Saying goodbye to Family Video, one of the last video rental stores

The pandemic was the final hit to Family Video, a store that had only a few hundred left in the midwest.

It's so sad to see something like this fall away. Thankfully, there are still some locally owned video stores left.

There was nothing better than grabbing a few movies on a Friday evening from Family Video or Blockbuster. Good times back in the day.

It still is! These people still should have supported them.

You can rent movies at the public library if you have a library card...

[@Elohimless]

The public library basically is a local video rental "store" unfortunately the majority of society don't utilize them. Which baffles my mind, cause you can rent movies for FREE.

I am sorry that Family Video went out of business.

[@wisconsinrebelhomes7587]

Family Video would still be here if it wasn't for the Stupid Pandemic! They should of kept 1 open like Blockbuster because they lasted so long! R.I.P. Family Video!
