    I’m at 1 as well for never owning an encyclopedia. I’m actually surprised how many have. I used the ones at the library. I’m assuming this means the physical book kind, and not a digital one like Encarta or something.

      I’d count digital ones as well.

      That’s how I didn’t get the point since none of my leatherback encyclopedias is a complete set (yay backyard sales).

      Like a getting movies in a public library can count as renting at Blockbusters imho?

        I wouldn’t think so on the movie thing. I think it would have to be a video rental store, although not necessarily specifically named Blockbuster. Technically I still “rent” movies at my library through their Kanopy streaming service, but I don’t think that’s in the spirit of the list.

    Only one for me was blockbuster. I was more of a Rogers video child, I’m not sure we even had a blockbuster near us.

      Yeah this one is pretty niche nowadays.

      I did it for my nephews because I found it funny to give them time capsules of what kind of music was broadcasted when they were born. And cassettes are a good medium for long time storage :p

      Where I’m from (France) this is how you pay deposits for rentals.

      We also have “bank cheques” for big expenses like houses.

      Paying with cheques in regular shops is getting rarer, often requires providing two ID, and gets you weird looks. Debit cards have mostly replaced that usage.

      We don’t really have credit cards afaik.
