Circuit City is shutting down

Best Buy has even less competition now. As if it wasn't already bad enough there.

I'm going to Circuit City later today, so hopefully there'll be some deals on stuff (specifically DS games). The one by where I live closes in March, so I'll have to keep checking back to see how low the prices go. Hopefully by that time stuff goes on sale by even more than 30% off.
 
Well, there is GAME....and Gamestation...they're both pretty big chains. In fact, I live in the middle of freakin' nowhere (i.e. West Midlands) and I can get to three different GAME or gamestation shops in just fifteen minutes drive.
 
Woolworths have shut down in the UK, and that's just really sad :( 75 years it had been around, apparently. And Zavvi's in administration, I don't know if they're actually shutting down though.

Heh, the only GAME's or Gamestation's near me are in town so I have to go by bus. Which means I'll never know how long exactly it takes to get there XD
 
Belive it or not, im very sad. I got my first PKMN game from there. FireRed. Circut City. you had great times. But all must end. Goodbye.
 
Rather this than a Congressional meeting about how Circuit City is vital to the American economy, BAILOUT!

But uh I guess it's always bad when stuff closes, since as somebody already mentioned, Best Buy sucks =/

But at least there's no bailout?

I have never been in a Zavvi... Never sen one, actually. They used to be a Virgin store, right? I never noticed them change...
This can only mean bad things. I thought Circuit City was pretty big. I mean, no one really noticed Woolworths unless they were 7, and it was pocket money day. But this is getting progressively worse and worse. There is only one solution - We need to get a cheaper alternative fuel. At these rates, I suggest liquid gold! *badoom chh*

LOL, referring to TARP eh? and the Fed Car bailout?
But I think no bailout... :<
I loved window shopping in Circuit City. I'll miss it. :disappoin
 
And I cashed in on it too~
Got myself a new discounted router! Best Buy has much better deals than Circuit City anyway. Can't handle the competition, this is what happens.

How come I couldn't do that when I lived in the middle of nowhere. It wasn't really nowhere, but it might as well have been. The only store close enough to me to ride my bike to was an ice-cream shop. Which was still good, but......
 
A lot of businesses have shut down near my house, including a Circuit City that was closed about a month ago. I don't recall I ever bought much there... I remember going there to buy some head phones for my iPod and then being surprised at how ridiculously over priced they were. (seriously, wtf?)

Like you have an ice cream shop my nearest neibough lives about a mile away
 
I say good riddance. Every time my family and I shopped there were were treated unfairly and no one ever made an effort to help us so we left every time.
 
I don't think I ever saw a Circit City near where I live now. Just some place that is supposed to have all the stuff Circit City and Best Buy have, just at lower prices.
