Rewinding the VHS before returning it to the rental store

did you know anybody with one of the quick-rewind boxes? I remember my (much older!) sister had one that was shaped like a race car, and you just put the VHS tape in and closed it and it would super fast rewind it to the beginning

(to make it easier to return videos, "be kind, rewind" etc)

Oh of course. My parents thought the racecar one was tacky so ours was just a rectangle but I do remember enjoying the eject mechanism
