Canadian Gaming Deals and Discussion Thread 3: Pining for the Good Old Days Edition

No idea.
I just did it on Amazon.com with my Mastercard without issue. I had $10 in credit (which I got over the months $1 at a time using the App Trailers app on my iPhone) and paid the other $19.99 with my Canadian MC and a US address. I'm holding onto the code in the hopes that a 12+3 month deal pops up on PSN again within the next few months.
Could it be possible it's because we've made purchases in the past this way? I've taken advantage of .com's Steam deals in the past.
Seems like Ebgames website glitched. The Vita bundles are finally up but they actually slashed the price of the wrong one
Vanilla Vita + free Uncharted was supposed to be 179.99$ but instead it was Walking Dead Bundle + Free Uncharted that was offered for 179.99$. Close to the US Amazon deal. Ordered one, wonder if they will honor it.
EBgames charged my card for it so it appears it will be dispatched after all :O
Now, try Amazon.
Anyone having issues redeeming the PS+ bought from amazon.com on a Canadian PSN account? I was able to purchase it no problem today but when i try to enter the code after hitting "continue" it kicks me out of the store and back to the PS4 home page. I am able to get into the PSN store no problem.

Redeeming is down for everyone, too much traffic! Greatness awaits!
It works on the Amazon digital code purchase because it's billing only your credit card number, not your address. It will not work this way on other sites. However, for this particular purchase, you can use a fake address. I bought two on my credit card using a Delaware address.
Well, right now I'm waiting on the gift certificate I bought myself. Trying that method linked above.
Crossposting this from the buried deals thread.
Me too but I'm done in 5 hrs hahaaa
Just bought a 16gb Lexar class 10 SD card for $10 on futureshop.ca. Not bad. My 8gb 3DS card is full.
So with that and Papers, Please for $5 on Steam, my total today comes to $15 before tax and shipping.
All I bought today was $15 worth of chocolate from Sears. Paid $0.10.

Not jumping on that 360 after all?
Next month, I promise.

Too lazy to drive to Target and deal with the mob >.>
next month, indeed......... maybe....
Why redeem it now? Wouldn't it make sense to wait and redeem it when it will get you bonus months - or do they know if it wasn't sold during those 'bonus month' periods?
Not done with the day yet, actually heading out to TRU in a bit to see if I can grab Wind Waker HD and possibly ZombiU from a FS nearby. So far I've only spent $25 at EB for a used copy of Sukioden DS ($20) and Spongebob: Drawn To Life ($5 - that's right punks, let the jelly flow through you).
Hey, I'm getting off work in a few hours and I'll look for PS3 controllers. If I remember correctly, these were the deals right?
- It's basically $39 everywhere?
- Target has pink controllers on clearance
- Either Wal-Mart or Target has the Ratchet Collection + Controller box for $39?
- Superstore has their tax-free thing today
anything else?

HHmm...I don't know. I've bought things off of Amazon.com but the sellers shipped internationally. Whatever the case, I can't purchase the codes. *kicks can*
Nice catch! This increases my haul to ZOE HD, coffee, and an apple cobbler donut. I'm satisfied.
You missed the Ratchet Collection + DS3 for $35 from Amazon.ca I posted yesterday.
I meant I've bought digital goods that aren't supposed to be available to Canadians before which is why I had no problems at all this time.

you can get bf3 from amazon.com for 30 bucks, and upgrade to ps4 version for 10 on psn
the code from amazon works on a canadian account, no need to create a US one, you also get a $5 voucher as a promo
so $35 for the ps3 and ps4 versions of bf4, pretty solid deal

Was able to redeem my two codes just fine this morning.
Thanks. I've been meaning to play this. I couldn't resist pulling the trigger at that price.

I keep getting 'an error has occurred' trying to redeem my ps+ code. Is redemption shut off right now?

I tried a few times to get the PSN+ cards, but it wasn't meant to be for me I guess

Isn't it 30$ today only if you buy from PSN website ?I tried a few times to get the PSN+ cards, but it wasn't meant to be for me I guess
They clarified today that the $30 price wouldn't be on PSN. Only way to get PS+ for $30 is through a retailer in the US (Amazon.com, GameStop, BestBuy).

Still no PSN for $30 in Canada yet?
The code isn't listed under your game and software library?
Either way, I don't know if redeeming codes on PSN is up yet. It doesn't bother me though because I already have PS+ and I'm in no rush to redeem it.
There won't be, you have to buy them from Amazon.com.

not sure if its a good deal since I had really bad experience with Lexar card. I bought a 32GB class 10 few months ago and it was horribly slow, definitely slower than Sandisk class 4

The Sony rep said there would be a deal for Canada.

Seems increasingly obvious that the Sony rep lied (or was mistaken), unless for some reason everyone's been saving their PS+ deal for Cyber Monday (which seems really unlikely considering Cyber Monday has always been reheated leftovers from Black Friday anyways).
