Wanted to check that Sears PS3 deal now, but some assholes that were moving in today also decided to BLOCK my parking space with their moving truck. They even had the audacity to "offer" to get my car out with the shoebox of a space margin they left. I don't know who the fuck you are yet you want to drive my car? :fuckthatshit:
Way to welcome yourselves into the neighborhood, assholes. Fantastic fucking time to move in.

Was at Old Navy at 3am. Spent $40 and got a free Kodak HD video camera then came straight home to pass out.
Not a bad little thing. Thought it'd be a refurb or something made in like 2008 and was suprised to find out that its MFG date is 2011.11

LOL lined up at adidas on granville for a good 45 mins at least, 50% off lowest price but most of the sizes were gone, ended up just getting a pair of ransom boots and a $9 after discount tee.
Also ended up getting that head unit from visions for $260 (incl 2 year replacement warranty) it's one of those "if you don't use it you get it back" warranties but 99% chance I'll forget about it... They didn't have it in stock at both the marine drive and burnaby locations but burnaby at least offered to order it in for me. Overall I feel a little raped because the overall service at both locations was horrible, it seems like they hire the trashiest people possible and makes FS/BB staff look like the salt of the earth in comparison. I admit I caught them on probably one of the worst days of the year to be working in retail but still... employees over at FS seemed to handle it fine and every other store I went to today.

I find plasma's aren't consistent for gaming as the blacks are REALLY true black. LED is far better IMO. I have both.

if you want anything from best buy that was in the flyer, go to the stores at the malls. The one at Queensborough said they always have limited stock b/c they are a low volume store. We went to the Lansdowne store and found the GPS we wanted with plenty of stock. The store at Queensborough sold out fast.

I bought my Plasma today and I found it outstanding. My parents bought an LED, it's hard to explain but the picture looks very fake. I know the back ground is fake say in the grinch, but it just looks extra fake on their led and I have a hard time watching tv on it.. Maybe it's set up wrong or something.

I know what you mean, there's a setting to change that. If you play scary ass games or something like Red Dead Redemption it's impossible to see anything when it's supposed to be dark as the blacks are literally black and the contrast is naturally high on plasma's. Then when you change the brightness/contrast it won't look natural. I find plasma's are excellent for movies though. Smooth like a baby's bottom with true colors.

Thinking of grabbing the sony playstation 3d tv to use as a computer monitor and gaming tv
Spent 12 hours all over metro Van, mostly at Metrotown and Pacific Centre. Actually wasn't too bad..I almost expected worse. There were lineups at a lot of stores though. Just ended up buying a bunch of clothes. Sales were kinda shitty.
I bought the 55' led samsung !
Today was the best experience I had with Future Shop. The sales guy was nice enough to bring the TV out of the store and load it into my vehicle. He was a younger kid, probably a seasonal sales guy. I tipped him $10 and he refused to take it at first but eventually took it.
Overall good boxing day.

Not much this year, but everything went smooth sailing in Vancouver atleast. Avoided malls other than Brentwood for grabbing Ass Creed for 20 bucks. Then GT5 at Walmart for 20 bucks. A copy of Kaspersky Internet Security for 20. Grabbed the 16GB Class 10 SD card by Sandisk from Futureshop for 25, then went to Best buy and grabbed a copy of Fast Five for 13. Since I was around the area, I decided to pop into Livestock to check out the sales and got a pair of Puma Dallas for $50.
Went home, forgot I had to go to Imperial Hobbies. Jumped back in my car and drove to Richmond. Curse throughout the whole time while I was driving on No.3. Finally got to Imperial hobbies, place was a Zoo and they ran out of Tamiya side cutters/snippers. :okay: Left that place then went to Staples then Ikea.
Spent 20 mins looking for parking at IKEA. People don't fucking obey the arrows when they're in the parking lot so i was raging like a mad cow. While i was looking for parking I saw Diggy. Was quite amused with his hair still in the signature shape while the rain was falling down hard. Anyway, bought 2 fucking hot dogs and a drink. :fuckyea:

Don't think I've seen "hunting knife" and "leatherman" used together. Ever.

Call this number to cancel if you still want to: 1 866 853 1168.
I also ordered from Best Buy. When I called their customer service they gave me the same BS "oh your order has shipped... we can't do anything". So I called this number and they cancelled it no problem.
I already received the email saying the order has been stopped and I will see the refund in 3-5 days on my credit card.

Different strokes, different folks. Playbook does web surfing better than Ipad's especially with flash support. For those that have a Blackberry, adding the Playbook tablet with the bridge function is perfect, no need for wifi or additional data plan and all your berry is bridged to the tablet. Also for those that use their berrys and/or Playbooks for work, RIM encryption is far greater than any other and the smaller size of the Playbook makes it easier to carry around for work.
There are some things that the Playbook doesn't do as well as Droid or Apple tablets, ie.. Apps, but every person has a different need. I have 4 Playbooks now, mostly for work, we tried using the IPads for work but they were a disaster and tossed them. I also have a Touchpad and Transformer and I'd say Playbook and Transformer are my favorite ones.

I'd consider the playbook now as they dropped the price. When I first saw it in stores, it was within $100 of the ipad, and I knew it to be doomed.
We can sit and debate about what tab is better, but in the minds of average consumers there is ipad on one side, and everyone else on the other. Not a bad position for apple to be in. Kudos.
But seriously, for $200 you are in an entry level playbook, that as it has been pointed out, could tether to your bb phone. Not a bad deal. If I'm walking out the door with a near or $500 tablet, its gonna be an apple or transformer.

should be rephrased to, everyone knows what Apple products are... but only 50% of the world knows about other tech..
and i hate it when i mention to a non techie that im looking at "insert electronic device" and they say, oh yea, i have an Apple "insert device here" too...

I just got an ipad2 not that i don't know toher tablets out there. Just that itune have a lot more free sowftware and is super easy to find the programs u need. Other tablets do have something like itunes but not as much software and some of them is hard to sort.
Also with Ipads their resale values stays pretty high vs Playbook or other tablets. If I do ever want to sell I cans till get a decent amount back.

Call this number to cancel if you still want to: 1 866 853 1168.
I also ordered from Best Buy. When I called their customer service they gave me the same BS "oh your order has shipped... we can't do anything". So I called this number and they cancelled it no problem.
I already received the email saying the order has been stopped and I will see the refund in 3-5 days on my credit card.
i wonder if there's a similar line for futureshop...i hate it when they give you that BS that is has already been processed and soon to ship...

Wasn't even planning on buying another TV, but when I saw that 43" Samsung plasma for $299, I said screw it and bought another one.
Three big screen TVs in 1400sqft... too much? :considered:

seriously, who the fuck wants a playbook when there are 10000x better tablets out there
If you can find another tablet for $200 that works as well as the Playbook does then please let me know. Otherwise stfu please it's like saying why is everyone buying corolla's when there's better cars like BMW's out there. You need to understand that while the Playbook may not be on par with some other tablets it still does what it provides well and for some people that's all they need. Plus the fact that not everyone has $500+ to just fork out on something. I swear some of you idiots spend your days searching for Playbook threads and come in and just shit all over it. I respect that everyone has their opinions but at least post comments/arguments that make sense.

Honestly, I'm finding 3 TVs isn't enough, I'm always trying to keep track of at least 4 or 5 games at once on Sundays, maybe a sign I'm in too many football pools and bets? lol fuck.

If you can find another tablet for $200 that works as well as the Playbook does then please let me know.
Another thing to remember is the Playbook was not intended to be a $200 tablet. I wouldn't have ever paid it's initial asking price, but for $200, I can take it as it is and be very satisfied with my purchase.

My Futureshop order is still is processing. I did order online at Futureshop a day later though.
just be careful if u guys are getting expensive items shipped to ur door even with a no safe drop note. the postmen tend to still just drop it off at ur front door regardless if ur home or not.

I bought the $799 47inch LG 3D LED TV yesterday after thinking about it all week. Now I'm having second thoughts because I just remembered I'm spending the next two months house sitting and wont be home to enjoy it. I'm thinking about returning it and just keeping my eye out for better deals since this was only $200 off. What do you guys think.
