It was 499 Terry Fox Dr in Ottawa.

I grabbed a Canon EOS Rebel SL1 w/ EF-S 18-55mm IS Lens Kit for $199 in Burnaby today, still new in the box.
Not bad for an 18MP DSLR, plus it came with a 32GB SanDisk Extreme Plus SDHC card, Camera Bag & Cleaning kit.
Just went in to grab some razors, saw the sign, and completely forgot about grabbing the razors.

Yeah, I'm easily distracted by electronics, LOL!!!

Will check out my SDM store tomorrow

Great, now going to spend my day driving around to different SDMs to find this deal.

Really? Have a pic of the receipt? I wonder if anyone would pm that...seems like an incredible deal for the SL1.

Awesome deal for the SL1 but SDM electronics is so YMMV and few locations in Ontario even have the SL1 in stock. Usually they just have the Canon T5 and Nikon D3200. I have never seen a Canon SL1 kit at any SDM location in Ontario.

Don't buy one unless you plan on keeping it. You can't return cameras to SDM if you open them.

FWIW, I went to check my local SDM in Ontario (Saugeen Shores) and nothing was on clearance. So as was stated, this is highly YMMV.

Our local SDM has the worst electronics selections and they never go on clearance sale.

This varies of course but at some shoppers even if on sale the prices never change on the item even if on clearance. The Sony action camera was like that.....full price on sticker but when I asked to check price it was on clearance (this was a few months ago)

$200? HOT deal on the SL1 kit (basically a smaller less featured T5i) if you can find it. Add a 24mm f/2.8 pancake later and that's a great walkaround. A bit bigger than A6000+20mm pancake but much cheaper, plus used Canon lenses are everywhere.

Even if you can't return it, it'll easily sell for more used.

Aren't most SDM franchises so they may not always folllow corporate pricing?

SDM stores do not choose which stock they carry, it is Head office who sent out randomly. Head office fixes the price, however the store is allowed to sell it cheaper at loss.
