    Default The "What did you buy on Boxing Day" Thread

    So while i woke up to get to Best Buy / FutureShop @ 6:30 AM, seems there were tons more that got there before me.

    Got Rainbow Six Vegas for $40, and some older 360 games that were $20.

    Age of Empires III + Expans for $40 with BF2142 for $30.

    While i was waiting in line at Best Buy, i saw this one guy with like 10 copies of World of Warcraft.

    Then @ Future Shop the guy in front of me figures he wants to pay for his items seperately. After that another went to the wrong line so they put him in front of me, and he takes 20 minutes to pay for his stuff. Did i mention they take, literally, a few minutes to print out the receipt?

    So share you Boxing Day Purchases and experiences.

    I just got some clothes, but am going to head out to some more stores to possibly pick up some games or dvds along with some more clothes.

    I drove by chinook when leaving Future shop and let me tell you ... you have every reason to be scared. No amount of savings could make me deal with the traffic there right now.

    Oh they are quite busy. The good stores have mega lineups also, but it is somewhat worth it i guess.

    Be scared. Be very scared. The shoppers are rabid today.

    I had a lady push me (push, not shove, nudge, or bump. The bitch pushed) to get in front of me in line.

    Purchased:

    4 gig flash drive
    2 X 1 gig SD cards
    1 gig flash drive
    8 cans of peach halves

    Mexx has EVERYTHING at 50% off BTW.

    Was he paying by credit card? Imagine how many transactions are going on right now with Visa. Thats why it is so slow, everyone is buying stuff.

    I went to FS at 7:30 and bought my 360. Pretty sweet stuff. Going out to find a Nixon watch a little later.

    I remember browns was up to 70% off, not off the stuff i was looking at though.
    BR had some decent deals I believe, most of the stuff was on sale. Cant say if it was that great or not as I havnt been there in awhile.
