oh boy.

dear red box customers,

i ask for nothing more than the two minutes it will take to return/rent a new movie. is that to much to ask? i stand in line behind you while you spend 10 minutes trying to pick out a movie.
" O what about this one this looks good, it even has (insert name)"
"naw i dont want to see (insert movie genera(sp))"
you go on like that for ten minutes, all the friggin movies are posted on the side... i mean come on.

ok so you find the movies you want, finally... Ya. now it comes time to pay for it. you search in your wallet/purse/5 pockets to find your money. you pull out your dollar bill to pay for it
" o well ill be darned it doesnt take dollars we need to use a card"

there goes another 2 minutes for you trying to find/pick out what card to use. i mean really you're going to over draw with a dollar. give me a break. so now mr./mrs. big date night you slide your card so fast that even the flash would have to shake your hand. well paint me red and nail me to a barn, it doesnt read. then it pops into your head. "i need to slide it 50 million times, that should do the trick."

ok, great now the machine reads it. we're getting somewhere now. so after all that 15 minutes have gone by. i went in there to return a movie/rent that would take no more than 2.

but wait, "is that what i think it is? yes, yes it is. they want my email to send me news letters about red box. well damn i can't pass this offer up"

so you stand there filling out the information. i mean come on you think they will send you a coupon for 50cents off a 1$ dollar movie. But even if they don't you will still get update of the newest releases, and thats all that matters, right?

so finally you get your movie deposited. nope, not one but four... four movies that take a solid 30seconds each to spit out. that might not seem long but it feels like forever when your standing around a bunch of obiese smelly fat folks.

so to sum it all up, i just wasted a solid 20+ minutes of my time that would only take me no more than 2 minutes. thanks for your thoughtfullness and consideration.

now you guys might ask "why dont you just come back later?" its like that all day.

to the op. thanks for making this thread it's what i needed. it might sound stupid but it really chaps my ass!

i was wondering when this type of sit would come up...i think redbox should have a slot on the side that can read the return of the movie...and hell no it should be asking for another email espicially if u cant just opt out and click no and finish ur bizness
