The World's Final Blockbuster Video Store Is Becoming An Airbnb This September...For $4 A Night

TMZ is reporting that the last remaining Blockbuster Video store is being converted into an Airbnb...for three nights only. Manager Sandi Harding is promoting the store with a once-in-a -lifetime experience which will allow you stay in a makeshift living room smack bang in the middle of the store!

Only three people will be given the opportunity to stay the night, and the crazy thing is that you'll only have to pay $4 for the privilege. The reason for that is because Harding wants to thank her local community for supporting the world's last Blockbuster Video, but the rub is that you have to be a resident of Deschutes County to book yourself in for the night. 

The overnight sleepovers are set to take place between September 18th and September 20th, and free pizza, Pepsi, candy, and popcorn will be included in that bargain $4 price tag.

Oh, and plenty of movies to watch during the night, of course! 

A lot of you will probably only remember Blockbuster Video from Captain Marvel, but for those of you who grew up renting titles from the stores, this will without a doubt be a real blast from the past.

Not sure why anyone would want to spend a night in an old video store, but okay

@dracula - I thought they lost Cheers. I was listening to it in the studio for a couple weeks and it disappeared near the end of the series.

Being part of the last generation who got to enjoy the experience of video stores, blockbuster was a huge part of it. There is an entire generation that will never understand the dilemma of having to choose between two movies you really want to see while your mom is yelling at you to hurry up and pick one while you way the pros and cons of each film, good times.

You can still visit this store and rent things, I did so back in January.

It's in Bend, OR.

I liked the Blockbuster and mom and pop video stores. Used to be a weekend reward in flight school.
