There is a place called "The Camera Company" located in Norwood that used to do that.

is it 8MM or VHS? Most camera shops can do 8MM. Most electronics stores and Amazon sell DVD recorders pretty cheap that copy VHS to DVD

DVD recorder

I bought a DVD recorder off Amazon at the suggestion of folks here - very cheap ~100 and works great. I use it to take things off of the DVR to DVD. As long as you can hook the 8MM to your tv you are set.

We had that done for my parents anniversary a few years ago. I think Hunt Drug in Boston did it can't remember

but ya it can be done

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

last christmas i transferred 3 vhs videos to dvd at walgreens, took about a week and a day or so. cost me about 75 bucks.
the reaction was worth it, but i'd definitely look into a vhs/dvd recorder.
