Best Buy

Sometimes reaching someone on the phone is real tough. But today on Black Friday they had plenty of people working which was nice.
SPECIAL OFFER
by charley1943 at Citysearch
Don't buy extended warranty special on computers. We were assured the $300 extended warranty special included free internet installation and service for several months. We had three weeks of bad internet service and are being harrassed by Microsoft for over $500 and we're still out the $300. The salesman apparently didn't get the facts right.
this place has everything

Best Buy has everything you need for today's digital lifestyle. from music, movies, electronics, TV's, DVD players, laptops, PC's etc..you name it and they probably carry it. also their prices aren't bad.
they always have specials on new releases for both music and DVD movies. I recently bought the new Red Hot Chili Peppers cd for $12 bucks when it was offered for $15-17 bucks elsewhere. good deal.
- Pros: wide selection, music and DVDs, decent prices
