Circuit City always seemed to be off to me. You'd go in the store and they were never really organized, at least the CDs/DVDs. You could go on Sunday when they first opened and they never had anything in stock from the ad. If you'd actually manage to find something it's impossible to find someone to tend a cash register.
I once went to buy a CD burner that was in the ad, big surprise, they were out of stock. I asked for a raincheck and they required I paid for half of it beforehand. Not to mention the prices online never matched the prices in the Sunday ads. I know they just recently changed that but it's too late. Last year they had some DVD set I wanted in the paper for just under $20. The price online for the same item was just under $40.
