Best Buy

Several best Buy stores have a new look. Gone are the dark interiors and warehouse-like feel. Instead you'll find a more open concept that's brighter and nicer to shop in. Plus it feel much more like you're exploring the store in your own home. The renovation is perhaps most noticeable in the Appliance section.

They offered a few tips and tricks and a whole lot of inspiration!
