They are a large, well-stocked store. They are a good source for music, electronics, media, computers and peripherals and supplies. I've bought most of those items there at one time or anothe, most recently an external CDRW deck, with CDR media.
The traffic pattern in that particular mall is not great, hovever parking is usually available.
This is among the better Best Buy stores.

We have bought several items from them over the years, most recently being a replacement General Electric in-sink disposall.
They have an excellent online store and I was able to locte the unit I wanted and check stock. I finished the order by calling in and scheduling a delivery date.
Their showroom is also extensive. I bought a TV a few years ago after looking at the ones on display.
They are an excellent vendor - well worth using if you liv in the Chicago area.

The Custer Street Arts Fair is one of the best street fairs in the Chicago area, typically held on the third weekend of June, which includes Father's Day on Sunday.
Lots of great food and arts and crafts to purchase, including great tie-dye clothing and lots, lots more. Plus, there's super entertainment on two main statges and a children's stage.
My own band has performed there for several years. In fact, my picture was taken on the Custer stage. We'll have a one-hour set at 1pm on Sunday, June 18, on the main stage at Custer and Main Streets in Evansrton. I hope to see you there!

Direct TV has been our entertainment choice for years. We have the Total Choice programming package which has it all:
Local programming
Soapnet/Lifetime/etc for my wife
Fox Sports net nationwide for me, plus all the ESPN channels AND the Big Ten channel
Plus all the major cable channels like Showtime, Max, HBO, CNN, etc.
We're paying a little more than $100 a month and it's well worth it.
I could recommend their package to anybody (with a view of the Southern sky).

Fender 1270P - a nice powered monitor speaker

I've used these as stand alone speakers for smaller gigs and monitor speakers for larger crowds for years. They are powerful enough so that two of them provide enough sound for a crowd of around 100.
The fidelity on these speakers is great for speakers in their price range (a little more that $200).
Since these are powered speakers, you don't need a powered mixer or amplifier to run them. Instead, a quality mixer works great.
These speakers are well worth the money.

I had my auto repaired there upon recommendation of the Nissan dealer, after I was struck in a parking lot. I was fortunate that the other party stayed around and had insurance from a reputable company.
Body Werks worked with the other party's insurance company, did great work and finished the car on time.
Their owner, Larry, was accessible and very easy to work with.
I recommend them highly.

When my car was damaged while parked ina grocery store lot, I needed a quality body shop to repair it.
Fortunately enough, the other party was insured by hartford.
I went to Body Werks as it was recommended by the Nissan dealer. The shop did quality work, provided an estimate which the insurance company paid in full, arranged for a car rental covered by the insurer, and had the car ready when promised.
They did a super job and I can recommend them highly.

Including waiting in line from 4 in the morning for a PS2 for my son when it first came out.
They have a large, well stocked store and are great for games, computer peripherals and supplies, home electronics, music, and a whole lot more.
The store has plenty of helpful staff and the checkout lines are usually short.

It's been great
I'm coming up on 5 years with my 2002 Nissan Altima and it has performed well. Handling is nice as is pickup - remarkable, since I got the four cylinder engine, instead of the 6.

I'm coming up on 5 years with my 2002 Nissan Altima and it has performed well. Handling is nice as is pickup - remarkable, since I got the four cylinder engine, instead of the 6.
It has been great on repairs as well.
Our last 3 cars have been Nissans because of price and dependability. There is no reason for the streak to stop, although our current cars work so well that there is no need to replace them in the foreseeable future.

I was in there on a recent Saturday afternoon, looking for a long john for my wife. They had none. it wasn't clear whether they no longer had them or whether they were sold out.
I ended up getting a cute frosted cookie, but, at $2.00, it was much too expensive.
They were better years ago.
