BB has really lost the plot.

Their 'loss prevention' (yellow shirts) people are an obnoxious scare tactic and I resent having to show my receipt when I waited in line 3 steps away from them for the last 20 minutes. Just because they are now trained to say 'hello' doesn't make them any less of a put-off.

Now all the sales gerbils are piping up with "what brings you to BB today?" - A nice, open-ended question that I'm sure sounded good in the marketing meetings but is equally annoying once you hear it 100 times. Do they think I came in to buy a pizza?

I got that the last time I was in Best Buy. To my wife's extreme chagrin, I promptly answered, "I'm looking for that sexy redheaded sales girl with really big hoots!"

Almost lost a kidney for that one...but it was worth it.
