In August 1989, Best Buy introduced the now-iconic price tag logo, carrying over the wordmark and color from the previous logo. During this logo's use, Best Buy opened a store in the UK in Thurrock on April 30, 2010, but closed all of its 11 stores on January 14, 2012, due to poor financial results. This logo was still used in Canada until 2019.

On May 9, 2018, Best Buy announced that they would change their logo as "part of a new marketing strategy". The new logo separates the text from the tag, which has been made smaller and shifted to the bottom right.
