While I doubt that Fry's would have something quite that hot, it's a
decent place to shop as long as you don't need help and you keep on the
lookout for those little "refurbish" stickers that seem to magically
appear on everything. Rules 1 and 2 are: 1) "Don't trust Fry's
'refurbish' marked items" and 2) See Rule #1.

FYI, there's also a Fry's on 31st ave and Thunderbird (west of I-17)
that's cleaner and not quite spread to hell and gone. You walk in, and
the right half of the store is computer related. ;-)   Look for the
Aztec Temple motif.
