'A sad day': One of the Border's last video stores shuts its doors
My husband and I met at a DVD store. Mark by the time we have grandchildren and tell our story, our grandkids won't even understand what a DVD is. Have to admit, I miss the days of going in to the DVD store on a Friday evening and choosing movies for the whole weekend. Tash Collis

Instead of throwing them away and causing waste they could sell them to the libraries in the area for people who can't afford Netflix etc for a low price and at least get something for them. Paul Black
We rarely use a DVD, we keep a few good ones on hand at home, only as a just in case though, most things we can stream cheaper then you can rent them. Andrew Pech
You knew it was going to happen sooner or later ... with almost everyone having more than one streaming service now there's no need for video stores anymore. Di Burrowes
Plan to replace motel with servo and takeaway stores
There are enough servos and fast food outlets. Why not make it some other sort of business, something fun for families and children. There are not enough of them. Perhaps even another cinema. There is only one and it's in Albury and kids' movies are not available after lunch. Cobes Mitchem
Another one. Think we've got enough service stations already. And right on a roundabout too, that'll be fun for traffic. Kahlia Clarkson
Would make five servos within 1km of each other Nik Kovacs
Another stupid decision from Wodonga Council. I mean, that's JUST what we need ... yet another servo. What we do actually need is the old Wodonga Pound building re-opened and handed over to Wodonga Dog Rescue. But hey, why would council actually listen to what the people who pay their wages want? Terri Bailey
Here we are in Killara wanting a Fuel IGA combination and cannot get any movement. Just absolutely crazy. Want to hope VICROADS don't close the Hume access as previously suggested. Peter Hollman
How about keeping the motel and helping some legit homeless peeps. Jodi Derrick
Why is another servo needed there's already two down the road Emily Bollingmoore
I'd still go to APCO. I don't see the point in putting another servo there, council need to rethink this proposal. Megan Stanyer
Keep prices down a bit, more competition. Geoff Davidson
