That's an incredible price. Consider yourself extremely fortunate.

LittleBigPlanet Karting for $29.99 is a crazy price drop/sale.
Its anything on the PS store. Could be Vita games, Soundtracks, PSone games, PS3 Games, PSP games, themes, avatars, whatever. As long as you get to spending $60 on the PS store within the time frame. No, that doesn't mean adding funds to your wallet (because some people wanted to do that) , you have to spend a total of $60 to get the $10.
I forgot who mentioned on CAG that a deal was just around the corner for it when it was launching and people were trying to get it for the 9.99 FS price error.
That guy must have worked higher up at one of the stores. Interesting.
WHAT? fml

Arent memory sticks tied to hardware and the accounts are tied to the sticks? How were you still able to use it?
Format?

Could you guide me to one of the collections that has the offer? I looked at the MGS Collection on FutureShop and it doesn't seem to have the free month of Plus.

wow I am an idiot
The Journey Collector's Edition and the God of War Saga Collection are the only ones.
Otherwise its included with PS3 bundles (new ones).
It's ok me too, I wish I bought mine at eb considering that it's still cheaper than a 16GB one lol.
It's worth it if you want to appreciate the memes that were derived from it.
Anyways, we're getting off topic! Deals. There are so many & yet I have not purchased anything! I was considering the Nintendo 3DS XL + gift card deal but I already have the 3DS XL w/ NSMB2 for $170 deal from a week ago.
I'm curious, are Canadian retail stores getting remotely crowded?
For those who may have missed it, I made a BLACK FRIDAY ROUND UP post. Please enjoy & share.
Has anyone figured out how the deal for 50% off Ubisoft games works at EBGames? None of the prices seem to be in effect.

Guyin front of me at Canada Computers bought last 3 3TB drives for $89 a pop :/
Discounted in cart
I think NCIX is selling 3TB drives for $89 too. Better luck there, perhaps?
Add them to your cart.
Edit: it also seems to work on games under $29.99. I got it to work on the Prince of Persia Trilogy.

I'm running a 9 year old 57" Toshiba TheaterWide rear projection CRT television right now, and I love the thing... It has HDMI 1.0 and only 1080i, but it still provides damned near as nice a picture as anything I've seen in plasma or LED to date, balancing all considerations... AND, it looks great with 480i/p source stuff using it's own built-in up-scaler, so my DVDs (of which I have a great many) still look fantastic...
I think there's a lot to be said for good ol' analog CRT tech - I'm not replacing this system until it dies. Besides, just getting it out of the basement would be an enormous PITA!
The Cineplex store has an okay deal on select DVDs and Blu-rays. Free shipping + 1 free Admit One voucher.
I might get the Lawrence of Arabia blu-ray, $15.99 with an admit one isn't too bad.

Sold out at NCIX, sold out at Memory Express :/
Selection was way better last year, honestly.
Not even sure if I'll bother grabbing that Batman Returns one.
As it turns out, the deal for download-to-own is potentially much better, since those are cheaper than the discs anyway, and instead of an Admit One, you get 1000 Scene points. Points can be redeemed for a free IMAX ticket which are like $18, iirc. With Admit Ones you have to pay the difference.
Not that I have any interest in downloading movies :\

Printers are still a massive scam. I bought an all in one Canon a few weeks back from Staples for $40, as even at that price (regularly $100 I think) it's cheaper than one official black and one colour ink cartridge. I know that new printers only come with half size cartridges, but some cheap recycled ones off amazon until the printer dies, then it's off to another new printer.
Seems incredibly wasteful in terms of resources but oh well.
Still tempted to buy a monochrome all in one laser printer, NCIX always has some heavily discounted.
Lasers are amazing. I love mine, the cheaper ones are louder but doesn't matter that much to me.
If it's an authorised Canadian retailer and they still have stock left.
Do it online, call them? Lol
Ah, it's the Origin store, so probably not.

Do you have to pay for any service with a GPS?
Not that I know of, no. You'd only have to pay for map updates if your maps expire, I think that's it?
Yeah that's an american store so no.

Really tempted to jump on Dragons Dogma at $39.99. I was sort of holding out for a $29.99 price drop but it doesn't seem to be budging.
I'm sure it'll be 29.99 soon enough.
it seems to be getting better every year though, so that's nice.
i was really disappointed with boxing day last year, so i hope it isn't even worse this year. why is amazon.ca getting worse for gaming deals? it used to be decent a couple years ago.
The 3DS XL for sale from futureshop is supposed to come with a $30 gift card. However, if you click the link to get additional information about the promotion it actually says a $50 gift card will be given with in store purchases. I assume this is just a typo, but is futureshop beholden to honoring this?
Just buy it online, the gift card is automatically applied to your order.
There's a gift card? I wonder if I could return the 3DS after I keep the GC lol. I'm too lazy to do that these days though, my local FS has huge lineups for refunds.

I was hoping Tekken Tag Tournament would be $29.99 on Wii U as well, but considering it's fairly new I guess I should've known better.
It looks like it is only the PS3 version? 360 still shows as $60...
Have you tried Tiger direct?. I think all big name stores are selling em for that price today.
My bad, yeah I just noticed that too.
