We want to let you know that starting next Tuesday, December 2, the price for DVDs will increase to $1.50 a day, and the price for Blu-ray™ Discs will increase to $2 a day. Starting Tuesday, January 6, the price for video games will increase to $3 a day.*
This is only our second price increase in 12 years, and the first for Blu-ray™ Discs and games, so you can be sure that we made this decision very carefully. We know that hearing about a price increase isn't the best news, but we feel it's necessary in order to improve your Redbox experience, while continuing to deliver the best value for new movies and games.
We'll continue to offer you the deals you've come to love when you connect with us via email, text and our social channels. To learn more about our deals, including Redbox Play Pass (our new rewards program, which is giving out double points through the whole month of December), visit the Redbox Deal Zone .

I received an email from them yesterday about the price hike. Like JD said, I don't care how much they charge since I rarely actually pay for a rental.

The first Redbox 12 years ago must have been on Mars because I never saw one in 2002.

I guess I'm just going to rent DVD's from now on, lol.

The founder had a red box filled with DVD's and his friends would slip a dollar in a slot and he would reach in and grab a movie.
