Along with everything else, shopping has changed a lot over the decades. Many people have fond memories of shopping trips with their parents or buying presents for holidays. People have memories of going to the mall with their friends as teenagers or meeting for lunch in the food court. Shopping has always been a significant part of many people's lives for many reasons. It is interesting, though, to see how shopping has changed. From the stores to the products inside, some commonly visited places have totally disappeared.

Of course, as technology advances places like video rental stores and vinyl stores have become less common, replaced by big electronics stores. The new, modern stores are fun and all, but it's also fun and interesting to look back at the stores people used to shop at in the past. Some of them might still exist in select parts of the world, others are gone forever, fondly missed.

Here, we have collected 25 stores from the past that aren't really around anymore. These stores were iconic, and regardless of their absence, many people will have memories, and probably items, from them forever.
