I think everyone 'won' this. Here's the mass email they sent out with the discount code.

Haha, it's like those car alarms that everyone "wins" at the auto shows.

"Wow guys, I won a free car alarm system in that raffle, all I have to do is pay $99 installation!". "Yeah, me too" "Yeah I won that as...........wait a minute".

Just drove past Crossiron. Mall parking traffic is backing up the hiway, and people are parking on the grass.

Picked up an electric impact driver from crappy tire for $70. Should save 10 minutes and a bunch of grunting from every seasonal tire change.

Boxing Day sales don't seem to be as good as they used to be in the past.

I saw that too coming home from Red Deer. I can't imagine saving enough money to make that worthwhile.

South center was . . . is packed. I went there to meet a friend and there is some parking, but the line ups in places like EB Games and HMV are psycho.

I'm leaving town for the next couple of days, I'll come back early next week and pick over the corpses like a vulture.

Thanks for the tip. Bought them on my iPad without even getting out of bed. Could be my only Boxing Day purchase this year...

Abominable only 10% off skis today. Think I'll wait until the summer.

Not bad if someone's looking for a specific model though. Usually not much for discounts early (or during) the season.

If you're looking for men's clothing, Harry Rosen has a surprisingly good boxing day sale for the next couple days. Can do all the shopping online and avoid the mess.

Accurate review of Wal-Mart, however unintentional.

I'm thinking of heading to the mall (Chinook) tomorrow to pick up at day calendar - at 50% off. Any idea if it will be quieter by tomorrow, or still madness?

Bought the headphones.
