Utica has a Best Buy store, but the list of closures has not been released.
Best Buy executives may be giving up on some of their big-box stores, according to a Wall St. Journal report this week. The Minnesota-based electronics chain said it would close 50 Best Buy stores. At this time, however, the list of stores to close isn't known. Utica has a Best Buy store on Utica Park Boulevard. Other Best Buy stores that are nearby include one on Gratiot in Roseville and another in Chesterfield. "I am not satisfied with the pace or degree of change we have made up to this point," Chief Executive Brian Dunn said in a conference call with analysts, adding, "We are evolving our retail store strategy.

Local stores such as ABC Warehouse and Best Buy will keep special deals coming in the hope that customers do the same through the end of the year.
The good news? Black Friday weekend sales showed a $7 billion spike in consumer spending. The bad news? Industry experts say this will likely prove more of a blip on the year's retail radar than proof of a sustained economic upswing. But local stores are keeping the deals flowing and their outlook optimistic. According to the National Retail Federation, a record 226 million shoppers took advantage of the sales at stores and websites during Black Friday weekend–a 6.6 percent increase over 2010's numbers–and judging by the lines seen in Macomb, local customers contributed to these record numbers. “We opened at 8 a.m. (Black Friday) and had a line wrapped around the building,” said Tom Brillati, ABC Warehouse electronics expert. "A lot of …
