Do you find good bargains at going-out-of-business stores?

Last month, on Attack of the Show I heard that Circuit City was going out of business after filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and since i've been there a few times, such as relaxation CDs that cost less than $5 dollars, and getting a Sandisk Sansa M250 MP3 Player 2 Christmases ago, I started to get to know it a bit better. But now that I have enough money in my account, i've decided to find some good deals on tech devices there now that the store is going gray and shutting down like Windows XP. As a techno-nerd, this was my own way of going to a wake and paying my final respects to a store that lasted for 60 years, and I spent a decent amount of my "green bouquet of dollars" on what I wanted to my heart's content without holding back. On February 2, 2009, i've decided to find a good deal on low-cost netbooks for less than $500 that I could have as backup, but they've already ran out of them and had regular notebooks and laptops that were higher. So I decided to use Plan B and browse the store fast to find other good deals there. These devices were what I bought from the completely-malfunctioned-beyond-repair store: -Kensington Notebook Power Adapter ($71.99) -Philips Wireless Phone/Modem Jack System ($41.99) -Nexxtech Ultimate Stereo Headphones ($7.99) -FloorPlan 3D Version 8 ($3.99) -Toshiba 250GB Portable External Hard Drive ($87.99) -Rayovac Hybrid AAA Ready-to-Use Rechargeable Batteries ($10.37) -Monster Power Outlets to Go 3 Travel Outlet ($5.57) This wasn't the only time I shopped at dying stores for good deals. I even did it at Winn-Dixie once and got a copy of Laptop Magazine there, but that's all I got as far as I can remember. Have you or anyone else you've known ever gotten any good deals and bargains at dying, going-out-of-business stores before, and if so, what are your experiences?
