What purposes do you use Best Buy/Big Box electronic stores? Do you try items before you buy them in-person or online? Do you shop in-store for products? Are you a purely online shopper? I make an effort to patronize small companies, but when it comes to electronics, I frequently buy reconditioned computers and other items from the Best Buy outlet since my experiences there have been positive. I used to regularly order from Tiger Direct, but unfortunately, it is no longer open for business.

I'm looking at Best Buy and waiting for a good deal to buy one of the largest OLED 4K monitors they have because I don't like smart TVs.

I buy some storage cards if it's a good deal, but I'm still wary that they were returned to Best Buy from an Amazon seller. If it's not on sale, I get sd cards/USB drives directly from the manufacturer if they have an online store.
