I have a whole week off from school right now, and want to put the time to good use instead of moping around with nothing to do. I'm going to be mapping everyone's cough favorite electronics store, Best Buy.
The trouble is, I don't remember the interior of a Best Buy well enough. Last time I visited a BB was in early September. I'll have to make loads of textures for the signs that hang everywhere, and perhaps a few models (shudder finally a reason to learn to model, hmm?).
This may seem a bit far-fetched, but if anybody is near or in a Best Buy, could you perhaps take a few shots of the store interior. Mainly the front counters, the front doors, customer service, the signs, and a general picture of where everything is positioned in the store. I'd try to do it myself, but I'm in upstate New York for the vacation. There's not a Best Buy here within 60 miles from where I am. I'll give you credit in the map once I'm (hopefully) done with it.
For those of you wondering, I have started the map (yesterday, in fact). Mainly the front of the exterior. I'd post a screenshot, but it's so early in the project that I'd rather not show it unless someone specifically asks for it.

Yeah, I've already seen those pictures. I did a google image search before I started mapping... I only found that one interior picture, and many exterior. I searched for blue prints of a store similar to Best Buy - no luck.
I know the general overview of where everything is in my store, but I would just like to get a sense of how the architecture looks. The checkout line, the doors, signs, display cases, etc. I don't have a camera readily available to take these pictures.
I'm not lazy.
