I have made a significant change in my life in recent weeks. I don’t know if it’s for the better, but there’s no turning back now.
I have ended my boycott of Best Buy.
A little less than a year ago, I vowed to never go back there again. I got pretty crappy service their while trying to buy a new television and just figured I could get away with avoiding them altogether.
Then they went and opened one a half-mile from my office. And they put a Chik-Fil-A in the same shopping center. And they are building a Qdoba there.
That’s no fair. I couldn’t in good conscience drive past Best Buy on the way to another place when I needed to buy NCAA08 a few weeks ago. Especially since I wanted Chik-Fil-A for lunch the same day. And I couldn’t avoid going there today when I needed to buy my daughter a CD for her birthday and, again, wanted Chik-Fil-A for lunch. Things will get even worse when they open the Qdoba.
I still won’t go there to buy a big item, but I figure I can bend my principles for video games, CDs and DVDs. That’s where I draw the line. Unless I need to change my mind.
They know how to seduce you back again, perhaps thay did all that just for you?
