There are three issues:
You're not familiar with the layout of the new store.
Which store is larger and has a better selection?
Which store is likely to be busier?
That's a tough choice but I'd lean towards the newer store.
It's a matter of personal preference and you can view last years BF ad items lists here. Depending on what you're looking for, BB has awesome door buster deals but the lines are notoriously LOOOOOOONG.
Let's assume it's $40 on BF which is only $10 cheaper.
Is 8 hours of your time worth saving $10?
Driving to the store, standing in line, waiting in check out for 1 hour and driving back home.
I would buy it now.
It can be, it pays to be prepared: Bring a copy of the competitors ad.Also bring the competing stores locations and phone numbers.Call the stores and see which have the item in stock.Technically the PM will only be approved if the competitor has it IN STOCK.
This depends on a lot of factors such as who is the GC for, your budget, what do they need, what do they want?
How about Sharper Image? They have some pretty cool products for around $50.
I agree with the others these price reductions are a result of "roll back" not BF. Please continue discussion here - http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=51284 Thread closed.
