What I appreciate most about the site, is how the codes are broken down by geographic area. I find that it seems to make a big difference-we’re in the NorthEast, and I’ve found codes used in other areas to be invalid here.

Some of the other improvements to the box, that others have mentioned, would be grand- but my expectations for change is low…we are talking about a buck here. I haven’t come across any damaged DVD’s yet, that WOULD be a huge drag.

So… my favorite feature is obviously the codes…

Re: Redbox in general…

1. We need more “kids” friendly movies… maybe just more qty in the machine.

2. More locations where there isnt a mcdonalds… although I would just like a mcdonalds closer. (Anybody have some startup money?)

3. Faster Return

4. Faster Checkout, we always have lines of 5-6 people.

I tried Redbox for the first time this past weekend. I used two different codes to get free rentals. (DVDONME & FREEDVD1) I did try using “DENVER” and it showed “invalid”. Both movies, “The Ringer and “Yours, Mine & Ours” were good movies. I will be using Redbox more often. Blockbuster has lost my business about a year ago. I won’t pay $4.50 to rent a movie ever again.

I would like to see the DVD Return give you the option to add feedback. For example: Disc was scratched and unreadable – this could earmark that disc to have it taken out of circulation and/or replaced.

Another idea would be to have a quick return feature where even when someone else is browsing through available titles you could walk up and insert a movie in the slot and return it without interrupting them. That would probably take some hardware upgrades and maybe an external button being I think the slots are sealed when not in use.

The volunteer participation feature of the code list is very cool. It’s nice to see if people in my area have had success with certain codes. We just got a redbox in a Smiths store closer to my house, so I’ll be using RedBox and the codes from this site a lot more often! Maybe it would be cool to give us the option to have email or text message alerts of new codes as they become available.

My family and I have really enjoyed using the Red Box. We usually rent at least 1 DVD a week. I have a hard time finding any valid codes – and have only gotten 1 DVD without a charge. Also, where I live the Red Box is always down. It is super annoying! I have had this problem 4 times now.

The CODES are by far the most valuable item listed on this site.

I would LOVE to see a search engine, by zip code, that could tell you what store has the movie you would like to rent that night, and how many copies are available. I don’t think it is necessary to have a reserve feature, as the movies are only $1.00, however, a search feature would be very useful!

Well this past weekend I rented four movies and couldn’t use any codes to get any free movies everyone I used was invalid.

I would like the time to change from 7pm to Midnight to return a movie. I would also like to see that updates, like what is online of new movies just released, actually be in the Redbox that you rent from. Most of the time the Redbox in my neightborhood is somewhat limited on titles to rent.

Thanks,
