STAPLES CLOSES IN WHITE FLINT (PHOTOS)

Staples has closed its White Flint location at 11503 Rockville Pike. The shopping center's other tenant, Casual Male XL, remains open - for now. Saul Centers, Inc., owner of the retail center, plans to demolish the building for a mixed-use development. A sign is directing customers to the Staples at 1531 Rockville Pike. The building itself actually looks new and modern; it would have been a good space to put an upscale restaurant, or large retailer. Oh, well.

Casual Male XL is still open

CAN YOU BUY A GOOGLE NEXUS 7 IN DOWNTOWN BETHESDA? YES!

The highly-coveted Google Nexus 7 tablet can be hard to find.  Especially in downtown Bethesda.  It's not at the Verizon store.  It's definitely not at the Apple Store!  Not even at Best Buy.

Would you believe I found one at Staples on Wisconsin Avenue?

Not exactly the first place you'd think to look.

But sure enough, there it is:

The only two problems are, this one was not getting any electricity and wouldn't turn on.  And, second, Staples can't seem to stock enough to satisfy demand.  So you'll be lucky if there's one there.
