Apparently, Best Buy is the best choice for electronics customers in Augusta. BrandsMart U.S.A., its across-the-street competitor, is selling off its display items and shutting its doors as soon as next week. It was confirmed by a store manager.
The store celebrated its grand opening in October 2023. According to a press release back then, the 40,000-square-foot discount superstore carried thousands of products from brands like Samsung, LG, GE, Whirlpool, and Sony, with an emphasis on having the lowest prices on electronics in the market.
It was the first Georgia location to open since 2006.
The national retailer placed a big emphasis on community service and provided nearly $20,000 in donated money, gift cards, and products to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Augusta and the first 150 customers through their Robert C. Daniel Parkway doors.
