    I can't imagine they'll have more than a few of each for store opening. Seems a shame if there is considering there was a full page advert in the sun today saying something about currys never having any stock of their special offers. I hope I'm proved wrong though
  • Well I'm thinking about getting there for the 7am opening tomorrow so I will let you know

    I went in the one in north Orlando last year, it was just 'meh', none of the stuff seemed particularly cheap compared with other places.

    I can't see it being any different to Comet really, same stock + same prices.
    Out on blue six..
    It's Chips and Jackets, Peas and Trousers.

    Best Buy is a very well known US / Canada electronic chain store and I would imagine they'd have quite a lot in stock for the grand opening! Their website won't load for me so not sure if there's one opening nearby :/ I live in West Yorkshire, any idea?

    Thanks! :)

    Their website is crashed now! they should have considered this when advertising in such massive scale :)
  • has anyone been there yet? or are you still stuck queuing? I work about 10 minutes away from the thurrock store but can't go at the moment! is it worth a look? :)

    Got there around 9, took 15mins to get into the store and then around 30 mins to queue up for the Toshiba tv. You can look round the store when you get in or they have seperate queues for the 3 or 4 main offers.
