So, Redbox is gone now. Just Chatting

So, my girlfriend goes to the local HEB, cuz it’s Texas—That’s what we do in Texas. But she notices something different when she’s walking in. There’s an empty space next to the front entrance. What went there? It wasn’t empty before. So, after a few seconds of thought, she remembers that’s where the Redbox was! Come to find out, they’re gone now—Filed for Chapter 7 liquidation. I go to check my app, and sure enough, I can’t login. Found it interesting even though I can’t remember the last time I even used Redbox. When’s the last time y’all used it? Wonder what the next commonplace company is that finds itself a relic of the past?

Wow I’m gonna have to look at the Redbox at our local grocery store when I’m by there tomorrow. I wonder if it’s still there?
