The SE210 is available online at FS for the sale price. 25 left in stock as of 11:50 xmas night.

Oh well it's not something I desperately need. If they have it tomorrow at the store I'll pick up a pair. If not then I'll save some money.

What really ticks me off is how the USB drives are more expensive than last year. 8GB last year at Futureshop was $12.99 and 16GB was $19.99. This year's 8GB is $19.99 everywhere.

I got a question though. Can I actually order something online at FS and if I do manage to get it tomorrow in the store, then can I cancel the order? In other words, when do they process the order?

I hear the 210s are a bit low on the bass side of things while being awesome at the rest and the headroom.com frequency response graph seems to prove it. Otherwise I would have jumped on them ASAP at that price.

midnight_r 12-26-2009 12:04 AM

...ok here is my 2 cents...

there is no such a thing as boxing day sweet deal lol unless you stand in line for 12 hours like a crackhead in cold!! to get free t-shirt or 1$ item as a surprise gift !

wait till January, uhmm let say 4th to get "after boxing day" sale.
"last year" products which will have to be sold for new products to appear on shelves...hope you get my drift/


then again, I met this hotchick in line up 6 years ago (bought shiitnothing..)@ a&b sound. I guess it was worth it since we hooked up that nite lol

midnight_r 12-26-2009 12:07 AM

btw is anyone aware of any deals @ apple store on i7 27inch imac?!?!


=)

There were around 60+ people lined up at the Richmond London Drugs, mostly middle-aged to elderly Chinese and Middle-Eastern. When the doors opened, they went berserk on Ferrero Rocher and other chocolates. Single people were buying cartfuls or several baskets full of chocolate... It was quite the sight

Lindt chocolate at Sears is really good deal. 50% off. You can get it for like $2-3 for 100g. Additional $10 off if you join the Sears card club which is free and has no annual fee.

roastpuff 12-26-2009 10:37 AM

I have to head to work at London Drugs now. This is going to suck.

spoon.ek9 12-26-2009 10:44 AM

Thats just dumb....to me that means the value they put on their time is LOW... outrageously low.....what do they save? $40? wow..

JKam 12-26-2009 12:17 PM

C-Lai's don't do anything so their time is unlimited therefore of no value.

Got to EBGames in Guildford at 8, and there were like 7 people waiting. They didn't open until 9 so with my brother in line, I managed to get a Nike Canada hoodie from Champs across the way for 20 bucks down from 70. When they DID open (and about 100 people behind my bro and I), got NHL 09 and Army of Two for 20, and a couple of bargain bin games for 5.

Other than a cheap AE hoodie that I can work in, and a cheap 21mm socket at Sears, most of the "deals" I saw were garbage. Tried to putter around for headphones, but selection sucked. Not gonna bother with FS/BB since a friend told me it was packed.

Regarding headphones, anyone know of a decent pair for around 20 bucks? There's a topic for it in Tech already, but with boxing day right now, maybe someone knows of some.

bob_chan 12-26-2009 01:18 PM

Got CODMW2 for $30 bucks and an apple iphone headphones and mic for $9 from HMV

JordanLee 12-26-2009 01:28 PM

Went to Dutil to with their requirement of "the smallest wrapped christmas present gets 50% off any pair of jeans" and got me self a pair of APC New Standards for 100 bones. Was first in line from 330AM to 10 in Gastown lol..

that just kinda proves how weak the sales this year are..last few years at 4am there'd be at least 150 to 200 ppl lining up already at both locations..
