Best Buy opened its doors on Aquidneck Island in 2008 in a local shopping center that it shares with Home Depot and several cinemas. This location of the large electronics chain features a friendly sales staff that is knowledgeable about their products and will take time with their customers as they make a selection. Since opening in Middletown, Best Buy has been involved in community service, including the American Cancer Society's "Relay For Life." The store has a vast selection of products for the home and office, and offers electronics recycling.
