If you are renting any $1 Redbox movies this weekend, hurry and head over to Redbox Thanks a Billion sweepstakes to enter your code. Everyone who enters a code wins a free one-night movie rental (redeemable within 7 days) in this sweepstakes that ends September 30. And the first 1,500 people who enter a code win a free t-shirt (mailed to you within 6 to 8 weeks). I entered my code at 3pm CT Sunday and got a t-shirt! The code is the 9-digit code found near the white scan bar in the middle of the DVD. You also have to enter the name of the movie you rented. A billion thanks goes to Ginnie for sharing on my Facebook Fan page – I’m sending her a free SoBe to thank her.
Watch your text messages on Monday, September 6 for your free Redbox Rental code valid only on that day for one-time use (you can not share the code). When you first register for a Redbox account you’re second online Redbox rental will be free. After you create your Redbox account you can subscribe to Text Messages (look under “Edit Notifications & Subscriptions” at “Your Account”) and get a unique code for a free movie rental the first Monday of each month sent to you via text message
You need to make sure you return your one-night movie rental before it’s due to avoid an additional night’s rental fee of $1.00. Check to find your closest Redbox location, there are over 17,000. These codes can only be used “at-the-Redbox” kiosk and can not be used online to reserve the movie you want.
Shareable codes that are probably still valid:
DVDATWAG (works only at Walgreens locations)
DVDKROG (works only at Kroger locations)
DVDONME
BREAKROOM

I got the same e-mail with the shirt and code…thanks Heather!!!
Nowhere in the contest rules is it mentioned that everyone who enters this promotion gets a free rental or that the first 1500 get a t-shirt.
If you submit a redbox DVD code and its movie title at http://www.redbox.com/thanks, you may win: Grand prize is a choice of a trip to the People’s Choice Awards OR a Home Theater package. Also, 50 Instant Win $500 gift cards are available to be won.
This Giveaway doesn’t start until September 7th (the rules say it runs from 9/1 – 9/30) but tonight, Customer Service told me that the first week is for promotional purposes only.
The rules are long, but worth looking through to avoid confusion –
http://www.thanksabilliongiveaway.com/official-rules. Again…the promotion doesn’t actually start until September 7th.
Redbox did send me an email saying that they were sending me a t-shirt and they gave me a code for a free movie. I’m guessing that they really are sending me the t-shirt and that the code they gave me will work. Maybe the free rental offer is only valid until the actual sweepstakes starts on September 7? Thanks for leaving a comment!
Thanks, I got a free code and a Tshirt! You rock!
