Hi all, Best Buy Drone #1450694 here. It seems there's going to be some fairly significant changes to Best Buy's DVD floorplan, in order to give more space and attention to high-margin TV on DVD sets. I haven't seen the actual floorplans yet, just an overview of the changes that are going to take place over the month of April:
- $5.99 Value DVD section is gone. $5.99 titles will either be remerchandised according to their genre, or not carried any longer, depending on their popularity.
- Next to the New Release section, there will be three new sections for Fox, HBO, and Comedy Central TV on DVD.
- There will no longer be any TV Comedy, TV Action/Drama, or TV Sci-Fi sections. All TV shows not by Fox, HBO, or Comedy Central will be in a generic "Television" category.
- There will be a "Musicals" category again.
That's the major stuff. Not all Best Buys have the same exact floorplan, so your mileage may vary. Look forward to being confused and/or angry with the new layout, 'cause those are the two emotions Best Buy prefers their customers to be in!
