Non Focus discussion. Pretty much other cars and off topic stuff.

Meh. That's what I've got on my XR4Ti and they're nowhere as good as my old Blizzaks were. The only reason I got them is because it saved me $120. Of course, the Focus might like them a lot better than the XR does.

Yeah, you're not kidding. I went there last night hoping to get a sound card and a 5.25" external enclosure. Everything I looked at was still full price. The stuff they were labelling with the price gun were the same price as the old shelf tag anyway. Not much of a liquidation sale if you ask me.

They are closing all 4 stores in MN, and around 100+ stores nation wide. I think the sales will get better closer to closing date, whenever that is. I tried to get some info from a few emplyee's and and no one seemed to know when closeing date was going to be.

I ended up leaving work early also at 4. Took me exactly an hour to get from EP on 494 to 94 then on to Hudson. Props to the MN snow plow drivers roads were as good as you could ask for. After stopping for a burieto it took me 45min to get from Hudson to my house in East Farmington, about 7-8 miles north of Somerset on hwy 35. And ended up getting stuck in the driveway. But at least I made it.

I heard about comp closing too today. But it sounded like they were consolidating the four stores here into one. Not closing all of them.

Yeah, they're losing 126 of their 237 stores nationwide. All 4 in Minnesota are getting the axe.
