Vita Mix Blender at Costo and CNE

[Bettafree]

I've heard that Vitamix is at select Costco's for $499 and was wondering if anyone has recently seen stock at a location in Toronto?

I also know they have display at the CNE. Can anyone confirm price there? Is it better than $499 Costco?

I was thinking you newly signed up and was going to point out that this isn't the forum for seeking deals but only for posting hot deals..... then I realized you have been here since 2005.....

Well it is still a Deal thread because I know you can get the blender at the CNE which is only on until the Sept 7th. This isn't exactly an easy product to come by if you want to pick one up in person.

And Costco always has a rotating display for $499 which is better than the $579 Vita Mix charges on their site. I just don't know exactly which one. I know they were in Calgary up until 8/16.

They have a booth setup in the Direct Energy Centre and are selling them "starting at $579 plus tax". The demo was interesting but I wasn't buying so I didn't dig for any deals.
