Right up the street at the Walgreens, and it's a dollar a day rental. They even have a pretty good selection of movies.

I always wondered... Does anyone know if you can rent from one RedBox and return to another?

yes, my cousin said she used the one in Burlington, and had her hubby return it at the one in Franklin.

She said the people go through every week to check them, so the movies stay pretty recent.

We used the ones in AZ religiously. Very easy to use and a large selection, good prices too!! One thing is they tend to have some weird generic movies.
