Check out CompUSA’s liquidation before it’s too late

In case you haven’t read about it earlier, CompUSA is going out of business. I never frequented that store before because their prices were terrible, but I was in the area and figured it would be worth a look to see if any bargains could be had in their liquidation sale. My local store looked like it had been picked clean by vultures, but there were still a few useful items to be found. I was able to snag a XBox 360 wireless gaming receiver and controller for 30% off ($41). I have the XBox and could use an extra controller, but the fun part of this purchase was the USB dongle which allows you to use your XBox 360 wireless controllers on your PC. The XBox 360 controllers are very well designed and seem to run forever on a pair of AA batteries. It was very satisfying to run my game emulators with some decent controls.

I also found some cheap mice, keyboards and printer paper there, so it’s worth a look before they close for good next week.

Here’s a link to the product I got:Amazon Product Link

Update: I visited their West Palm Beach store and it was a complete waste of time.  Their prices are still terrible, but in that store, they add insult to injury by charging high prices for broken, open-box, junk.  Rest in peace, we won’t miss you.
