OP should of mention it's probably part of Quebec flyer that doesn't start elsewhere in Canada till this coming Thursday. As they run there sales alittle head of the rest of Canada.
I don't fing buy xbl gold for the GWG, if I did I'd be sorely disappointed lol... I buy it bc I like to be able to join partys play mp games and get dotw gold discounts. I feel like we are paying more because of our dollar. It's been $40 cdn in past years for 12 months of xbl gold.

1. I'am not sure that Québec is on some sort of special calendar for its Walmart flyers, as far as I know Xmas is on the 25th of December here in QC like everywhere else
2. As the OP, am I suppose to be aware of this special one week early WM secret society? First rule of of OWEWMSS... Don't talk about OWEWMSS

Yeah, think I'll just do likewise and figure out what to do with the $15 credit at a later date. Makes the PS4 useful for something again...zod wrote: ↑Yah I bought 4 of those. It makes my psn sub really cheap. The cheapest filler item I could find was 49 cents (an avatar). Two years of PSN is 99.98 plus 49 cents is 100.47. I only paid 80 for the $100 of credit plus I get 15 back because of the current promo (you get $15 credit back for spending $100). So that's $65.47 for two years of PSN. That's a pretty good deal. That's all you do with PSN. Once a year someone usually posts a deal on psn credit. Load up, then wait for the get $15 if you spend $100 sale. Make your own deal kind of thing.

It's not too much, really, but it's sad if this is considered a hot deal. It's great for a regular price deal (this is what CostCo was selling them for at regular price up until recently, if it's to be believed that they're out of the game now. I didn't check the last time I went a week or so ago, but 3-4 weeks ago they did indeed still have them at Mississauga South). But last year, even with the crappy Canadian dollar, there were still a bunch of deals (3-4 times if I'm not mistaken) for under $40CAD after conversion via CDKeys.

the last sale was in September/October I think. so 4-5 months without any deal has me tempted to pick one up next week when they go on sale(if true). before the dollar tanked it felt like gold was always on sale to some extent.

End of November. But yeah, it's been a while since CDKeys has had a sale. I'm still good till January 2017, thankfully, but if you need a code in the next month or two, it's hard to say when CDKeys will be having their next sale so this Walmart deal (if it shows up in this week's flyer) might be the best option.

well they are, and sales often start on wednesday (instead of friday) and stores usually update prices early.
and as for what weekly flyer sales and december 25th have to do with each other.... I'll just chock up to you not having your coffee.

I'm guessing it was some kind of reference to XMas sales starting at the same time in Quebec as everywhere else? But yeah, around these parts it's pretty well known that Quebec's Walmarts often start their sales earlier than the rest of the country, even if OP didn't necessarily know it.

costco is getting out of a lot of areas, and their retail model will really change in the coming years.acidcaribou wrote: ↑I returned a PS+ card to Costco (because I picked up the Staples deal), and was told they aren't selling them anymore.
It's probably the same with XBL, so I think Costco is out of the business.
they used to be a "we make money on our memberships" but they will slowly morph into selling higher-profit items and losing the selection.

You mean like Sams club Canada? Why bother with the membership then? Worst thing about costco is the crowds,lines and the parking lot. Why pay $5 bucks a month for the hassle.

Is this actually on right now in Ontario or was it Quebec only?
