I'm pretty we will. I can check this out tomorrow Don't expect a 150$OFF, but maybe 50$. I'll check this out with the Media guys.

Oh and by the way, if anyone wants a PS3 before X-Mas, we're selling over 15 on Friday morning. I'd suggest to arrive at 2-3ham if you want one. From what I know, all PS3s are the 60GB version (including WI-FI). No Wii so far

i was looking on ebay bidding went from 400$ to 700$ in like 2 min on an xbox with some games

WTF

So like I said depending on if your an NCM or Officer and your rank, you probably make at least $50,000 a year but most likely more. And depending on if you live at CFB Kingston your cost of living is probably very low as well, but even if you weren't cost of living in Kingston isn't that bad. Its only $30 which is cheaper than most nights at Stereo. Most of us on here who post about Stereo have put out probably hundreds and hundreds of dollars clubbing there just this year alone, and have never really complained for the most part. I know I sure as hell have.

yeah because Nintendo and Sony don't have enough Wii and PS3 to sell, Microsoft is making A LOT of money right now !

Every kids want a gaming console for X-Mas and the only one left is the X360.

The media guys don't think there will be a big rebate on the X360, but they might be wrong. We'll know more this weekend, but I ain't working on Sunday so if the news come out on Sunday, I won't be able to tell you

The best deal I've seen so far on the Xbox 360 was when the PS3 came out, on November 17th. Future Shop was having a one day deal, where for 449.99, you'd get the premium system with included Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter and Live Arcade: Unplugged games, in addition to Gears of War and Ridge Racer 6. Now, I don't know if we'll see a deal like that again any time soon, but I think boxing day would probably be that day. Stores already barely profit on the console (like 5$ maybe), so definitely count on salesmen trying to rape you with accessories and service plans on the 360 (which I recommend taking of course! )

Honestly I doubt the service plan is useful for the X360. PS3 might be because it's expensive and the Wii only because of the remotes. Even as an employee, I got 55% OFF on a service plan and I wouldn't get it for an X360...

I've been through two Xbox 360s already I guess it's just the luck of the draw. Knock on wood now though, because next thing you know, yours might die too :P

Yeah, I want a Wii as well, but I always miss the shipments. I went in to work this afternoon at 1 PM and apparently there had been a truck with 6 Wiis that came in earlier in the morning and they were all sold in the span of about 15 minutes.
