I would just like to add my 2 cents regarding the playstation monitor. I purchased one about a month ago when they were 149 to use as a monitor and after using it for a few days, I took it back. I'm sure for console games it is fine, however as a pc monitor it is quite terrible. There is a *ton* of ghosting and lag when playing faster fps or action type games and such. Also, do not be fooled by the 240hz tag. It's locked to 60hz as a monitor. Also, nvidia has removed any kind of 3d support with the 3.xx series of drivers which are required for any newer card (600 series and up) so that wont work either. You can watch 3d videos off of youtube and stuff but thats about it.
Obviously, feel free to try it out, but it's just a heads up based on my experience with it.

All I wanted was a good deal on a PS vita. Instead, BB and FS claim the Vita bundle for 249.99 is a "sale" - funny, it has been that price for weeks

Yes, I'm so incredibly confused at whatever kind of stunt best buy/futureshop are trying to pull this boxing day.billymadison wrote: ↑All I wanted was a good deal on a PS vita. Instead, BB and FS claim the Vita bundle for 249.99 is a "sale" - funny, it has been that price for weeks

I'm sure it's been brought up but I don't get the Samsung Tab 2, it was cheaper a week ago. I was expecting it to be $99. :/
Samsung vs Polk Audio SOUNDBARS, any RFD have it and is worth the sale price?

All they did was add a second crappy game to the bundle. I just want the PS Vita on it's own for a good price.billymadison wrote: ↑All I wanted was a good deal on a PS vita. Instead, BB and FS claim the Vita bundle for 249.99 is a "sale" - funny, it has been that price for weeks

No good deals, but thanks for posting RFD. It's cool to have a site like this that can offer previews for sales. Now I know I can spend time with family and not fight crowds at the big stores.

The Vita bundle was 199 everywhere for Black Friday. Came with a 25$ GIft card at ncix making it 175. Then there was the 179$ Assassins Creed White Vita that came with an extra game and some other stuff.billymadison wrote: ↑All I wanted was a good deal on a PS vita.

249 is regular price....except it comes with an extra $20 game which to them means "sale" apparently.

Sony KDL60EX645 LED $1379.99 (Futureshop)
Any updates as to how a good a deal this may be? Any other 60" options that I should consider?
How about delivery? Is it free or is there a charge as it is a large item?

It's almost insulting. I feel this year more than others I'm being fed a line about how good the prices are when they haven;t changed at all.
My nick doesn't mean I'm happy any more than yours means you're a sex machine.

The only good deal for me is the $50 itunes cards for $39. Gonna have my friend priced matched 5 cards at her wally world store for $35.10 each! This should last me a year.

Yup, I mean, at least have one amazing deal to draw people to the store. That 43" samsung plasma last boxing day for $299 was incredible.Happy13178 wrote: ↑It's almost insulting. I feel this year more than others I'm being fed a line about how good the prices are when they haven;t changed at all.

Anyone know if that Canon Camcorder is worth the price/bundle? Not sure if its the same one at Best Buy for $299.99.
I assume this is the one in the flyer? http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/ ... 5355b4en02 PLUS the bag + battery in the bundle I take it?
Price of the camcorder itself is $449.99 on sale vs $499.99 regular price.
Edit: NVM, the BB one has a 8GB built in storage vs 32GB: http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/can ... 292d6den02

I'm disappointed neither BB or FS have good GPS sales. In fact, no other retailer seems to have decent sales either. what is up with this years BD?
BTW, is the $279.99 Lenovo laptop listed on their on line flyer decent? I realize it's not a power house and refurbished to boot but I'm only looking for something to handle light daily tasks such as emailing, wed browsing, downloads etc.

Quick question: usually which time first round people left the store(those who really want to get a deal)? I am trying to get Xbox 250 G for 199, it is same price everywhere, so don''t expect it will be sold out soon. is it 10 am good enough?

Best Buy owns Future Shop, thus I'm not sure why people expect any meaningful competition between the two.SuperStarDynex wrote: ↑this is price fixing at its finest.

Im actually kind of excited that this year I will finally be spending the day at home instead of navigating through the crowds at the stores.
On another sidenote, I had no idea Future shop sold Whey Protein lol
