Never hurts to price compare - even though Amazon quite often is still the cheapest for a lot of things.
My wife tends to buy a lot of stuff through Amazon - I still like my bricks 'n mortar stores even if it means paying a little more simply because I like to see and hold a product (especially electronics), check the build quality, side-by-side compare, talk to a salesperson, etc.
BestBuy in particular often has company reps from Microsoft or Del, Acer, HP or many other manufacturers in their stores you can talk directly to and ask in-depth tech questions and get very knowledgeable answers. To me that's worth more than saving a few bucks through Amazon.
