Options--part 2

Options—part two...

I try to buy local when I can. We used to have a bunch of places in the neighborhood to consider electronic items especially computer. We had a Compusa, Electronic Universe, Staples and even a Office Max but they are all gone, fallen victims to the recession. Really the only place in Murray left is Best buy, giant electronic retailer down on State Street. Best Buy seems to have weathered the Recession fairly well and should be in Murray in years to come, the best part is the store sits right on State State easily accessible by public transit and a bus was coming down the street and I figured the bus arriving when it did was a sign I should check out Best Buy.

I love the smell of a huge electronic store something like plastic and electricity its wonderful. I rolled in like I owned the joint, ignoring the token “greeter” who yelled at me as I entered but I left him holding the Best Buy specials like yesterday's news. I wondered round the place, checking out the videos, flat screens and camera bar and eventually I found where most of the tablets were stocked. It was only then I let a Best Buy sales shark approach and engage—luckily for me she was not from that department or just did not know or what to answer my the specific questions. She called someone over “Computers”: Dakota

Actually Dakota actually turned out to be a good little sales rep. I just had a difficult time warming up to a sales rep named after a truck or US state. Dakota was slightly over weight a bit disheveled giving the lad “floor cred”. I looked at the HP, Acer, Toshiba, Samsung and another I cannot recall right now. I finally chose the Toshiba Thrive, I got the whole package, year back up, buy back option, screencover and my own personal wifi center called a Hot spot” I need to check into this a little bit more after some information I have been reading this morning. I dashed Dakota's spirits when I told him I was working with my credit union which has a special lending plan for State employees and I would have to get an Invoice written up and submitted to the Credit Union who will pay directly to Best Buy. It took a bit for Dakota to wrap his mind a round this concept so he brought in the “big guy”. The concept also challenged the Big Guy but he figured there was a sale in there somewhere like a shark smelling blood, the Big Guy “bit” figuring out he would sort out the details after sale had been made some timeafter closing—it was this killer instinct which got “Big Guy to be the Store manager.

I m in not hurry—will maybe just a little—to take position of my new tablet. I can wait for the system to run its course. I am well connected with my Toshiba lap top at home and work...is work. I have major meeting to prepare on Tuesday but after the meeting I am looking at another holiday weekend and being off work on Monday, a log weekend. Yes, with my new Tablet.
