I find it funny when people claim a store is overpriced in comparison to a website online.. well yeah no fucking shit. The overhead involved with running a store, especially the size that bestbuy, circuitcity, and futureshop run at require that increase in cost. What you get in return is the ability to purchase the item and walk away with it instantly, and have less trouble ( in comparison to online stores ) in returning the item. Also the idea of being able to talk with an employee (even though most don't know what they are talking about)
*edit*
not to mention some websites may only require a handful of people to run, where as a store creates a lot more jobs...
Sometimes getting something a certain way to save 10$ or 20$ doesn't benefit the economy in the long run.
