No good deals at my CompUSA either. They have people standing around the area with signs that say 30% off in big bold print and "up to" next to it in little print to make it look like everything is 30% off.
I agree that CC is not too far behind. I think they screwed themselves by firing their top paid sales people. I've heard that they are the ones that brought in the big $$$ sales. They lost customers like me because they did that.
They also lost sales with their CC rebates. Instead of giving instant off savings and manufacturer MIR on computer related items they chose to have a CC paid MIR taking a big chunk of the instant. Only recently have they started the no MIR on some sale items similar to BB. Too little too late.
I've also experienced the one checkout open with more than a few customers waiting. What makes it even more frustrating is that they have a bunch of employees standing around doing nothing when that happens.
Of course, when CC goes out of business that leaves fewer retailers which will cause prices to increase because of less competition. At least the office supply stores have provided some competition. Maybe Frys will move into my area and take over one of the vacated stores.
