Preferably in a local brick in mortar store. Best Buy, Futureshop, Camera Canada.com, and my local camera stores (bc camera) seem to be selling it for $350-360. I also checked http://www.photoprice.ca/price-drops/ but no success. During the BB/FS customer appreciation sale a few weeks back, it went down to $320. With summer coming up, I really want to get one at a decent price so I don't miss out. (I should have bought it @ $320) Anyone know where I can get a new one on sale? (I'm not a fan of going used just in case I get a bad copy)

Thanks folks. Just to close the thread I got Futureshop to pricematch it with Newegg.ca for $306 (they didn't charge shipping). Odd thing is Newegg no longer has the lens listed and they only have 4 Canon lenses now.:confused:
