    Firewall question (get around firewalls at work)

    Firewall question (get around firewalls at work)

    Hot - CompUSA B&M book closeout - Lots of book/book sets originally as much as $200.00 now 88 cents

    Went to 3 CompUSA's today in Atlanta. The first two didn't have much to begin with, but had mostly been cleaned out. Got to the third one just in time. They were clearing the shelves of the items so they could be thrown away! I told them I would buy them, as I heard they were scanning for a...
