I had no idea.OH. Frelan has a CRAZY middle name. Just as wonky as his first. Mine is Michelle...
I had no idea.
What do you think of "location" names, like Memphis or Montana?
have I mentioned that we didnt decide on Mikalahs name until she was born?
Hollywood Video -- old news I think, they downsized a few years ago
Levitz-- closed shop awhile ago aorund here
Sharper Image-- old news, gradually closed stores. Will have online store and a a few flagship stores only.
Performance Team Freight --- Never heard of em
Linens n Things ** Can't remember which one, but they have already been liquidating the stores. Closed a few. I heard they are no longer taking the competitor coupons. But they are only at 10% off at some locations - meh, not worth it. Keep an eye on their online stores for deals
Bed, Bath and Beyond ** see above
Circuit City --- Closed a few locations a year ago. Haven't heard anything recent. They typically suck as far as prices go -- unless you find clearance mixed in with current product.
We still have most of these stores here.
Except for the Performance Team Freight, I've never heard of them, either.
I drove by the local Linens and Things last week with DS8, and he noticed their Going Out of Business sign up, we were so surprised!
The only Levitz I ever went to was the one in Tukwila, but that was years ago.

I dont know.. But we never went back. If it wasnt right on the freeway, we would have never noticed it close down.

So he picked up his free rental, haven't been back. RedBox with a free code sounds sooooooooo much better. 
We SUCK at returning movies.
We just do Netflix.. It is just easier! no late fees ever, which is what tends to get us..
We put sticky notes on the door to remind us
Take the movie back!
Blockbuster (by mail) was nice, being able to switch them out in the store and still get more rentals off your que. Sweet deal but I think they made it harder to do it on the cheapest subscription. The turn around on movies was very fast , people were flipping movies and get new ones mailed out-- I htink Blockbuster was losing money on it. Now they limit it to x per month to exchange. Darn they got smart.
I wish that would work for us. We would put it in the car... and forget. Ir not see the note. We just werent meant to borrow.
We've watched movies online too-- you know .. the ones in Chinese with the english subtitles.. really grainy picture and you can hear people talking in the background.
I set a calendar reminder on the computer, and set it to start bugging me the day before they HAVE to be back.
WOOHOO!!! One of my best friends just gave notice today!
She's been so unhappy at her job, and working MASSIVE hours with no end in sight. She has three young children and was basically missing out on their childhood, going to work before they're up and getting home well after they're in bed.
She was very nervous, but did it anyway, and she is OVER THE MOON happy now!
Another of my best friends goes to this every year. I went one year, many years ago. It was probably smaller then, because she describes so many things that I didn't see back then.
I tell ya. We've been worried sick about her, because she was only getting about 3 hours of sleep a night, was so stressed all the time. Somehow she wsa still a sane person and a fantastic mom WHEN she was with the kids, but it's just too much for any one person to try to handle. I am sooo glad she is quitting, and so glad her husband has been so supportive through her crazy hours, and continues to be so when she said she had to get out!Good for her!
