I headed over to a future shop in Waterloo today @ 2 and it was busy but not too bad. Some of the staff were saying people had lined up at midnight to get in there.
No real great deals. I got a new 42" Samsung DLP HDTV but I don't think I saved that much...maybe $500.00 but that's it. |
my dad picked up a 19" lcd from compusmart...saved about 200-ish i think. at least he's happy. |

I found some good clothes on sale today at Club Monaco and Urban Planet. |
Club Monaco is so played out. I think they're gonna go bankrupt soon. |

To really find out how much you save...go back in a couple of months and see how much the same thing is selling for.
On another note....there is nothing I hate more then the sales people begging for you to buy the extended warranty.
For a 5 year extended warranty on the TV it would cost $348.00. I told the guy I didn't want it. He comes back and says his manager doesn't want anyone buying such a purchase without a warranty so they would give me the warranty for $148.00.
I told him if he wants me to have the warranty I will take it for free then. The sales guy didn't think that was funny. After speaking with the manager I was able to get the warranty for free. |

I didn't go boxing day shopping this year. I had planned on it but my mom got called into work (we always go boxing day shopping) so I passed on it. I hate shopping by myself because I either spend too much or nothing at all. I like a 2nd opinion...for the most part. :p And most of my friends had family stuff to do.
So I'm goin out tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be able to find something!

| Shopping alone on boxing day is the ... in and out asap. Don't have to waste time going to your friend's store when they can't make up their minds. |

This goes for any kind of shopping in general. Going with someone else doubles your shopping time. I HATE shopping, so going with someone else is really pointless. |

Good point. Boxing Day is when the vendors decide they want to start getting rid of their old stuff, but if they haven't sold it a few months later, that is when they will want to -finish- getting rid of it. |
