Yup, I was passing by anyway and went in to see what they had. Only bought the 1GB sodimm for $19 AR.

I also have to say the parking lot there is insane. They had these crossing guard girls standing there STOPPING the cars turning in off the street and coming down the driveway. I hope they keep the Sacramento store because I'll go there Black friday over Roseville just because I can get in and out in under an hour.

Also, does this store set the record...........I think they have 66 checkout stands. Unbeleivable. The amusing part is that this place was packed beyond capacity and the CompUSA a half block away is going out of business. Such a dramatic contrast.

I would say that the Canon SD550 for $150 is not too shabby. also 1Gb SD free AR ($10) is a nice round package for a 7.1M camera.

also 2Gb PQI CF free AR ($16)

but most people were buying that 27" Olevia LCD HDTV for $297.

I thought it was closer to Orangevale. Oh well.

Off of Lead Hill, across from Outback Steakhouse (kinda).

btw, they have the Maxtor 500G SATAII drive for $110. (okay, only $10 cheaper).

Yup. A half block south of CompUSA on North Sunrise.

One day ads were for today. New ads for the weekend come out saturday. I know some one that works at the Sacramento store and they are working 12hrs a day all three days.

I am glad to say that everywhere I have lived has had a Fry's next to it. Hell when I moved to Sacramento I made sure there was one close by.
