Best Buy

So when did Best Buy become a car dealership? Can someone please tell me this? I walk into Best Buy for the second time in a week and for the second time I am overly harassed by employees to the point where I do not want to be there. I remember when we used to go to Best Buy, the guys and I, when there was nothing to do. We would waste time there, browsing through everything, playing video games as we please and not being bothered by anyone. That's not the case anymore apparently. I cant even look through cd's without someone coming up and asking if I need help with anything. Then as soon as he walks away another guy comes up and asks if I need help. When I say "no" he says "ok well let anyone of us know if you need any help, and fyi we have a great sale on our 42" Sony Bravia LCD right now." Yes he did actually say "FYI". Who the fuck does this guy think he is, I'm looking at cd's and he starts trying to pitch me on a tv...now a sound system or a cd player I can understand...but a tv?

I decide to leave the cd's and look at dvd's when I'm quickly informed that if I purchase Spider man 3, I can get my choice of 1 of 20 dvd's for only $5 more. 2 minutes later, the first person who asked if I needed help came back and asked if "I was still doing alright". In the 20minutes I was in there 9 people came up to me, 1 twice. I hate to say it but I think Best Buy may be losing my business, I only expect to be jumped at like that when I'm buying a car, and theres no cars at Best Buy. After all was said and done I walked out of there with somewhat cold Fanta Orange soda and a brand new cd "Masters of Acoustic Guitar", wish I would have saved the soda, then I could have enjoyed them both together. oh well
