Microcenter Grand Opening Specials -- Detroit Area

[Murse]

A new Microcenter is opening in Madison Heights MI (near Oakland Mall) and they have several GO specials this weekend. There is a full-page ad in the Detroit Free Press today. Pricess good today through Sunday.

A couple examples:

USR Wirelass LAN card: $39.99 after $30 MIR and $30 instant savings
52x CD-ROM: $9.99
There are many more, you can pick up an ad in the store.

I stopped in there on the day they opened (Tuesday) and the store was very nice: nice displays and very organized. Everyone was very friendly. Maybe someone with a store in their area can comment on their customer service. Anything will be better than the CrapUSA that is down the street. The store is a mess and the workers are surly. Unfortunately, CrapUSA has had this market mostly to themselve for quite a while. I hope Microcenter kicks their a**!

argh, too far away for me, why drive 40 miles to save $20, hope they toss a couple stores out to the west side

Bump for the best Computer store ever! (we have 2 here in Columbus)

Hmmmmm, I guess I'll go check it out then. That USR Wireless LAN card sounds good, but it isn't 802.11b, is it?

It's about time someone kicks around ConUSA. So, all we need now is a Fry's.

Very nice. I was wondering when that place would open up. I'll stop by after work today. Any good reviews on the 19" KDS X flat screen? Thanks for the heads-up.

Maybe I'll go by the Madison Heights store tomorrow. Heard on the radio that the Madison Heights Police were called in for crowd control at the new Microcenter Grand Opening! Lol. I hope the two Crapusa's down the street (that's right, there are two of them within a mile of each other!) are shaking in their boots.
