Looking to buy some Adobe software but have no idea where to look? That is a common problem for many of us when looking to purchase software. The big box stores very seldom have good pricing on software, mainly because they do not specialize in this area. Their prices are typically over inflated and very close to the manufacturers MSRP, and most do not offer reviews, or price comparisons. They are in the software design business, not in the sales business. They set the MSRP (manufacturers suggested retail price) and have the retailers fight it out. The uneducated consumer ends up paying more, and the educated consumer ends up saving more.
One benefit to most big box stores is that you might get a price protection guarantee, or they might price match, but there are stipulations, and you will likely end up not getting the best price in the long run. Not to mention wasting your time, and gas running from store to store.
