If anyone is in the market for an excellent set of over-the-ear headphones (wired) Kefstore.ca has their KEF M500 on sale from $327 CAD to $199 CAD. I auditioned them a few months back and they were amazing. Glad I waited for them to go on sale.

I'd recommend the Wifi model.. I have the BT and I wish I sprung more on the last black friday for the wifi. Its not necessary, but once you start using it more often, the wifi becomes convienient.. Bluetooth signal has such a short distance in a home.

Just went to Canadian tire not thinking about the sale, fucking shit show at the newton one. Like 70+ people in line.

Was going to buy some long auger bits for $20 down from $59 but when I saw the line said fuck it.

Canadian Tire always has the same items for sale all the time, i bet you the boxing week sale when its less hectic will have the same items on sale.. The few tool sets and impact gun I have from there I see on sale 3-4 times yearly.

Unless its seasonal.

^^ The Samsung one is UHS-3 while the SanDisk one is UHS-1 though, so they aren't identical.

Still, I'd say both are good deals.

Bear in mind that SanDisk voids the warranty on their Ultra line (and possibly Extreme also) of SD cards when you use it in a dashcam. Also, I seem to recall that SanDisk cards run into more frequent problems with dashcams.

With SanDisk, their recommended cards for dashcam usage is their High Endurance line.

What car? I can find just about any car for sales except for an e46 non m.

Bilstein Canada / Tdot Performance only has 10% off

Valiants Racing has some good sales
Garage16 if you got a Honda
Tuner Sports has a large selection and sales

Edit: Please let me know if anyone has any leads on e46/BMW mods
