Hey... I'm going on vacation next week to San Diego. I want to go check out a Fry's Electronics store while I'm there. I hear about all the kick ass deals everyone gets at Fry's in the SoCal area from the "Hot Deals" forum. I just wanted to see what I've been missing out on all this time. Unfortunately, I'm from Indiana... so my only options for B&M stores are Best Buy and CompUSA.

So help me out here.


Oh... one other thing... I'm open to any other suggestions on places I should visit. Thanks!!!

depending on how far you're willing to drive, anaheim is probably a little farther, but much better than the fountain valley store

What's so great about the anaheim store? I've never been since I live right by the FV one.

another vote for teh City Of Industry Fry's.....
well worth the drive.. supposed to be the largest of teh fry's.. after that I would say burbank or woodland hills or anahiem are worth looking at.

the usual disney land, magic mtn, universal studios, san deigo would animal park (night time safari is good), sea world, Peterson automotive etc etc..

Since your goign to be in SD go to TJ (down south accross the border) for some hot fun with some under 21 women.. mmmmm

TJ is party and liquor town.. but be careful US INS will catch you if your drunk on the way back.. and under 21.

Lemme make sure I read this right.

You are going to vacation in San Diego, one of the most beautiful cities in the world, and you are including Fry's on your itinerary? You are sicker than I am. ;)

personally, it wouldn't be worth it to drive to fry's in LA or orange county from san diego just to see it. it really isn't that special. most of the hardware has a white sticker saying that it's been opened but they'll still honor the warranty. then if you're in indiana and need to use that warranty, you're SOL. my suggestion, save your time, don't drive to fry's just to see it unless it's in san diego and closeby. mwave is even less special than fry's. they have this room/office where you pick up your stuff after driving two hours in rush hour traffic to get it. the backroom looked like it was a regular warehouse.

If you are here just to check out cheap prices on computer hardware, skip Fry's altogether and go to the computer show in Pomona. There happen to be one the week you're here (October 5 & 6). You'll find a lot better deal there than Fry's in most cases. And there are always room for bargaining too.. cuz the prices they display are NOT set in stone. Usually memory modules are being sold really cheap there, and they are not the generic crap Fry's are selling either. Go here for schedule and direction. The Pomona one is the biggest show out of all of them.

Usually the admission prices negate the savings you get. The usual generic crap is there too. And returning stuff is a PITA.

Anyhow, go to this frys:

SAN DIEGO
9825 Stonecrest Boulevard
(858) 514-4500
FAX (858) 514-4518

I haven't been there myself, but its not worth driving 2 hours just to see a "factory themed store" or "hollywood" themed store...

And most of the time, frys deals are not generic (except for RAM and some vid cards)
