None here for a few years and I can't even visualize the vending machine that I used to see people use in the supermarkets!  Will have to look next time I shop.

 

The public library does still have tapes as well as disks.

We have some Red Box around here and the library.

People will have to watch the movie "Clerks" to remember what video rental stores were.

There's still a Blockbuster store in Bend, Oregon.  It's the last one - on Earth!

 

I like The Onion's take on video stores::

None around me anymore.

 

Now, I can get movies from Comcast, but for some reason it was more fun going to Blockbuster.  Maybe, it's because the times were much better than they are now.

I haven't seen one of those in many years.  People haven't rented videos in a long time.  It's funny how videos came on the scene and we flocked to the rental stores and poooof!  It was gone when technology made them obsolete.
