I'm still mad they moved seasonal stuff to the center when it used to be near the back corner (slrpnk.net)

I have a few stores locally that shuffle around yearly, in small obnoxious ways.. drives me nuts, and I try to avoid them.

And I won’t even set foot in Best Buy anymore. With their new “tech lounge” redesign, they made it so there’s stuff everywhere, but not where you expect it to be, and not in logical places, so you basically have to ask someone. The employees also think it’s intensely stupid, but corporate wants you asking for help so someone can upsell you on crap you don’t want or need that they don’t know anything about anyway. No, random high schooler, I don’t need your advice on computer components.. You don’t even know what I’m doing with the computer, and I can guarantee I know more about it than you do, since I know that bleeding-edge graphics card you keep trying to sell me on isn’t even compatible with my ancient hardware.. Just show me where to find the bottom-tier card I’m asking for and stfu. (Based on a true story)

It doesn’t make me impulse buy anything, it made me frustrated and angry.
