I'm in Chicago for my company at the moment and since it's weekend, I wanted to grab some DVDs. Unfortunately, the Virgin Megastore closed down for good, and Borders Bookstore is kind of expensive...

So any ideas where I can grab some DVDs? I'm located at Canal/Jackson, and despite my extensive walks through the city, there seems to be no real mediastore here....

If you goggle any major store, go to their site they will have a store locator and map directions.

Try Best Buy
Circuit City
or Target .  While none of these are purely dvd stores, they all have a good, fairly inexpensive selection.

There is a Target downtownish, not sure how far from where you are staying. There's also a Best Buy a few miles north of downtown off of I94.  The best places are probably more out in the burbs though. 

Try to get to Heaven on 7 for a bowl of gumbo and a jalapeno corn muffin. They are located at Ohio and Rush. I try to hit that place every time I'm there.

You could always ask them if they deliver - it'd be worth it if they yes, just to see their faces when you give the delivery address!

Probably, but it's just a 20 minute walk there and I need the exercise considering the food here
