Wow! Hollywood Video is stepping up the plate--I'm guessing because of the competition from RedBox and other $1 Rental companies! Anyway, they are now offering FREE Kids' Movie Rentals, yes... totally FREE rentals!
This is what the news article states:
Families Across the Nation Celebrate Year-Round Free Kids' Movie Rentals. Building upon the fever of summer holiday celebrations, Hollywood Video -- the nation's second largest video chain -- is opening its doors to a new library of hundreds of Free Kids Rental Titles available to families with kids of all ages. From animated features and live-action adventures to educational programs and fantastical musicals, members can enjoy hours of free fun available now at nearly 1,800 Hollywood Video stores nationwide. The new initiative was announced today by Hollywood Entertainment Corporation (NYSE: HLYW) President and COO Jeff Yapp.The new library features children's-oriented titles from studios and networks including Disney, Fox, Jim Henson, Nickelodeon and Paramount. Hollywood Video is making these Free Titles available to all customers, on a first-come-first-serve basis, for their customary five-day rental. Customers are allowed one Free Rental at a time with NO purchase necessary.

Just called our Hollywood Video and the store manager said he never heard of any such promotion.
I saw a sign up in our Hollywood video saying free kids movies. I wondered what it was. Thanks. Now we can go get a free rental.
I just called my store and the store mgr thought I was crazy. He suggested that I call guest services. 18 SPEAK TO US
I would be interested to know if anyone has any success with this program!
FAMILY VIDEO HAS FREE KIDS RENTALS EVERYDAY. ALWAYS HAVE. SORRY 4 CAPS, BROKEN HAND.
Just called my store in Glenmont NY and they said they have not heard of this either.
I posted earlier about seeing the sign in our local Hollywood video. I took my son there this morning and he got a Superman movie. There is not much selection but they were participating.
I called and the Manager said he hadn't heard of this.
Cool! There is one near us too, and the windows are painted with hugs letters saying "Free Movie Rentals For Kids" and I wondered what that meant. I'll have to go check it out! Thanks for the info! :)
