Quoted flyer has Disney Universe at $29.99 next week in Best Buy. Have any other stores beaten that price yet? I'm hoping to pick it up for a Christmas present for someone. I usually wait until the last week before Christmas since games drop in price so quickly, but $29 is pretty low so it might be my best bet.

Thanks for the flyer...thinking of Spiderman/Catherine, anybody have an opinion on the prices?
The only place I've seen it is online for 200$ at Gamestop.ca.

Anything you buy now can be returned in early January. I don't really see any risks as long as you keep the receipt/request a gift receipt.

I've been refunded the difference a couple times before, but I'm not sure if Walmart generally does that sort of thing or not.
If you're refused, there's an easy solution. Walk over to the Electronics department, buy the game at the sale price, return said game using original receipt with more expensive price on it.
Absolutely.
Looking like it is going to be an EB Games exclusive bundle. FS has already stated on their twitter that they won't be carrying it.
Same deal as above. If they refuse you, just do what I've mentioned above.
Haha, I made the same mistake. Look in the upper right corner, the default is Ontario. Change that to BC, then select the services you'd like.

Monthly or yearly, your choice.
I actually purchased my DSL modem before signing up to Acanac, so I'm just going to sign up for the DSL service. I don't really need the huge speeds from cable or something.

Can Futureshop PM Toysrus?
FS and BB are supposed to PM any "Authorized" Canadian Retailer on any in stock items at said retailer.
What they do, and what their policy is are two difference things.
You'll either get someone who could care less and will process the PM, or you'll get someone who will be afraid that they'll lose their job if they let you "get away" with a PM and will be worried they'll lose the company money and will make up every excuse to deny your PM.
Always YMMV when PM'ing. But yes, they should PM TRU.

DEAL POST! OMG!
If you own a Mac and haven't played Trine yet (and you should) now's a pretty good time. The game is only $2 on the Mac App store for a limited time.

OH SHIT 25MBPS FOR $36.95 WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME THIS
This is a great deal for an awesome Tomato router.
No decent PS3 deals? Bummer. The gf is trying to buy another PS3 for the household and was frantically trying to find the mythical $150 160GB Costco deal with no success.
The only "sales" are on $300 bundles with Move stuff. I'm trying to hold her back on trading a ton of $8+ games at EB for their $25 TIV deal on a system. Boxing Day is so close, and I just have a feeling she will be able to get one then with some cool stuff.

I meant Robellus and you know it. Do you really think Moblicity has a large enough network for Sony to even consider them?
I'm a happy Wind customer
It's often still worth it because of how much more expensive stuff is on Amazon.ca

That's what I'm seeing too.
It's easy now too because Amazon collects the Taxes in advance and you might even get them back.
Anyone having glitches with their BestBuy reward zone points? I got an e-mail saying I had earned $65, which makes no sense, because last I checked I had around 1000 points, and I was expecting to get 800 each for Super Mario 3D Land, Skyward Sword, and Mario Kart 7, but not yet. Anyway, I logged into my account to try to print off the certificate, and it shows I have a point balance of 94 and the option to reprint certificates? Does this mean someone else is using my account and already printed off these $65 of certificates? I don't get how I got $65 of certificates or how someone else could be using my account. When I check the transaction history it doesn't even make sense how I suddenly wound up with so many points, because the only recent things it shows are three 800 point credits for games, which even if it did credit those to me early, I shouldn't have so many points.
Edit: I just noticed the certificates say they must scan my RZ card, so even if someone else is using my account there's no way they can redeem my certificates without my membership card, right? I just don't want to go all the way to the store and then find out these certificates can't be used.

I think there might be a glitch if you joined the Gamers Club where you get 2x the RZ points for game purchases. I just got an email saying I had another $25 waiting for me and the only thing that was added to my account between last week and today was a 800 point bonus for a pre-order game. Gamers Club may have mistakenly doubled the bonus. It's a happy little mistake in my favour.
To answer your other question, it always says "reprint" when you go to the site. You also don't have to have your card scanned to redeem certificates in-store. If you don't have a card then you can just give them your phone number.
Nope it just means that it calculated the points and awarded you the 65 dollars, I wouldn't worry and just print out the certificates.
I'm hoping that it's true since I have another 800 point bonus coming to me soon.

"High End" HDMI and other audio/video cables, phone, ipod and other accessories and cases, mostly.
Bestbuy has the 160GB model For $200.
I disagree. If it weren't for this forum and the UBB issue exploding earlier this year, I never would have grokked on to Teksavvy. Hooked up with them on Monday and I'm cancelling my Telus internet today - 6 bucks cheaper and...

For further comparison, the lucky few in Vancouver (ie. me) also have the option of Novus.
Yes.
This should be fine.
