I'm waiting for the day they decide to amalgamate the points. Hmmmmmm...........maybe not. Double dipping is great, hee hee.

edit: Requires a tradein to get it to $229. It's $329 regular price.

Same here. My Nexus 4 is going to die any day now. Was going to upgrade a month ago, but decided to wait and see if I could score any good deals through Fido on Black Friday. Patiently waiting....

Is the PS4 cheaper at Wal-Mart than Best Buy? Does anyone know if they open midnight or will it be normal hours?

Thanks!

Basic membership only allows towing to a max of 5km. Plus membership is 160km, which is what most people use it for. If you're prone to dead batteries then the basic is good as you still get the 4 roadside assistance, but if you're stuck in Squamish a tow back to town could cost way more than the Plus membership.

For those looking to get an Xbox one or PS4 this weekend, Superstore has a better deal as its the same price as best Buy plus there's no tax and you get a $25 gift card on the Xbox! Also, most of the game deals can be had on the XBL store or PS store for cheaper as digital downloads on black friday

Yup, that's the worst part, but still helps. Plus, not much else to get besides electronics.

Has anyone seen any deals for Surface Pro 3 or Surface Pro 4?

All the stuff I'm seeing is in the states and at 33% exchange

^ you can sell them privately for a lot more than that...

I'm tempted by the XB1/PS4 offers but I have a feeling that's just a conveniently timed permanent price drop so I'm not rushing any more than I was before to get them. I find it funny that the price is less than what a lot of people are asking for used ones though.

What I do need is a new internal HDD, so I'll be keeping an eye on NCIX.
