Blink And You'll Miss It.......

Well......sad news:

Don't you hate when you never know how good something is until it's gone? Didn't some crappy hair band from the '80s sing about that? Don't know what you've got till it's gone? Something like that......anyway.......

Radio Shack in Pontotoc was the greatest Radio Shack ever.

You see, they also doubled as a rental place (meaning you could go there and rent movies). But here's the catch: After a few weeks, they would sell the VHS or DVD for $7.95. YES.......you heard me. They would sell the movies after only being out for less than a month....for less than $10!

Well today after weeks of not being able to go to Pontotoc and finally getting to (I arrived today right at closing time..but the old guy let me stay) I was informed by the old guy that 'to be a movie place you have to stay open until 9 or 10.' Which, by the way, they are a family/locally owned store, so they have normal hours. Therefore, they can't really afford to do the movie thing anymore. So today was the last day to buy DVDs from them, and Saturday is the last day for VHS.

Sad, really.
