God, I love this! Bringing me back to my childhood and teenaged years. I used to go to Blockbuster every Friday night, rent a movie and ofcourse buy boxes of candy and the microwaveable popcorn that came in the bucket. I also loved buying their discount DVDs in the bargain bins. I'll never forget when popular new movies came out and the whole shelf would be that one movie. It would make me so excited. There would always be so many other people at Blockbuster on a Friday night. This roleplay was spot on. Sincerely, I really want to thank you for bringing part of my childhood and teenage years back. I sometimes think we are moving too fast as a society. Ephemeral everything, where nothing is physical, and everything is in the ever-present cloud. I know people hated the late fees and I get it but I miss Blockbuster. I missed dropping my videos off after hours in the slot. I miss videos, period. I miss "Be Kind, Please Rewind". I miss physicality in this world where I feel everything is disappearing into the ether. Thank you 💖
This comment brings so much JOY to me!!! I agree with all your sentiments and the value of enjoying the present. We live in a fast paced world in so many aspects. There is so many things I miss about Blockbuster and the way you described the excitement of picking up a new set of movies every week REALLY brought me back! This is why I LOVE what I do!!! I love putting smiles on peoples faces. Sending you my love.
I do not like roleplays normally but I saw “BLOCKBUSTER” and I clicked so fast my wig flew off (which was bound to happen with this!). Blockbuster was my childhood! Kids these days will never understand the joy of going to one and that movie on VHS Position to bring back blockbuster!
*singing* "blockbuster video wow what a difference" can't thank you enough for taking me back to my childhood.. Friday nights back in the 90s were a thing of beauty for us back in those times.. life at least for me was so simple and beautiful without advanced technology.. thank you again I really appreciated this...
My parents used rental movies to keep me occupied when I was little and I remember the joy I felt looking at all the movies, games I would never play but always want to, and snacks. The free rentals were the best. Thank you for giving a piece of my childhood back!
I feel like Sarai is like that with ALL of her videos! she has me convinced that she works in some kind of retail job, is a nurse, and a million other professions. she’s very convincing
Your hair looks super cute! In Australia it used to be VideoEazy we would go down every Friday night & get 2 or 3 movies for the weekend & popcorn. Holy throwback I loved this. 💕
Rewatching this in the time of COVID and I just added like 3 movies to my watch list: Bill and Ted, The Bone Collector, and Wolf. Also, I love the sound of vhs tapes. So soothing
Hi Sarai. There is only 1 left still currently in operation in Oregon. VHS cassettes to watch movies and knowing to either take the tapes back on a certain date, or keep them for a higher price. These media kills room at home and accumulates our homes. Now we store stuff online and memory cards, external discs.
Peace and Saraity ASMR I found your asmr channel. It gives me comfort and happiness. I learned a lot from watching your video. I am a Korean asmr creator. Nice to meet you.❤️
The 90s are finally nostalgic....I've been waiting for this day for 20 years 🤣🤣🤣 btw these shops only started closing down in the past few years...what do people do now anyway??
As a 90’s baby was a real treat for me. I miss blockbuster, I used to always rent video games and movies on the weekends all the time as a kid. This is my new favorite asmr role play. Much ❤️😊
go to blockbuster.. scope out boys. read the back of vhs covers for literally ever. was always a treat when my dad said we could pick our own movies out. when Romeo and Juliet came out there was like a 3 month wait.
I got major nostalgia from this! Blockbuster wasn’t huge here but we had similar services and when I was a kid in the late 90s/early 2000s we’d rent movies a lot, especially horror movies. I think it’s where my love for them comes from. We’d spent so much time browsing the shelves and trying to decide based on the covers.
i live only a 10 minute drive from the last blockbuster and my family and i always love picking out some movies and watching them all together. its our favorite pastime and im so glad that we still have it around ☺️
Thank you!! I get nostalgic for blockbuster all the time, simpler times to be honest! Used to be such a novelty to rent a movie for the weekend. We have spoilt ourselves now xx
I remember going to the blockbuster at my grandparent’s house when I was little. I have this very strong memory of seeing a copy of bee movie and just staring at it in awe. It still haunts me to this day.
Gosh I kinda miss the VHS boxes and cases now. There was something so charming about them~ Thinking about it, it wasn't THAT long ago we were still watching things on VHS. Time flies and gosh that is both cool and terrifying.
Omg I remember as a kid me and my sister and dad will go to blockbuster and look for movies and we’d always rent a movie every friday night and of course get candy and it was always fun walking into the place i miss those days this gives me so much nostalgia 💞😭
Omfg the background looks so accurate too and you have a real name tag!! We have movies so easy these days no more rushing in only to find out someone had already rented the movie you wanted
2000s baby but this place was literally amazing asf. My family would all go pick one movie each and and grab snacks then go home and enjoy our movie night. Those were the days😭👌
As I was born in 2001 I am technically not a 90's kid, but there were still so many 90's trends sticking around when I was young! I have always loved movies, and this roleplay was SO SPOT ON!! There used to be a Blockbuster about 5-10 minutes away from my house and I remember going to there all the time!! My family has sooooooo many movies from there! Awww I miss it, but I believe everything happens for a reason, although it is bittersweet it is really fascinating how much/fast our world has changed. Thank you for this video Sarai!! It was so good and as usual, the sounds were amazing!
Great job sarity I remember the white rabbit asmr/ella doing a blockbuster roleplay a couple years back or almost a couple years ago this was superb 🤗👍
love the video! your hair is too cute! there was a grocery store near me that recently remodeled. but before they did, they were under a local name, and had been there since i was a kid. back then, there was a blockbuster inside! i loved going, it was so exciting! when blockbuster fizzled out, they turned that section into a vacancy that mostly held cases of alcohol LOL. i miss it a lot 😊❤️ but your roleplay brought me back! PS: i hope this goes without saying, but a part two would be incredible. i’m only halfway through and i’m sad about finishing! maybe a roleplay where the customer returns and you two discuss the movies together? ☺️
This brought back memories lol even though I was born in early 2000s I remember it fairly well, my family went there often since we didnt have cable TV, the elderly employee who was somehow always there whenever we came in didn't like children, he would always give me dirty accusing looks, I remember one time a couple was messing around next to the shelf and knocked some movies off they quickly ran to a different aisle leaving me being the only person there, the man didnt even let me explain what happened and started yelling at me like not even mild yelling but full on complaining why this was the reason he didnt like children...many years later and he's words still haunt me, I hope he's happy somewhere out there...
I think you and I around the same age, but you remind me so much of my cool totally 90's babysitters when I was a kid. It's the best kind of nostalgia. Thank you!
Your hair looks super cute like this!! Also your makeup looks so good but you really should add lashes so it ties your look together. I honestly think the lashes are the most important part!

this made me so sad i miss going to blockbuster and then finding out the movie i wanted someone else already rented 😭😭
vins yes!!!! That always happened to me!!!
Such good times!!! Hahaha I remember that happening!
I do not like roleplays normally but I saw “BLOCKBUSTER” and I clicked so fast my wig flew off (which was bound to happen with this!). Blockbuster was my childhood! Kids these days will never understand the joy of going to one and that movie on VHS
Position to bring back blockbuster!
Sierra Your entire comment was a mood when I saw the video title, too. 🤣
she can pull off any hairstyle. 🤦🏽♀️❤️
that's my babygirl
I love when you get so creative with your role plays!! ❤️
Thank You!
Who else felt that Blockbuster was a second home and the snacks where bomb af
Omg *Blockbusters* 😭❤️ so many emotions right now, good old days lol
Btw, *90’s baby in the Houseeee* 🥰 lol
Jailyn SoTalkative totally takes me back to the 90’s !!!!
I know such GOOD times!!!!

Jailyn SoTalkative Same! ‘93 here
This just solidified you as the best in ASMR😍😍😍😍😍😍 blockbuster + horror movies = my childhood. And those pigtails where definitely the vibe back then
Awwww! BLESS YOU!!!!
I like horror movies because of the music
...
they all have killer soundtracks
.
Kimpy ASMR hahaha!!!!

Kimpy ASMR LMAOOOO

deadass did she used to work there? she’s really good!
too small for the mall for reals!!!!!
You are too sweet!! No but I wish I had!!!
I feel like Sarai is like that with ALL of her videos! she has me convinced that she works in some kind of retail job, is a nurse, and a million other professions. she’s very convincing
amy katherine soooo true!!!
Sarai is the Barbie of ASMR videos. She’s had every profession, and plays it like an expert every time 😊
Man I miss blockbusters! From going down each aisle to pick a movie to buying boxes of candy😭 heck I can even remember the smell of the place lol
This just makes me so happy 😊😊...kids today will never know the joy of blockbuster or even Hollywood video....u r legit the best ever😍😍😍😊😊😊😘😘😘😘
I know! Kids have things way to easy these days! Everything is fast gratification....you want it....you stream it...boom!
@@PeaceandSaraity exactly u can just stream whatever u want...they wont know the heartbreak of them being out of the movie u wanted to see
This generation might be the last to ever know what blockbuster is
Of course they are
The first half of generation z is gonna be the last to remember how big of a deal dvds were
@@mayoman-pv1lj Yeah the nearest blockbuster to me at the time closed down in 2015 when I was 12 or 13
Yip every Friday night..... #90’s date nights lol Blockbusters stores also had that “blockbuster smell”
Such good times!!! I remember the AC was always blasting and YES that blockbuster smell!
Your hair looks super cute!
In Australia it used to be VideoEazy we would go down every Friday night & get 2 or 3 movies for the weekend & popcorn. Holy throwback I loved this. 💕
Ok this is like my third time trying to watch this video because I KEEP ON FALLING ASLEEP 😭 ♥️
THIS VID IS SO GOOD
Rewatching this in the time of COVID and I just added like 3 movies to my watch list: Bill and Ted, The Bone Collector, and Wolf. Also, I love the sound of vhs tapes. So soothing
Hands down the best role play I have seen. The props, the background, perfect! Great video!

These media kills room at home and accumulates our homes. Now we store stuff online and memory cards, external discs.
absolutely love this! taking it straight back, the props you have are everything! LOVE LOVE LOVE, thank you
I remember every Friday how me and my family used to go to the video shop to rent movies
Such a pretty assistant.
Always returned my rental late and ended up paying a fine. 📼🍿
Another great rp Sarai x
If ASMR was around in 2004
Joseph Tafur and binaural mics and 1080p60 HD quality cameras 🤣
This is perfect. Absolutely perfect. I love your 90s icy eye shadow.
back watching this for the second night in a row☺️❤️ i really love the feeling it gives me. so bittersweet and relaxing!
This is seriously bringing me back !! Love this !
The iconic 2 VHS titanic hah I remember being so excited about that movie
OMG YASSS. CANT WAIT TO WATCH THIS! ❤️
Blockbuster! Wow that’s a blast from the past 😆🔥
It sure was!!!!
Peace and Saraity ASMR I found your asmr channel. It gives me comfort and happiness. I learned a lot from watching your video. I am a Korean asmr creator. Nice to meet you.❤️
Omg, there was an ad before this video started and it was an ASMR ad!!! Yes RUclips!!!! More quiet ASMR ads on these videos and less obnoxious ones.
This reminds me of my childhood. Redbox was so magical
The 90s are finally nostalgic....I've been waiting for this day for 20 years 🤣🤣🤣 btw these shops only started closing down in the past few years...what do people do now anyway??
joanne Netflix and Redbox. 🙄 duh

Looking like an anime character
Love this!!!!
This is like a talking Netflix and I love it, you look so beautiful btw
Every movie you showed I've watched and loved!
I remember going to the blockbuster at my grandparent’s house when I was little. I have this very strong memory of seeing a copy of bee movie and just staring at it in awe. It still haunts me to this day.
Your gentle tapping on the tapes was everything!! So relaxing
Gosh I kinda miss the VHS boxes and cases now. There was something so charming about them~ Thinking about it, it wasn't THAT long ago we were still watching things on VHS. Time flies and gosh that is both cool and terrifying.
This is IT. I love stuff like this!!!
This is a big flashback!! I love it!! You're looking beautiful as usual!!
Ahhh I worked at Blockbuster up until the bitter end. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love the attention to detail. What a relaxing, tingly, and nostalgic video 😁
We had Blockbuster in the UK too!! Feeling the Nostalgia
Yes i remember renting the same movie over and over
this takes me back to going to blockbuster with my grandma when I was little I used to love it
Omg I remember as a kid me and my sister and dad will go to blockbuster and look for movies and we’d always rent a movie every friday night and of course get candy and it was always fun walking into the place i miss those days this gives me so much nostalgia 💞😭
Thank you SO much for this! I never usually comment but this was just outstanding. I had to let you know how much I loved it!!
This was literally how all my favorite weekends started! This was the video I needed to see but didn't know it!! Loved it - Thank you!!! ❤

As a teenager in the 90s blockbuster was legit, very convincing role play, maybe you can do a 90s grunge rock nostalgia video
This was AWESOME!!!!! I sooooo miss Blockbuster! Thanks for the memories! Most excellent. And good movie choices!
I want to bring this back so bad 😭
Memories Man!!!! My dad use to take me and my sister to Blockbuster on the nights our mom had to work ❤❤❤

Where the frick did you get the bag from?
I'll never tell....
Ok...Ebay.....You can find just about anything on there. LMAO.
@@PeaceandSaraity 😂😂 you really can get anything. Bet the person that put it up for sale was like... worth a shot. You made their day!
Girl you just get more beautiful with each and every video😭😭❤️
I heard about your channel a few days ago, and I already fell in love with your content! You are amazinggggg, Sarai!
Last existing Blockbuster is about 3 hours from me. Its located in Bend, Oregon.
This. Needs. Way. More. Views. I think I've commented on this video before but this was just so well done.
I absolutely loved this video!! One of my favorites of yours
Oh man I miss blockbusters that was my favorite childhood memories I used to love to watch movies when I was little kid. Good old days, Good times ❤
You put so much work into this! This was awesome!! And of course, very relaxing 😴
Where I live the nearest blockbuster was 70 miles from me. Never got to go to one. The store we had here was good enough. It's gone now too :(
Your hair looks super cute like this!! Also your makeup looks so good but you really should add lashes so it ties your look together. I honestly think the lashes are the most important part!
Your hair is so cute in this omg!
Omg The Craft ❤️
one of my fave role plays you’ve ever done 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Underrated video
I love you so much!! I wanted to work there when I was in high school ❤💞 2000 to 2003.
