CompUSA to close 11 of 12 NJ Stores
This is a surprise that they'd close all of them near us. CompUSA was one of my shopping favorites over the years. Back in the Dot Com days, we'd be going every Sunday to the Totowa store (as the Paramus ones were closed on Sundays) to get whatever was free after rebate that week. We even noticed some regular customers in the pre-opening crowd! And the day before Alan was born, Mark and I were there getting DVD's (or was it CD's?) that were free after rebate!
Hopefully there will be bargains to be had during the closing sale!

Date: 2007-03-08 12:24 am (UTC)I've mostly bought computers mail order or from a local build-to-order company, but they've been a good place for parts and accessories.
I checked out one of the closing sale stores, but they didn't have what I was mainly hoping to find, which was a mini-DV camera. We looked around a little more at other stuff, but didn't have a lot of time so we didn't end up getting anything. We'll probably look again soon though, since there's probably something irresistible there.
