nono, futureshop might announce publically a few days before.

nothing illegal

[maddawg]

This just sucks....americans posted BF deals weeks before anything is annouced. Why are they so worried.

[akito925]

we all should know it would be released by thursday or friday.. problly!

I wonder what the deals would be like this year..

compaire it to last years..

the only thing I'd picked up was dvd media.

saw they were stocking up benq media at my local futureshop.. same purple 100's spindle.. but they were all "16x" media anyone know the media code to it as of yet??

There is no conceivable way that preboxing day info is illegal, like they are sugguesting

Its only banned to maintain redflags advertising agreements.

rfd has gone too corp.


Hopefully a substitute will arrive shortly... and consumer power will return

Then that site will get sued

The legal system is very different in Canada. Even if we 'won' a trial, the legal fees would be the end of the site. FatWallet fought, but FW also brings in several million dollars a year.

Same here! I picked up a 200 BenQ spindle! They were all 4X! But my sister ordered one 200 pack online and she got all 8X media!!! For the same price I paid!

When I went to purchase my 128 meg thumbdrive for $9.99 last week, I saw that the FS in Richmond Hill On had a sign in the window advertising that "The online Boxing Day sale at FS.ca starts at Midnight".

Lets hope the BB and FS have upgraded their servers so that they won't crash at 00:05 am like they did last year!

if anyone on the east side gets their flyers early then post, that's okay right?

Well, if they got passed out in the newspaper "today" I don't think Futureshop will mind.

If someone works at the newspaper and posts them 1 week before the date they were suppose to go into the paper...that's a problem.

Yeah... of course...

how did they manage to pull that off? somehow I doubt ad revenue can generate THAT much revenue. also, how do you know they get multi-million per year?
