[elmokiddo]

Ottawa RCSS at Innes, Richmond, and the Kanata Location are all sold out... supposedly they had lineups outside the stores this morning. Blah.

Wow, I hope I can find the a700. Thanks for the heads up.

[StoneColdWhat]

[torontoraptor]

You got your Canon at 10am and only posted it now? :(

Thanks for the info, going to check it out tomorrow, might get lucky.

Edit: For anyone in London, I just called both stores and both sold out this morning. Wish I knew about this earlier. Amazing prices.

Can you post a scan from the receipt with the Canon A700? I checked two "Maxi and Cie" (same group) and the Canon A700 scan at $349.98:?:
See some good deals on tv
Philips 27" CRT Quadrasurf real-flat $128,98

[jory29]

Did Superstore advertise this sale? Is that why people lined up? The A700 is a 6 MP!!! AWESOME deal.

[torontoraptor]

The A700 is a 6 MP!!! AWESOME deal.

That and it usually sells for over $300.

Thats a wicked deal on the Sanyo camera and the MP3 player! Its too good to be true for the Sanyo Camera as I searched online and its listed at $400

[StoneColdWhat]

well appearantly the prices were actually ADVERTISED on the tags so no chance of us getting any of them.

[GMMTC]

I think you should have all waited until today to buy because now there is no tax!

A bit risky don't you think? :)

Thanks OP, just ran out the house when I saw this post (10pm) and grabbed some decent deals. I love RFD :)
2xFuji A400 4mp Cameras $25.44/ea
Creative Webcam $12, regular $70 (VF0250 model i think)
HP Scanner/copier/printer (PSC1400) $9.44, regular $134 (everything included)
They also had some nice big Kodak Camera bags for $2.44, got 4 of those

I also spoted 2 different lexmark scanner/copier/printers for $11 and a cheaper HP for $6 but they didn't come with ink so I passed. One of the girls mentioned that there will be different cameras on tomorrow, they were preparing the tags but I only noticed Kodak 700 something camera maybe?

Pics of today's haul including some stuff from zellers, and the free targus backpack i got from staples a couple months back :)

[Tracer]

i should have paid more attention, they had a bucket o tags on the desk. stoopid me didn't look. now i gotta go back tomorrow morning. i am sure there will be lots of discounts tomorra.

[airjordan604]

How much was the S5200? Was that from the SS too?

[zabuza]

Wow, those are some amazing deals. Even the lesser cameras are great at that price, perfect for gifts.

[torontoraptor]

So are they having new deals tomorrow?

[YLSF]

I went to the Oakville store tonight after seeing this post. They didn't have anything of interest left for me. Well, they had a couple of 128 MB compact flash cards for like $2 each or something but at the time I was thinking "hmm.. what would I do with these"... after I left the store I was thinking ""crap, I should have bought them... I could have used them in my old MP3 player".... anyway.... The girl was saying that the brand for the memory card has gotten a lot of returns (core micro or whatever it is called)

[havoc69]

The a700 at that price is just nuts!! I'm jealous:twisted: . I don't understand why they would sell it that cheap as it's a pretty popular cam!! BTW here in montreal superstore doesn't even exist (no idea why)! wich really sucks as I remember they used to have some pretty crazy deals when I was in winnipeg :mad: .

[backcrack]

anybody know if these sales have been spotted in vancouver area? or was it only in onterrible?

[cliff]

anybody know if these sales have been spotted in vancouver area? or was it only in onterrible?

If you read the first post in the thread you would know that the original poster is in BC.

[GMMTC]

anybody know if these sales have been spotted in vancouver area? or was it only in onterrible?

It's nationwide, I'm in saskatchewan and i'm pretty sure there was someone from surrey &/or kamloops?
oh the s5200 is the camera i bought in october, it was more like $250 :(

[terranaj98]

i scored 2 demos

[anabeces]

[Oni-kun]

They're all gone man. I work at a Loblaws, same deals but within minutes they were all gone, a lot were swipped by employees and customers quickly. I didn't get one cuz i didn't know about it.

[scholar]

a700 is a crazy deal, damn lucky to whomever may have got it.

[pmdoit]

so, can we have a scan from a Canon A700 receipt? Thanks

[crazdefool]

....

[crazdefool]

....

[LuckyB]

I bought an a700 at Loblaws Gatineau this morning. The cashier couldn`t beleive it was so cheap. It was the only one available.

[Ilikethisdeal]

Went to the store at Richmond road in Ottawa and picked a new HP M417(5.2MP, 3X optical room, 7X digital room) for $34.xx and the last open box Fuji S3000 for $44.xx. There were still some open box HP M417 left. Didn't see the A700 with $69.xx.

YMMV

[montward]

Someone Please ?

[Gophermofur]

I went to the one in Mississauga on Argentia.

She said the cameras sold out 5 minutes after going on sale and probably did so everywhere (well populated areas I suppose). Good luck to the rest of you.

[Goober56]

Windsor store says they are sold out, and that SKU reads $350.

Sweet..got 5 - one for me and 4 for gifts..left about 8 more which were gone in minutes.

This at the Laurentian Zehrs in Kitchener.

[Tuppin]

Waaahhhh I hate missing good deals like this. I went in and everything was gone. The weird thing was that the Canon sd600 was sitting there for $299 and I even asked the worker...she said yeah, everything went within hours.

Who decides to put on these clearance prices?? They would have sold at double the price. Very strange.

[NME]

Had the Sony DSC-S60 on sale this morning for $44.xx.

[bigwiggum23]

Calgary

Southtrail, Southport RD and Shawnessy are all sold out.....

[Deal_Princess]

wow too good to be true. Lucky people

[plymouthhater]

I checked Loblaws at Bayview & Hwy 7 this afternoon (Richmond Hill On) - they have the identical electronics dept to the one found in RCSS. The sales staff told me they put all the marked down cameras out last night and they were gone in a few minutes.

[doggity]

Went this morning to check out , but didn't see anything from above posters.:(

Did see someone buy a Canon Powershot A610 for $55.xx

Also saw a pioneer dvd-r/rw recorder for about $50 -Demo only (didn't buy)

This was at Westwood-Coquitlam store.

You guys are so lucky>:(

[twistedone]

I went to two today, both were all sold out. I went to the one in North Vancouver and one in Vancouver close to the airport

[GromitDog]

Last night i did a tour of the lower mainland, guilford, abbotsford, chilliwack, mission and there were no canon A700 cameras, they did have a pile of creative Live! webcams pro for notebooks for 12.44 each. Not sure how good they are.

[NewsyL]

Checked the Delta store on Scott Road this morning. Nothing. Looked thru yellow tags at side counter.

All they had under $100 was a crappy Samsung a503 for $99. 5x digital zoom only, no optical zoom.

.

[lummer]

Calgary

Southtrail, Southport RD and Shawnessy are all sold out.....

I was at the RCSS @ Southport RD early this morning and picked up a Fujifilm FinePix E500 for $45.44. They only had two left at the time. Also picked up a couple SanDisk Cruzer Mini 256MB for $5.44 each (good stocking stuffers).

Thanks OP!

[blanzcs]

I was hoping the Langley store would have had some, or if they might re-stock, this is just an amazing deal and I really need a digital camera. I might have to take a trip down there and take a look for myself.

[babs00]

Calgary NE - None available. They got some SD Cards but none at attractive price. Seems from the talk, they were all taken by employees

[bugmenot]

i river 512 t10 is 19.44 - i got 1
kodak cp310 printer/cam bundle is 19.44
sanyo xacti 6mp cam is 19.44 - i got 4

lots of little things for cheap.

in Vancouver Marine Drive. they had cameras, and 512 sd cards, tv's.
Surrey, king george hwy - lots of sd cards. tv's (televisions. it's surrey y'know)

Can anybody confirm that 32" Citizen tv's are selling under $200 in Ontario?

[terranaj98]

just got back from grandview/metrotown
lets just say nothing thats on clearance is there
all those 1.44 kodak cases are gone.. probably by employee's / greedy people
and cameras.. boom off the shelf

didnt see the toshiba dvd player's
they have a big stack of 760's not 750's:(

[Ilikethisdeal]

Can anybody confirm that 32" Citizen tv's are selling under $200 in Ontario?

Yes, I did see it today morning in Ottawa. Not sure if it's new or demo.

[tonychouca]

I went pickering store.they have 2 A700,but scaned price was 349.xx.
called around,only their store price is not changed.

they are chain company,the price should be same.right?

I don;t know why,anybody know this.

went another store,the cashier said one lady grabed 10 DCS.

[jande9]

Who decides to put on these clearance prices?? They would have sold at double the price. Very strange.

I wonder if there was some sort of software glitch or data entry problem. Maybe somebody somewhere is putting a 20% into the "you pay" box instead of the "you save" box.

It doesn't seem rational to sell at these prices.

[happyplato]

Anyone had any luck in Edmonton locations? Maybe I'll go just to put my mind to rest.

[consumerPI]

Yep, also, employees, their families and their friends would have been given this info as well. So, good luck to anyone looking to get in on this.



I went to the one in Mississauga on Argentia.

She said the cameras sold out 5 minutes after going on sale and probably did so everywhere (well populated areas I suppose). Good luck to the rest of you.

[consumerPI]

Agreed, this does not sound right. A disgruntled employee maybe.

The clearance prices are way too low to make any kind of good business sense.

[dex126]

Went to the store at Wasaga Beach today...Guy was an idiot told me they had a bunch of A700 and Fuji ones for prices listed here...

So i drove from Richmond Hill they were all still original price....They refused to do a price adjustment or even call any other store...THey claimed they didn't have the number and werent allowed to call long distance....

Anyway I still grabbed 2 A700's...went to the Aurora store and got the price adjusted...If the deal was on at the store I would have grabbed all 3!! Meh what can you do....

So for the dude in pickering i suggest u buy those cameras and go to another store to have it matched

[consumerPI]

There is no store in Pickering.

They're getting alot of free publicity
for selling a few cameras cheap. Its a legal form of bait and switch.

[hesp]

checked out both RCSS in Coquitlam and there is nothing left; only memory cards

Althought I got a Little Tikes remote car for my daughter for 2.48 (clearance) Reg 13 bucks so it wasnt a total waste

[Tamarin]

Hp Photosmart M417 5.2 MP $32.79
2x Finepix A345 $29.44
2x Canon A410 $29.44
Lexmark X1195 printer/scanner $10.29

The nice lady rang the Finepix and Canon through for $29.44 because they weren't scanning (supposed to be $35.44 and $25.44 respectively, saving an additional $4).

Thanks Joseph and RFD.

Victoria, BC

I should add that the cameras were in the back, possibly earmarked for an employee. I had to ask if they had any in stock.

[CHINAdeals]

all out k/w/cambridge :(

IF anyone's willing to give up an extra i'll pay double the price!! (for HP bundle)

[quadraphonic]

OOS at Clareview (Edmonton) and Sherwood Park.

[Tamarin]

is it the a410 bundle or just camera ?

Just the camera.

[sanman]

Hey eh^ or even Kamloops, I went to the Kamloops RCSS and I didn't see any clearance cameras or anything else you mentioned...are they all gone? Or do you have to get them to scan the cameras in (because they were all tagged as regular price?).

TIA

[spider]

You have to get them to scan them in prices are marked as regular but they will scan in at the prices listed here.

[dreamlayers]

Creative Webcam $12, regular $70 (VF0250 model i think)

I got one of these at the RCSS in Nanaimo, BC. It sucks. It can sometimes provide a good picture with the right lighting. Low light performance sucks and nearby lamp is enough to wash out highlights. Ideally you need uniform subdued lighting. The dynamic range is horrible. I also frequently see blocky artifacts, like from video compression; I guess the video being sent over USB is highly compressed.

This is pretty much what I'd expect from a webcam that sells for $12.44. I was hoping for something more because it's by Creative Labs and the regular price is so high. Before I used an old Intel PC Camera Pro that I got in 2002 and that was way better.

[sanman]

Saw the JVC 26" TV for 449, strongly considering it but I don't think it has DVI or VGA, which might kill it for me.

[tonychouca]

There is no store in Pickering.


I went store at Ajax.I think is pickering,they are very close.

[sanman]

Just so I get this straight, none of these crazy prices are tagged? You have to ask them to scan for prices? It looked like everything was normal in the Kamloops dept except for that JVC LCD for 449.

[Ilikethisdeal]

Cheap stuff were all gone in a few mins.

[Starturtle]

Posted in another thread that my wife went to Superstore on Lougheed in Coquitlam. They had a Surprise Pre-Boxing Day special...the Selphy CP510 Printer and Canon A420 PowerShot, ink and photo paper bundle all for $37!! They went really fast.

Also, went to SuperStore at Metrotown and they had a couple of different 7" Portable DVD players for $49 each...located in the glass cases. No one seemed to pay attention to them. They indicated that this deal would be available again.

[gengis]

anything left in Ottawa-Gatineau area?

[wlee]

i am jealous :D

[Kamloops]

Anything left in Kamloops. Is it worth me driving there?

[SheeB]

Went to the store at Richmond road in Ottawa and picked a new HP M417(5.2MP, 3X optical room, 7X digital room) for $34.xx and the last open box Fuji S3000 for $44.xx. There were still some open box HP M417 left. Didn't see the A700 with $69.xx.

YMMV

I picked up the open box M417 as my nephew wanted a cheap digi cam for Xmas. :) I also got what may have been the last 1GB SD card as well :?:

I also did not see anything of the other models mentioned but there was a Sony DSC-S60 on display but the salesperson thinks that someone has the packaging but will find no camera in their box so it probably should really be pulled off of display I would think...

It was insane over there this morning no doubt though!

[jackass_ca]

Chatham Store had none when I checked this evening, however, I was in Windsor today, they sold the last A700 display to the guy ahead of me, so I hung around believing that there was another box of it underneath, when I overheard an employee tell a fellow employee, that the Sony DSC-S60, normally, $329, on for $219, just rang up for $42.44, so I picked up 3 of those... which luckily, I also got an extra 4 GB memory card for my Sony from the Rogers upgrade deal... So, looks like some family members are getting good deals on digital cameras. I wish I had known about the webcams though, I would like a better one to try out...
Will have to check again tomorrow. Nice gentleman at Chatham store took the portable scanner and checked a bunch of items, almost all the MP3 players are ringing up less than posted, some $10 less and some alot more. The Sandisk 512 MB model was ringing up for $29.44

[gengis]

this is insane
Loblaws open at 9h00 right?

[ipxxx]

Doesn't appear to be anything left in Orleans on Innes Rd. based on what people were getting here. Then again there was such chaos there (during the no tax hours) that I couldn't get someone to help me price check other things. So people here are saying that Loblaws should have some deals too? Might check them out tomorrow morning if that's the case.

Nothing left in Kamloops, Kamloops. I asked about the cameras today and the guy said it started friday, and were all gone by fri afternoon (and the CSR said he picked up a few himself for $20.xx and $30xx).

I was undaunted though, and I ended up picking up the JVC 26" LCD TV (mentioned earlier in the thread); it was the display model though so I got 10% off and added the $30 off coupon.

Total before taxes was $374.xx, which isn't bad for a 26" HDTV ready LCD TV. I will probably get ripped for this because the TV isn't the greatest in terms of inputs (no DVI or VGA) or specs, but I'm using it as a bedroom TV so its not too much of a concern for me.

[tazi]

Anyone had any luck in Edmonton locations? Maybe I'll go just to put my mind to rest.

Went to the WE store and all they had were the Mini Cruzers. Was told that they would have a delivery on Monday and she thinks that they will get some more items in. She also advised that they are constantly marking down things so to just keep on checking. Anything that is marked down will have xx.44.

How are the picture quality ( for sd and dvd) on this tv?

[mahjongmaniac]

went to RCSS this evening... didn't see ANY of the clearance cameras ...

there were price tags saying A700 was $70, and the fujis were $25/$35, but empty shelves... so were the cheap printers

so either they were bought by employees, or s/b just hoarded all of what was left...

damn, i should've went last nite....

----------


I was at the RCSS @ Southport RD early this morning and picked up a Fujifilm FinePix E500 for $45.44. They only had two left at the time. Also picked up a couple SanDisk Cruzer Mini 256MB for $5.44 each (good stocking stuffers).

Thanks OP!

the 256MB USB drives could be had for "free" AR nowadays.... but i guess if you don't like dealing w/ MIRs, it's a good deal...

-----



went another store,the cashier said one lady grabed 10 DCS.

whoa... wtf? 10 DCs? :O

[mtharvey]

Picked up a couple of gb sd cards around 9.30pm at langley superstore for $18.44. $8.44 for 256mb.
Is core micro any good? speed is up to 10 mb/sec.

[JB7]

No luck with the A700 or any other cams. :( Got one of the kodak cases for $2.44 and another for $3.44. They also had pc mobile phone accessories on clearance. I got a nice leather case for the audiovox 8615 for $2.44(works for the 8910). I'm going to go back and check for a few of the deals posted since.

[mahjongmaniac]

Posted in another thread that my wife went to Superstore on Lougheed in Coquitlam. They had a Surprise Pre-Boxing Day special...the Selphy CP510 Printer and Canon A420 PowerShot, ink and photo paper bundle all for $37!! They went really fast.

not sure if it's the same model, but i saw another Selphy printer going for $40 alone.

so you got a steal!


Also, went to SuperStore at Metrotown and they had a couple of different 7" Portable DVD players for $49 each...located in the glass cases. No one seemed to pay attention to them. They indicated that this deal would be available again.

like when? boxing day?

i didn't find any... but would've like to buy one at that price...

---------


The Sandisk 512 MB model was ringing up for $29.44

i guess it just depends on the store... i saw that tagged at $29.

yes for those who dunno already, .44 is a sign of clearance at RCSS ;)

[eh^]

Hey eh^ or even Kamloops, I went to the Kamloops RCSS and I didn't see any clearance cameras or anything else you mentioned...are they all gone? Or do you have to get them to scan the cameras in (because they were all tagged as regular price?).

TIA

no they had the sale price on them

[eh^]

Anything left in Kamloops. Is it worth me driving there?

no there sold out , went in today to grab one of those citizen portable dvd players for 50.00.. no cameras left tho

[gulfan]

Superstore is currently doing SKU Rationalization, that is removing products that need to be discontinued for the new year. Around 1,300 products will be purged from the store, replaced by either newer product lines, or similar products. I managed to pick up some memory cards, 1 GB USB drives and some camera lens cleaners which were selling for .44cents (reg. 12.89). Checked five Superstores, no camera's left.

This 'deal' started Friday, as such anything decent was gone very very early.

does anyone know if this means more massive discounts will happen daily ?

[Peanut69]

I just picked up two Fuji E500 cameras at $45 each at the Winnipeg Mcphillips location this evening. I asked if they had any clearance cameras left. They said they didn't. I got the guy to go through the camera boxes behind the counter and sure enough there was one. I grabbed that and the display one.

[Oni-kun]

Stop calling them freakin SKU's we don't use SKU's at Loblaw companies. At Loblaws and RCSS we use UPC's UNIVERSAL PRODUCT CODE. NOT SKU. bugs the **** out of me when a customer keeps calling it a sku when clearly it says UPC on the barcode

[consumerPI]

Yes, Pickering is situated beside Ajax, but not in Pickering.
Just like Mississauga is situated beside Oakville, but is not in Oakville.

When trying to communicate deals here that are time sensitive, it's important to provide accurate info.:)


I went store at Ajax.I think is pickering,they are very close.

[consumerPI]

This sale, should be a candidate for RFD Sale of the year. Unless of course someone at Loblaws gets fired for this on Monday.

[e-alien]

Went to Superstore at Metrotown tonight and the only clearance items left were the TVs and some camera bags. Bought couple of Kodak ones for $1.44 each.

[coolCAT]

this is insane
Loblaws open at 9h00 right?

Thinking that Loblaws will have the same sale?

You sound pretty angry about it, when really, it's just semantics, poor consumers don't know better, because most retailers assign a product code (SKU) unique to them, and the bar code is cross referenced. RCSS and the like that don't use it, actually cause themselves some grief I find, because the receipt for instance merely says "PS2 game", and nothing more, other than the price. This caused a problem for me last year when I went to return a game, actually, a problem for the store, because I had several games on one receipt at varying prices and the price tags had been removed from the games, so when I went to return one of them, I got to tell them which one I was returning, which happened to be the most expensive, as the prices had all changed, just after Christmas.

[gengis]

yeah there doing the same rebates go read the thread man!

[twopointfivebar]

Just got back from Don Mills & Eglinton store. EVERYTHING that was priced insanely was on hold for someone.

Very unfair, cause I'm betting that 100% of those items on hold is most likely for staff.

[twopointfivebar]

yeah there doing the same rebates go read the thread man!

I checked Loblaws at Vic Park & Gerrard, nothing. Just a bunch of low-end Kodaks.

[ipxxx]

Uhmm...went to Loblaws. They have one A600 left but is marked at regular price. The girl scans it in and the product is "not on file" so she goes to ask the manager and the manager refuses to mark it down to $34.44 that was mentioned in the first post. wth? :confused:

buy it then pricematch at richmond store

[ipxxx]

buy it then pricematch at richmond store

Haha I doubt that will work..or will it? :| Because if you think about it, I have already spent X amount of dollars on it already why would another (different) store take another X amount off just because I say its on clearance?

[gengis]

if it doesn't work you could always ask for a refund but it seems somebody on this topic have done the pricemacth

I appreciate your suggestions...but have YOU read the "damn thread". Can you please point out where someone has said they went to Loblaws and price matched a camera from another loblaws or a superstore? I on the other hand have been reading the thread and I did not see anyone mentioning this and rather people have just been going into loblaws and getting these prices without much hassle. So please do as you say and read the "damn thread". Thanks though, again, for the help :)

Are UPC and SKU the same thing? they just serve to identify product.

Was it a Fuju a600 or a Canon a600? It was the Fuji that was reduced. Not sure why the Canon A600 wasn't.

It was the Fuji. :(

[happyplato]

Anyone know what the exact differences for the A700 vs the new A710 IS?

[jstaneon]

Correct. Different identification numbers though. At a store you'll generally only see the UPC.

heh, don't forget the Zellers $1 clearance deals :razz:


otherwise, i'd 2nd that.


i bet these deals will stand to be better than their boxing day deals!

yep... sometimes i hate how simple their item descriptions have become on the receipts...

PS2/XBOX clearance games just simply say "PS2/XBOX hardware" on it.... it's incorrect to say it's hardware already... geez... -_-:(

ok here:


They're all gone man. I work at a Loblaws, same deals but within minutes they were all gone, a lot were swipped by employees and customers quickly. I didn't get one cuz i didn't know about it.


I bought an a700 at Loblaws Gatineau this morning. The cashier couldn`t beleive it was so cheap. It was the only one available.


I checked Loblaws at Bayview & Hwy 7 this afternoon (Richmond Hill On) - they have the identical electronics dept to the one found in RCSS. The sales staff told me they put all the marked down cameras out last night and they were gone in a few minutes.


Went to the store at Wasaga Beach today...Guy was an idiot told me they had a bunch of A700 and Fuji ones for prices listed here...

So i drove from Richmond Hill they were all still original price....They refused to do a price adjustment or even call any other store...THey claimed they didn't have the number and werent allowed to call long distance....

Anyway I still grabbed 2 A700's...went to the Aurora store and got the price adjusted...If the deal was on at the store I would have grabbed all 3!! Meh what can you do....

So for the dude in pickering i suggest u buy those cameras and go to another store to have it matched

english is not my native language but I think I understand that Loblaws have the same deals and somebody actually bought 2 A700 at Richmond RCSS and went to Aurora RCSS to do the pricematch am I correct?

[ipxxx]

... but I think I understand that Loblaws have the same deals and somebody actually bought 2 A700 at Richmond RCSS and went to Aurora RCSS to do the pricematch am I correct? ...

Correct me if I'm wrong but Richmond Rd. (in Ottawa) and Richmond Hill are two different places completely. And I also think that the 5 hour drive (approx.) from Ottawa to Aurora for a pricematch kills the deal :D.

I was not saying that Loblaws does or does not have SOME (or the same) deals. I am just saying that it doesn't APPEAR to be consistent with Superstore deals that people are getting here and that price matching between different Loblaws (NOT RCSS stores which you quoted above) may or may not work. That was what you were suggesting I do, no?

[Konowl]

Are UPC and SKU the same thing? they just serve to identify product.

It's semantics, really. A UPC is a version of a SKU. Loblaws, internally, doesn't call anything SKU in my experience. They have the UPC and their own internal number, referrred to as the NG Item Number, a 6 digit number unique to all products.

[Konowl]

RCSS and the like that don't use it, actually cause themselves some grief I find, because the receipt for instance merely says "PS2 game", and nothing more, other than the price.

They do use it, obviously. It's generally the reduced bins where they will all scan at the same price, as they come directly from the company selling them with the $18.98 sticker on it. This is generally the only situation you will run into IN THE ENTIRE STORE where there will be a generic product description on your receipt, except for when they use the Pink Clearance stickers, as they also have a generic description.

[Konowl]

anything left in Ottawa-Gatineau area?

Wait until boxing day, they have some even better deals coming down the pipeline for the 26th.

[Boyboy]

How do you know? You work there? :confused:

[dex126]

LOL no i didn't drive from richmond to aurora...

I drove from Richmond Hill to Wasaga Beach (1 hour 15 minutes) then stopped off at the Aurora store on the way home to get the price adjusted since the Superstore at Wasaga Beach claimed their prices were different. The manager at Aurora told me it was BS and they were probably trying to save it for themselves...Anyway I got 2 now so it's not a bad deal!

[porsche22]

Just came back from the Chatham location.. just to see if they got any left. THey have a lot of the Fuji A600 but when i asked how much it was they said that this one wasn't on clearance and that it was $180 i kno you can brign it to another store to PM but i won't be goin back to Windsor or Toronto for awhile. Kinda sucks how diff stores have diff deals.....

[tonychouca]

yeah,I think they really want to keep by themselves, I went to Ajax (not pickering) they had 2 in the moring,price $349 something. asked them why their price is so high,they really didn;t tell me the correct reason,said maybe select stores. I explained to them even the west coast price is 69.44, even I explained I called around in GTA area,price is 69.44.
so I can understand now they want to keep by themselves.
today morning,I called them,they said all gone, their price still $349.

[hesp]

just got back from the Grandview location in GVR. Managed to pick up a couple of items

Creative Webcam: 12bucks (last one left)
Optex lens cleaner: .44 cents

They have the Canon self printers for 39 bucks (about 7 of them)

They had quite a few of Citizen DVD players for $19

They had a Sandisk E250 512MB MP3 player for $29 and the Sony 512MB for $39.

[bluetangerine]

No A700 in Kelowna :(

But I did get the Creative Labs lappy webcam for $12 and a lowepro camera case for $3 for a small digital camera.

Thanks!

[TedEdFred]

Nothing left in Moose Jaw. The sales person had quite the attitude. Pretty frustrating. "You looking for the $10 dvd player oh they're all gone" Damn employees probably hid all the good items for themselves. Oh well.

[consumerPI]

Better?

The only way that this can be better is if you actually steal these items. ;)

You're right, they absolutely use it, however, on their receipt, there is no number associated with the product, nothing at all, just the description, department number and price. CT uses their 7 digit code, Zellers, uses their UPC or SKU number, walmart too. On the receipt they are identified as numbers and product, whereas RCSS only has a description. It's their demise really, you could go and buy a game for instance that was just reduced, for the new price, and return it with a receipt that simply says PS2 Game, and when the low price comes up when they scan it, claim that you paid the full price. I had something similar happen, I went last year to return a game after Christmas when they had all those 2 for $9.98 deals, and the game was originally $19.98 on my receipt, which is what I paid the week before Christmas, they gave me back the $19.98 price, but there was no way for them to know what I truly paid!

[lastchild01]

i am willing to buy anyones 4+ meg camera, pm me please. I will pay twice the price and more + shipping.

hm... i somehow have doubts about that...

these various RCSS clearance deals have been insane lately... A700 for $70? 32" TVs for <$200?

i'd doubt RCSS would have similar deals on boxing day, let alone "better deals"....





course, hope i'm wrong :cheesygri

Can you explain more in detail? Are you saying that the person issuing the refund did not ask for a receipt? I would think that they are refunding whatever you paid on the receipt?

Ugh, no! :)

I work within the same chain, and the boxing day deals for the most part are for all the stores under LCL.

I already got 5 PM's on what the deals will be... :cheesygri

That's what I am saying I did have the receipt for a game for $19.98, and the game was now selling for $4.98. However, all the receipt says is PS2 game, and the price, not which game or a sku or product number, so when they scan the game and the wrong price came up, I explained that I bought it before the sale and they gave me the full price back!

Ok gotcha now. So they gave you back the 19.98? or the original full price of the game? (somewhere north of 19.98)

[mahjongmaniac]

Nope... :)

i don't understand how you seem to have these "insider info"....

heh... and i'm not one of 'em :)

[Kamloops]

I went into the Kamloops store tonight and started looking around. I asked the guy working there if there were any more cameras on sale. He knew what i was talking about and said no they were all gone. He told me he bought the last Fuji a400 for 25.44.

I asked if there was any other good deals and he said it was all gone.

I looked in the display case and saw a Sony DSC S40. I knew that someone had got the S60 for 44.XX from the other thread so I asked him to scan it. It was marked 159.44 Clearance. He looked shocked when it scanned at $31.44
Of course I bought it. I started looking around more and he scanned some other things for me but no great deals. Then at the back of all the Samsung cameras I saw a box that said Sony on it that looked stashed away. I asked him to pull it out and scan it - Sony HandyCam Mini DV DCR-HC21 It scanned at 109.44!

I bought it as well. Great score. Thanks to the OP on this one!

http://www.kyra.ca/rcss.jpg

[sanman]

Wow, nicely done Kamloops. I must've talked to the same CSR, he mentioned that he bought the last A400, and said there was nothing left. Persistence pays off I suppose, but I'm quite happy with the JVC TV i scored.

He said he bought it for his brother for a Xmas gift. Really nice guy. They are pretty relaxed in there and were having just as much fun as I was.

They had another a400 on display with no box but they had a a600 box so he was going to sell me the a400 in the a600 box with the accessories but when he scanned the box it came out at 189.98! He could not understand why it came out so high. Said the sale must have ended. But the two things I bought were still on sale. Who knows?

[cywhiz]

I guess I am too late on this again! I missed the Zellers camera clearance and hopefully not this one :)

Does anyone know any Loblaws or RCSS (in GTA or York Region) that still has the Canon A700 on sale? I really appreciate it, thanks!

On a side note, would RCSS PM their own clearance deals? For example, if I buy find a Canon A700 in a RCSS store at regular price, would they PM it for $69.44?

doesn't hurt to try though

[exigent_one]

Got back a while ago from various RCSS in Lower Mainland. But some of the details are a little hazy.

Guildford or Coquitlam (can't remember which one) - There was a demo box sitting behind the counter for the Sony DSCS40. Didn't even ask about it, but it was there. Question is, was the camera still around? Someone else can check. Lots of camera accessories still available at both locations. Most of these items didn't have discounted price tags.

.44c Optek digital lens pen (LP10) (reg. $14.98?)
.44c Optek neoprene wrist strap (WSTRAPN) (reg. $9.98?)
$12.44 Sandisk Cruzer Mini 512MB (reg. ?)
$6.44-$8.44 Pelican waterproof micro cases (reg. $14.98-$16.98) *varying
prices on differnet colors. I'm sure someone could get a freebie here*
$12.44 Creative Live!CamNotebook Pro (reg.$64.98?) *Guildford Only*
$4.44 Giotto tripod (RT8220) (reg. $29.98) *Guildford Only*
$79.98 Electrome 10" Portable DVD (PDV10E10) (reg. $249.98?) *Display only.
It has sticker residue on the screen. Maybe you can get a deeper
discount.

Likely other stuff too, but not stuff I found...A keen eye could still pick out heaps of goodies.

Guildford or Coquitlam (can't remember which one) - There was a demo box sitting behind the counter for the Sony DSCS40. Didn't even ask about it, but it was there. Question is, was the camera still around? Someone else can check. Lots of camera accessories still available at both locations. Most of these items didn't have discounted price tags.

.44c Optek digital lens pen (LP10) (reg. $14.98?)
.44c Optek neoprene wrist strap (WSTRAPN) (reg. $9.98?)
$12.44 Sandisk Cruzer Mini 512MB (reg. ?)
$6.44-$8.44 Pelican waterproof micro cases (reg. $14.98-$16.98) *varying
prices on differnet colors. I'm sure someone could get a freebie here*
$12.44 Creative Live!CamNotebook Pro (reg.$64.98?) *Guildford Only*
$4.44 Giotto tripod (RT8220) (reg. $29.98) *Guildford Only*
$79.98 Electrome 10" Portable DVD (PDV10E10) (reg. $249.98?) *Display only.
It has sticker residue on the screen. Maybe you can get a deeper
discount.

Likely other stuff too, but not stuff I found...A keen eye could still pick out heaps of goodies.

the Sony S40 you saw was an empty demo box...no camera

C'mon man I think you're asking a little much here. I mean he only has 17 cameras and between the 3 of them that's less than 6 each. I'm not even sure how he'll cope not having one for each day of the week.

There's a point when profiteering precludes ability for others to share in fortune and fun of deals. This leaves a bitter taste for people.

This is definitely the crappy side of RFD.

[SUMDUDEinGVA]

Hmmm.. it seems like someone got a lot of the A700 and selling it on Craigslist to earn a hella lot of profit... geeez... people dun seem to have the sharing mood even tho xmas is coming...

Where's the love?! :confused:

If you had "the love" for who you were buying for other than yourself, you'd pay whatever they asked!!
After all, isn't that what Christmas is all about? Sharing and giving happiness? Just think how happy you'd make the seller!!! :D :cheesygri

Seriously, this is the depressing part of human nature. We all preach "holiday spirit" and "sharing" and "cheer" but it's not really practiced. All I gotta say is...check out a busy shopping mall parking lot for some real fun stuff. ;) True spirit.

Good lord you're such an @$$ :evil:

[jonkaho]

Good lord you're such an @$$ :evil:



i agree with you!

[jackass_ca]

I have to admit that I picked up 3 of the Sony digital cameras, one for me, one for a gift for my mother and the 3rd to sell at a reasonable price, so the other 2 were free basically. There were still some left and the employee even asked me, don't you want to get all of them. Then a nice couple came up behind me and I said, they want them and sure enough they bought the other, one for them and one for their kids. Buying every one in site, simply because you can, wasn't the point of sharing deals on RFD, it was to point out deals to fellow consumers. Well, there is no use in pointing out the deal you got, if you bought everything up and it is no longer a deal for anyone else!

[bpopd]

i agree with you!

Agreed

Good for you. Nice to see the RFD spirit is well and true for some of us.:lol:

In case anyone is intersted, the Weston Rd. RCSS had about 10 of the Selphy 510 left about an hour ago.

[Chookman]

I looked in the display case and saw a Sony DSC S40. I knew that someone had got the S60 for 44.XX from the other thread so I asked him to scan it. It was marked 159.44 Clearance. He looked shocked when it scanned at $31.44

Please post the SKU on the receipt. I went to the store and found one but when the cashier scanned it, it registered and a UPC not in their system. They have it on hold for me until they call head office and get the UPC. If I walk in with the UPC number, they should be able to punch it in and it'll show the S40 at the lower price and I could get it rather than wait for them to confirm and have it conveniently "go missing" to an employee.

[nounou23]

I got myself 2 X Canon 420 and printer bundle for 37$ and my friend got 1 :)

Thanks for the deals guys.

There are barcodes all over this box.

Hey did you try getting the Fuji A600 but it didn't come up as clearance??

Maybe that lady that told me it wans't on clearance knew waht she was tlakign about... i shoud've asked her to scan the camera still....

[consumerPI]

Everything else is long gone though. There yesterday.

[good deal bc]

just to let you all know, I started shopping on Sunday - a whole 2 days after the deals were posted....lots of time for everyone else to go get some good deals. PLUS - I am shopping for 3 buddies - we are splitting all the stuff up so as an individual I only have a small stash....

Anyway, you snooze you loose as no one in their right mind would pass up a HOT DEAL!

What? You didn't check Burnaby, Surrey, Richmond or North Van? You covered a 85km radius and still left 4 stores in the Vancouver area unchecked! I'm sure they've got more cameras you could sell! :evil:

======================
I think it's really ridiculous today,I printed out this price list. I request buy 4,they said we limited quatity to 3.ok fine.buy 3.
they ask manager go to store,and let me leave the store right away.because I print out that price list.for that price list,I can easily find what I'm looking for.
it's really ridiculous.the manager said he had rights to ask anybody leave my store and ban anybody.

I think it's not a good reason.because their price tag showed up this S60 for 218.XX,something like that. I think they don;t want to lose the money.I printed out the price list, I was not doing anything wrong.

Sorry for sounding bitter. The good deal bc just made a horrible impression so if it's not for resale, then good for you.

[Firestorm]

Are the Phillips and Electrohome TVs SD or HD?
Toshiba DVD player has DivX? I might need to pick that up!

[malibuman]

No its not for re-sale and its Not gloating.. its just sharing just like everyone else.. and my shopping was down on time off out of uniform. so i was just another customer like everyone else.

[djzed]

Just came back from a Superstore in Calgary (Westhills), and they have quite a few of the previously mentioned cameras in the display case with the regular price tags. So I asked the cashier to scan one of them for me, she knew right away what I was after and told me that the sale prices were to clear out the old models and that the ones in the display case are a new shipment and are regular price, so it looks like this was a very limited time clearance sale.

Oh yeah, she also mentioned that staff bought most of the cameras.:evil:

[blainehamilton]

I was bitter until I got off my ass and did some shopping at rcss. I'm a happy man now!

You know what they say: hate the player, but don't hate the game. A lot of members take that to heart too much here.

[good deal bc]

No its not for re-sale and its Not gloating.. its just sharing just like everyone else.. and my shopping was down on time off out of uniform. so i was just another customer like everyone else.

We are just sharing what is on sale. it is up to you to get off your pc and get you A.s .s out there to get it. 1st come first served.

[blainehamilton]

Oh, and all stores usually keep the boxes for items that are on display. If the staff tell you otherwise, ask for a hefty discount on a clearance item.

The DVD recorder I picked up had some dust and fingerprints on it but the manuals remote and discs were brand new in the display box that was in there top stock. I found it after the staff told me they throw them all away.

Lazy asses...

[aznmidnite]

Checked the Grandview location in Vancouver, and also asked 3 different sales people. No luck though... even on some items I saw (ex: ipod speakers, Toshiba DVD Player), they still scanned in at "regular" price.

Strange, I wonder why it seems like different locations don't always have these specials.

I also heard one of the sales people talk about a digital camera (I didn't catch which model they were talking about), that scanned in at $50, but they changed the price back to the "regular" price, as they said there was no way they would sell if for $50.

[mahjongmaniac]

Toshiba DVD Player With DIVX 9.44


wow... that Toshiba standalone plays divX :O... that's hot!

[Firestorm]

Anyone know how Marine Drive and Metrotown Superstores are doing (GVRD)?

[mahjongmaniac]

Oh, and all stores usually keep the boxes for items that are on display. If the staff tell you otherwise, ask for a hefty discount on a clearance item.


you sure about that?

i found a demo lexmark printer for $9 but it had no ink cartridges/cables/ nothing...

asked for the boxes, but they said they throw out the boxes (for whatever reason that may be :confused: )


that's also weird in that had they kept it, they would've been able to sell the demo product too....

[malibuman]

We are just sharing what is on sale. it is up to you to get off your pc and get you A.s .s out there to get it. 1st come first served.

exactly.. and thats what i did.. work there or not who wouldnt buy stuff thats that cheap..


good luck to you all. :)

[Haz]

No its not for re-sale and its Not gloating.. its just sharing just like everyone else.. and my shopping was down on time off out of uniform. so i was just another customer like everyone else.
Then I apologize for my bitter response. The other guy just got me and others here all worked up with his obvious hoarding and then copy and pasting his list of loot in multiple threads.

Welcome to RFD! :) Enjoy your stay!

[malibuman]

thanks.. lol that was kinda rough..

[Haz]

Anyone know how Marine Drive and Metrotown Superstores are doing (GVRD)?

Marine Drive has nothing left. When I picked up my A610, I asked for 1. The other people behind me were like, "I want 3!", "I want 4!" There were only 2. Myself and another guy that was there for 2 hours verbally wrestling the CSR.

[blainehamilton]

Every store told me they throw away the boxes. I would look between the spaces in the covers for the storage areas above the displays that ring the electronics departments and find the boxes in 30 seconds or less.

Then I would tell the staff I found the box and I want them to get it for me. They act like asses, I get responses like 'its not my job, I don't have a ladder, Its too dusty, etc. So I ask them to get the store manager so he can get them, and that's when they move their asses and grab a ladder.

After today most of the superstore electronics department employees look like lazy overpaid rude unionized workers in my opinion. There were some exceptions, but most were losers. Have fun at your crappy job.

[nounou23]

My friend was at the Moncton Trinity Store and they were driving the price back up.. (I dont know how...)... but anyway.. just a FYI

[malibuman]

I dont know what superstore you went to but I can assure that ours is not like that and that are staff is nothing like that. i encourage customers to buy demo/display models and give them all appropriate boxes/packaging and also give them 10 % off any opened display box without them asking. we are very knowledagable about our products also. If you ever come into ours, Ill do what ever I can for you.

[gmark2000]

We are just sharing what is on sale. it is up to you to get off your pc and get you A.s .s out there to get it. 1st come first served.

How is it sharing when you clean out a half dozen stores? You're a greedy profiteer if you start re-selling any of this booty.

Which cameras do they have? Is Fuji A600 there with the regular price $189.98? I heard they were having A600 for the clearance price $34.44 on Saturday while other Calgary stores had the regular price.

Not in Kamloops the employees are excellent. I could not of had better service.

Deals are still out there I went back to RCSS today and picked up a Fuji A400 in an A600 box for 23.44 and a HP Deskjet 5440 Photo Printer for 9.44

1 X Sony Handycam DCR-HC21 for $109.44
1 X Sony DSC-S40 Digital Camera for $31.44
1 X Fuji A400 Digital Camera for $23.44 - Got a 10% Discount for Open Box
1 X HP Deskjet 5440 Photo Printer for $9.44

I am sure there is other stuff lurking in there somewhere. The guys that work at this store are awesome with excellent attitudes! Very willing to help you find this stuff. Was a very good experience shopping there.

I did not show up until late last night and early this morning and got these deals so good luck in your bargain hunting.

How is it sharing when you clean out a half dozen stores? You're a greedy profiteer if you start re-selling any of this booty.

i think in his terms of "sharing" is "sharing what items were on clearance"...

[skylighter]

Back from Hull, QC (Ottawa area) Loblaw and they have nothing but some clearance memory cards 9.44 for 256 mb and 18.44 for 512mb both CF and SD, no microSD though.

Don't know if they are hot, but figure someone will tell me here...:cheesygri

[malibuman]

the 1 GB core micro's should be 18.44 also. you should get one if u can use it. there also high speed cards.

[quadraphonic]

2 HP Deskjet 5440 Photo Printers were on the shelf at the RCSS on 137 Ave. and 120 something St. Didn't see much of anything else though.

Edit: Oops.. this is in Edmonton. Good luck RFDers.

[GMMTC]

you sure about that?
i found a demo lexmark printer for $9 but it had no ink cartridges/cables/ nothing...

One person told me that too, but a second sales person said he knew were all the stuff was. They had it in a plastic bag in the back.

Another weird thing, I went back the next morning and there was a lady who was just buying the display model PSC1400. The exact printer/spot where I had bought the display model less than 12 hours before :|

the RCSS i went to did have a "back room" but it looked like a bunch of photos kept for customers...

maybe he lied... who knows.

[lithiumli]

went to the don mills and eglinton RCSS just for the heck of it since i was passing by. someone in this thread said that they went and there were none. so there were a few canons behind the counter (a530, a540 sd600) got him to scan them all and no luck...hahaha... all 200+ i was just hoping to get lucky. so i asked him about the a700 and he's like ya they all sold out on saturday. so i asked him if there were anymore cameras that were onsale. and same reply all sold out on saturday. oh well it was worth a shot....LOL

[gengis]

Can I p/m a Loblaws against a RCSS?

Maybe I am wrong... but the price you found in Loblaw should be same price as RCSS.

alot of time thought they won't do a rescan. Like i went to RCSS on saturday midmorning, and at night... and they said that the prices were as marked. I asked the cashier very polietly to do a rescan.... and she straight out said no. I then went on sunday and tired my luck again. This time i tried a time that wasn't so busy... the girl was behind the cash. I asked her to do a scan on one of the cameras and she refused me again... Then my sister told me that when i turned my back she was scanning a few of the cameras.

I was so desperate I drove about an hour for another superstore.. but they barely had any camera's left. too bad... i guess my luck.... :(

Congradulations to anyone who got their hands on one!!

Maybe she knows something is going on as you request price scan again and again. End up, she put on hold for herself and buy them all.
I mean, I just hate something like this happen. You're a staff, your role is a staff that serve customer, not being a customer. I don't mind you buy it after you are off but not while you still at work. :mad:

I would have told her that you wanted to buy that camera, check to see what it rang up as, and if not the clearance price just say you changed your mind. Not the nicest thing to do but if they refuse to scan it for you, too bad.

no I won't there's no sign of clearance so I won't run tonight

My local RCSS in Kanata has price scanners throughout the store (on posts). There wasn't one in electronics, so I just walked to the nearest section and scanned the items myself.

[mpmp]

... you guys are totally right about taking the item to the purchase counter. Its just I would of felt really bad for not buying it then. I know, I know... please don't comment about that!!!!! People call me stupid, but I'm just a sweet girl!!

I just feel bad because of the extent i went to ... to try to get this deal. drove such a distant... and on sat night it was a zoo at superstore. After no deals in the electonic dep i went to the produce dept.. and some kid stuck gum in my hair... :( talk about bad luck!!! i tell you, I don't know how you guys do it... even w/ the zellers deal!!!... that's called talent!!!

Anyways, I checked back this morning and they didn't have the cameras that are listed at the beginning of the post. Do you guys think i should try w/ just any camera??? And if so which one should I try my luck with, because I can 'change my mind' once before they catch on.

thanks alot guys!!

are there any in the KW area? has anyone checked?

[QweQaz]

Just wanted to drop by and mention that the employees in the electronics section(except for one individual who happened to be the best-looking female of the lot) were very impolite and flat out refused to scan even 1 item I asked for. Ended up buying the Curtis DVD1071 DVD player for $9.44, so I guess I got something.....

[Poy]

i work at in the photolab/electronics in a RCSS. lol we had quite a nice volume of calls with people who had a list ready to hammer me with whats left. I thought nothing was left because i checked. Till i had a hardcore RFD'er who came and actually found the Canon A700 and 2x hp printers for $15 each. >.< Well i guess i haven't checked hard enough but whats funny is there were 2 other RFD'ers in with a list also scanning the area hard! None the less this weekend was very crazy with the no tax. I expect boxing day to be just as crazy. :lol:

[jstaneon]

I thought I found an A700, but it ended up being an empty box :lol: The upc on the box did still scan at $69.44

Someone must have taken the camera, and not the rest of the stuff. For $69, still not a bad deal I guess.

Gonna go check a couple places tomorrow that I have a "hunch." :cheesygri

The HP Photosmart M417 comes with Energizer Lithium E2 batteries which are worth $12+tax on their own!

$29.44, only demo left and 1 brand new thats on "hold"

RCSS @ Highland Hills the staff took everything.
Zehrs @ Laurentian Power Centre nothing left.
Zehrs in West End Guelph has nothing left.

Waterloo has no Electronic locations.
You can try Cambridge but I'm sure that when the staff caught word they bought the "good stuff".

Yeah, I feel pretty cheap taking something to the till and then not buying it, so I try to avoid it any way I can, but at the same time it's not like anyone there is going to recognize me or care what I do (probably the same for you). Getting gum stuck in the hair sucks, but saying to hell with it all and giving up can really put a downer on your day; if you got a camera it probably would've put a smile on your face and made it all worth it :)

As for the cameras, they're mostly the older ones that are being cleared out; if you see a box that's dusty or older looking than everything else, or a demo camera that looks like it's the only one left - those would be good places to start. I would suggest finding another electronics staff member to ask if you can check some prices (that first one you talked to sounded kinda selfish & mean... not everyone is going to be like that) - if they don't cooperate, look for older boxes - ones with dust on them, look a little beaten up, have clearance tags (even if for a higher price), etc.

Of course, if you know older models from newer ones, then you can use that knowledge to find some cheap ones.

Good luck & happy hunting! :D

[mpmp]

i'm off to supoerstore again to try my luck again... hopefully, there will be a different person working. Thanks kwiky for giving me positive feedback and hope to try again!!!!!

Seriously, to those who were able to get camera's and other killer deals, congradulations once again.

If anyone is still interested in the grey/silver canon a430 for 129.99 they still had one at RCSS on Richmond in Ottawa. The clerk was nice enough to scan it for me even though he thought it should be the same price as the blue (from another post). I didn't take it because this was yesterday and I missed the no tax or the better Canon for $70. I should be reading this newsgroup and acting a lot faster!

I believe they have lots of this at RCSS Kanata. They did when I went by, no one was really buying them. No price tag on them, I only had them scan the grey one but the blue didn't have a price tag so it should scan at 129 as well. Got it during the no tax sale. I'm happy with it (not for me anyways).

There are 4 different Upc Bar Codes on the box of the Sony DCR-hc21 that I got and they scanned one of them?

Okay,with all of this talk about us the consumers and what we are doing right, I honestly think that we should say some of the positive experiences we have had at RCSS. For starters, the Chatham store has been absolutely wonderful, only got a little attitude and I mean very little from one employee, that as I was walking to the till with a camera bundle to have the price checked, she yelled to me, that "Yes, it's the price on the sign, no lower". Other than that, each time I was there, they would offer to grab the gun and scan any and all items that I want. And they never hide prices, they always show me the screen. In fact one woman, as I have said, always greets me and says "see you tomorrow". What do they care, it is not their money, they are not on commission, they are there to do their job and if they sell one camera, or 25, their day ends the same and they go home. Even for a store manager to invest that much concern, and deny the sales is ridiculous. They don't set the prices, the head office does, so it's not his fault that cameras are selling for nearly 10% of the original price!

[st7860]

superstore is like shopping at walmart, don't expect service. if you want service, go to Safeway or Saveonfoods

[Kamloops]

The Kamloops Store employees could not have been any better at customer service. In fact this is a place i would never of thought of to buy electronics but I will consider it in the future.

Actually, I found the two guys at the St Albert store to be top notch, shouts out to them if they ever read this. Another female staff member was a bit pissed when I started pointing out the clearance cameras and bought a couple, but then said to her, get that one and that one, they should ring up as XX.XX, and she was nice after that.

The two things I hate is when they get upset because they feel entitled to the deals before customers and we find them first, and when they are just plain lazy, such as not getting demo boxes that they know damn well where they are.

[greentea]

My case is exactly the same.

I found a HP M417 but no price for it after being scanned. They told me the same story: two days.

I have to check the store everyday on my way back home to make sure they still kept it.

Can anybody who got the HP M417 post the UPC code here? Thanks a lot.

if they were to keep boxes for every single demo box in their backroom, it'd be overflowing all the time.

k they still cant find the price for Sony DCR DVD 92, anyone have one laying around in there neck of the woods and can get them scanned. The manager said she would match the price if its a reciept from another superstore. I'm thinking these camcorders are also very cheap cause they are older models which superstore seems to be liquidating

Sony's DCRHC21 MiniDV Handycam® Camcorder with 2.5” Touch Panel LCD
DCRHC21 Price $549.99*
I paid 109.44 at Superstore which is 80% less than http://www.sonystyle.ca

So maybe for the Sony's DCRDVD92 DVD Handycam® Camcorder at 80% off
sonystyle.ca Price $849.99* would be 170.00. Sounds fair! :)

Found this on the net -
Sony DCR-DVD92 DVD Handycam Camcorder

It's not bad.
It's a 4x optical zoom, which is nice.
It doesn't have manual controls, which it doesn't sound like you really care for.
Canon P&S generally take very nice pictures.
I bought one for my sister and I don't buy junk so you shouldn't worry that I am recommending something that I wouldn't buy.

Finally got M417 back home, $36.44 as I expected.

They didn't call me back after 48 hours as they promised. But they didn't sell it to others. I almost gave up coz the first scan still "no price" but the guy is nice he did it again, miracle happened! it finally showed up.

they got the demo box for my a700 in the cabinet below the cameras, it had a post-it on it saying when they put it out for demo and had all the accessories still sealed. i would assume the tvs and bigger stuff packaging gets tossed.

It's not bad.
It's a 4x optical zoom, which is nice.
It doesn't have manual controls, which it doesn't sound like you really care for.
Canon P&S generally take very nice pictures.
I bought one for my sister and I don't buy junk so you shouldn't worry that I am recommending something that I wouldn't buy.

Thanks! I managed to find one as a demo, so I got an additional 10% off and it was $116+tax. :) Not a mark on it since it was a display case demo, not one of those that are mounted outside for people to touch. So, finally I feel like I got a deal out of all these crazy threads.

I got lucky and found the A420 printer bundle mixed in with the A430s. Employees didn't seem happy they missed it.

Not dead! Picked up a Samsung a400 for $25.44 today.

I too just scored this deal -- was so happy and surprised to get it this late in the game........ but I had to spy as an employee was digging through the storage above the shelves... had I not spotted it and asked him to pull it down I wouldn't have been so fortunate --

That is the same way I found mine :)

If anyone is selling their Canon A700, please PM me. I'm willing to pay a reasonable markup for it.

LMK how much you want for it.

Thanks.

UPC-A

EAN/UCC-13

lol how would you go about asking them to scan in a UPC that you printed off online ? :-0

heck, what makes you think they'd even do it for you? :P

[Flipper]

Came across one in Spruce Grove (AB) yesterday. Was pretty excited, thinking it was the $110 one. Sorry for bursting your bubble... >:(

I managed to get this for 149.44.

It didn't ring up in the till so I asked them to call another store for the price. So they did. The supervisor entered it into the system and I made my purchase!

Thanks!

[tonychouca]

I went to oshawa store,and saw they had Sony DCR-DVD92,asked co-worker scan the price for me,no price showed up.

can you scan or take a picture of your receipt for us.thanks.

[wolf30]

Is this store specific? I just came back from the rcss at dufferin & steeles and nothing was on sale.

[spyhero]

I got a demo Canon A700 for $69.44 + tax from RCSS. I want a smaller camera. I'm looking for someone with a Canon SD600/630 (or other SD series cameras) who is not happy about it and would like to trade for my A700. I'm willing to pay a reasonable difference for it. Thank you.

you must be kidding ?

[hytong]

No kidding, the SD series has always been smaller / look sleek than equivalent A series models. All of them at www.powershot.com

Sorry! I'm taking my request off the board now. I don't think I would want to break my arms and legs to do the trade. I think I'm better off with A700.

Are these deals still on? I went to a superstore tonight and I saw some Hp camera and also a MiniDV Sony video camera and the guy refused to scan the items. he said they weren't on sale anymore...

[cywhiz]

I went to two Superstores yesterday (Weston/401 and Dufferin/Steeles)...

They have lots of cameras in stock, but they are REGULAR prices...

The Weston/401 store still have
- Canon Selphy CP510 Printers ($39.99)
- Creative SBS Vivid 60 speakers blue/pink ($8.44)
- Camera bags

I did not buy anything because most of the good deals were gone! I WANT A CAMERA! >:(

[jande9]

Boy, after this last week at the Superstore, I just can't get very excited at the regular "Hot" sales on here.
What a ride.

[consumerPI]

Agreed.

Those Loblaws (Weston company) folks sure know how to have a sale. They put other sales to shame. None of this Sears and the Bay BS, i.e. 30-50% off every other week. When they say sale, they mean it.

I went on Wed and got the A700 for $69.44, a CP510 for $39.44 and the citizen 7" portable dvd for $49.44. This stuff is still out there if you look hard enough.

Nice if you give the location.
Others here are helping you by posting the dang deals. You just "search" and grab...

haha... must be for himself....:twisted:

he can't be sure it's not on sale. only way to find out is to check the scanned price...


seriously, i would've demanded to spk w/ his supervisor/mgr...

these are not reg. prices; they're clearance prices.
