That's what I thought at first too. Then I read online that other people were having problems with cards they bought in-store on boxing day. Ones ordered online didn't seem to be affected. I tried redeeming them at different hours when PSN wasn't as busy. Even the guy I talked to at Sony said it was odd. The code wasn't redeemable on their website either. Anyways, just a heads up for people who bought their cards from Future Shop, in store, they might not work.
I don't think they email the tracking number, but there should be a "Track This Shipment" button on your order page.
Where did you see it? I can't find it in their flyer.
Do you want a water pik type that will remove any and all plaque? Or just an electric toothbrush? If the latter, you can buy spinbrushes for around $10 and they're amazing if you change the battery often enough!

Sorry meant RCSS
Were you getting a message saying that you could not redeem it on pc or was it saying something different?
There is nothing yet so i guess they haven't shipped it
It says: This Prepaid Card cannot be redeemed on a PC.
That's because Plus cards have to be redeemed on a system. They cannot be redeemed on PC.

All this uncertainty around the PS+ cards from Boxing Day has me worried about the codes I bought from Amazon.com on Black Friday. I was going to wait until a 12+3 promotion, but now I'm wondering if I should at least check one to make sure they're okay...

I was able to pick up New super mario brothers 2 and Luigis dream world today for 28 bucks after pricematching targets flyer at Best buy. I am so glad Target expanded into Canada.
Ah, good to know. Oh well, I'm pretty sure my codes weren't working though, since I tried for like 5 days straight at all hours. I was able to redeem other stuff on PSN during that time.
I remember people having problems with those, but that's because it was during the same time as the PS4 launch in Europe. I think those are fine now. I think the problem with mine was because they had to price adjust in store. The ones purchased online should be ok. At least that's what I got from searching around the internet.
How long did it take them to ship?

Received my The Source PS+ card, woohoo! They sent the confirmation e-mail last night, and in the morning it was already in my mailbox. They were just really slow to send shipping confirmations, I think.

As someone from Newfoundland, no, thanks, I'm good.
I bought two from Amazon.com. I used one a month ago and it worked.
Are there still Microsoft points cards? I haven't seen any boxing week deals on them, and noticed when searching stores like Amazon that I couldn't actually find them easily. I was given a 360 for Christmas and was looking for a way to pick up XBLA games cheaper (given that I'm not buying anything in the promo they're running right now).

Thinking of ordering a Vita memory card and other stuff from Amazon.ca that would total a little over $100 (but would be a small package). Is there any risk of having to pay extra at the door?
get a sonicare, even if it is more than $100, seriously it's the best plaque remover.

How ya gettin on By'? Move on down, bring some Peas Puddin, Salt Meat and Snowballs with ya.
Oh God, the corner with Stump and the other Newfies is over there --->
That's so weird that the card says you can redeem on PC though.

Got all my cards today from thesource
Fucking asshole cashier made a big fuss about not selling me more than two during the day of the sale, so I waltzed in today for him to open up an envelope with five in his face. He wasn't happy about it, but jesus, if you got a fucking problem then don't have the sale.
All my cards worked, and I'm likely good til next gen.
Fort McMurray...but then I'd have to go back to Alberta...we'll see how desperate I am for a job if my current one doesn't pan out.

From what I hear, if you can tolerate the weather and the culture, work in Alberta. The money is great.

Are these the ones you're referring to?
I checked them on Amazon.com and I saw so many bad reviews! I was thinking about getting them then I got worried but now you're kinda making me rethink!
What's with Alberta culture? lol
I moved here two years ago and i find the people very nice and tolerant!
Speaking of pillow, I got mine yesterday. I didn't expect it since I'm expecting it today.
Are you going back to that source ever then?

I rarely go there to begin with; I'll likely order online and have it delivered in the future or go somewhere else. There's a Walmart there, I could've gotten a ton off of Amazon, and I could've been a dick and gotten 2 and then gotten my wife to get 2 and come back later and do the same.
Not like I was hoarding these to resell, I actually used them all and I'm not sure what crawled up his ass and died.

Both of my orders have shipped (BB and FS boxing day sales) and they haven't arrived yet. I'm hoping that they come tomorrow so that I can return a few things from the BB order that shouldn't have been processed.
Went to the BB in Mississauga Heartland to look for MK7 etc and the returns line was wrapped all the way to the end of the store lol.
The Sertapedic pillows came in! so softtttttt
I cashed in 2 of my 4 from amazon with no problems. I also have some from Boxing Day on the way.
Sorry if I missed this earlier (I don't follow this thread as religiously as I should) but just got the Sony Pulse Elite headset for $49.95 at Costco here in Winnipeg, bundled with the AC adaptor. The sticker indicated $88.00 (which I thought was a great deal as it was), but this is phenomenal.
which costco?
Kenaston. About 4 left now, sitting behind a stack of Dual Shock 4s. YMMV, though - it didn't scan at the checkout, but the cashier keyed it in and came up at $49, but the receipt does indicate it's the correct product. Best of luck!

Which AC adapter is that?
And for $49 that's an amazing deal! But you paid $38 for the AC adapter?!!
