Nothing really good deal wise to post, sorry.
Just wanted to say that the Zephyrhills Kmart is about a gold mine with the gaming deals. They don't advertise them that well (the circular
is available at the electronics desk though, under the glass, but they only have about half the stickers up), but everything works. They probably had 20 copies of Kirby's Epic Yarn and another 20 Fallout:NV in the cases. Not to mention those Sesame Street and Zhu Zhu games. They probably had 20 each of those too.
The place was in disarray though. According to Charlene, the cashier, they were backed up because a lot of their employees were sick and one just died. The manager was putting out the deliveries from last MONDAY while I was there Friday morning, because the Friday truck (according to Charlene, it was a 1200 piece delivery) couldn't be emptied until the Mon/Wed deliveries were moved. Even through what sounded like a rough week, Charlene was damn cheerful and almost seemed.... happy... to help me get something from the case and ring me up. When my SYWR card wouldn't scan (I only had the keychain one) I just told her I could enter the receipt online if it wouldn't work but she tried like 50 times and even said if I wanted she could key in the card manually- how often does that happen? Good customer service... from
KMART. That's a sign of the apocalypse.
In the end everything worked out but good lord did it look like someone let off a bomb in that store. It was nearly impossible to get to the games cases (which stupidly aren't in the electronics section... nah, they're on the next aisle with the little girls' toys).
I honestly have to say that Kmart still being open surprises me. Friday was the busiest I've ever seen it- and I saw one other person in electronics and maybe a dozen people total.
