ADAGEBest Buy Challenges Walmart on Employee Smarts With Increasing Market Share, Electronics Retailer Gets Aggressive on Costs, Messaging

Best Buy is picking up market share, thanks in part to the demise of rival Circuit City. But the electronics giant also has a formidable competitor in Walmart, which has been revamping its electronics departments and stocking more-sophisticated products. Now Best Buy is battling back with a spot that calls out Walmart by name.

In the TV spot titled "True Stories," a Best Buy associate relays a story about a customer who calls with some very specific questions about a TV. Turns out he's calling from a Walmart. Her response: "You're obviously calling us because we're knowledgeable. We've got the price match guarantee, so why don't you come on in?

The visual search site Spezify.com launched Monday, though co-creators Felix Ekenstam and Per Persson describe it as a tool, rather than search engine because the site doesn't index results, but rather taps into information and feeds that have been indexed. Content pulls through application programming interfaces (API) from Amazon.com, Yahoo, eBay, MSN and Twitter.

Nestle USA's Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream, which says it created the Rocky Road flavor in 1929 to "give folks something to smile about despite their financial woes," is back at it 80 years later. To help promote its latest new "Slow Churned" flavor, the brand is running a "Taste of Recovery" essay contest, with a grand prize of $100,000. Entrants were asked to describe why they need the money, and how they would spend it to pursue their dreams.
