I haven't been shopping at Best Buy since they're big Republican donors. Just yesterday I spent a couple hundred bucks at Circuit City (where it took me about 10 minutes to track down someone to answer my questions). If only I'd read your blog first!

We were happy with the service and with the well-informed sales staff. Then we went shopping for a new computer and needed to look at a small stereo for one of the kids. We couldn't get waited on, and when we finally did, the lady was clueless. We went down the road to Best Buy, and I spent over $1600 on a computer and Bose sound system.

Finally found a two handset deal on CircuitCity.com for $19. I was thanking the heavens for this (and thinking it was an information input error, as that same set-up was $79 everywhere else.) As my phone was in death throes, I did their "order online, pick up at the store in 24 minutes" deal. Made the order, got the confirmation from the store that my stuff was waiting for me, and I trekked up the road. Got there and was told, "Oh we called you a couple of minutes ago. You should have stayed at home. We don't actually have that here. You can drive 20 minutes to another location, though." When I insisted on my $24 gift card for the inconvenience, the manager treated me like crapola. But I stood my ground and got my card (and the phone was delivered to me, gratis, thanks to the card.) But now, I figure that $24 came out of the pocket of some "overpaid" clerk. Never again. Never, never.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('11603','Merujo'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('11603','Merujo','I needed a new phone for my apartment, and checked all over creation for something I could afford.

Just kidding.

I don’t think I’ve ever made a single purchase at a Circuit City, so I feel that I’m on the forefront of this boycott. Down with Circuit City!
