I wish the Shopper Drug Mart 3DS XL deal was for any XL. I want to get the Pink XL for a gift.
More XL deals before Christmas please! haha

I got an email notification this morning telling me that it was delivered and was signed for. 20 minutes later though I got another email telling me that no one was home and will try again next business day. I am very confused. No one is answering their phones so I will have to wait till I get home later to see what that is about.

So far have ass cred 4, NFS and killzone for my ps4. Anything else worth picking up right now? I'm not really into basketball or soccer so fifa and nba are out.
They're awful.
I had a package from Amazon delayed for around a week due to a couple "missed" deliveries [saying that no one was home] and because of weather conditions [things weren't even bad]. I didn't even need to sign for it, so even if no one was home [which there was] it wouldn't matter. They could just put it in the mailbox/inside my screen door like they always do.
I hate UPS.

I know!! Since I heard some PS4 stock was coming today I went to BB and waited till they opened then they told me they got their stock yesterday at 11:30, started selling at 12:00, sold out at 2:30 and they had 42 pieces
After they told me that I just gave up on getting any of my relatives a PS4 before Christmas!
Mine doesn't say out for delivery till now so I guess I'll have to wait for next week!

They just sent me that same key they sent me last week for my season pass, nothing from this week giveaway yet! I am happy for you, finally they worked out their things!

Oh yeah, the uPlay promo is running until January 15, 2014 now, so if you are short points, you can still try to earn them over the holidays!
Now I can return this copy of AC4 to Futureshop. lol
I'm kind of shocked that the game is only 4 gigs though... the box says 20 gig install...
Yes! lol

I too finally got my codes. I was going to give my AC4 code to a friend in the UK but the code doesn't work over there, bummer. Might have to find another home for that PS4 code here...
The one I work at carries stuff randomly.
What is the 3DSXL deal? Trying to find the price, but can't find it anywhere.
EDIT: NVM! Found it
Just buy something and then refund the item. You'll get a new gift card.
holy shit this is genius.

When did you redeem your points? Did you have to contact them to get your code? I redeemed my points but didn't get anything yet!

It was from like 2 weeks ago. The codes from this week should get distributed within a week, no worry!

I had no idea there were still gift cards that expire.
Hopefully they worked out the problem and can churn out the keys faster now!

If a Shoppers has a photo department, they likely carry games.
Well the last gift card i had also had an expiry date
http://www.sse.gov.on.ca/mcs/en/Pages/Gift_Cards.aspx
So was this gift card from a "buy X get a $Y gift card" promotion? Apparently those are exempt. Huh, didn't know that.
These are probably promotional "savings cards," I.e.: high value coupons that came with a purchase and are "gift card-like"
Says it's from valid from Dec 6-19, 2013 and I got it cuz I spent over 50. Cashier person dropped it in my bag and I forgot about it. This was about a month ago.
This shit is just bad.
yup that's what it says on my card.
ahhhhh fuck
for some reason the "when you spend $50 or more!" text won't stay in my head so I keep thinking it's like a git card.
I'm in a pickle. The flyers are shit games-wise.
Well it was literally a gift to me so i dont remember :lol
Battlefield is really fun, even with the bugs.
Keeping an eye out for headset sales. The pulse elite is on sale for 120 everywhere, but I'm holding out for 100. I know they're not fully compatible with the ps4 at the moment, but from what I understand they work partially and a system update is on the way. They're my front runner for a pseudo 7.1 headset unless there's a good alternative at the same price point.

They do, unfortunately.
Well that sucks.
Dunno what should i buy OOT 3D, Pokemon x/y or ALBW. I would go physical but 3ds just arrived and i want to play a game on it as soon as possible
The main reason I never buy anything from the eshop.

Just to update, the 4 gigs is for the single player... so I assume that multiplayer is the 16 gigs.
That's cool of them to let you download some part of the game to play first at least, although you have no control over how or when the rest of the game downloads.

Set your location to Alberta.
There's still tax but AB's the lowest.
no problem
Can't search post history from mobile,, but is it okay if I ask which location?
Also do sales start at 24hr locations right at 12am?
Which location is this? I don't think there is one on Robson St?

Oops sorry, meant Davie.
And yes, sales start at 12:01am at SDM (though they say sometimes the system takes more than a few minutes to recognize the new day sale).
The one on Davie is also open 24 hours. That's where I got both my PS3 and 3DSXL.
