Yesterday I visited a Circuit City store in the Green Acres mall in Valley Stream, NY. I saw the big signs that said 10 to 30% off. I was disappointing when I went into the store, televisions, receivers and most other big ticket items were only 10% off, the 30% was on cables and accessories. And on top of that, the discount was on the MSRP, prices where cheaper at Costco, Best Buy and some reputable internet dealer such as Onecall and Crutchfield.

I never really liked Circuit City. I thought the stores were kind of dingy and the layouts were a mess. Best Buy stores just seemed to be brighter. Maybe it is better lighting or the fact that the Best Buy colors are brighter.
