And that was a nice visit, thanks for stopping by.<BR/><BR/>@all -- OK, I'm sold on the Redbox thing. It was simple and easy to use, large selection (at least at this kiosk), and they kept me well-informed via email of the status of my transaction. Thanks to the promo that Dawn sent, my video this time (Ocean's 13, BTW) was free.<BR/><BR/>About the only negative things I can say are (1) The DVD had a couple of scratches on it that caused it to actually have playback problems in two spots. No big deal, and I might have avoided the issue by cleaning the disk first with a microfiber towel. And (2) the kiosk was actually down for "inventory maintenance" when I went to return the DVD around 5pm or so. It was back up on my second attempt at 8:30, though, so my return was "on time."<BR/><BR/>-SeanSeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17930398671280529448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-89822135053949186812008-05-23T13:54:00.000-04:002008-05-23T13:54:00.000-04:00Netflix also has online options, all you need is a...Netflix also has online options, all you need is a decent internet connection.Ellobiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13289111078840130779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-29747553681166129192008-05-22T23:16:00.000-04:002008-05-22T23:16:00.000-04:00We'll have to check out Redbox and see how they wo...We'll have to check out Redbox and see how they work for us. We've been full-timing for about a year and have found Netflix fairly easy to use while being mobile. They allow us to change our shipping address as often as need to so that our movies catch up with us. If we know we'll be visiting somewhere, we change our address there - other wise it goes to our our mail forwarding service in South Dakota that eventually catches up with us. <BR/><BR/>Redbox is intriguing tho. <BR/><BR/> - Cherie<BR/>www.technomadia.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-10630283145840271332008-05-22T11:18:00.000-04:002008-05-22T11:18:00.000-04:00Yes, you can rent a redbox dvd from one location a...Yes, you can rent a redbox dvd from one location and return it at a different location.

You can go to the Rebbox site & check inventory on the Redbox kiosk of your choice. You can also returm at ANY Redbox kiosk.<BR/>-Robert McHenry<BR/>Concord, NHAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-83165198239211634382008-05-21T23:01:00.000-04:002008-05-21T23:01:00.000-04:00Would love to stop by but getting off work now and...Would love to stop by but getting off work now and then have a dentist appt. tomorrow, suhrry!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6208406.post-58602582741135575322008-05-21T22:57:00.000-04:002008-05-21T22:57:00.000-04:00@~dawn -- Don't know how far you are from Aurora T...@~dawn -- Don't know how far you are from Aurora Town Center, but I've got plenty of free time if you'd care to visit.
