It depends on what you're shopping for. Best buy has a ton of electronics/appliances, while a lot of [super] walmarts have groceries and little stuff (cosmetics, health care, pharmacies.. etc) that you can't get at Best Buy. For that reason, I chose walmart, because it's the only one of the two that I have in my town for one reason, and for the fact that walmart usually has lower prices.

Wal-Mart. I agree with their politics and policies so I support them. Best Buy used to be my favorite store but now they simply annoy me with their commercials and their Geek Squad. Wal-Mart might actually have some things for pretty cheap. Best Buy is almost never the lowest price and you can find it cheaper online.

+1. Best Buy and their "BUY OUR PRODUCT SERVICE PLAN" really grates on my nerves; that and their relentless salespeople.

Funny, I just blogged about this today...

Best Buy has better stuff and much more than Wal-Mart, but where I go Best Buy & Wal-Mart are almost next door to eachother, so I can shop for better price.

But I also have friend who works at BB and I get him to make the purchases.

I am tired so i won't really get into it, but Wal-Mart is destroying america in a way no other company can. Even though we all shop there we shouldn't.

I look forward to your post when you aren't tired. Best Buy isn't exactly immune from many of the same complaints.

Wow, you agree with Wal Mart's politics? Is your last name Walton? Take a look at the documentary "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price."

I'm quite curious about this, so I'll check this out.

Hmm, I prefer Best Buys because they usually have the electronic stuff I need, and I get good discount there because I know some people :p

Walmart if I want to go grocery shopping and other stuff.

Actually Best Buy sees wal-mart as their main competitor. They are not even worried about circuit city.

Both companies (Best Buy and Walmart) are both going at each other hard. Walmart is adding more electronics and even announced BB is their main target. Best Buy is working to mold their stores to customer centricity in a move to be known for the place where you don't only find the product, but everything you need with it including the service.

Regardless if I work at Best Buy or not, I have always disagreed with how Walmart operates and, therefore, refuse to shop there. Not to mention there are none in NYC.
