From the post: "Best Buy permanently closed ten stores this month - and now has 100 fewer shops than before the pandemic.

The ten all shut on March 2 and are in addition to another 24 the retailer shut during its fiscal year ending February 3.

The electronics giant is the latest this year to shut stores - or announce plans to do so. Walmart has shut three in 2024 and will shut another three in weeks. "

Best Buy has been on extended life support for years.

Speaking of life support, I'm so old I can remember when Best Buy put Circuit City out of business - they were on life support in their last years too.

Circuit City was kind of failing yes - but they shot themselves in the foot when they fired all of their experienced staff for wal-mart drones. Up until then, you could go to clueless city and have a reasonably, if not quite knowledgeable person answer your questions about technology.

Yes they did. Circuit City was about a mile from my work and one of my favorites back in the day.
