( This is an old post from a previous blog that I decided to keep up )Movie theatre prices are through the roof. You can’t even see a movie for five dollars during the matinee anymore. Instead of going to the theatre on opening night, many people are opting for the $2 theatre or the video store. If you don’t want to go and sit in a cold and dingy $2 theatre or pay around $4 to rent a movie from your local video store you should check out Red Box and DVDXpress. These companies allow you to rent movies for $1!!! Yes $1.
They have machines (similar to the one above)set up at different stores. I have seen them in Wal-Mart and Bi-Lo. They are in the entrance before you walk into the store.
Here is how it goes:
- You select the movie that you want to see and you pay for the movie using your debit/credit card.
- Next the DVD(s) will be dispensed to you from the Kiosk
- When you are done with the DVD(s) return them to the kiosk through the dispenser
- Remember to follow the directions on the screen and make sure you complete your transactions fully before leaving the kiosk.
I have used both companies and I do love their services. They offer a great way to save money, spend time with your family, and be in your comfort zone. You should also check out their websites http://www.redbox.com/ and mydvdxpress.net for further savings and other programs they offer. Another site to check out is insideredbox.com . You may find codes for free movie rentals there.
Note: Red Box allows you the convenience of returning your movie rentals to any of their Kiosk locations and not just the one you purchased from.
