    There's always times that, as much as you tell yourself that you don't want to, you need to head into a big-box store.  Be it price, selection, what-have-you, you have to go and you don't feel particularly nice about it.  If you have to go, at least the Best Buy will make you feel a little bit cleaner about the experience.  The one in Kanata has staff that help with that as well.

    I tend to hit this place if I'm in the neighbourhood.  It being in one of the only Kanata malls in the area, it's an okay place to kill time in the afternoon, looking at DVDs of shows and movies that you may want to add to the collection.  In times when I've needed to find something in particular, the staff were decently knowledgeable about the stuff they housed.

    The computer and TV sections are pretty well stocked and similar to most other Best Buys that are out there.  I guess it boils down to the context by which you go into these places.  I tend to go in relaxed without really needing anything and the staff seem to fit with that.  They're also not on commission, so you don't need to shoo them away with a "Just looking" delivered in such a way to convey that they probably won't be making any cash off of you.
