No, not really the same, though they do carry some of the same products.

I find HH Gregg's staff to be more knowledgeable about their products and they don't carry all the media Best Buy does (Music, Movies, computer games etc etc)...it's more a targeted store them Best Buy that tries to be everything.

A lot of people can still go, it doesn't mean they are spending as much as they used to.

Or they may be buying even more, as the deals are better. Income for the stores may be lower due to lower pricing, but volume may be the same or higher. We don't know the "local" numbers.

Couldn't say, I've never been in a Tweeter. I do think the one in the area recently closed though.
