I went to Best Buy the other night and I was the only person in the store other than the employees.

On most nights the store is usually packed.

Are local feds turning into Jews in regards to their overall spending habits?

Are people really suffering that bad?

Unable to properly budget their 100k salaries?

Last time I went to Best Buy they had to order my item and have it shipped to me because they didn't have it in the store. Skip the middle man and just order shit online. Unless you have questions and feel that you need to talk to one of their sales people there is no reason to step foot in any store anymore.

$24.99 for a USB cable? WTF. Amazon Prime gets me a cable of similar quality for $6.50 within 2 days. $18.00 more for "instant gratification" isn't my idea of fun.

I have to desperately need something in order to go to BB, otherwise Amazon it is. It seems to be full of minorities, they have not adapted to the whole online thing.

If you buy from Costco, they double your warranty period. You can inspect your TV before you buy it. Plus, their prices are pretty competitive. The OLED screens rock and QLED is coming on strong in a big way.

As noted, BB prices are a joke. I have front office expiernce(not in retail) so I have a good idea what it takes to open the doors and turn on the lights everyday. BB seems to want to cover that cost with just one or two customers. I prefer to use brick and mortar when possible, and when reasonable. It keeps people employed. But there are still places like BB that haven't figured it out.

I used to patron Best Buy quite a bit in the 90s and 00s. These days though, my purchases have been redirected to:

PC Purchases: Microsoft Store
Games: XBox Microsoft Store + Games with Gold
TVs: Target
Appliances: Best Buy has a shot hear but probably Home Depot
Music: YouTube Music
Movies: Amazon
Odds and ends electronics: Amazon
Smartphones: Amazon

Best Buy does havr a first date home installation team for electronics, but that's all I've used them for as of late.

Lol. First rate home installation team.

And car audio. Not a bad place if you are swapping in a new car stereo.
