Reveal Your Movie Guilty Pleasure and Win $1,000 from Redbox!

June 29, 2011 By Leave a Comment

What do you do for Summer Fun? As hot as it is here in New Orleans, we try to find as much indoor fun as possible which means lots of movies and popcorn with the kids! To celebrate summer fun, Redbox is asking moms, “What movie meant for kids do you secretly love to watch?” Plus, they are rewarding 2 lucky people with a chance to win $10,000 as part of the Redbox Summer of Fun & Games Sweepstakes.

Because we have been watching lots of movies to escape the heat, I have been stuck watching many, many, many features made for kids. I have taken in my share of Hannah Montana, High School Musical, Camp Rock, Fresh Beat Band, Barney, and Dora the Explorer. But, I will admit, one movie that I secretly love to watch with my girls is Disney’s “Princess and the Frog.” Seeing your own hometown and culture in impeccable Disney animation is incredible! I get a kick out of the accents (tell me I don’t really sound like that) and will admit to singing along with Princess Tiana on more than one occasion. And in case you are wondering, yes…..we own the DVD.

Now it’s your turn to fess up! I know I’m not the only one out there watching my kids’ DVDs! What’s your guilty pleasure?

Redbox is celebrating summer family time with a great line up of family-friendly titles, awesome savings and two chances to win $10,000 as part of the Redbox Summer of Fun & Games Sweepstakes.*

Is it Better in Blu? Win a Blu-ray Player and Rentals from Redbox! {24 Hour Giveaway!}

December 14, 2010 By

This year, I have been fortunate enough to work with Redbox quite often.  Before this time, I had no idea that Redbox even existed or how to use it.  Now, I am a Redbox Regular!  About the company:

“For added convenience, customers can visit www.redbox.com to choose their title online and pick it up immediately at the redbox location of their choice. At redbox.com, consumers can select their favorite movies from up to 200 available titles, choose from thousands of redbox locations nationwide for pick-up, and provide valid credit or debit card information to guarantee the title’s availability. Once payment is confirmed, the selected DVDs are held for the customer at the chosen redbox location for 24 hours. Redbox.com leverages real-time inventory data and will provide an alternative location if the selected redbox does not have the title in stock.”

We have rented many, many DVDs from Redbox over the course of the year, but I will admit that I have yet to rent a movie in Blu-ray.  Probably because I don’t have a player….I mean, what’s so good about Blu-ray anyway?  After reading on the Better on Blu-ray website, I learned that movies on Blu-ray not only look better, but sound better to!  And you don’t need a fancy-smancy TV to enjoy the benefits of Blu-ray.  The movies look better even on older televisions!

Do you want to see if it is really “Better in Blu-ray?”  Each time you rent a movie at a local Redbox and provide your email address between now and December 31st, you will be entered to win a fabulous Blu-ray Prize Pack which includes a Blu-ray Player AND an entire year’s worth of rentals!

GIVEAWAY

Are you a fan of instant gratification?  Hate to wait till December 31st to see if you won the Better in Blu Sweepstakes?  Well, you don’t have to!!  Thanks to Redbox, one lucky reader will win their very own Blu-ray Prize Pack including a Blu-ray player and a year’s worth of Redbox rentals (ARV $175)!!

How to enter:

1. Visit Redbox and tell me what movie you would rent on Blu-ray first!

Additional entries:

1. Blog about this giveaway and link to The Not-So-Blog (10 extra entries).

Redbox says Thanks a Billion with FREE Rentals!

September 28, 2010 By

Around my home, we are trying to tighten up the budget in order to save some money for the holidays.  This means less dinners out and less money for entertainment.  Fortunately, there are several redbox locations near me!  Not familiar with redbox? From a press release:

redbox“For added convenience, customers can visit www.redbox.com to choose their title online and pick it up immediately at the redbox location of their choice. At redbox.com, consumers can select their favorite movies from up to 200 available titles, choose from thousands of redbox locations nationwide for pick-up, and provide valid credit or debit card information to guarantee the title’s availability. Once payment is confirmed, the selected DVDs are held for the customer at the chosen redbox location for 24 hours. Redbox.com leverages real-time inventory data and will provide an alternative location if the selected redbox does not have the title in stock.”

Because I have two young daughters, it is no surprise that princess movies are popular on movie night.  So I was thrilled to learn that Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue DVD is available now at 24,000 redbox locations.  We can take this movie home for just $1 to create a fun and inexpensive family experience.  However, even if your family members prefer a more “manly” movie, redbox has a special treat for you!  In celebration of 1 billion movies rented, redbox is giving everyone that rents a movie during the month of  September a free rental!

GIVEAWAY

Do you want to have a redbox family movie night? One reader will receive FIVE free one night rental codes!
