look for fire sales on Friday is what I read -- nm - Remlik Jul 18, 15:15 11
- So what? Their 30 dollar book overpriced book you didn't buy will then become the 15 dollar overpriced book you still aren't buying elsewhere? -- nm - Qale Jul 18, 15:24 6
  - yeah. Though I did clean up on blu rays ($4 watchmen directors cut and cranford set!) -- nm - Remlik Jul 18, 15:25 5
    - you still paid $4 for Watchmen -- nm - moles Jul 18, 15:26 4
      - I liked it (and paid $5) -- nm - Beaker Jul 18, 15:48

        (And I liked it, too. But I can still knock it for its flaws :) ) -- nm - Beryllium Jul 18, 15:56
- if they hire a liquidiation service like Circuit City did, I wouldn't bother. -- nm - loosilu Jul 18, 15:16 3
  - Yeah, most liquidations are in the same vein. Crap. -- nm - Mop (197 lbs) Jul 18, 15:25 1
    - eh, it depends. We had a grocery chain close all of their MD stores - although the deals weren't great at first, they ended up being up to 80% off. - kelly Jul 18, 15:27
  - I doubt they will. the borders that went down a few months ago here had staggered discounting. -- nm - Remlik Jul 18, 15:19
