I had a Hollywood Video that I always went to so I'm really bummed out about that.

Well hollywood did go down, I heard blockbuster is having some issues as well because of Netflix and buy movies off from internet and whatnot.

The others probably not so much. Bed, Bath and Beyond? My friends dad is manager there and Im sure I would hear about it.

Who here actually goes to Circuit City? I do when Best Buy doesnt have something because they are sold out. Otherwise I never shop there, Im surprised that place is still open.

Thats just my thought on the matter for those stores. :)

Wow...lotta big names there. Pretty soon the only stores to go to will be Wal-Mart and Costco

But you'll be able to get EVERYTHING at Costco! You'll even be able to get your law degree from Costco (in between those awesome Starbucks "Lattes" :P)

Nobody else will understand, but I know you'll get that, Term. ;)

I go to Circuit City whenever I want a CD or DVD, they always have the best deals on CD's and a amazing collection

my dad is a store manager, makes good money.

my brother also works for bed bath at a different store.

i was thinking of heading over there but i'd have to go to one in a different city so that makes it a bit of a commute

Just because a business files for bankruptcy doesn't mean they are going out of business completely.
