I live in Illinois and have more than 6 Circuit City stores within 20 miles of me. So in checking on my investment, I decided to visit these stores over the past week. My intentions were not to bother any salespeople, but take stock of the Gameznflix inventory.
Niles, IL location has a poor display of 18 packets on the bottom shelf in the video game section.
Elmwood Park, IL looked a little better showcasing 18 packages, 9 each on 2 pegs that were clearly visible. 1 top peg and 1 bottom peg used.
Schaumburg, IL store was a step above Niles, because even though they utilized the bottom shelf for 18 pacages, the shelf was clearly visible in the gift card section.
Elston, IL store could of been an exact replica of the Schaumburg store. 18 pacages on bottom shelf clearly visible. I bought one, why not I am Already Down a great deal.
BUT I WAS REALLY IMPRESSED BY!!
Palatine(Kildeer) Store: I counted 105 software cases. First I only saw 11 hanging on 1 peg easily visible in the gift card section. After looking a little further, 20 feet away, we had our own little wall. 8 pegs were used. 6 had 12 each, 2 had 11 each.
North Avenue, (Chicago Store), only about 2 miles from the Elston ave Store. 59 total cases. Again we had our own space against a wall 8 pegs used. Top 2 6 each, next 2 pegs 5 and 6 each and the bottom 2 pegs had 4 and 5 and 3 and 3 cases.
against a wall.
By a register there were three stacks of 7 cases each.
All I can guess is that there had been more demand in the Chicago and Palatine Areas.
I am going to make my rounds again in a few weeks to see how the inventory is doing. Hopefully we have alot sold.
May venture South to a couple of stores tomorrow. I think there are 30 Circuit City stores in Illinois.
Definitely obsessed with this investment right now. :)
