HUGE sales at Amazon.com
I figured they would have some great prices, but I was able to finish my Seinfeld DVDs at only $14.99 a piece (US dollars of course...so keep that in mind). And I was able to finish the Cosby show DVDs that I need at $9.99!
Here's the link to the Black Friday sales:

But make sure to just search, because many many great deals are hiding.
Can't wait to get my dvds

Yeah, I was over at .ca and the prices are still much more expensive with our floundering dollar at .com. It's a little odd that .ca wouldn't follow with some cheaper prices. Half of the time, they don't even have the DVDs I want, unless you want to buy them used from other users.
Season 9 of Seinfeld at .ca is $47.96 and at .com it's $14.99. And then $51.99 of the Cosby show I wanted and at .com it's $9.99!
And the thing is, don't they come from the same warehouse?

I used to make that run, once you hit Nome its smooth sailing. As long as the Dogs dont get you in your sleep that is.

I got the Oh By The Way Pink Floyd box set last week off amazon.ca. I think it was $159CDN vs $199US.
It was $40 cheaper than .com, and that is in CDN $ and I got free shipping.
All 14 studio albums, including soundtracks, in mini vinyl sleeves, with original packaging (the black bag on WYWH) with the original post cards, stickers and posters, miniturized of course. And a new poster by Storm Thurgeson of all their album covers.

Claymores are not on Amazon. You have to go Army surplus for that kind of product....

Looks like outside of books/dvd's, they've locked the canadians out of these sales. Take a look at the heavily discounted xbox games (like shaun white) - you can't buy those, BUT you can buy the xbox games that are like 3 dollars off (left 4 dead)......
...and alot of those products that you might be able to buy on the .ca site, for full price, won't even make it before christmas.
RACISM I tells you!

Yeah, I managed to get the 3 Seinfeld seasons I needed. Based on their prices at futureshop, I saved $85 on them!
