Well we weren't going to get sucked in to the Black Friday bonanza....

...But we changed our minds!

All of our car audio, electronics, alarms and starters are on sale today only.
We're talking at, below or slightly above cost on ALL of our gear. If you are in the market for car electronics, come and see Mike at our Coquitlam location only and he'll hook y'all up! /shamelessplug

I've never seen a set of AAA batteries by themselves with a charger, but there's the Eneloop set at NCIX for $19:

Sanyo Eneloop Rechargeable Battery Charger AA 4 Pack and AAA 2 Pack


Double the batteries and charger for slightly more (better deal, imo)

Very impressed with Target as well. Used shopping carts to form a nice line so it wouldn't be a cluster**** once the doors opened, handed out starbucks coffee and handed out maps to where the doorcrashers were located. Had the large item carts lined up nearby for people buying the 50" TV too

^I don't see why not. The worst that can happen here is that they don't have what you're looking for.

If you mean heading down to the US, then unless you've seen a door crasher with what you're looking for, they probably have whatever you want.


As an aside: I wonder if employees get any compensation for working BF. IIRC Boxing Day here is dependent on the employer regarding extra pay. I'm not sure I'd want to show up to work for retail at certain places for BF:

I was like what do you expect?
i left work at 630am, and there was 1 line, it started around 3/4am. there was also notes on the other outside doors saying where to line up. gong show would of been due to shoppers, or the next shift of workers. im sure i know which one it is though lol

lots of good deal to be had. Thankfully when we got to Walmart last night at 8:30pm the rush was pretty much over for the door crashers. We managed to get almost all of our Christmas shopping done.
Almost bought the Vizio 60" LED smart TV for $688. But decided we do not need it.

Yvr - china roundtrip at $388

Vancouver to China - $388 roundtrip including taxes | mistake fares

The price is noted as an error. But if u can catch this error in time, why not take advantage.

^if you count Bellingham as local, Costco has it on sale for something like 360. Even with tax and exchange, it's much cheaper than getting it here.
