Not sure of your financial situation, but maybe you can rent your current house (have a close friend be a local land lord) and maybe you can afford to buy / rent in your new area?

That sucks dude.  I just came from compusa.com, and the sales are awesome.

20 to 50% off almost everything...

Its tough loosing your job, good luck in finding something new.  I worked part time at bestbuy when I was in college, and they seemed to pay there managers really well.  Perhaps if there is one of these around you might look there.  Just a thought.. good luck

My favorite Comp USA story was when I needed some blank DVD's.  I looked online and saw they were on sale, so I drove the 5 minutes to the local store and found they didn't have them on sale.  I asked about it and they said that I'd have to order them online and use in store pickup to get the sale price.

I drove home and ordered them online, then drove back and paid the sale price.  It was my last Comp USA purchase.  I did go into one of the local stores when they were closing, but they had marked everything up to the point where the store closing discounts made everything about the same price that you could get them at the local Best Buy or Circuit City - and of course you couldn't take anything back if you had a problem with it.

I applaud anyone who has the opportunity to leave a retail environment or phone support job. Go do something else and never look back. Life will be much better.  :cheers:
