Those are some pretty nice deals. Let my friends know.

Damn you, I had those in my cart a week or two back when I first noticed them, and decided 'nah.'
Now I'm tempted all over again. Though if they also had the first Hellboy I'd buy it too.

Easy now, lets be nice.
Lack of deals, or poor quality of deals for that matter, is out of our control. Sometimes it helps to veer off topic for a bit. If someone needs advice, you can bet another will be sure to answer them. The thread isn't just a nexus for the hottest, and sometimes hidden, deals. We're a community and in a community you help your fellow member if you can. Well, that's how I see this thread anyway.
With that said Canuck Deals GAF has seen better days. Maybe I'm being a tad pessimistic but it seems the dollar might be beat to hell for a good while longer before things get better. Get them Optimum Points ready everyone.
DEAL?
Tiger Direct is having a Clearance Sale: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/email/ca/em3773.asp?
GAP has a 40% off sale promo going again. Got me some $7.00 jeans today: http://www.gapcanada.ca/browse/category.do?cid=65179&departmentRedirect=true#department=136
People were asking about TV Deals. Might want to keep an eye on this site too. I hear good things about Visions Canada. There game section is crap though: http://www.visions.ca/Default.aspx

Wow, this seems like a good deal, and the reviews look pretty decent for the price, especially considering it's 4k (!).
http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=8430969&sku=S874-3905
I'm very tempted to buy it... Any reason why I should not?
EDIT: Oh, $31 shipping... Eh...
Thanks for this, i-Jest! Up to 75% off sale stuff + the 40% off stacks ontop of those sale discounts if you use the GAPEXTRA code.
I spent $200; got 4 fall jackets ($20-30 for jackets normally ~$100+!!), solid colour t-shirts, long sleeve button ups, and so on. I love normcore.
Was looking for some cheap stuff to add to my order so I could get free shipping on the Palutena am***o next week. Pitch Black ($4.99) + Field of Dreams ($3.99) are tantalizing. But that would still leave me like 3 cents short of $25.

Canadian Gaming Deals and Discussion Thread 6: Deals Under Siege
I wish I hadn't seen this. I've already spent +2k$ in clothes in the last 2 months. I dropped weight and went from an L/XL to an M size so a lot of my clothes didn't fit anymore but now this is really getting silly. On prime Day I ended up buying nothing on amazon but spent 500$ on labaie.com for clothes I don't even need ...
Now I already have 300$ worth of clothes in my cart and I should to just close the tab and go to sleep ... But I can't. I'm an idiot.
Man, why'd you have to link to the women's section? I'm at work and I was worried someone might see me looking at dresses over my shoulder or something.
Got some stuff though, thanks! I was thinking of buying boxers today but didn't find anything, but I got some of these. Actually if you were just looking to stock up on decent boxers I could see someone going bananas with these at like $7 a pop. Most of them don't look like anything special but then they are underwear after all.
EDIT: Just checked my Amazon account and my Super Mario Maker pre-order has been adjusted down to $69.99. Good show, Amazon.

I only really top up add-on orders (as I'm a sucker with Prime) but I like to pad those with Yupik stuff. Bulk dry food items, mostly.
The deals... they're too good...
Thanks, Amazon! If it wasn't for you, maybe other retailers wouldn't have balked and slashed prices like they seemed to have, in reaction to #PrimeDay!

Kijiji/craigslist. Can probably find it for 40-50
Use one of those Toys R Us promo codes and you too can play Splatoon with Harper.
So true. That's what the customer service lady at labaie told me. It feels like every major online retailer was playing catch up and they ended up having way better deals than Amazon. Go figure ...
Oh well. I ended up spending 267$ for 14 items. Not bad ... The deals are too good to pass up anyways.

I won't buy anything from the Gap or Banana Republic unless it's 50% off since they have 40% off so often
Gap and Banana Republic Factory Stores, my friend. They send me coupons all the time for added % off on top of their promos.
The 40% coupon works for items already on sale so it's definitely worth a look.
Up to 75% off in the sale and then a further 40% off code that applies to the already discounted sale price.
It's legit.

Yea, it seems to happen every few months, good to jump on it every once and a while when it's 50% off the sale price
I like this and the conversion rate one.
Here's the Jul 17 - 23 Weekly Round-up - http://gamedealscanada.com/deals

I've heard too many Seiki crapping out just after warranty stories to want to try that brand.
Yeah Toshiba's seem to be decent. Typically they avoid reflective screens (which some budget brands use), look decent (considering their prices), and don't have that bad of a video lag (there's a slight audio lag on mine over audio via HDMI, but nothing major).
Probably one of the better budget brands.

Quality-wise their fine, but yeah, the designs are quite bland.
thanks!
Your site has become part of my Friday morning ritual when I sit down in the office
Nothing tempting there. I'd bite on Hardline and the FFX remaster if they were 10 bucks cheaper, don't mind waiting both of them out
Don't forget, there's a Sony Flash Sale coming later today

Pffffft... How else do you game?
Planning to get a TV bench to store my consoles, but everything seems to either have no ventilation or not enough space to store an Xbox One. Anyone have any recommendations on a good cheap one?
I found this one here at Ikea, does it look decent?
It doesn't need to look fancy, just needs to store as many consoles as possible.

That's what I use. Mine is three shelves high though. It's good but I kept the back off of it for ventilation purposes and wire control is hell. I want something that is longer and lower to the ground so that wires are harder to see and I can still get ventilation through the back.
I don't see a three shelf version? I'd be way more interested in that, since I could probably fill all of those spaces easily. Is it discontinued by Ikea?
I'm planning to get this one when I get some cash flowing in again; http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/20256801/
Looks to be pretty much the same dimension wise, the back is open too.

The best Gap/BR deals are those where you can stack the signup code with a discount code. They don't come around very often though and the loophole gets closed fairly quickly.
