The sky is grey, the wind is whistling and there’s no sign of the sun, so grab a warming drink, dress in your favorite casual clothes and settle down to watch the best movies for a rainy day. When the rain is beating down and you can’t get outside, you want great movies to take your mind off the weather; movies to make you feel good, or movies so engrossing that you become immune to anything but what’s happening on-screen.
Redbox Codes are the way to get free DVD rentals from Redbox. You simply need to enter the coupon code from the main screen or just before checkout at your local Redbox kiosk. When you do, you will receive a one-day free rental. Any additional days you keep the movie will be charged at the usual $1/day.
Here are all the latest Redbox codes for FREE rentals or discounted rentals when you use the codes!

Harvest Moon Tonight – Send Us Your Pics
Summer is drawing to a close in the Northern Hemisphere, and a symbol of fall hangs in the sky tonight (Sept. 19) to help drive that fact home — the Harvest Moon.
The Harvest Moon is the full moon that falls closest to the autumnal equinox, which marks the beginning of fall in the Northern Hemisphere. This year, the equinox falls on Sunday (Sept. 22), and the moon reaches its full phase in North America overnight from Wednesday to Thursday (Sept. 18-19).
This full moon is called the Harvest Moon because many fruits and vegetables tend to ripen in the late summer and early fall in the Northern Hemisphere. In the days before electricity, farmers relied heavily on this moon’s light, working late into the evening to harvest their crops.
Send us your pictures and videos and we will post them up here.
