Here in Texas, we have a grocery store chain based out of Central Texas, H-E-B, that has what are known as “Plus” Stores.
These are larger than normal grocery stores that carry other household goods that don’t fall into what yo would normally buy at a traditional grocery store in the US.
Low and behold this morning, when I opened my Sunday paper, right there on the front page of the H-E-B Plus ad, they had a bright pink 7″ Asus Eee PC 2G being advertised for $299.99
Specifications:
– Black, Pink, White
– 2GB SSD
– Linux
It will definitely be interesting to see how this turns out – netbooks are turning up in (in the US) in mainstream electronics retailers, and now in larger grocery stores.
The ad is below:
