    Any chance of adding Exp dates, if known? And maybe also another status line for "failed - one time use". I forget which code got that response for me.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    @CC112379: I have added Hy-Vee to the locations list.

    @erickwookie: I have added the new "One-time use" status option. I will be adding an expiration date for the codes, as well as a few others things, in the next update.

    Thanks!
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    Nice! Great job BTW. Also recently found your dvdplay site. Didn't realize there were a few of those around me as well. Gotta love free movies...
  • Sheri · 1 year ago
    I tried using several codes yesterday but none of them worked. Is the code only used once at each Red Box location? I'm still learning.
  • 8traxrule · 1 year ago
    Thanks for posting the Monday code early today- I was able to write it down this morning before leaving for work, and use it on the way home. I asked for Bee Movie and it gave me Deck The Halls, but for free I'm not complaining, I'll watch it anyways. I missed out on the last few because I don't have internet access at work and the Redboxes are too far to go to after getting home.

    Sometimes if you enter a promo code before selecting your movie, it will spend a minute processing then say "We are currently unable to process your promo code, please try again later." I got it to work by selecting the movie first, then at checkout hitting the "Add promo code" button.
  • pillsbury · 1 year ago
    Hey can i make my own promo code?
  • Rob · 1 year ago
    Has anyone checked out the Free HDTV offer? Do they really send you a free TV if you take advantage of 2 offers plus a survey? What's the catch? $300 in shipping and handling?? I want to know more b4 I take advantage of this offer.
  • Carlos · 1 year ago
    are there any codes that can be used again? or are they all one timers?
  • Carlos · 1 year ago
    oh p.s. can i re-use a promo code if i use it at a differnt location?
  • Lexie · 1 year ago
    In an e-mail that I received from redbox they said that the code MISSYOU will work till March 24th (3/24/08)

    Happy renting!
  • Z · 1 year ago
    SHOP is a code good at Stop & Shop (and I saw it advertised at one of their locations).
  • Dan · 1 year ago
    You can use the same promo card more than once only if you use a different credit card. You can get more free movies for however many cards you have.
  • anonymous · 1 year ago
    The codes 'breakroom', 'credit' and 'dvdonme' always work. If you're a new customer usually 'redbox' works to welcome you for joining. happy renting.
  • Jason · 1 year ago
    I've used promo codes more than once. The trick is....use a different credit card :)
  • freda louise · 1 year ago
    im a little confused. what does the percentage beside the code mean? that it works 100% of the time? or that it has been used up 100%?
  • bigshew · 1 year ago
    How about adding the raw totals for redeemed codes next to the %. Like "90% - 180/200".

    Percent can be misleading, ie. 100% could be just 1 of 1.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    @bigshew:

    That is what I use the highlighting system for. If a code has only been used once, it highlights in yellow. Green shows that it has been reported working recently and often.

    If you want to see more details, you can click on the code, which shows the complete history of that code. It includes the raw counts, too.

    Thanks!
  • GadgetKen · 1 year ago
    Like the coupon code section of your website as well as the new release list. Redbox still makes a profit off me on extra days on a weekend rental, or on reserved titles, so everybody's happy. Like the no monthly committment, no late charges, decent selection of new released DVD's, low rental rates, and long hours the Redbox machine is available.
    Redbox may want to consider adding Price Chopper supermarket to the list of locations. They have an outdoor machine in Connecticut near my office.
    Both video stores in my hometown closed recently so the Redbox machine in the local Stop and Shop supermarket has suddenly become extremely popular.
  • fingerling · 1 year ago
    Eventually, you may want to implement the use of a Turing test or something to verify that an actual person is submitting the code as a means to prevent automated spam. While this might not be a problem now, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

    (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captcha, for the uninitiated.)

    Also, having people re-type the code in a second text box for verification of accuracy will help to ensure that typos aren't submitted.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    @fingerling:

    Great comments. I do want to avoid the turing test, because I just think they are annoying. I do have a system in place to prevent automated code spam, though.

    I will be adding something soon that will alert the user if it is detected they are entering a new code, and require their confirmation. This should eliminate typos quite a bit.

    Thanks!
  • kw · 1 year ago
    For those of you with multiple credit cards the code works for each card only once. Monday codes are a bunch of jumbled #'s or letters and can only be used on a Monday. I can post them as soon as i get them in the morning.
  • bigshew · 1 year ago
    For some reason none of the codes were being accepted on Saturday morning 3/22. I tried 7 different ones. Anyone else have all codes rejected?
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    SPRING & MISSYOU were good this morning. THANKYOU, CREDIT & GIANT were no good (even at a GIANT - tried 2 diff locations!). Seems like nobody can get CREDIT to work after someone above said it always works? Guess they have a friend on the inside...
  • Anonymous · 1 year ago
    MISSYOU good as of 7:30 CST
  • anonymous · 1 year ago
    I guess the codes 'breakroom', 'credit', and 'dvdonme' doesn't work in all areas. Sorry about that. They always work in my area.
  • melisa · 1 year ago
    Can I rent online using a promo code??? if not, I think they should add it, that would be great!!
  • mmuscaro · 1 year ago
    you cannot rent online using a promo code.
  • bigshew · 1 year ago
    As I mentioned last Saturday, the Redbox at Walgreens in Chicago is rejecting all codes except for the Monday only code. Tried again Tuesday. Codes were working up to Saturday. Rejected codes: FREEHDTV, SPRING, BEEMOVIE, MISSYOU, DVDONME, THANKU, MARCH, 14FREE, THANKS, SPRINGBREAK, PRESIDENT, BUDDY, MOVIEONME.
    Tomorrow I'll try another location.
  • ANDY · 1 year ago
    There are specific code that work at specific location and store in your area. It is good for a long time.
    In Maryland at my local Giant, the code "GIANT" is working. I don't think it work in any other market.
  • Ruth · 1 year ago
    the code THANKS works,but you need to use a different credit card every time you use it.
  • cheyne · 1 year ago
    I have noticed many of the codes dont work. But they still show that they've been used over the past few days in other locations. Whats the deal?

    An example is the monday-only code. I missed the cutoff by a minute!! A guy in front of me took forever picking a movie at midnight and I missed out. But people are still posting that they used the code effectively on Tuesday and Wednesday. Whats the deal?

    I'm thinking it is error on the part of the person posting it here, not on the redbox end. What do you think?
  • pesh · 1 year ago
    Breakroom has worked for me 3 times at the same location. Like posted earlier you have to use different credit cards.
  • Michael in Kentucky · 1 year ago
    An above poster had asked about codes working more then once.

    The answer is yes, for a while, several codes would give 5 movies per credit/visa debit card. If I remember correctly, BREAKROOM, DVDONME were the only ones. But both have now been limited to 1 freebie per card. SERIES also gave 3 freebies per card for a time till it was disabled.

    I have yet to find another code that gives more then 1 but should anyone find another multiple freebie code please let us know.

    Hey boss, what about coding said multiple movie codes? maybe Blue? Or something should they appear?
  • mooeystitches · 1 year ago
    I have been using the codes and love the free movies. But now it is where I can only use the Monday code. Have 4 different cards that I use and today tried 7 codes at two locations with all 4 cards and it said either it was not a valid code or that I have already used the code. Any suggestions other than just waiting for Monday? From KY.
  • William · 1 year ago
    Soon after TRUMPET and BRAZIL were posted I tried them and reported that they did not work. Now I do not even see them on the list. What is the story? Was wondering if after the initial posting if any one was able to get them to work.
  • Lea · 1 year ago
    This is such a great site but I have one little comment or suggetion. Any chance of posting the latest comments first.. not last. That way, for those of us who check each day, we don't have to scroll all the way down looking for the newest ones. I admit .. I sound lazy, don't I?? Anyhow ....... keep up the great work.
  • Braque · 1 year ago
    I just got my second free rental on the same card using DVDONME - worth trying.
  • anonymous · 1 year ago
    I tried the codes HYVEE, IRONMAIDEN AND 9P56PGT and they didn't work.
  • Tyler · 1 year ago
    i tried miss you in NC and it dont work
  • bigshew · 1 year ago
    I finally got time to try all the codes that were rejected at Walgreens Chicago. Sadly, the same codes were nixed at Jewel/Osco. Anybody in Chitown getting codes to work other than the Monday only one?
  • y · 1 year ago
    to all users,

    has anyone tried to rent on the east coast fly to the west coast & return the rental by 9pm pacific time & not get an extra day of charge? is this even possible?
  • Postal Phil · 1 year ago
    Here is a suggestion, could you set up the codes as an RSS feed?
  • John · 1 year ago
    I have rented in Las Vegas and returned in CT after a long flight. Same day so no charges were incurred, but this proves you truly can return to any Redbox! I'm looking forward to more codes soon.
  • David T · 1 year ago
    Who services the machines?
  • myrona · 1 year ago
    Hello, I found a great way to spread the word about insideredbox.com I passed out card size papers with the website and free codes to Hy-Vee customers in Des Moines, I made a lot of people happy, I told them all to tell there friends, even the Store Managers did not know about the free code, HYVEE, long live insidrredvox.com
  • kw · 1 year ago
    Codes are being rejected in Utah what is up with that. It is like they know we are getting codes from this site and rejecting them as soon as they are posted.
  • Ricky Hawkinson · 1 year ago
    I am new to using red box movie rentals codes-i enjoyed all the movies except for two. The service has been great and will continue to keep using.
  • John · 1 year ago
    Is it possible to not add "Monday Only" codes to the ever growing list of codes? Also, when a code is "known" to be bad, and there are many that have not worked for a long long time, can you please remove them? Thanks.
  • Brutus Buckeye · 1 year ago
    This is a great site. I was curious as to what happens to the peeps who place the dirty/bogus codes?

    Example: The other day, C*CK TEEZ was the code and I LMAO on that one. Yesterday,the code was removed.

    The funny part,2 other peeps reported that code wouldn't work.
  • Dan · 1 year ago
    ^Those people reported it did not work so that it would be removed from the list of codes. When a code has a success rate of less than 33% it is removed from the list of codes.
  • Elena · 1 year ago
    How about adding option "Monday use only" - for those codes which are valid only on Mondays?
  • Santry05 · 1 year ago
    I have had great luck with both of the sites, although today i tried 5 codes at REDBOX and 3 codes at DVDPLAY and none of them worked. It is all just the luck of the draw i figure and it would help if more people logged in daily and let the rest of us know what works and what doesn't. Bottom line You still ROCK Michael!
  • Fred Kuzma · 1 year ago
    Are all the movies widescreen only ? I do not have a widescreen tv
    Hate the black lines on top and bottom. Please change all the Christmas movies in machine at zip 15714
  • Brutus Buckeye · 1 year ago
    Majority are Wide screen. I have to change the zoom(dvd player) to get rid of the annoying black bars. Alvin and Chipmunks is a flipper disc. Wide screen on A side, B side-which wasn't marked-Had the Full Frame/Full screen.

    Fred, sorry bud No disrespect intended.. but might as well get used to it.. with digital age in full swing finding a "Zoomed in" movie (aka full screen) that cuts off 1/2 the movie will become increasingly difficult to find.

    I just recently broke down and purchased several new Wide screen HDTVs, and now appreciate the Wide screen format and wouldn't go back to "Zoomed in" movies even if I was paid
  • Lynn · 1 year ago
    None of the codes are working in Oregon.What's going on?Is this the end of free codes?
  • sassy · 1 year ago
    i'm not sure if this is true but my friend said that if you don't use you're email addy on a credit card then you can use the code as many times as you want as redbox tracks the emails not the credit card numbers.
  • carmen0504 · 1 year ago
    breakroom works for me everytime i use it.....
  • Akoanino · 1 year ago
    Hi, I'm interested in franchising a redbox. I'm just wondering if someone can help me where to get the info. Any input is appreciated. Thanks
  • Steve · 1 year ago
    Hi Akoanino -

    I already called REDBOX and they are not going to be expanding via franchises.

    All Redbox machines and locations are corporate owned.

    I was disappointed too.

    But, just like STARBUCKS, no franchises.

    THE CODE NOFOOL. DO ANYONE KNOW WHEN THIS CODE EXPIRE?



    THANKS, BOB.
  • Steve · 1 year ago
    I USED NOFOOL just a few minutes ago, but I too would like to know how long I have before this one expires. Anyone?
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    I am pretty sure I heard that NOFOOL expires this coming Monday (Apr 8)... I guess we will see.
  • april · 1 year ago
    does this stuff really work .. do you still have to use your credit card with this promo code?
  • 8traxrule · 1 year ago
    You have to 'swipe' your credit card, that way they can charge you if you bring the movie back late or not at all. They won't charge anything if you return a free rental on time.

    Thanks for the new codes; couldn't get the Monday one in time this week since I have no computer access at work but used NOFOOL today.
  • David · 1 year ago
    Is there a Redbox release date for There will be Blood and Juno
  • andy · 1 year ago
    I was just curious how Redbox decide which movie to put in the box. Are they polling the customers?
  • mm22kids · 1 year ago
    Used NOFOOL at Stop and shop last night. Didn't work. I used SHOP. It worked. I'm in MA
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    I just used a new McDonalds Code in Iowa, MCSKLLT308, I passed out the code NOFOOL to customers at Dahl's in Des Moines, it quit working at one location now, the red box says can not take your promo code at this time, anyone no if that is permanent or not?
  • andy · 1 year ago
    @Myron
    The code still work. The redbox machine is rejecting the code temporarily. Try the code another day.
  • pesh · 1 year ago
    Used nofool twice at the same location. Works. Don't forget, must use different credit cards.
  • Troy · 1 year ago
    Do you know if Redbox will be allowing you to use the Promo Code via online rentals? It sure would be nice not to have to fight the touchy screen and cuss everytime it takes the letter above, below or beside the letter you are trying to type. Sucks on those cold or rainy days.....
  • Evolve · 1 year ago
    I left a code earlier.It should work over and over for the month of April. In Colorado

    MCSKLLT308
  • Brutus Buckeye · 1 year ago
    Did everybody get the redbox email about them finding a skimming device on one of the card readers of their kiosk?

    150 people may have gotten their card info stolen.

    Before sliding your card/s into a kiosk,make sure it doesn't have a weird looking contraption at the top of the normal card reader.

    Pics and all info about it is here:

    http://www.redbox.com/creditcardsecurity/
  • Vinane · 1 year ago
    Does anyone know how redbox makes money on the rentals? With the price of the kiosks and the DVD's I have trouble figuring out how they make money on this. And why do they have software engineers for DVD rentals? I checked out the job listings they have and it's like a corporations list of jobs. I can't imagine why they need all those positions if all they do is rent DVD's. When I was at a redbox a couple days ago there was someone from redbox doing something with the machine. As far as I could make out it looked like he was swapping out DVD's but I couldn't get a real good look so I'm not sure.
  • Myronanderson · 1 year ago
    Hi all, I thought the code MCSKLLT308 would only work at McDonalds, I was wrong, I used it at Dahl's and got a free movie today, thanks Evolve.
  • Lisa · 1 year ago
    I would love to see inside the redbox and see how it works.
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    Much to my surprise MCSKLLT308 worked for me 3x at Giant yesterday. Of course BREAKROM did not. Look at what you are typing people...
    NOFOOL is still good.
  • lharris · 1 year ago

  • k8e · 1 year ago
    I used ALVIN14, NOFOOL, MCSKLLT308, AND DVDONME in Austin, TX today at 9 am...All still work :)
  • Robin Freeman · 1 year ago
    I have tried several codes and they almost always come up invalid. I wish you could keep the list updated so You wouldn't have to stand in line at the redbox punching in code after code and being rejected. I live in Merriam,Kansas and go to McDonalds to get the movies.
  • Robert Pfeiffer · 1 year ago
    You can't return to just any redbox machine. Most machines have the return slot on the side, but some have slots near the bottom with smaller slots. The dvd cases are of different sizes. I've also found that 7-11 stores in my area (Nevada) chare $1.50 not 99cents!
  • BOB · 1 year ago

  • Joey Y · 1 year ago
    What is up with the bogus-looking codes? Some don't look or sound legit at all since the code names sound like "negative" words... who posts those and how do those codes get posted. I haven't tried any of the bogus-looking codes so far.
  • p diidy · 1 year ago
    How do i use the codes? is there a place to type them in?
  • Wendy · 1 year ago
    I used the promo code's ... Alvin14, mcskllt308 in Utah today and they worked great. :)
    It's been awhile since i've gotten any promo codes to
    work at all around here unless it's a new card and I use the codes I already knew!! :)
  • Brutus Buckeye · 1 year ago
    My email header today read " Spring Fever". Someone may wanna try that one.

    Alvin14 still working for me in Ohio. I left my notes with the other codes at home this morning.

    p diddy: Touch the screen to start.You'll see "enter promo code" key-lower left corner- and press it.Type in the code and enter.If code works,the screen opens up to the movie list-in alphabetical order. If code doesn't take,it'll be a red screen saying "Sorry,code is no longer valid".

    If the screen accepts the code,make sure when you check out,it says $0 for rental charges.Once in a while,it'll still show $1.07 for me. Usually 1 code works per 1 card. 4 different cards,4 free rentals. Takes longer,but the price is right.
  • DenCha · 1 year ago
    I just used "BREAKROOM" and rented a DVD, but notice my credit card is pending a $1.00 transaction from RedBox...Did the code work or not?

    How do you know if the code doesn't work?
  • Lisa · 1 year ago
    Yes, how do you know if the code works? I still had to use my credit card.
  • ARMED777 · 1 year ago
    MCSKLLT308 WORKED AT LUCKYS/ALBERTSONS AT HAYWARD, CA (SOUTHLAND MALL) GOT ONE MOVIE OUT OF IT.
  • missesheather · 1 year ago
    Used MCSKLLT308 and ALVIN14 today at Albertson's in Richardson, TX around noon. These are still working for me.

    I see pending $1 transactions on my card too, but it usually disappears after I have received the receipt from Redbox (whenever I choose to get a receipt via email). Also, at times when I choose not to have a receipt, I just see it disappear in the pending charges of my credit card and they never bill me.
  • john · 1 year ago
    Thank you for the codes and could u take out the ones that don 't work and the code datenight worked for me could u give me some new ones please thank you and if anybody has xbox live codes my email is johnnonyc2@hotmail.com
  • BOB · 1 year ago
    HELPFUL HINTS : USING THE CODES

    1. LOOK AT LIST OF CODE USE THE ONE IN GREEN.

    2. LOOK AT THE CODE HISTORY AND SUCCESS RATE.

    3. JUST REMEMBER TO RENT ONE MOVIE WITH CODE. YOU CAN USED THE SAME CODE MORE THAN ONCE IF YOU HAVE MORE CREDIT CARDS.

    4. MAKE SURE THE CODE YOU PICKED HAS NOT BEEN USED ALREADY BY YOURSELF.

    GREAT WORK MICHEAL!

    @missesheather:

    How long does it usually take to have the pending charge disappear from your CC account?
  • Nikki · 1 year ago
    The "pending charges" or the pre-authorization on your online credit card statement typically drop off in 2 to 3 days, unless you don't return the DVD.
  • Joseph · 1 year ago
    @ BOB, Redbox tracks credit card, not email address. It doesn't matter you put the email address or not, most codes can be used only once per credit card.
  • NYY · 1 year ago
    Two Quick Questions:

    What happens if you try to use the same credit card over and over again with the same code? Will it give you an error message or will it just charge your card $1.00 anyway?

    Does anyone think they will catch on if you use the same credit card 5 days in a row with 5 different codes? I'm worried they are going to start to wonder where i get all the codes from...

    Any response is appreciated!
  • 8traxrule · 1 year ago
    The machine will tell you if you've already used a code with the credit card after it's read, then you can decide to pay anyways or cancel. The code REDBOX is only for first-time renters, I didn't know about that one til I had already rented with my 4 credit cards but I just got a new one (which I don't intend to buy anything with!) so I can use that with it, then the other codes that are still valid. Can't rent anything on Fri-Sun though since they're too far to return on days when I'm not going to work!

    WHAT EVER HAPPEN TO THE PROMO CODE REDBOX SEND OUT ON TUESDAY VIA E-MAIL. I STILL GET IT BUT EVERY TIME THE CODE IS DVDONME WHICH I HAVE USED. ANYONE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM? JUST CURIOUS.
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    I only ever received 2 emails from Redbox a few months ago and they were the DVDONME & BREAKROOM codes when I originally signed up my email. No emails since. All the other codes I have used I only find here. I found other sites claiming to have redbox codes, but the codes found there are always outdated or already on here. I don't know where the original posters gets their new codes from?
  • Me · 1 year ago
    I noticed on another site that it said that sometimes codes are printed at the bottom of your receipt when renting at the actual redbox. Hmm what receipt? I have never ever gotten a printed receipt. Did I turn that feature off the first time or something? I did give them my email address and they SEND me a receipt. When I checkout, it doesnt ask me, just says dispensing my movie, then it shows the screen like a new person could walk up. How do I start getting a receipt. Does the email receipt have codes? Any help appreciated. TIA.

    I was wondering whether any one tried this website and signed up for their offers in order to get the Free HDTV and any other test panel items. They claim that they will send 3 free products in 90 days.

    My question is, whether site is legitimate and whether they fulfil their product promises, after signing up the two offers.

    Any response to this question is greatly appreciated.

    Can you maybe add one more column - NOTE - something short. There we can add. New customer/new card only - like for REDBOX code. Or Store specific (like only valid for McDonalds). Or Monday code only, etc, etc. Thanks.

  • adam · 1 year ago
    These fake codes are getting out of hand. I mean they are vulgar not funny, and then people are trying them which wastes everyones time, from the person trying it to the person behind them waiting to use the machine. Also people PLEASE don't post one time only codes. IF you have a messed up dvd and Redbox gives you a code for a replacement movie it is A ONE TIME ONLY CODE!
  • Biff · 1 year ago

  • cheaterboy3007 · 1 year ago
    Okay, this is my first comment on this site and would like to ask if you put the code FREELAPTOP in the slot on the screen. What would happen?
  • REDBOX OUTSIDER · 1 year ago
    I am thinking maybe only registered people should put up codes, because these are really bad. I mean really. How trashy are people to put in these codes. Do you think you are funny? Instead of putting up fake and vulgar codes, maybe you should go back to making love to your sister. That would work out a lot better. Just stay off the internet in total. Stick to being perves in myspace.

    Adam:Here's what Dan wrote on april 1:

    [quote]"Those people reported it did not work so that it would be removed from the list of codes. When a code has a success rate of less than 33% it is removed from the list of codes".[/quote]


    With these bogus perverted codes like the one listed as F*** You,people like myself may not be actually testing them out,but listing them as invallid to get them below that 33% and then they'll disappear from the board.

    I helped get rid of a couple the last 2 days,something about INDAB*** and others can help out on ridding the FU bogus code..

    Michael: If you don't like that route I take by maring Invallid to eliminate those perverted bogus codes,post back and I'll stop.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    @Brutus Buckeye: What you are doing is fine, and is actually currently the preferred method. For myself, as soon as I see an obvious spam code, I delete it from the system.

    In the next update of the codes system, I will be implementing moderation for all new codes that are entered. This means they will not show up at all until a moderator or myself approves the code for display. This will completely eliminate spam-type codes.

    Because of this, I will need to have a few volunteers to become moderators for the system to help me stay on top of things.

    Also, the entry of spam codes into the system will result in the banning of the offending user from the site.

    Thanks everyone for your help in keeping this problem as minimal as possible by marking the offending codes as "failed" until this new system is in place.
  • Tracy · 1 year ago
    Can you add Farmer's Foods to the Virginia list? I report on their code validity often! Either way, THANK YOU for a great site! *off to click on some ads in thanks!*
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    The only thing I don't like about the moderation of codes is the Monday code. If someone could post it in the comments here as soon as it comes out that would be great. I don't know why redbox can't just email the code instead of text messages, but then again I never get any emails from them anymore anyway? I'm not going to pay another 9.99 a month for text messaging. I find myself waiting in the Giant parking lot with a TREO for hours after work waiting to see what the new code is before going home for the day (night shift).
    BTW I tried to mark codes as failed but it only let me do it once? I even tried using other stores to get the idiotic codes off the board but it only took my 1st entry?
  • 2 erickwookie · 1 year ago
    Waiting for a code for hours is not a rational decision. The value of the code is $1.
  • mooeystitches · 1 year ago
    The local Kroger has MovieCube also known as The New Release machines. Is there a website to get codes to use in their machines?
  • erick · 1 year ago
    I don't know where you live "2",but gas here is 3.69. Closest redbox is about 20 miles from my house. The value of the code is more than 1 dollar if you take into consideration the # of cards you have and the cost of fuel. I can easily stop by several Giants or Redners or Aharts on the way home from work without wasting any fuel. But since you aren't concerned about saving $,I'm not sure why you are even here. Is that not why we are all here? Keep in mind this is coming from an irrational Wookie...what would I know?

    So where are you guys getting codes like LOUZOO & MAYDAY from? If it's from an email or text message from Redbox are they giving an expiration date???
  • jrutkiewicz14 · 1 year ago
    You can use each code only one time per credit card. However, if you have multiple credit cards, you can use each code once per card. For instance I have a debit cand and two credits, so i can use each code three time. Just thought I'd throw that one out there for those of you who didn't know
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    I guess nobody seems to know where these codes are coming from but on another board I saw someone mention MAYDAY expires May 6th. Don't know if it's true or not.

  • Cee · 1 year ago
    Leave it to greed. One dollar rental and one free rental a week isn't good enough. You have to steal from redbox. What ever happened to honor?
  • meagan80 · 1 year ago
    Just wanted to reply to Cee. I think that redbox knows that people share their codes, if they did not want it done, they would make all codes one time use only. I had never rented with redbox til I got on this site and got some free codes, now I use a free code sometimes and i pay sometimes, so they are getting money from me that they would not have without this site...and I bet I am not the only one.
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    Cee, how the hell are we stealing from Redbox? Did someone mention actually breaking into the box that I missed?
    They give away daily codes on Mon & Wed and on top of that they keep coming up with new various weekly codes?
    Why wouldn't they just stick with breakroom and dvdonme and that would be that? If someone is offering something for free and you take it is that stealing? Geez.
  • John · 1 year ago
    Instead of listing codes as "expired" why not actually remove them? It seems like it would take the same amount of work. Also, codes that are known to be expired could be set up so as they can not be re-entered again by mistake. Much like "FREELAPTOP" is not a working code and is unable to be deleted by users other codes could easily be set up as to not be entered by users including common swears.
  • John · 1 year ago
    I clicked the "SUPPORT US AND SAVE $$$ - JUST ENTER YOUR ZIP CODE" to help out with ad revenue for the site and it directed me away from insideredbox.com. Is it possible to set it up to open a new window?

    Redbox Indiser Rocks, love it or leave it!

    SamPleaz
  • 4rick · 1 year ago
    My guess is that codes for "free" movie rentals generate revenue for Redbox in numerous ways. The movie isn't entirely free because you have to go to a redbox location, a cost in time and transportation. As such, users that acknowledge these costs are more likely to keep a dvd for more than one day and pay for additional days if their viewing plans changed or if returning to the redbox is the only reason for going out. Also, users that want to rent a movie and pay because a redbox code isn't available when they want it, may be more likely to visit a redbox than a competitor because of factors like familiarity, loyalty and convenience. In addition, Redbox may benefit from the increased traffic free codes produce for the hosting location. Anyway, thanks to all that contribute to this site, and thanks to Redbox
  • Jeter · 1 year ago
    If you think the free redbox code is kind of advertisement then that is what they are doing. People line up at the Redbox machine to create some other people's attention is better than spend money on TV or newspaper. Also, give out the free code is better than let the DVD stay inside the machine and do nothing. They give out the code around mid-day so you only actually have a night to watch the movie. If your time and schedule do not allow that, then you probably keep the movie for one more day, redbox start make money now. In addition, if you forget to return it, then redbox make money again. At one time, I forgot to return a movie for two days and have to pay for 2 days. So, it is a calculate cost, redbox is doing, otherwise, they will not do it at all.
  • myrona · 1 year ago
    Hi all, and Michael, I was at a redbox in iowa when the serviceman was working on it, I got to see the inside and how it works, the dvds are in the cases in a circle at different levels, it spins around then up or down to the location of your movie, that is why the door is slanted, I did not have a camera, but the man said there lawyers had been in contact with the person wanting a picture of the inside, any truth to that? He said he was going to buy stock for sure.
  • HELPMICK · 1 year ago
    I posted this in the wrong thread. I hope someone on here can help.

    I used a code for the first time today.

    Is it okay to use more than one code with the same credit card on the same day?

    I used MILLER & DVDONME with same credit card on the same visit. It worked fine, but now I'm thinking perhaps it is one code per card per day.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks
  • Elena · 1 year ago
    Hi HELPMICK,

    No problem - you can use 1 code per 1 card!
    But you always start with REDBOX - this code only works if the card has never been used.

    After using REDBOX - you can use DVDONME and BREAKROOM - those are valid always, never expire.

    Then you can use Free Monday and Wednesday codes and other codes which are coming up on this board (most are valid for a short period of time; some are valid only at specific locations, like only at Walgreens, etc).
  • Wildespirit · 1 year ago
    Has anyone noticed if you offer someone else in line a free code, they look at you like you're insane? Several times I've been using a code and I've asked the people behind me if they want a code for a free movie. I've actually had people tell me no.....strange.

    I entered the code and I didn't get any error messages. everything worked and the movie came out. but when i checked my bank account it still charged for redbox
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    Hey alien,
    Was the charge exactly 1.00 or 1+tax? If it's exactly 1.00 then rest assured it will come off in a few days. They will always do a 1.00 authorization to be sure it is a legitimate charge card.
  • Myself · 1 year ago
    Breakroom only works one time per credit card. Meaning you can use it again if you use a different card. You're better off creating an account where they will send you free codes to use on Mondays and Wednesdays.
  • alien · 1 year ago
    it was just $1.00

    Wildespirit - I have. They also get really startled when I turn around and start talking to them.

    I've never had anyone turn a free code down though.

  • Myron · 1 year ago
    Hyvee only works at Hy-Vee Food Stores in the Midwest. Expiration Date Unknown.
  • Rachel S. · 1 year ago
    Thanks Myron. Also, noticed since I asked the question (well, at least I did not notice before I asked it so maybe just a "duh moment" on my part) that it now has in parenthesis where some of these codes can be used; i.e. HYVEE at Hyvee, NTREASURE2 at Osco, etc.
  • SamPleaz · 1 year ago
    Thanks for your input I already went to redbox before I got your post. I agree "Air I Breathe" was not good at all extremely hard to follow and very gloomy. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. However, "Cleaner" was pretty good although it was kind of sad it was good overall. I relly liked the awesome acting performance of Samuel L. Jackson he was superb. Eva Mendes was kind of hot too!
  • Elena · 1 year ago
    Proposal:

    - to color backgrounds for expired codes in color
    - to color backgrounds for "valid-in-certain-stores" codes in blue color
    - green - would be general valid anywhere codes
    - yellow - anything else you like

    ALSO - I would create an extra Field and extra Column calling where valid. So if it's working, you would pick "Working" and then field "anywhere", "only at mcdonalds", etc.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    @Elena:

    Thanks for the suggestions. I have considered adding some new background colors and a key for them. I'll look more closely at that.

    There is already a field for saying where the code was used, which serves pretty effectively for finding location-only codes. Since most users will not know a code is only for a specific location, I don't think have a separate menu for that would help.

    If you do know more details about a code (like where it works or when it expires) please leave it as a comment and I will update the system.

    Thanks!

    Are Wednesday codes continuing into June?

    June 2 code is D77FY8
  • refreshen · 1 year ago
    Thanks Kara
  • melis · 1 year ago
    You can use the same code more than once but you have to use a different credit card. If you have a few cards the codes will work for each one! Try it out...
  • shorehaven · 1 year ago
    Anybody know if Redbox is still going to have the free Wednesday code?
  • Ron B · 1 year ago
    I hope so, but it is not looking good. Wednesday/Thursday was always a better movie time for me than Monday/Tuesday. But, it is hard to be critical when you are getting free codes.
  • Robin Freeman · 1 year ago
    I called redbox today to see if they were going to give out a free code for Wednesdays in June and they said no. So I guess we were lucky to get May ones.
  • Robin Freeman · 1 year ago
    No free codes for Wednesdays in June. I called Redbox todat to find out and they said no. Hope this helps everybody who was looking for an answer.
  • shorehaven · 1 year ago
    Thanks Robin for checking with Redbox about the Wednesday codes. I guess we can't be greedy and besides that if everyone only rented movies using free codes then Redbox might go out of business or raise the prices to compensate for the free movies.

    Im new to this since my area just got them in.

    So ive been using one of these free code when i signed up this morning then i entered 2 other free codes, and it worked, but the question that is really concerning me is, would i get caught for entering like 2 codes on the same cc in 1 day or so, or it wouldnt matter.
  • Ashley · 1 year ago
    Hello,
    I too am new to this free codes thing...So my question is this, can you used more then one code at a time so that you don't have to swipe your credit card more than once.

    I mean I don't want to have to swipe my card more then once because there are usually several people waiting to rent or return movies behind me and I don't like holding up the line if I don't have to. So I just want to know if there is a way to order all the movies I want with different free codes but only swipe once. Thank you for helping me out.

    Does anyone know where the code THX608 came from and how long it is valid?
    Thanks
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    Nope. 1 at a time. 1 swipe per card & code for each movie you want.
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    Good luck. I've asked several times on other codes and nobody seems to know where they came from or when they expire!
  • kyle · 1 year ago

  • James · 1 year ago
    It probably came from the Redbox website.. They give you A code for signing up.
  • berdiesan · 1 year ago
    ERICKWOOKIE IS WRONG. You can use more than one code at a time. Did it myself when I used "MILLER" and "FREEDVD4ME" and I have seen other redbox users do the same thing. All you have to do is keep pressing the rent w/promo code option at the bottom of the screen before checking out.
  • john · 1 year ago
    If you keep using these codes wont you get caught? espically using the same credit card?

    thanks,

  • BSN · 1 year ago
    This is a community website where people subscribe to new codes $$$$$$$$ and pay for it. Well they also give us the codes by putting them on the website. There is no posted date when given/started/removed/end! Does it really matter, should really be the question! NOPE....its just free to the people that use it! So with this being America....Choose to or Choose not it matters little.
  • wendylc · 1 year ago
    I stopped getting redbox codes in my email months ago. I tried re-registering; still nothing. My co-worker was giving me codes, but then she stopped getting them. Anyone know why this happened or how to fix it?

    Thanks to you all, I've got free rentals again, and I can "pay back" my co-worker for the codes she gave me.
  • theresa · 1 year ago
    no, you won't get in trouble. However, you can't use the same code more than once on the same card . It tells you it was already used. You can use the same code on different cards though even in the same account name.
  • theresa · 1 year ago
    I tried that one yesterday and it didn't work for me. One at a time is how it goes. I even tried to place two codes on one card and it didn't reshow the use promo code box. For some it might work, but for me it didn't.
  • Lauren · 1 year ago
    You can use more than one at a time. The key is to enter the codes in the CHECK OUT screen, not on the home screen. When you are checking out, you'll see an option something like "Add promo code." You should be able to add as many as you have at that point, and you'll get a dollar off each time.
  • ksnyde2 · 1 year ago
    breakroom still running strong
  • techie775 · 1 year ago
    These promo codes are awesome! But occasionally you could buy a rental so we don't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs and red box changes their policy or goes out of business. 5 dvd rentals for a buck isn't bad...
  • clothtopz28 · 1 year ago
    thanks mommy, I'll keep that in mind.
  • dcamp · 1 year ago
    New customer here: Just returned a movie to Wal-Mart that I got for free using BREAKROOM. Movie got stuck in slot so I decided to rent another disc using a code I found on this site, THX608, to see if it would unjam the jammed one. Proceeded through the checkout and Redbox accepted code but I got an error message from the machine because the slot was blocked. It canceled my transaction. As I was walking away, someone approached with 2 returns to make. I told him that the machine was not working because of the "jammed" movie. He quickly reached in his pocket and pulled out a 'leatherman tool' (one of those folding utility tool/knife thingys). Anyway, after a couple minutes of poking and pulling, he retrieved the wayward disc and case and we reinserted it successfully. He made his 2 returns and rented another. When I finished my shopping, I stopped by to make another rental. The THX608 code didn't work this time but DVDONME did. Thanks Redbox. And thanks insideredbox for this site to exchange codes!
  • wildsissy · 1 year ago
    Hi everyone..

    while "breakroom" and "miller" type codes worked like a charm for me, the monday/wednesday codes NEVER work for me... I live in Illinois and go to Jewel/Osco to rent my movies. Does anyone have any idea why those codes never work for me.

    Also, I finally got one email from redbox giving me a code, but none since that first email. I still do not recieve texts (which I signed up for several times) or any emails to any of the email addresses that I've signed up with. Strange that I can recieve the confirmation emails from redbox with no issue but never a "freebie" code!
  • Maven · 1 year ago
    Hey,

    Those of you still getting the Monday / Wednesday codes, please post them, either in the DB or in a post! I have stopped getting the text message for some reason and never got them in email, despite signing up.
  • Maven · 1 year ago
    It just gives you the first night free. So if you end up forgetting to return it or get busy, and keep it for another day or two, you do get charged. They aren't going bankrupt on giving 1 day away free. Life gets busy and they know that, many people don't get them returned in 24 hours or rent more than they can watch in 24 hours.
  • Kara · 1 year ago
    June 9 code is 6TK2A3, good until midnight.
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    you sure are having some strange problems. maybe i'm just lucky. i live in Illinois also, and as you, go to Jewel/Osco, but i have no problems using codes that are active. i always receive the Monday code and in May, the Wednesday code. however, because they come so late thru the email, i usually use what's been posted in the blog rather than wait. i don't have a cellphone, so don't receive a text.

    only problem i do have at redbox, is finding a movie i like. i have rented more movies i would never rent normally, just because i have a free code. guess this is kind of silly, but i figure, my total walk there and back will be over 2 miles, i'm going to rent something.

    and because i have 4 credit cards, i rent 4 movies. i think i need an "Intervention".
  • missesheather · 1 year ago
    So, I just got an email from Redbox to take a survey.. At the end it says: REDBOX SAYS, "THANKYA." Are the quotes trying to indicate that THANKYA is a new code just for taking the time to take the survey?? I guess I won't know until I try it after work... ;)

  • Myronanderson · 1 year ago
    Michael, I just entered the code FLAGIT twice, not showing up on the list, I signed in and tried it, still a no show, used the code twice today.
    What gives
    Thanks
  • John · 1 year ago
    I think the "popular.Newly added, and expired" color coding is a great idea. May I suggest making them clickable so as we can see them grouped together to make it easier? Or simply grouping them together yourself via the administrator options. Thanks again for a great site.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    @Myronanderson: All new codes are moderated and need to be approved before they show up on the list. I implemented this a month ago to stop spam and abusive codes from being entered.

    I am notified each time a new code is entered, and I try to get them approved ASAP.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    @John: Thanks for the suggestion. I have thought a little about this, and I may implement something similar in the future.

    For now, I like keeping the codes in the order that shows the most recently used first, even if there are some expired codes in there.
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    i just used FLAGIT 3 times. maybe its not good in your area. im in the Chicago suburbs and used it at Jewel/Osc.

  • John - Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Thanks for the code Myronanderson. I was out of free rentals til I saw your post ahead of when Michael added it. I understand the need for the delay though as well. It would probably never even be an issue if it were not the only new code on Tuesday! :-)
  • John - Las Vegas · 1 year ago

    "297 Comments so far" When do they reset?
  • John - Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    I was wondering..... When I get a movie for free via a code I always try to return it as soon as possible. It is my way of saying "Thank you, here is the movie back so you can turn a profit on it faster." Sometimes it is the same day. More often then not actually. Does anyone else think this way?
  • Lord Aqueron · 1 year ago
    I just used on Monday the code DVDONME in Caguas, Amigo(Walmart) Supermarket and it worket just great. Yesterday I used the code BREAKROOM and without a problem. I only have one issue. The movie was all damage. In that case REDBOX have to make some weekly or monthly inspection of the DVD's to solve this issue. Either way this will generate a domino effect that no one will rent a DVD because you don't have anyone to claim for your money back.

  • Jonathan · 1 year ago
    Question: Can I use a code more than once if I just use a different card? How do you guys do it??
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    If you call redbox at 1-866-REDBOX3 and tell them you got a defective movie, you will need the last 4 digits of the credit card, they will give you a one time use code for a free rental, that is good for 45 days.
    Myron A
  • lord.aqueron · 1 year ago
    SUPER EXTRA DUPER THANKS...!
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    You can use each code once with different cards, if you try to use the same code over with one card, it will tell you the code was already used with that card, you can then put in a different code. for a free movie.
  • Joel · 1 year ago
    I use different cards with the same codes all the time! We have 4 different cards that we rent with, and typically are able to use the same code all four times! RB just matches the zip code to each card, not the name on the accounts!

    BTW- A friend found out that I am using codes for free movies (because I excitedly told him), and his reply was "dude, it's only a dollar".
  • Sarah · 1 year ago
    Can you use redbox codes if you rent movies online?
  • ben · 1 year ago
    fyi: the zip code you put in doesn't matter. I dont even know why they ask for it. Just type in any zip code after you swipe your card and it will still autorize, as long as its a active card.
  • Jonathan · 1 year ago
    Thanks for the replies! I'm going to try a different card tonight. I can verify that (for me at least, at the Wal-Mart grocery store Redboxes) you cannot use the same codes with the same card. It may be partly because I linked the first card with my email (to reserve a movie online) so it displays my email each time I swipe the card. Two other cards are not linked to anything so I will use those.

    And I thought this was damn funny: "dude, it's only a dollar"

    DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHY "CLEANER" CAN'T BE FOUND ANYWHERE HERE IN ATLANTA, GEORGIA? IS THIS MOVIE AVAILABLE IN YOU OTHER GUYS' STATES?
  • helpmick2 · 1 year ago
    How long does the redbox kiosk store the information on codes with certain credit cards? I usually forget which code I’ve used with which credit card and end up waiting for a new code to be posted. If the kiosk remembers which codes have been used with which cards, it would definitely help me out.

    In other words, if I use code BREAKROOM with a card week 1, and try to use BREAKROOM with the same card on week 2, will it warn me that the code has already been used with that card?
    Thanks

    (I think I posted this in the wrong place earlier)
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    @helpmick2:

    Why not just use this site's Code History system to keep track of the codes you use for you?

    I see that you have an account and are signed in, so as long as you enter the codes you have used in the system, the "My Code History" link will tell you when and with what cards you have used the codes.

    Does that help?
  • helpmick2 · 1 year ago
    I try to do that, but I can't even remember which card I've just used when i'm at the kiosk. So, trying to remember when I get home is reeaaalllyy stretching it. LOL

    I'm definitely gonna try to get more organized though. Just wondering if the kiosk can actually remember for me.
  • Strawberry · 1 year ago
    The kiosk does tell you. I've forgotten that I used a code, and tried it on the same card, and it came up and told me that that code had already been used on that card.

  • andymac445 · 1 year ago
    Hey everyone. How many times have you walked by a redbox and wished you had a code to use? I've built a small text messaging app where you can send a text message to get current codes. I'm still testing it so please send me any bugs you find. To use it, just send the word 'REDCODE' to 41411. It's pretty cool cause it also lets you add to your list of already used codes so that they don't display for you any longer. Let me know what you think. Thanks.
  • andymac445 · 1 year ago
    There's a Smith's here in Albuquerque that has 2 redbox machines side by side.
  • Chris · 1 year ago
    Texting 41411, is that a free service, so that only standard text message rates apply?
  • andymac445 · 1 year ago
    Yeah, it's free. I just made it to use as a tool for myself and figured I would share it with the Redbox community.
  • Jonathan · 1 year ago
    The Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market in zip-32828 only has one machine, and let me say that there is almost always a line at least 7 people long. On Friday the line was over 20 long, and going out the door blocking the entire entrance to the store. It was quite funny since the entire line broke out in a yelling match in Spanish at each other and I thought there was going to be a riot. They absolutely need to put in another machine! I will be shopping elsewhere soon.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    Thanks for the info, Andy. I was unaware of this TextMarks service until you made this comment. I am not sure how I missed it, as I am usually on top of things like this! :)

    I think I will work on integrating this service into the site so that it works directly with the current codes system. If you have any suggestions/ideas on this, let me know.

    So I still can't log in...

    David,

    Can you try it one more time for me. I just went in and reset all the of activation codes, which means it should generate a new link for you when you request your password.

  • Myron · 1 year ago
    I tried REDBOX after having already rented with the same credit card, it said code was for new customers only, so I used a different credit card and it took the code. You just need a new card that has not been used.
  • ILUVFREEMOVIES · 1 year ago
    REDBOX is for new customers only so you should have used that code first. I used DVDONME next, then BREAKROOM. Use other codes after the 3 I listed.
  • princessh · 1 year ago
    So Let me get this straight. Regarding the list of codes you are susposed to go in order and down the list for it to work??
  • Vic · 1 year ago
    The codes are one time use per credit card that you use. I have two cards I use on Monday and Wednesday and get 4 free rentals. Your "account" is identified by your credit card, not your email (if you use it); so, it doesn't matter what order you go in, but remember that some codes will expire before others. Once a code is used on your credit card, it is in their system. They nicely let you know it has already been used.

    If you submit redbox your email when renting a movie, they will send you an invite to sign onto their site...once there, if you enroll and allow them to send txt to your phone, they will send you a free code in appreciation (redbox)...then every Monday and Wednesday you'll get a free code. This code is a one-time use also, but you are encouraged to send it to your friends. The "free rental" helps the consumer become accustomed to the ease and reduced fee of renting from redbox versus blockbuster, hollywood video, movie gallery, netflix...

    This company is already kicking you know what in towns that have a McDonalds but no video rental stores! If it is a publicly traded company, stock in it might be a great investment.

    I see that some of the codes that are marked as expired have been used recently. Are some of the expired codes still able to be used? Or, are people just entering the wrong dates when reporting usage?


    I don't usually try the expired codes; however, if it is common that they still work past the expiration date, I may start trying some.


    Thanks for any help.

    There in a new Redbox machine at the "Dissmores IGA" grocery store in Pullman, WA. It needs to be added to the list.

    Wow, tried one of them today and it worked! Wonder where these weird codes are coming from?
  • Sheri · 1 year ago
    I miss Wednesday codes too!!! :(
  • Sheri · 1 year ago
    Thanks for the tip! I never thought about using another card for REDBOX. I guess it will work with DVDONME and BREAKROOM??
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    All new codes are moderated to prevent spam and offensive codes. They were approved last night and are showing up now.

    Everyone, please do not report a code working more than once unless you actually used it more than once.

    Thanks!
  • moviefan · 1 year ago
    What happened to Wednesday codes?
  • Lauren · 1 year ago
    Anyone else having problems with Redbox machines recognizing ANY codes today? I tried 2 different boxes here in Arkansas, and both of them just said "Processing code" for about 30 seconds, then said, "Sorry, we can't process your code right now. Please try again later."
  • craigpb · 1 year ago
    For the 3rd time in the past month I wasn't able to use more than 2 codes per card when I used to be able to get at least 3 free dvds per card at a time. Everytime I try to use a 3rd code per card, it says it can't authorize it so I just have to use another card.

    BTW, all 3 of the weird codes work. The 3rd one not yet on the list is 6B1LVS6, which I got from cathie a little bit below.

    Wednesday codes were a special offering during the Month of May only. I wish they'd come back too!
  • Vic · 1 year ago
    FYI...good news...this statement is straight from the press release issued by REDBOX last month. You can see it on their website.
    "For Immediate Release: May 1, 2008
    Oakbrook Terrace, Ill. – Redbox Automated Retail, LLC, which provides a fully automated
    DVD rental system featuring new release rentals for $1 per night, today announced that it intends
    to file a registration statement for an initial public offering of common stock, subject to market
    conditions. Redbox expects to file the registration statement with the Securities and Exchange
    Commission during the second quarter of 2008.
    This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, nor a solicitation of an offer to buy, any
    securities of redbox, which will be made only by a prospectus."
    Seeing how the second quarter ends soon, keep your eyes on redbox.com. They will most likely notify email subscribers with information.
    What that means to us as consumers is a greater possibility of growth and therefore, competition from the "blockbusters, hollywood video/movie gallery" crowd.
    Middle-Classers like me will jump at the opportunity to invest some cash in a growing company like this.
  • Lauren · 1 year ago
    My problem didn't have anything to do with my card. I pressed "Rent with a promo code" and it couldn't process, no matter what the code was (even with breakroom). It was like it couldn't communicate with RB homebase or something. Of course at this point I hadn't even put in my card yet. Anyway, I'm hoping it's fixed now!! I was just wondering if anyone else had the same problem.
  • Lauren · 1 year ago
    I tried HIDAD (Mother's Day code was HIMOM, so I thought it might be worth a try), FATHER, and DADSDAY just to see, and none of them worked.
  • Lauren · 1 year ago
    Yes, this works with every code, including Monday codes and holiday codes.
  • Lauren · 1 year ago
    Same thing for me! I signed up multiple times as AT&T and never got the texts. After signing up as Cingular, I've been getting them ever since.
  • ande · 1 year ago
    I know I tired it too... I guess Dads just aren't as important as Mom's are. Dad's can't even get a free movie. Lol, you think the person in charge of making the codes is a women.
  • isaac · 1 year ago
    make sure you make it a zero and not the letter o i struggled with that but all the codes worked, why suddenly release 3 weird codes!?
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    I was handing out free codes at a local market, I overloaded the redbox and that is the message it gave until the next day, when it started taking the code again.
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    The redbox website was partially down this morning, showing no online rental at all locations, that may have been the problem.
  • helpmick2 · 1 year ago
    I had the exact same problem last night at around 7:55 p.m. central. It was especially annoying since I had to stand in line for about 15 minutes beforehand. After entering the promo code the machine would say "routing" for about 15 seconds, and then "unable to process promo code at this time". Never had that happen before.
  • Lauren · 1 year ago
    Hmmm, I'm hoping it's just a server error or something then. I'll try again today.
  • luck3yone · 1 year ago
    Been using this site for quite a while just never took the time to register - great site to be apart of however! I just want to thank Kathy for posting two of the three weird codes! When i checked on here wednesday to see if there was a wednesday code and couldnt find one i lucked out in seeing her post and wound up getting a free movie afterall! So kudos to you Kathy!!!
  • luck3yone · 1 year ago
    Just wanted to add in a few opinons as well real quick - The Grand is a horrible movie and i was very disappointed in using my free code and wednesday night watching it - However, "Chaos" is a terrific movie in which i highly suggest seeing if you like mystery suspense and or movies with a twist! Great Movie!!!

  • daniel · 1 year ago
    the codes that they are refering to were not one time use as proven by the fact that I as well as the person who posted them here used them, they simply expired quickly.
  • daniel · 1 year ago
    I have had several times where the machine would not take promo codes basically what had happened was the machine had lost its connection with redbox and during those times it doesnot accept codes and also if your like me when you get to the part with the email receipt part you have to type your email that would normally be retrieved from redboxs "homebase" simply wait and try again later, also it is not uncommon to see the redbox reboot shortly after this problem happens.
  • Rock · 1 year ago
    All 3 "Weird" codes worked for me! This was Yesteday at Giant Eagle in PA. I thought for sure they would not work- they looked like customer issued codes, that Redbox gives such as cases where a DVD was damaged or wouldnt work. Also a tip for all...If you get a message "Unable to process code...sorry for inconvience" (something along that line) give the Red box machine a few minutes, and retry it- most the time they work! If a code is truly not working, the kiosks let you know with an invalid code statement. I think sometimes the redbox networks gets busy, and sometimes slows down for a short bit...in a nut shell dont give up on the code so fast!
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    None of them worked for me. I tried in the Chicago suburbs. boo hoo!! oh, well guess i'll wait for the Monday code. There's really nothing there that I either haven't seen, or don't want to--anyhow. Sure wish they had a better choice. I keep renting bad movies just because they're free. Kinda dumb i guess.
  • beanhead82 · 1 year ago
    can you use the same code on the same credit card?
  • isaac · 1 year ago
    hey all so this morning my mom pointed out a redbox code was printed in our paper, it was DSMSPAD so check your papers ads i guess...
  • SamPleaz · 1 year ago
    No, you cannot use the same code on the same card. It will give you a message saying "promo code has already been used." You have to use another credit card so that it will actually be a different transaction.
  • Jon · 1 year ago
    The Des Moines register does have the DSMSPAD code in it today. I don't know if it is a regional code or what, so YMMV.

  • cathie faden · 1 year ago
    here's another code for everyone 33TX3M6. it worked for me. I have been finding these codes on top of the kiosk at McDonalds in vancouver, wa. They seem to work for some people and not others. I also think they expire quickly so use them as soon as you can! good luck
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    so then, is the Monday code 44KBV9 ?? if so, thanks!!
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    I was told the code DSMSPAD was in a McDonalds ad included with the Des Moines Register, so it probably will only work at McDonalds.
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    Thanks Cathie, I just used the code 33TX3M6 for a free movie at Dahl's in Des Moines, keep up the good work. everyone should give it a try.
  • isaac · 1 year ago
    when will the summer code expire? and what about the 33tx code, i would like to use them to get tuesday release movies..you think they will work at midnight?
  • isaac · 1 year ago
    just curious, cause i really wanna take advantage of the tuesday night rentals i hope the 33tx code works after midnight, along with summer code still working thanks to all.
  • Glen · 1 year ago
    Does anyone know if you can use the codes to reserve the movie online yet? I heard rumors that this may be happening soon.
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    Hello, all, the code in Sundays McDonalds ad DSMSPAD, is shown as invalid, it was supposed to be valid June 15th thru July 14th, I reported it to Redbox, and they verified it is not valid, they are going to turn it in to there Marketing Department. Hopefully that will resolve the issue.
  • Bhupen · 1 year ago
    That would be nice.
  • cathie faden · 1 year ago
    here's another code that worked for me...0W0C0N0, It may only work at McDonald's but give it a shot
  • ande · 1 year ago
    Wow!! all these codes showing up... you think that redbox is giving them out because they know that theres really nothing to watch, atleast nothing that would bring a crowd to the box to rent? or maybe it just because it's summer and the kids or off and gas is high?
    I've rented some but they all seem to be bad movies,can't even sit though it. I think they should bring back some old ones that recently went away, maybe starting from like movies that came out in jan of this year until now. What do you think?
  • luck3yone · 1 year ago
    Just tried this one and for some reason it said code already used???? Ive never used it so im guessin it was an over-all one time use
  • TJ · 1 year ago
    I HAVE A QUESTION HOW COME ITS STILL CHARGIN ON MY CREDIT CARD EVEN WHEN I CHECK OUT THE MOVIE ITS SAID 0 DOLLAR!!??!
  • daniel · 1 year ago
    that is a temporary $1 hold that redbox places whenever a movie is rented it will be removed in 1 to 2 weeks.
  • Tammy · 1 year ago
    Hi, Breakroom was a one time use & I tried it again it worked. Tried it again it said already used. yesterday i used DvDonme 2 yesterday & taday it said already. Summer worked today it wouldnt befor. DCELL-EGIZER- REDROCK couldn't process
  • NHman · 1 year ago
    I just came upon this site and i am impressed with it's research, information, and content.

    I can not figure out how REDBOX lets renters get away with using so many codes, and not wising-up to it.

    I'm wondering if its on purpose?

    If you check their TERMS OF USE page at,

    http://www.redbox.com/Help/Terms.aspx

    You will find the following line under, 'DVD RENTALS'

    . . . In the event you use a valid and unexpired promotional code provided by us when renting a DVD from our Kiosks, the specific terms of the promotion associated with such promotional code will govern your rental.

    The key phrase is, 'provided by us'.

    What happens when they begin to cross check the promotional codes THEY SENT YOU with the ones you have actually used. My interpretation is, that if you use a code that was not emailed you FROM THEM, they have the right to charge you for the rental! Can you imagine if they INTENTIONALLY waited to do this, how much money they would make!
  • Crazybob @ SETI.USA · 1 year ago
    Are those zero's or O's? Also where are you located?
  • Jimbo · 1 year ago
    Could they really do that?
  • CrAzYodaz · 1 year ago
    I highly doubt they would do that, i have rented DVD's with promo codes only to find them un-playable. The Customer Service @ RedBOX is hands down the best. They immediatly gave me a generated code so that i can re-rent the movie.

    I have rented LOTS AND LOTS (wont give exact #) of dvd's using promo codes, and have never been charged once. (other than the temporary hold)

    one code per card, and i have over 7 cards -- THANKS REDBOX!!
  • PondSide · 1 year ago
    I think NHMAN's point is well taken. After reading the terms of use, I agree that if REDBOX WANTED TO re-coup the monies, legally they could.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    This simply would never happen. I don't think that is the intent of their TOS. And, the reality is, there are no codes that work that they have not "given" at one point or another.

    The real question is, why NHMan, Jimbo and Pondside post under different names when they are all the same person. Seems like a weird thing to do, doesn't it?
  • daniel · 1 year ago
    for that to hold up in court it would have to say provided by us to you (specifically) and it would also go against the part of the promotion where it says to forward to friends, so i don't think they could.
  • luck3yone · 1 year ago
    there zeros, give it a shot, it wouldnt work for me
  • Melissa · 1 year ago
    I tried to return some dvd's today to a box that I don't normally use. Half the touch screen didn't work, luckily I was able to return my dvds but when I tried to hit the "rent a dvd" that side of the screen was not working.. we could drag the curser around the right hand side but it stopped half way. I decided to call the redbox 866 number and ask what to do and of course I was on hold for over 10 minutes before I gave up, hung up, and walked away. Then again tonight I figured I would try to call them again and still was on hold for over 10 minutes.. what is the deal with them?
  • Jen · 1 year ago
    Does anyone think that it is wrong to use the codes to get free dvd's if the codes were not sent to you directly? The rentals aren't really very much money and that is how the company pays for the new movies when they come out. The rental fee is also how they pay for the repairs on the machines. That is also how they pay their employees. If everyone gets free dvd's all of the time, they will eventually shut down the company and then everyone loses out. I would feel like I was stealing, by using other people's codes, but to each thier own. This is just my opinion and I won't be loging into this site any more.
  • daniel · 1 year ago
    no I don't see it as being a threat to redbox's survival, because if they where redbox would simply kill the promo code system, and what you have to look at is there's what maybe a few hundred people that come to this site versus the probably tens of thousands that rent from reedbox machines. Really the code users are probably compared to the market share that apple has in the home computer market, being about 7 percent, they are clearly making plenty of money, and as far as there paying employees you have to remember 1 person could service like 6-8 machines in one day for putting in the new movies so it doesn't take much to run.
  • The Turnip · 1 year ago
    Thanks, Daniel, I was waiting for someone to bring that up. For those of you who don't get the codes sent to your cell phone, the messages do indeed say "Forward to friends".
  • Rock · 1 year ago
    I dont think its wrong, because they would not create free rental codes that everyone can use, if they it was. Rebox does issue one time use free rental codes. Also the intent of free rental codes is to get customers to use redbox, and to visit the store there based in- its mostly a promotional tool. Id almost be willing to bet that the stores that the Kiosks are in are probably paid for to rent by the store itself. The fact of the matter they generate store traffic. Most people probably pick up a few items at the grocery stores there in- "while they are there". Not everyone who uses the free rental codes, return there DVDs the next day, so they probably make a few dollars that way as well. Also not everyone who uses the Redboxes, use promo codes. Id also be willing to bet that there are more paying customers, then promo code users- so it balances itself out one way or another. If Redboxes was not making any money- theyd shut down the free code rentals, faster than greased lightning.
  • Tammy · 1 year ago
    Two days in a rowi tried DCELL &i tried DVDONUs-STREEHOUSE30,They couldn't process.EGIZER5 did that the first day it seems to take 1-2 days after i get the codes for them to work. Maybe because i'm in main and they think we have nothing better to do! Why do Some of the REDBOXES offer more movie selections than others?
  • Tammy · 1 year ago
    You would be surprised at how many people dont know about the free rental codes! I have had many people ask me what i was doing when i'm at the redbox.
  • kellieD1983 · 1 year ago
    many many many people don't know about these codes. RedBox is a big corporation not some mom and pop store. And a lot of people use the codes the first time they get a movie and then keep on getting movies and pay for them. I think you have too much time on your hands. And don't ask a question if you're not planning on coming back to the site to check the answers.
  • andy · 1 year ago
    @Tammy
    I noticed that when I go to a busy Redbox, the box is well stocked in the new release (popular movie that comes out on tuesday) and less of the old movie. The less traffic Redbox has less new release and a better selection of the older movie. I could also be that customer will rent from one kiosk and return the movie at a different kiosk.
  • mooeystitches · 1 year ago
    Received an email saying there were new codes for the weekend. I do not see any new codes, am I overlooking them?
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Is there anyway you can remove "known" expired codes? It seems really simple and it is not like we are going to post MLKING again because anyone who knew MLKING was a working code also knows it is now invalid as well. It is at the point now that I do not confirm "known" working codes because I know it will be that much harder to remove it later.
  • Amberoonski · 1 year ago
    When I get my codes sent to my cell phone, the text says, "Share it with your friends!" So I am guessing if the company itself is saying to do so, then it really can't be wrong.
  • Amberoonski · 1 year ago
    When I got my last "free movie monday" code from redbox sent to my cell phone, the text actually said, "Share it with your friends"... meaning the code. Obviously they don't care about millions of people getting their movies for free if they sent me that kind of text. I think the creator of this company is a giver and not a taker! Blessings to Redbox!
  • Ryan · 1 year ago
    Redbox can get by with giving a
    "free rental" away to a percentage of their customers for a few reasons.

    1st, not everybody uses these codes. There is a active community obviously that shares the codes, however, I bet at your local red box of choice it is 1 in 10 that does so.

    2nd, red box sells the movies to the store, so they lose no money.

    3rd, most people do not keep them for 1 day only. That is the key to red box store in making its money on the movies to pay for the fees and cost that come with hosting a red box in your store. I've worked in several rental places, block buster and other local outfits. Most people can not get a movie back on time if their lives depended on it.

    In summary, share your codes with your friends, good chance they won't use them. If they do, the will keep the movie for 3 or 4 days and red box the company could care what you do as long as the store keeps buying the DVDs from their vendor and keeps calling them to service their machine.

    On the very first screen look at the bottom left it says enter promo code. Push that then enter the code after you do it will credit $1.00 to the account. Then just pick a movie like you normally would. You still have to swipe your card in case you keep it more than 1 day. Just check out like normal.
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago

    Thanks for the EGIZER5 worked again today for about the tenth time
    (once per credit card)!

    Anybody know where it came from or when it expires?

    Please add Strack's/Ultra to the list of redbox locations.
  • gatoradio · 1 year ago
    After I entered my first successful code from this website the other day (EGIZER5), I was optimistic that I might have some future success with the other codes here. However, when I returned that DVD the following day (to the same machine) and tried entering a code for my next rental - ones with high percentage too - I must have hit a bad streak, for none of the next 6 codes (all that I had written down) were valid.

    Has anyone here experienced something similar? Found that pretty much any code isn't valid when you've just returned a DVD for which you had also used a code.

    The thought of RedBox monitoring our rental history (as connected to our Credit/Debit Card Number) is an uneasy one for me. Even when we get a free rental, they still know who it was because we have to run our card through (and most of us probably use the same card each time we RedBox it). So it is possible that RebBox could "cut us off" from free rentals, or potentially limit the frequency of allowing us to successfully use the promo code system.
  • Dgo · 1 year ago
    I Don't know about getting a code for the 4th of July. I would hope we get one, But we didn't get one for Father's Day.
  • kyle · 1 year ago
    You can enter it one of two places, you can either hit on the main screen at the bottom, there is a "rent with promo code" button that you could hit. Or when you are in the check out screen, at the bottom of the screen there is another button that says "rent with promo code". I hope this helps you.
  • kyle · 1 year ago
    Yes you can use it more than once, as long as you use a diff card, becasue when you use the code it is linked to that card that you used, so if you use a diff card then it will work again.
  • Honeybunny · 1 year ago
    I tried the codes listed under untest ed in maine some say invalid others say already used. If i didnt use them who did-is it a one time use?
  • Wendy · 1 year ago

  • billredbox · 1 year ago
    In my experience, you can use another code after returning a DVD. They may be location dedicated or Monday codes, etc. I truely do not believe Redbox is monitoring the rental history with the exception of which card/which DVD so they can authorize a replacement in case of errors. I have rented quite a few movies using the codes and have had few problems. All of which were taken care of promptly. I average nearly 10 to twelve a week.
  • Keaton · 1 year ago
    I have pretty much got the free rental thing down to a science now. I have 4 cards in my name that I use to get the movies. I have my primary bank debit/credit that I use to test the codes that are added to this site. If the code(s) work then I rent 4 movies with the codes (so those who don't know... each code is good only once per credit card) I always get my 4 movies on FREE MOVIE MONDAYS! I have encountered exactly what you did with the several codes not working, but you can always count on the monday code to work. hope that helps!
  • Keaton · 1 year ago
    I experienced problems doing it that way though Kyle. For some reason the system wouldn't accept my free rental with my credit card when done that way, but if I added the movie to the cart then added the promo code it worked! WEIRD!

    False. Those are "One Time Use" codes and will only work once no matter what. Thats why there are alot of codes posted here that don't "work"!

    Yes, you can use a code once per credit card. So, if you have three credit cards you can use the code three times (once on each credit card).
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago
    Like OR said "you can use a code once per credit card" but if I understand what your asking, there is no limit to the number of different codes you can use on a single card.
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago
    when you get the message "code has already been used" means it was a one time use code.
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago
    Nope never had that problem, I have on several occasions returned a movie where I had used a promo code, and then used a new code to get another movie right away.

    It is impossible for them to "monitor" the way you suggest because how could redbox know it was you entering the new code, when you could have very well walked away after returning your movie and someone else walk up and enter a promo code.

    from my experience redbox will only limit valid codes after several people have used them in a row but if you wait a while they will start working again.
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago
    has anyone ever tried buying one of those $50 walmart visa cards, then go online and register your address to see if you can rent from redbox with one of those?

    I ask because I have several friends who don't have credit cards or atm cards that would like to rent from redbox but can't due to lack of having a card.

    I know you can't use one that was just bought but doesn't have a registered address on walmartgift.com, just wondering if it will work once it has been registered.
  • BP · 1 year ago
    Daniel-
    I do know that visa gift cards work with redbox. I didn't have a walmart card, but the prepaid card that I had did work. I think it was a simon mall visa gift card. Hope this helps!
  • Honeybunny · 1 year ago
    Will there be a code for today? Not everybody will be going out tonight.new codes would be great!Thanyou to redbox &mike for sharing. Happy fourth to everyone
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    i have a Shoppers Hotline visa card that i earned. it says debit card, but is not used as such. it is used same as a credit card, and i spent all but $9, which i use with redbox.
  • Yellow Jacket · 1 year ago
    I'd like to know too. All I'm doing tonight is working, so I was hoping there was a new code so I could get a movie tonight. If not, I might just rent one instead.
  • craigpb · 1 year ago
    The Gift2go cards that are usually at Walgreens work great. Can look them up online to find out where to find them near you.
  • a lady · 1 year ago
    honestly i dont think that i have ever actually spent a dollar on a movie
  • erickwookie · 1 year ago
    I spent a buck at redbox for the 1st time this year I think? fourthjul, america & egizer5 all didn't work today. Didn't want to walk away empty handed. Hopefully Drillbit is good...
  • Echoside1313 · 1 year ago
    so you can use more than one code on a single card? i first used BREAKROOM on my card, but ive tried a couple codes that went through but once i swiped my card it says ive already used a promo code on that card. im very confused!!
  • andymac445 · 1 year ago
    Michael,

    The way it works now is that it grabs codes from this website, so it already works with current codes.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    thought drillbit was quite funny
    FW2WGHM also does not work- 1 time use
    people are trying to be nice or pranksters
    must feed code addiction cmon new codes
    the ruins, hells yeah
    anyone got a review of it?
  • Mama11 · 1 year ago
    We've used BREAKROOM at least 4-5 times with the same credit card!
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago
    if the codes you tried were wierd letter and number combinations and it sayed that they have already been used, then those were one time use codes given to someone from redbox. But any valid code that you type in should work, except for the codes REDBOX and I think DVDONME are for first time renters only, and of course BREAKROOM since you used it already. The next time you try one and it rejects it write down what the rejection screen said for why it wouldn't take it and post it here.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    your credit card has special multiple code use powers
    retried a few different cards with that code, no luck
    WELCOMEHOME also does not work
  • Lisa · 1 year ago
    I hope there will be some new codes. I have used all of the current codes and need some new ones. I am a complete Redbox junkie.
    Thanks Lisa
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    WELCOMEBACK that is
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    I am the junkiest
  • Melissa · 1 year ago
    ha ha! I know what you mean.. I've started using my 14 year old son's debit card, my husbands debit card, and my husbands credit cards just to open new accounts and use the codes again and again. Whenever we go to friends houses they say "you wanna see this movie that just came out on DVD" and we always say "SAW IT" lol!
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    so true and its hard to pick a movie because the monday code MUST get used
  • Yellow Jacket · 1 year ago
    Yeah, I'm disappointed that one didn't work. I'll just have to wait until tomorrow to use the Monday code.
  • a lady · 1 year ago
    I agree. My friends get frustrated whenever they want to rent a movie cux i always that i saw this one, and this one, and this one. I think if we dont get some new codes im going to start having Redbox withdrawals!!!
  • snazzyd · 1 year ago
    i tried using SUMMER code yesterday and it said it was expired.. anyone else have this prob??
  • Alan Smithee · 1 year ago
    Still trying to figure out when codes expire- for most of them, the Monday following the day they get put out is the last day they work, but the EGIZER5 code quit working today (Sunday) but was working Wednesday. Others like MILLER have lasted at least 2 weeks. I've almost seen everything out that I want to see anyways, it's been great getting free rentals so I can save my money for a new TV hopefully by the end of the year! Course then I'll have a Blu-Ray player too and won't be satisfied with Redbox's standard DVDs.
  • moose · 1 year ago
    Used "BREAKROOM" on 7/5/2008 and it worked great. Totally free. Austin, TX. Thanks.
  • Honeybunny · 1 year ago
    I'm beggining to think that redbox didn't care about that people like us are getting all of the codes that we have, maybe that was the plan get us addicted-use anyones cards that are willing to enable us.Befor you know it you will be willing to pay to rent a movie because it has become a daily habbit!Ask yourself how many movies are you watching a week?How often are you checking the web-sight for a code you can use?Who are you asking if you can use their cards?Ok i'll admit I'M A CODE JUNKIE! NEEEEEEED A new code!
  • Barbara · 1 year ago
    Has anyone gotten the Monday code for today?
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    i notice the code FW72JG in the list at top. is that todays code?
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    if it's not the Monday code, has anyone received it yet? thank you
  • Honeybunny · 1 year ago
    FW72JG is showing up in the "untested" for maine .I normaly get an email nothing yet.
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    yes, i get an email also, but not til noon or so Central Time. i notice the people that have cellphones, and i dont, get texted earlier in the day. so i was hoping there was someone out there who received the code by text and was willing to post it. i hate sitting around waiting til noon or later. its getting hotter by the moment. 79 now, but going up to 90. thanks
  • billredbox · 1 year ago
    FW72JG is the Monday Code.
  • smilinjuju · 1 year ago
    Yes it is!

    JUANVARGUS


    Not sure if this works or not, but I found it listed on another red box site. I will try it later when I get off work.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    and that site would be
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    ah yes not that hard to find
    hopefully it works
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    I just tried it in Iowa, not a valid code message. :(
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    The code is JUANVARGAS, with an a not a u, will have to try it again.
  • Adam · 1 year ago
    I have used the redbox for about a year now, and I have received the emails that notify new releases. The problem is I can't find where on this email is the free rental for mondays. Could someone tell me where i could find it in my email or what i need to do to receive it.
  • Dgo · 1 year ago
    Where has all the codes gone??? I got spoiled.
    I missed the holiday codes, I was hoping for one for the 4th of July, but haven't seen anything guess I have to wait until next Monday to buy one get one free. Hopefully Monday codes don't go away too.
  • GohsGirl · 1 year ago
    I tried the code using an "a" and an "u" and it did not work for either.
  • Pep · 1 year ago
    I just tried the following code, in Richardson TX and it does not work....

    FW72JG

    Please post a code for the 4th if anyone has it.
  • Alicia · 1 year ago
    I signed up for the Redbox codes through email .... Which was like 3 weeks ago. I got one called "Breakroom." and haven't received one yet. Supposedly the codes were suppose to be sent every week - to almost every week. It's been 3, maybe more and I haven't got any

    Does anyone else get codes through email, if yes how often do they send them to you.

    Also is the text worth it? I was thinking about it, but I only have 100 texts on my phone per month. I don't want them to be wasted on rebox ... how do people get Monday codes as well? Please and thanks.
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    You have to sign up at this website, insideredbox.com to get the monday code emailed to you at no charge. in the pink box upper right.
  • Lorrie · 1 year ago
    I signed up for emails months ago and have never received one since the initial "Breakroom". I'm also wondering how other people get the emails since I don't have any texting.
  • Lorrie · 1 year ago
    Thanks Myron for the info.
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago
    FW72JG would not have worked today as it was the "MONDAY ONLY" code and being so expired at midnight last night.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Why did you add "Movie rented" to the options? I see it is optional, but what diffeance does the movie make to a site dedicated to providing updated information on working and non-working promo codes? just curious.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    What does the "green" upwards pointing arrow represent? I originally thought it would mean the trend of codes wether working or non-working, but the "green" or as some would assume (working) arrow is on both working and non-working codes so is thus usless here. Am I missing something? :-(
  • Patty · 1 year ago
    Yes, I've used BREAKROOM the 1st of June, then again a week ago, it still works.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    I added the "Movie Rented" feature about a week ago. It is part of a test I am doing. More details will be available soon.
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    Currently, by clicking on the green arrow it will copy the code into the reporting box above, thus eliminating the need to type in the code manually and reducing typos.

    I realize this is not intuitive from a user interface standpoint, and am working on better ways to indicate this ability. Also, after seeing the arrow there, I also thought of the idea using it for code trending, and will likely do so in the future.

    What I am trying to do is cram a lot of useful features into a limited space, which is not an easy task. Any suggestions will be welcomed.
  • blonde mama · 1 year ago
    Has anyone received Wednesday promo code yet? If so, would you please share:)

    Thanks!!!
  • Yellow Jacket · 1 year ago
    If I'm correct, they got rid of the Wednesday codes in May.

  • DVDFRENZY · 1 year ago
    whatsup with the lack of codes lately?? anybody got a clue? I AM GETTING DESPERATE
  • Trevor · 1 year ago
    Would it really hurt you to spend a buck once in a while? :)
  • DVDFRENZY · 1 year ago
    Would it really hurt you to say something useful? :) I'm sure i give redbox more business than you!
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    would it hurt you to be banned from this site and not make comments about spending a dollar
    anyone who makes that stupid comment
    free movies is what this site is about
    free movies is what we are about
    you no like you can git the f out of america
    thanks to mike and redbox even if codes are done
    i appreciate the love for the last year
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago
    man I'm with you theres 2 or 3 movies I want to see but I'm not willing to pay if I know there are more codes on the way even if its only monday codes, hopefully my prepaid cards will be here soon and I can get to reuse the old codes that still work like, redbox, dvdonme, and breakroom.
  • Alicia · 1 year ago
    That's the same with me as well. I've only received the breakroom ... nothing more, so I'm also wondering on people are getting the Monday & Wednesday codes.
  • Alicia · 1 year ago
    That where I signed up at. I haven't gotten any emails :(
  • ben · 1 year ago
    hey guys,

    is there any way we can get the guys at redbox to, if there's an option, get the "unrated" or "extended" versions of some of the movies they put in the redbox?

    I know i personally like to see the unrated versions of movies that offer that option on dvd. for some odd reason, redbox only gets the standard theater versions, i.e. "drillbit taylor". movie stores have the "unrated extended survival edition". who do we talk to? whats up with this?

    others include: good luck chuck, meet the spartans, semi-pro...
  • redboxfan · 1 year ago
    guys we all got spoiled with all these free movies. I am sure we can consider paying for the service once in a while. I love free stuff myself, but I am sure the service Redbox provide for us cost money and even to setup and run this website (i know there are sponsores involved) isnt free, so lets be considerate and thankfull for what we've got.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    very well put
    a lot nicer than its only a dollar blah blah blah
    although i do remember seeing a news clip floating around the web along the lines of free movies for life!?!
    they interviewed a rep from redbox and he more or less said umm yeah its not exactly going to last forever
    i guess it is what it is
    & i guess i have the highest free redbox movie total in the world!!!!
  • fiser · 1 year ago
    where did you people rent your movies before red box came out here in the central valley Calif. we have redbox,movie cube and dvdplay rental machines all within a 5 mile radius where i live. if you don't spend a dollar once in a while at the redbox more than likely you wont spend a buck in their stores as they put these machines to get extra foot traffic and if they don't make money off those machines they will be gone as retail space cost money.
  • DVDFRENZY · 1 year ago
    uh, it sounds like you think redbox runs this site. insideredbox.com is in no way offiliated with the company Redbox.
  • fiser · 1 year ago
    DVDFRENZY where do you think Mike gets these codes from, McDonalds puts a redbox at their restaurants that when you go to rent you have your children with you and as soon as they smell fries and hamburgers they want to eat i am sure McDonalds knows that they are not going to make money off the redbox machines and judging from your replys post you must look like a pitbull !
  • jimjames · 1 year ago
    i've already had too many experiences of codes not working,or working only in select areas,well outside of urban or heavily traveled centers.What are the costs involved? Is this a temp thing for some statistical research? Any thoughts?
  • andy · 1 year ago
    I found a new way to get the new release from netflix without the long wait. When you see the new release trailer showing in the theater, go to netflix and put in on hold in your que. You'll be the first one to get it mailed to you when it comes out in the future.
  • ben · 1 year ago

    ANY CODES THAT WORK IN TEXAS?

    I got DVDONME and BREAKROOM to work at our Walmart. but thats it so far.
  • Honeybunny · 1 year ago
    Looking for working codes for maine,any help?
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    I agree. If they carry "R" rated then unrated should not be a problem. I would like to see what was missing from original movie as well.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Not true. If you have 3 movies out,for example, on the day the "new release" issues you will not be the "1st" to get it. It will ship to 1st customer that has movies coming their way next.
  • ANDY · 1 year ago
    You are right. You have to return your DVd to get the new release.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Return and time it perfect. I think it is all luck really. I actually am a big fan of blockbuster.com. They allow in-store exchanges of up to 5 a month so if you subscribe to 3 at a time, technically you can have 6 out at once (the 3 you still show as not being returned yet and the 3 new or older titles you just got from the store). Also, since Blockbuster did away with late fees you can keep a movie or game almost 6 weeks. Here's how it works, 5 days with paid rental, then 7 day grace period to return it. If after the 12th day you still have movie/game they then charge you for it, but you now have 30 days to return it and only pay a $1.50 service fee and then they refund the price charged. I am not a spokesman or employee of blockbuster! LOL I just think it is a great deal. Not as good as Redbox, but still pretty darn good!

  • ILoveFreeMovies · 1 year ago
    REDBOX has to be used b4 BREAKROOM and DVDONME
  • Alan Smithee · 1 year ago
    I'm personally sick of all the 'unrated' releases- most of them just have stuff added back in that slows down the movie and was cut for good reason. Separate discs are completely unnecessary anyways, as one of the biggest hyped features of DVD when it first came out was to be able to have multiple versions of a movie on the SAME disc. Oddly only a few titles have done this, many others have had separate discs. (Don't even get me started on all the "Foolscreen Edition" discs out there- 16x9 discs can also be flagged so the player will crop the picture if set to "4x3 Pan & Scan" for the black-bar-haters but an extremely small number of discs can do this.)

    If I'm forced to pick one or the other I always go for the theatrical version. I'm glad Redbox usually carries the correct version.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    I do agree that alot of the times the stuff that is cut is done so to avoid slowing the movie down or simply because it just wasn't good enough. However there are other times when material is cut because it makes the movie too long by Hollywood standards. Also, if the "gore" gets too intense it will trigger a rating that is above R and thus unmarketable in most cases. I would simply like the option to decide for myself. They they take the time and effort to make an unrated version as well as a rated version for dvd then there may be something there. Then again, there may not! LOL
  • msh3773 · 1 year ago
    Yes. Sorry. I meant to clarify.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    wow love the new format
    anyone want to make it even better with new codes??
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Did anyone see "Bone Eater"? It definatly looks tacky and cheap, but is it watchable? Any horror fans got comments for me. Also, "Grizzly Park" info? "The Ruins" was very good. "Alive or Dead"? was iffy at best. Worth watching with free code and if there are no other options.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Mike,
    Why are "expired codes" still being listed? Would the chart simply look too small if there were only "working" codes listed?
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    Its a bit more complicated than it seems. Yes, I could easily remove the expired codes, but they serve as a reference for many to see what the past codes have been.

    Also, I have found it difficult to decide what an "expired" code actually is. Monday codes definitely fit the category, but other more "regular" codes sometimes start working again after awhile, so I don't want to list them as expired and prevent them from showing.

    I am working on taking the expired codes off of the list, and then allowing you to click to another page to see a more comprehensive list that shows expired and other removed codes. This is probably a more ideal way to handle it than the current setup.

    Stay tuned! (and, I am always open to your ideas and suggestions...)
  • Alan Smithee · 1 year ago
    It's sort of helpful to know which codes have expired so you don't bother trying to use them again. Unless people aren't being accurate with the listings though, it looks like some of them expire earlier in some places than others.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    horror fan what what
    i was considering getting bone eater myself
    read some user reviews which said it was originally a sci fi channel movie and it was not good
    i dont think its worth a free monday rent, but check em out for yourself i find imdb.com is real helpful

    Grizzly park is not worth the time and effort let alone a code or a buck. The ending was very disapointing hope they don't make a part 2
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Movies are pre-loaded and can be taken out at midnight on tuesday morning. (Most of the time) I did get jammed up one time and it did not release, but several other times I tried they were available at 12:01 AM
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Thanks. I pass on these 2 then even with today's free code.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Thanks. I appreciate the advice.
  • Mark · 1 year ago
    Used to be a blockbuster.com advocate, but their cost is twice as much when you have the unlimited in store returns, which is basically a wash if you compare per movie cost. But, the worst thing about Blockbuster compared to Netflix is that with Blockbuster you're lucky if you get sent something near the top of your queue. Netflix does a much better job of identifying availabiltiy and working to get your preferred items to you, and the turn around of about a day each way is also quicker than Blockbuster. For the 3 @ a time, $18 or so a month, Netflix is the better provider.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    As far as cheesy horror movies go I thought Grizzly Park was decent, and the ending? The ending was the best part!
    I thought it would suck and it was pretty good, I thought the ruins would be good it and thought it sucked
    Go figure
    Since this will be prob be on the next page in a little bit I guess this reply is kinda worthless, but I like to add my 2 cents as far as horror movies go
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    If anyone cares I thought Stop Loss was a very well made movie if you can deal with the war realism which I know some can't

    Here's to all the troops coming home safely!!
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    I agree with Groov.... I was afraid it was going to be anti-war propaganda but it was not. It was well written and does bring up an important issue in "Stop-Loss" policies. Wether you are for or against the war this movie does not judge the war. It is worth seeing.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Still no new working codes. This is a long dry spell. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but just in case I have ordered 7 pre-paid AM Ex cards. Got them at face value and cheap shipping thru my AM-EX account. Hope they work on dvdonme and the other classics.
  • Yellow Jacket · 1 year ago
    I just watched the movie last night and was surprised to see it wasn't bad. Like Vegas, I thought it was going to be anti-war propaganda, but, thankfully, it was not. Definitely worth a rental.
  • AnithA · 1 year ago
    red box does not accept prepaid cards I tried with AMEX cards and it never worked
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago

  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Blockbuster is collecting new or used dvds for the troops! There is a drop box in the store and they will ship them to The tropps over-seas. I am donating a lot of my dvds that I know I will never watch again and suggest anyone who can please do the same. Just imagine at night in the barracks after being on patrol or being shot at our soldiers watching a movie that YOU sent them! How cool is that!

    I RENTED THE NEW RELEASE LAST NIGHT AT 12:02A.M.
    HOWEVER, THERE WAS A WALMART EMPLOYEE IN FROMT OF ME AND HE RENTED A COPY OF EVERY NEW RELEASE FOR MAX OF 6 PER CARD AND HE USED THE MONDAY CODE. YES, AFTER MIDNIGHT. HE SAID HE HAS BEEN USING THE CODE EVERY TUES AT SAME TIME TO GET THE NEW RELEASES. THE WALMARTS IN ROSWELL AND ALPHARETTA GA ARE THE ONLY PLACE THAT HAVE THE REDBOX MOVIES AND YOU MUST GET THERE BEFORE THE EMPLOYEES. ALTHOUGH, IF I WORKED THERE I WOULD DO THE SAME.
  • Daniel · 1 year ago
    the cards you ordered might work, assuming your name is printed on the card and your address is registered with them.

    I know for a fact that the walmart prepaid visa MONEYCARD that gets your name on it will work but the walmart prepaid visa GIFTCARD will not even when registered.

    So it varies, I say if you already ordered them give it a shot and see.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    They spped so when I get them I will try them out. If they work I will post the code I used for the waiver on the fee to purchase. The flat shipping is $5.99 up to 7 cards so just 1 code each would pay for them.

    Hey Andy i tied that and 90% of the time the day of the release it say short wait. Question why is tuesday the designated release day of release date for all movies who oversees this date? I personally know blockbuster employees that get movies approx. oneweek prior to release date.
  • Barbara · 1 year ago
    It was hard to find codes last summer!!! There were codes that were posted for Tx, but alot of them wouldn't work in Houston. I think codes dry up in the summer b/c school is out and people rent more. At least there still a free code for Mon.

    In Houston, DVD play has basically the same selection as Redbox. There number of copies of movies is usually only one per movie, so if you don't get there really early the movie maybe gone.
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    Just used the following code and it is working,
    THX0708
    use it while you can, the dry spell is over.
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    Try THX0708
  • Matt · 1 year ago
    its dumb because you have to use a different card even if you use a different code. I used a code yesterday, they didn't charge me, I used a different code today, and they charged me. thats such a hassle getting a different card every time u wanna rent $1 movie in my opinion.

    anyone else have the same trouble?
  • Daniel · 1 year ago
    no, I have only one card and I have used at least 70 different codes over the last 8 months on that one card. inorder for a code to work it must still be valid and you must not have already used it on that card, and if you enter a code you still get a $1 "hold" placed on your account and assuming you return it on time that hold is removed in 1-2 weeks. It is standard procedure for a business like this to place the $1 hold to verify the card is active and has sufficient funds for the first days rental. It is also stated in the terms of service which can be found on the REDBOX liosk touchscreen interface or there website.
  • Matt · 1 year ago
    ohhh! ok! I got ya! I did use a different code and it worked, showed that it would be $0 (returned in 1 day), but I see what you mean about the hold. Thanks so much for clearing that up!
  • ben · 1 year ago
    anybody else find it "highly" weird why "every" time u CALL 866-redbox3, regardless of the time of day, they have you on hold for at LEAST 15 minutes listening to that idiot repeating himself about "toppling some empire"???
  • Catie · 1 year ago
    hey I was wondering if it would work if you used a discover giftcard on the redbox? Or does it have to be a real credit card?
  • rich · 1 year ago
    Yes, it need to be a "real" credit card or a debt card...I tried other cards to no avail. I guess it would be like stealing if this wasn't in place, cause they would not know who the person was on a gift card.
  • Catie · 1 year ago
    Oh, okay. Thankyou!
  • Dan · 1 year ago
    I've used the MasterCard from Obopay.com and one I got my H&R Block tax refund on. I consider those gift cards and they had less than $5 on them when I rented movies.

    People... when your only paying a dollar for something you can't expect much customer service!

    How often do you call??????
  • Daniel · 1 year ago
    well this question has been answered several times on this sit but here again, Some work and some don't for example if its a prepaid from your bank that has your name and address registered to the card it will, also the Walmart prepaid VISA MONEYCARD that is registered to you and your name appears on the card works but the walmart VISA GIFTCARD will not work even when registered, it appears the defining characteristic is that your name has to be on the card so that if you go over your balance they not only have your address but also the name of the person that rented the movie.
  • bob · 1 year ago
    I just want to say thanks for the technical support you guys offer over the phone, however your redbox here in delta is always acting up and saying its off line, do you know when you can get this fixed? also the two codes you gave me didn't work right. thanks again redboxers all over
  • craigpb · 1 year ago
    The gift2go cards at Walgreens worked fine for me. If you can register the card online and tie it to your zip code, most likely it will work, but not all do.

    Just tried SUMMER1 at Cub Foods in MN. Did NOT work. Must be location specific. Anyone else hate it when this happens?
  • CrAzYodaz · 1 year ago
    K -- I GOT A STUPID QUESTION -- first i would like to thank this site for many codes used -- THANKS :)

    my question is why some codes are reported not working when the code actually looks like a "WILD CODE" good at all redbox's?

    for instance "THX0708" seems to be working everywhere accross the country -- but "SUMMER1" seems to location specific?

    now i have entered codes before and the kiosk says something like " can not authorize code at this time, please try later" -- then i try it again in about 1-2mins and it works

    it just seems that "THX0708" seems to be a "GLOBAL" code.?

    it should not have any "not working" @ wal-mart

    but hey, if I gave you a penny for your thoughts.. then you gave me your two cents............
    .................................. does that mean i get to keep the extra penny?

    gave you a penny, you gave me two........ nevermind

    i will slow down :p

  • ben · 1 year ago
    somebody may have more than 1 watch on...anyway, just a guess-timation, the code "thx0708" COULD break down to mean thx(thanks)-07(july-the current month)-08(the current year)...
    but what do i know
  • snake · 1 year ago
    I see that sometimes the RedBox machines have an empty case available for $1.00. I presume it is to allow one to return a DVD if you have lost the case. It ends up costing $1.00 additional but at least it stops the rental charges since a DVD can't be returned without a case (as far as I know). I'm wondering, could I use a free (Monday) code to get a case for free and keep it or would I be charged $1.00 per day?
  • garpike · 1 year ago
    Interesting question......I would assume you could get it with the monday code and keep it until you need it because you really can't "return" an empty case, it has no barcode.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    yes codes are good because you can get a free movie with it if you enter the code and swipe your card you get a free movie at no cost for free that is cool good because one dollar seven is too expensive money cost
  • BOB · 1 year ago
    IF IT HAS NO BARCODE. THEN HOW WILL THE MACHINE GIVE YOU AN EMPTY CASE?
  • Daniel · 1 year ago
    actually the older cases do have a small barcode in the middle of the back side of the case, not sure about the new case, As for the original question why would you want to waste a promo code on a case you may never need? It is there for people that NEED them as a last resort because they were dumb enough to misplace the case, I mean come on, open case insert dvd into player set case ontop of dvd player watch movie, return to case and return to kiosk. how could you misplace a case unless your like here you go kids (tosses case to young children) have fun, and if you do that then you should pay the dollar for a replacement case.
  • snake · 1 year ago
    I called Redbox and was told I could keep the case. The $1.00 charge buys the case. I got a case yesterday with a FREE Monday ONLY Code. The case has a barcode on a piece of paper inside. That is how it finds the case inside machine. It is treated like a DVD based upon the bar code. Directions say to remove the paper "code" and put the CD inside. I have several credit cards. I can use the Monday ONLY code on each card. I can not possibly watch more than two movies a day because I work full time. The empty case can be used at home to store CD/DVD. The cases is very durable

  • dave johncock · 1 year ago
    now redbox is rereleasing movies as new releases that we have rented off of them 3-6 months ago. another trick they like to do is to change the pictures in the machines to get us to goof and rent a movie for a second time. anybody else notice? the new release 21 is one of them.
  • ILoveFreeMovies · 1 year ago
    21 is a new DVD release everywhere, not just Redbox. I don't recall it being released 3-6 months ago. It was originally released on March 28, 2008 at the box office.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    yeah you silly goose 21 is brand new, but they have done it with 27 dresses, one missed call, and others
    i have noticed there are 2 new codes listed today which i am positive that the people who posted them dont realize they are one time use from redbox customer service
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    I tried both, P2GLBKX came up as an already used code, BR66S11 was shown as an invalid code, have not tried the FUJI26 yet, I talked to Redbox and they told me that SUMMER1 was a valid working code, but would not tell me where.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    yeah summer1 does not work
    fuji26 does

  • Myron · 1 year ago
    Some select customers get a code with there new releases instead of the normal dvdonme at the bottom, I use to get them, but now mine all have dvdonme at the bottom too, not sure who qualifies for the extra code,

    I sometimes get them after having given my e-mail to receive a receipt.

    I only get monday codes by email and I never get a receipt! Sometimes i wish I could ues the monday code on a different day, I use the code to get a movie and I end up keeping it another day because I don,t have time to watch the movie.What a waste.I do rent movies during the week.
  • Jonathan Harbour · 1 year ago
    So I think the battle for DVD machines is over. Redbox has won. They are now in Walmart! It's over, tell DVDplay and whoever else to pack it in. I mean really, Walmart, Walgreens, and McDonalds. Done it's all over.
  • Daniel · 1 year ago
    the email codes for the week from redbox are only for new email entered into there system and at this point are sporatic at best but they used to be every tuesday for the first month.

    Summer1 i am going to have to say is location specific to Giant grocery stores, I received this code in a coupon book from Giant and have used it a 6 times with out any problem at all. Hope this helps those trying to use it.
  • groovymovie · 1 year ago
    well supposedly mcdonalds owns redbox so they could put kiosks in iraq if they wanted to
    ive actually seen alot more dvdexpresses lately and not one dvdplay which has alot of different movies(lost boys 2!!!)than redbox with a code site as well so i hope they both live long and prosper
    if its free its for me

    Come on, what's a buck???? I hope that using free codes from a site like this does not make redbox stop giving them out. I think if you use a free one, or two, that you should at least buy one for a buck. How about three for a dollar???? Fair enough??? How do you know that redbox won't go back and recharge your card for months worth of free dvd's? It could happen! LOL

  • Redboxfan63 · 1 year ago
    Did you read the bottom, this website isn't affiliated with redbox, i wish people would read that before posting stuff. Whats up with redbox website, none of the new movies showed up on there today and after midnight only a couple of movies were to get and the rest just vanished. I met a redbox stocker and he told me there cracking down on the codes because of losing money so looks like its back to paying 1.00 which isn't bad.
  • D. · 1 year ago
    i'm surprised it's lasted this long... why do they tell people to tell their friends about the codes if they didn't think they'd lose money? i guess now that they have customers they figure they don't need that consumer-based promo anymore... once they start losing even more money the codes will be back (i know i've rented with a code before and ended up paying since i kept it 3 days)
  • LD · 1 year ago
    FYI, I USED MONDAY CODE ON TUESDAY AT 12:00 TO 12:15. I GET NEW RELEASE WITH CODE FOR FREE AND I PURCHASE OTHER NEW RELEASES.
    HOWEVER, IN GEORGIA THE REDBOX IS AT WALMART AND YOU HAVE TO GET TO THE ONE MACHINE BEFORE THE EMPLOYEES.

  • garpike · 1 year ago
    I just noticed this morning that Speedway gas stations have a deal with red box going on right now.

    If you buy 3 reg candy bars for $2.00 you get a free rental code for red box.

    I am sure it is a one time only code but hey you get 3 candy bars and a movie for 2 bucks!

    Have a great day!
  • Ray · 1 year ago
    Does anyone know if this deal includes Super America stores in MN/WI?
  • Linda · 1 year ago
    I too have noticed that there seem to not be any movies in my box worth seeing lately AND that the machines are not taking codes. We use two wal-mart machines 20 miles apart. I noticed the banner for Nim's island like 2 weeks ago as coming attractions. However, now that it is out, its not in the machine, nor is it on their website! And my old standby backup to rent if I cant find anything else I want to rent, the Brave One, has not been in my machine in a month. Still shows up on list, but isnt there when I chose it. I have had several times that I went to get a movie and my top 10 picks even werent in the machine! And I have tried almost every code out there, with both old and new credit cards, and cannot get codes to work with our 2 machines. Even DVDONME did not work, with a brand new credit card I just got. It said code already used. The monday and other codes either say used already or code cannot be processed at this time.

    Wondering, do you know if each attendant has a way to turn off the codes for machines. Or maybe a regional thing. Because none of the codes work for us around here any more. My guess would be the attendant for these 2 machines is the same.

    Granted $1 is not a lot for a movie rental. But as many as we rent in a week, and as we cant always return them in 24 hours, it does add up quickly.
  • lyn · 1 year ago
    i believe the attendants have ability about acccepting codes.We have a Smith's groc store that will not accept any codes~~~~but the Albertson's by our house ALWAYS takes the codes. Needless to say can you guess which is my new grocs, store? yes, Albertson!
  • Maven · 1 year ago
    Today at the second walmart it did show Nims Island again but with a coming soon banner, at least. Still, it didnt take code that seems to be working everywhere (FUJI one). Never even takes the Monday codes on Mondays. Sucks. Back to 3 movies at a time at Blockbuster I guess.
  • D. · 1 year ago
    ok so i've noticed that like half of the time the dvds are "real" in that they have the original printing on them. the other half the dvds are just plain silver, no text or picture. whats up with that?
  • Mike · 1 year ago
    Most silver DVD's have one side wide screen and the other side full screen. I like when red box does that!
  • Alan Smithee · 1 year ago
    I've been renting movies on Saturdays whenever I go by a machine, since I work Sunday nights now and can return them on time. FUJI26 worked on Saturday but it had expired on Sunday. I think that one lasted longer than a week too, usually the codes last one week and the last day they work is on a Monday.
  • Redboxfan63 · 1 year ago
    For some reason it seems redbox is having some problems, i went on vacation and tried many redboxes and codes worked and some didn't. I believe it has alot to do with them being online, but a guy who stocked the redboxes in northern maryland told me they can block codes and such. He said its all up to the retailer and the guy stocking them. Sad that they have to cheat us out of free rentals and such. But everyone needs to make money somehow.


    The monday code is 172GJZ by the way.
  • Redboxfan63 · 1 year ago
    codes are sensative by area and time zones and such. I have friends in LA and friends all over and they try codes at different times like i do and we seem to have the whole system down pat. Amazing how simple this whole thing really is.

  • ohio · 1 year ago
    I've used the same code more than once (fuji26, breakroom, and dvdonme), however, you have to use a different credit card to swipe with each time, and bypass the email address. The system will zero it out, but if you use the same card it then says unable to process. Did it over with a different c.card & skipped email, worked like a charm. Just used them again last night at Giant Eagle in Ohio.
  • ohio · 1 year ago
    FORGOT-

    Will also say already used if you used that with the same credit card prior. Go back through and redo it using a different credit card at checkout, and skip the email address.

    You should call redbox at 1866redbox3, and let them know the code does not work and which location, they can sometimes correct it online, or give you a one time use code that will work, everytime I call them I get another free code good for 45 days.

  • Redboxfan63 · 1 year ago
    so last night i went and did my usual monday night into tuesday test and found the monday only code works well into tuesday morning however some locations don't let the new movies go to well into the next morning, after stopping at 7 red boxes and checking things out the 6th one at 1:30am wouldn't let the new movies go but all the others let them go around midnight or a lil later from my weekly checks. and everytime i call redbox they tell me a new promo code too, i even applied as a part time stocker to get the more inside scoop on the whole process. what an amazing machine they have. Anyone find any new codes for this week because none seem to be working right accept the usual ones.
  • Myron · 1 year ago
    It appears from the usage of the code LOU808, that it may work only at the Louisville Kentucky area McDonalds, but the code MCSUMR808 seems to work at all McDonalds so far. One out of two is not bad.

    FYI if anyone is using Jewel/Osco in 60526 area, the Wednesday code is not working. i walked there and back (no car) and don't feel like walking over 2 miles again, so no movies for me. \

    i got the words "unable to process at this time. try again later. sorry for the inconvenience."

    so when i got home, i called 1-866-733-2693, and they said they had not received the Wednesday code yet and so the kiosk isnt programmed with it and they'll take care of it.

    but i don't feel like walking another couple miles. they gave me a one time code good for 45 days, but it's only good on one of my credit cards. oh, well, better than nothing.

    Ellen Page is a brillant young actress. She will be the next big star. Juno was her introduction to mainstream and now people know the name. Although not all her movies are great I too like Smart People (also starring Sarah Jessica Parker and Dennis Quaid) and Juno, but after watching "The Tracey Fragments" I would not recommend that one.

    "Recent Posts" and "Add/Update Codes" always overlap making it hard to see and use both features.
  • TheREDboxeR · 1 year ago
    true, trailer does not make it look appealing
    juno was real good, hope it makes it way to cable so i can watch it every other day
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago
    what is the resolution on your computers moniter, if it is set to low it can cause things to overlap? also do you have the text display setting in internet explorer set high, because that can cause things to overlap? this site always displays perfectly for me, perhaps you should clear your history so this page has to completely reload.
  • jt7481 · 1 year ago
    Lowes Foods needs to be added to the 'Location" list.

    Who actually generates these codes anyway? And, yes, for three Mondays in a row, my codes didn't work.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    redbox.com generates the codes for redbox.com's rentals.And,no, I have never had a problem with Monday's codes working for me.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Thanks for suggestions. Resolution is high. 22" monitor. Text is medium. I use "Window Washer" several times a day. Oh well, thanks for the ideas though. :-)
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    Wish there were Jewel/Osco specific codes. there are codes for everywhere but there. except the monday and wednesday ones of course
  • Roberta · 1 year ago

    I've gotten some excellent movie recommendations from this site and would like some more. Good ones I've recently seen: Kite Runner, Bank Job, August Rush, Juno, etc. I want to see the Cleaner but would like some feedback first.

    Keep 'em coming!
    Thnx!
  • Melony34 · 1 year ago
    I really enjoyed the Cleaner, it has a great story line with lots of twists and unexpected turns. It was one of those movies that keeps you on the edge of your seat. And of course Samuel L. Jackson as the lead character couldn't of been a better choice.
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    I rented "Trade"" and Live Free or Die Hard" today, and enjoyed them both. i usually like very few because i dont like scary, gross, bloody or dumb--which eliminates most. i did like the ones you mentioned tho. couldnt find the Cleaner at redbox presently, and dont remember if i saw it.
  • Chip · 1 year ago
    This is the fourth Monday in a row that the Monday code didn't work for me! I do have a theory, though. I go shopping AFTER 9:00 PM (local) Pacific time, which is AFTER 12:00 midnight Eastern time. Redbox claims that the code is good until midnight, but maybe they are referring to Midnight EASTERN TIME. Next Monday, I'll try to go shopping BEFORE 9 PM local time. I will comment then...

    Mine doesnt work after 9pm EST
  • Alan Smithee · 1 year ago
    I'm in CA and have rented a few times with the Monday code around 9:30 PM.
  • Chip · 1 year ago
    Alan Smithee, thank you for replying. I'm glad the code still works for you after 9:30 PM.
  • Chip · 1 year ago
    John, I knew I wasn't the only one with the time zone problem! Someone should tell Redbox that not all of us live in the Eastern Time Zone.
  • Jose P · 1 year ago
    Just curious...why do they make store specific codes? It's upsetting because redbox in this area is only on walmart or farm fresh...but I see all this codes for McDonald's Walgrens, Giants, etc....why are they store specific? any thoughts?
  • Jose P · 1 year ago
    Before anyone comments..I know we just had one for Walmart, that's not the point. The point is...why store specific?
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Sometimes the simplest answer is the correct answer. I think that holds true here too. Codes are store specific to get you to actually go to that specific store.
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    just wondering if anyone would know. i have a debit card from my bank, but it doesnt work if i slide it in a redbox kiosk. i've never used it before, but i do have a password# for it. there is no place in the kiosk to put a #, so i'm guessing thats why it won't work. don't all debit cards have passwords, yet directions say you can use a credit or debit card.
  • steph · 1 year ago
    i use my debit card at the kiosks and it just runs like a credit card...basically it does not ask me for my pin #. If the card isnt working, I would contact the bank.
  • kpjjou · 1 year ago
    It has to be a debit credit card.
  • Mike · 1 year ago
    Activate your card. My debit and credit card work fine. You do not need to put in your pin#
  • Mike · 1 year ago
    Codes are out there that are store specific because Wal Mart, McDonalds use these Red Box kiosks as a marketing ploy to get you to "one stop shop"
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    If you can "One Stop Shop" at McDonalds I am very impressed. If not, read my post right before yours. P.S. Not this post, the one I posted 5 hours before you. :-)
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Hi all. Just finished watching "An American Crime". Very sad. Very disturbing.Child abuse is never a good basis for a movie and the fact that it is all taken from actual court transcripts makes this true story even sadder. Not for the faint of heart. I actually wish I hadn't seen it. I would suggest passing on this one.
  • Jose P · 1 year ago
    That's nice...except there's NO McDonalds, Walgreens, etc...stores in here with redboxes. Basically it;s useless.
  • Frank · 1 year ago
    Wednesday code is JK4HM5, just wanted to share the good word!
  • bigshew · 1 year ago
    If you haven't used your card for many months the bank may deactivate it. I've had it happen to me.
  • Roberta · 1 year ago
    thanks have a nice day!!!
  • BOB · 1 year ago
    JUST WAIT UNTIL MONDAY. OR PAY ONE DOLLAR.
  • Dianne · 1 year ago
    My husband and I liked The Cleaner. It has a combination of humor and action. Good movie!
  • jean · 1 year ago
    How do i use the code ?
  • Alicia · 1 year ago
    When you're at the redbox machine, down in the left had corner there is a button that says "promo code" or something of that sort. Click it. Type in the promo code. If the code works it will load to the screen where the dvd selection is. Pick a movie. It will says the cost is 0.00 dollars. Click checkout and use your credit card and you're set.
  • John · 1 year ago
    well late night movie and happy meal to go?
    sometimes, I grab a movie and dollar menu items to go. I think of it as buy 3 dollar menu items and get a free movie.
  • Artie · 1 year ago
    What's going on with Blockbuster? Are they going to go against REDBOX kiosk machines. Where are they going to put them? What's going to be there in to reach the rental purchaser? Sure has NOT been price if you've rented a DVD from them later - $4.49 for 2 days on new releases.
  • angel ramirez · 1 year ago
    i use to rent from those other guys but now i only rent from the redbox. you cant beat the price and a great selection of new releases and renting from the redbox is so easy no member ship cards ,credit checks or long lines to wait in . its as easy as 123 select a movie,swipe your card and go.i will never rent from those other guys again. THANKS REDBOX
  • angel ramirez · 1 year ago
    IT ALSO WONT WORK IF YOUR BANK ACCOUNT IS ZERO OR NEG.
  • angel ramirez · 1 year ago
    SHATTERED is a great movie.try that one.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Blockbuster rates are much better then you describe actually. All rentals are 5 days not 2. After the 5 days is up you get 5 more days as a grace period to return the dvd/game. If after having the dvd/game for 11 days and have still not returned it they then charge you the price of the dvd/game. This price is even ststed on your receipt. Now, after you kept the game for 11 days and were charged for it you then have 10 days to bring it back and get your charge refunded for only a $1.25 restocking fee. So you literally can rent a game or movie from Blockbuster for 20 days for the price of 1 rental plus $1.25 or for 10 days for the price of 1 rental. Hope this helps.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    Too bad. You are missing out on a lot of great movies that Blockbuster has exclusive rights too and others that Redbox simply does not stock because alot of room is given to no-name horror films that must be cheap to buy. I like a mix of the 2 differant formats.
  • Tara · 1 year ago
    Blockbuster does have good movies but the Better for the price they charge. They are expensive and of course it seems that you get a better deal because you have 5 days and then the grace period but who really needs 5 days to watch a movie! Honestly, Redbox is the best for overnight rentals, anything under 5 days. I feel that they give better discount codes and promos.
    Blockbuster is sold by the name not the quality. And btw, those are some good so called "no-name horror films". They all have to start somewhere.

  • otrpu · 1 year ago
    I know this is Redbox site, but DVDPlay has free 1 day rental, code HOOP, today only
  • otrpu · 1 year ago
    That's any DVDPlay in any state, I'm in Colorado
  • mike · 1 year ago
    how long does it take you to watch a movie? most movies are 1 1/2 to 2 hours. i can watch a movie in about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. its real easy for me to follow along with.
  • Jake · 1 year ago
    Does anyone know if the codes DVDONME or BREAKROOM ect... will work multiple times? Just want to know cuz they let you type the code in before you slide your card and if it finds it already used it probably just charges you. Also will these work multiple days? I had movies out on both for 2 days bout a week or so ago and havn't been charged yet.
  • craigpb · 1 year ago
    Those 2 along with REDBOX (1st time with card only) work all the time. But you can only use each with 1 card apiece. If you want to use them more than once, just use a different card each time; if you have already used one of the codes for that card, it will tell you and can choose another code, pay or start over.
  • Frank · 1 year ago
    Just wanted to pass along the good word that mondays code is here and works great its X4N19P and has anyone else tried using these codes past midnight?? I've been doing it for the last 4 weeks and around 12:15am I go and get the new releases and it works great.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    All valid points. Actually it takes me about 19 minutes to finish a movie but that is another story. The advantage to the 5+5+10 day rental period for Blockbuster is that I do not have to return the movie the next day. Usually I go to Blockbuster every tuesday to get the newest releases that redbox does not carry. Therefore I am saving my time and gas. Imagine being able to return a redbox new release the following tuesday when you pick up the next new release. I think the advantages of the extra days is clearer now. P.S. I'm not knocking redbox ( I Love It) I'm just not going to knock Blockbuster either.
  • John Las Vegas · 1 year ago
    I watch almost all of the "No-Name" horror movies redbox offers, but for 9 outta 10 there is a very valid reason they did not go to the theaters. :-)
  • fiser · 1 year ago
    and thats why i go to hollywood video to get movies that redbox wont carry nobody has talk about movies release last week, but with todays code i will get two
  • Daniel · 1 year ago
    I usually rent My movies around 6 when i'm on lunch and take them back at the end of the night when I get off work, but for the hell of it I have tested what you are talking about and either last week or the week before it was like 12:28 and it still took it. If I get up there that late I may wait for the midnight switch tonight.
  • angel ramirez · 1 year ago
    thats great i didnt know that how do you get the codes 4 dvdplay? and is there a catch? or is it like redbox?
  • mixed mama · 1 year ago
    you might be charged if it's past the midnight hour!!, even though it didn't show up as the next day. you might be billed. would love to hear from you when you get your credit card bill............
  • mixed mama · 1 year ago
    hey dude,
    please come back again and share the info on freebies with dvdplay. have you ever had a problem with dvdplay? i did the other day. i'll just start using my daughter's card for the freebies.
  • Chip · 1 year ago
    Hey! Success! My Monday code worked! It looks like Redbox time IS on Eastern Standard Time. Hey guys, fix that, would ya?
  • E · 1 year ago
    How about the time on here? It says Frank posted at 8:45am below. I was in the parking lot at Giant until 10:15 refreshing the phone over and over and nothing new. So what zone is this site on? Or are we waiting until someone approves the posts now?
  • Frank · 1 year ago
    Hey I was at my local giant in harrisburg PA at 12:17am and success, it worked like a charm, redbox took the code and allowed me to get my free rentals. Not sure how i am able to do this if they expire at midnight but it worked great for me!!
  • Frank · 1 year ago
    i've been doing this for a couple of weeks now and i have online billing and checked and no charge, the redbox takes the code as if it was monday even though its tuesday
  • Michael · 1 year ago
    This dates/times on this site are all in the Mountain time zone, at least right now they are. We'll see what happens with daylight savings time is over! :)
  • angel ramirez · 1 year ago
    well mixed mama it does not look like john from las vegas is going to share the info on dvdplay so just log on www.dvdplay.com and it shows u how to get a movie 4 49cents and a free rental! enjoy!I DONT MIND TELLING EVERYONE HOW TO GET FREEBIES! so log on everybody!
  • Joey · 1 year ago
    I agree Angel that Redbox is the best solution 'cause Blockbuster can't match up to Redbox's price and my area store doesn't include Red Box new releases in Blue 5 night rental fee. No matter how you look at it..Saving big now thanks to Redbox. Saw on internet they too may venture into kiosks 'cause Redbox is raking it in...If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. huh? So we'll see if Blockbuster has a broader movie selection if and when??Also, about Monday's code, it took me 3 times to activate it. so use start over feature if at first you don't score. About DVDplay website and customer service, as of today no freebie available, just a 49cent rental for newbies. FYI - 10 rentals gets you 1 free rental, movies are $1.49 1st day. $1 eachsubseqent late days.

  • Alicia · 1 year ago
    I just signed up at redbox for the text messaging, but unfortunately i haven't received Wednesdays codes. Does anyone know why that is?

    also when I signed up it said I would be getting Monday codes, not Monday and wednesday.
  • daniel644 · 1 year ago
    The reason it only said monday codes was because the wednesday codes where this month only, and you did not recieve todays code because it takes up to a week before you start recieving the text messages and on top of that if you signed up today you probaly did it after the codes had been sent out for the day,they are sent out between 10 and 11 am eastern time if you signed up after that you would not have recieved it.
