Redbox is continuing it’s expansion (and world domination) with plans to add over 2,700 locations at Wal-marts across the country in 2008.
From the press release:
Redbox, the fully automated DVD rental system featuring new release rentals for $1 per night, recently announced an agreement with Wal-Mart to expand its number of automated DVD rental kiosks to the majority of Wal-Mart’s 3,542 stores nationwide. Currently available at nearly 800 U.S. Wal-Mart locations, redbox will install kiosks at approximately 2,700 additional Wal-Mart stores beginning in the first half of 2008 and continuing into 2009.
[...]
Redbox kiosks are now available at more than 6,700 locations nationwide, including leading grocery stores, select McDonald’s® restaurants, and Walgreens and Wal-Mart locations in select markets. The company’s expanded Wal-Mart presence further solidifies redbox’s position as the number one DVD rental provider in the country based on number of U.S. locations.
Add that up and that puts Redbox in over 10,000 locations within a year. Now if they only had a location just outside my front door…
