We go between Circuit City, Best Buy and Costco out here - no Fry's in our immediate area - we'd have to trek on down to San Diego to find the closest one I think. Less than a city block away from each other in both Palm Desert and La Quinta, I think they are in competition with themselves. Maybe shutting down a few stores, re-grouping and a BK will help. Everyone thought Starbucks was gonna go bye-bye when they started shutting down stores, but it seems to have helped.
Good luck CC!
