A new little store's just opened round the corner from me. I'll check it out as soon as the guy removes the huge Wimbledon poster from the window...

I do. Especially since Blockbuster went with the no late fees policy. I still haven't really figured out how that works, but I haven't seen any late fees on my account the past few times I've turned in movies like 5 days late.



I do support my local store, it is a family owned and run, there only problem is that they are to small

There are no independents where I live.

I use Netflix, the library, or if I have to find something rare, I go to
Scarecrow Video.

Scarecrow is 31 miles from my house, is that still local?

I work 55 miles from my home, so it's not to far out of the way.

Holden Pike, I'll be sure to check it out the next time I go to Oregon, no sales tax!

Next time your in Seattle you should check out Scarecrow Video, I haven't been to Movie Madness, but Scarecrow claims to have the largest selection in the Northwest.

Well....one of the girls behind the counter in mine looks like a bloke.

...and there's a funny smell out back...



sadly no, i just go to blockbuster.



I voted for What?

The girl at Blockbuster had a crush on me but then I didn't rent for a few days and she got mad and started giving me the cold shoulder. I don't rent there anymore because now that I broke up with my gf I want to do the blockbuster girl and she's mad at something she made up in her imagination.



In Soviet America, you sue MPAA!

I vote for Sunfrog staying more often.

And if anyone lives in the Northern VA area, come rent movies from me at my friend's store, Videopix. We've got lots of porn!
