You man not be able to examine the merchandise the next time. Just how hard it
has gotten to go into a store and see a product before you buy it really hit
home this last weekend. My wife and I were trying to look at laptops, the only
place left in the area to really see anything seems to be Best Buy. I found
myself really wishing CompUSA was still around. We didn’t bother to even
consider going down to Fry’s, as a year ago, they were nothing but aisles of
empty shelves.
