I used to love going to rent a video! We never went to Blockbuster, our village had a little independent one. It was like a corner shop/sweet shop and the video bit was upstairs. We'd go every Friday me and my sister, could rent one film each (think it was like £1.50 or something for the week each) and then go downstairs and get some snacks on the way out.
One thing I really miss is the whole culture of physically buying a CD/vinyl. I used to love actually having a new album to hold and read the booklet of and see the artwork etc. I remember that feeling of going into town to buy a new album that had just come out and it was like exciting to get your hands on it and get home and just sit listening to it playing.
Nowadays you just click a button on your phone... The whole "experience" has been condensed too far.
