WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) -- Soon folks in Monkey Junction won't be able to make it a Blockbuster night. The Blockbuster store on South College Road is closing.
A store employee tells WWAY it will stop renting movies Thursday. Then a clearance sale starts Friday. The worker said there's no date set for when the store will close for good.
Blockbuster has closed other stores nationwide recently, including one near Independence Mall in Wilmington, because of sagging business due to online, kiosk and mail order rentals.
Monkey Junction Block Buster Closing
This is not right for Block Buster to close down. I always Went there all the time since I moved here 4 years ago. Now since Block Buster closed down I don't know what to do. I don't want to do netflix because that is probably what caused Block Buster to close.
