too.    VHS ....was the poop!

[nims57]

I will miss their overpriced ice cream. :insane: My Blockbuster is in the process of becoming a Gap.

  our blockbuster beter not close

[store215]

I really can't understand how any Blockbuster stores are still open. The one near me is dead, and closes very early now on weekdays. I would not be surprised if it closes soon. With Netflix and Redbox being so cheap, I bet the whole company is going to fold before the start of 2010. Face it, video stores are a thing of the past.

[Caldor1999]

the one by me downsized i thin with in the next year or so they will go out video/dvd renting is a thing of the past

[TRU7536]

The one in Rocky Hill is closing down. They have "Going out of business" signs all over the place

[wwefan101]

 haha ours  ant going anware

[TRU7536]

Newington, CT is also closing down as well.

[DerangedHermit]

The Medford, NY closed as well. Whatever, it was in a horrible location.

[d_fife]

give me a list of all of them closing

[dmx10101]

Alot of the stores are starting their closing sales, but no official closing list has been released yet.

[beachbum2704]

Warwick RI closing soon!!
Coventry RI closed 2 yrs ago

[KmartDanny09]

I'm surprised that they haven't closed earlier.

In Toledo, one of the Blockbusters hardly has any cars (even during the peak days of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday). Yet the Family Video do the road has a full parking lot on those days and lots of cars on the other days...

Family Video, which is a regional video store privately-held and run by (you guessed it) a family, continues to thrive in this economy.

Unlike Blockbuster's prices of over 3 dollars to rent a new release, Family Video offers new release rentals starting at $2.75. Other video rentals start at $1.99. Children's movies are free... how Blockbuster compete with that?

I see a total collapse of Blockbuster within the next year and half or two years.

the Blockbuster by me is closeing 50%off :hurt: a pic will come:holysh:

[wwefan101]

 i went past mine   and evey day they had at leasrt 5 to 10 cars in ther parking lot so ther keepign busy hoping they dont close

[store215]

Well, just as I suspected the Blockbuster near me is closing. Saw people on the corner waving 50% off signs. Good riddance.

[Marc82]

It appears the one in Bristol, CT is staying open. There are no closing signs on the building or on in the windows. They're in the same plaza as Price Chopper (ex KMART, Caldor, and Grants). They opened in 91.

[EddieJ1984]

Lots of blockbusters closing around the philly area. I need to see if the one by me is open or closin.

[jmcnamara96]

Lots in NH are going out with signs saying stores closing

[KmartDanny09]

Not sure if the one near my house is closing... however, the store has handmade signs promoting 5 movies for $20. While I didn't see the standard liquidation signs, there are "landlord" signs stating that "prime business locations available" and "will subdivide" are on 3 of the four sides of the building.

If the store closed, it wouldn't be a shock... the Family Video down the road does a much better business and has much better customer service that Blockbuster could only wish to have

[wwefan101]

my store dotn look like ther close to closeing  it  still looks busy all the time

[mikey7290]

I noticed a couple of weeks ago that the two Nice-N-Easy convenience stores here in Ogdensburg (NY) each have a "Blockbuster Express" machine in them.

[Bdubs]

Big Y has also input these "Blockbuster Express" machines in their stores.  They're about 3 years behind everyone else.
Sorry Blockbuster, but laughing and sitting idle thinking RedBox and Netflix was just a fad was a HUGE fatal error.

Plus, memberships are a pain in the ass.  Late fees too.

[reitelle]

I never see anyone go into our local Blockbuster so I'm not quite sure how they stay afloat, especially when you can get any movie for free online streaming or just download it : /

Saves the drive, money, and time of trying to find a video you've wanted for years lol

[jmcnamara96]

The one in Nashua NH near Royal Ridge Mall is GOB
also this is the one in Hudson NH

It's official... the Springfield, PA Blockbuster is now closing. Someone crashed a car into this store a while back. Wayne, PA is already down. One in West Philadelphia closed a long time ago. Now the other one down the road is winding down.

[Marc82]

One in West Philadelphia closed a long time ago.

*Plays the Will Smith Song* In West Philadelphia Born and Raised.................  :D

why is Blockbuster shutting down some? And recently I had a dream that I was in a blockbuster and was in a bad mood and I threw a book at someones arm  and the clerk saw it and I got banned, si that what would happen in real life? abnd anything else?

I saw that the one in Epping is gone

[d_fife]

I saw a Blockbuster in Brunswick NJ vacant and the ones in South Nashua, Londonderry and Epping are gone
