Who still goes to Best Buy?

Being a part of the demon customer minority, I haven't had the urge to go to their stores or website. Last thing I bought there was HL2 during Christmas. To my benefit, there's a Fry's about 20mins away.
 
yeah ever since Fry's opened in Concord, CA I haven't been to Best Buy in about 6 months. Weird since Fry's in 15 minutes away and Best Buy is 5
 
I don't remember. I go there to buy stuff only to return it unopened the next day or 2 days later.
 
I probably go to Best Buy once every couple months.

I went to one last week to buy a portable cd player for my car and the new garbage album.

before that, I hadn't been in one since before christmas.
 
I don't actively avoid them, but I haven't been there in months. It's not convenient for me, and I don't buy a lot of electronics or DVDs.
 
i just went there today to buy zelda wind waker. they dont have the $5 off $20 coupon anymore. its now $5 off $30 for PS2 games/accessories 🙁
 
my mother in law gave me a $20 gift card for my birthday, so i went there are go a belkin fm transmitter thingy for my mp3 player
 
I was just about to go there but then I remembered there is an EB that is just a little bit farther so I went there instead to buy Guild Wars.
 
i go there for music cds 🙁 i'm not an 'angel' customer but i'm not a complete 'devil' either 🙁 i need to join the dark side.
 
I rarely step foot in Best Buy, CompUSA or Circuit City (no Frys anywhere near here). I buy most of my stuff online. I don't need their absurd b&m pricing.
 
I do. I go in to browse when the wife is shopping at the mall next door. Last time there, I actually picked up a backup XBOX video cable (components) for $10. Exactly what I needed too since I move my XBOX back and forth around here.
 
I only go there if there is a "hot deal" that I can take advantage of. Otherwise, I have no need to get ripped off there.
 
I do only if its a "hot deal", and thats not much.

Last time I went was in March. I hate going though 20 questions just to pay for my purchase.

You know you can get some mags... 4 free issues... Who cares.

Also why in the world do they need your phone number to ring up your order? Its getting bad. I was planning on picking up some of the $9 Disney DVDs this week, but I'm going to go to Sears and get them for $10 or try to price match somewhere.
 
I go in there every few weeks to drool on the Hi-Def LCD TV's and to just generally browse the tech junk. If I really want to buy something, I wait until a deal is posted in Hot Deals and buy it then. Usually I can save like $3 off of a $150 video card with a coupon code, pricematch, and rebate that I get in about 6 months. (sarcasm)

In all honesty, I've bought a lot at Best Buy in the past, but I'm a "wiser" shopper now.
