Best Buy Co. Inc. is permanently closing its Shakopee store and temporarily closing its Blaine store in March. Both locations are slated to close March 4, but the Blaine store within Northtown Mall will reopen this summer as an outlet store, a Best Buy spokesperson said Wednesday, adding that no other local closures are planned at this time. Shakopee customers frequently shop at Best Buy's nearby locations in Burnsville and Eden Prairie, which offers a broader selection of products and more premium in-store experiences compared to the Shakopee store, the retailer said.
