Future Shop Canada - Boxing Day Sales!

[The Guardian]

Web Deals: (starts at 8pm EST, Dec24th)

Samsung BD-P1400 $299
Sharp BDP $349 (yes these are good deals for Canada)

In store:

Panasonic 720p 42" Plasma $1000
Over 150 Blu-ray titles: $19.99


The sucky part (for us) is both sales have $99 HD DVD players with 2 free movies in box...

Nice find, I'll make sure to get some blu-ray

But anyway, I think they only offer 300 HD-DVD over the Quebec.. so perhaps we can expect maximum 1500 units over the Canada.. That's sucks but won't make a difference on the overall sales

[hardcore_canadian]

Web Deals Eh? Those Should be Good! I can still get them, considering I have to work that day, and hate Future Shop's Actual Stores with a Passion.

A&B sound is having an Absolute Blowout on Sony BDP-S1s, i know it's ghetto, but if you know anybdy that needs to pick one up, just entry lvel, we're looking at about 200 dollars a player! No actual price, once i find out today, I'll let everybody know!

its too bad that the Blu-rays for 19.99 are in-store only. but for sure ill be driving up there to pick up a couple. ill also be going to best buy and getting assassins creed for 39.99

[hardcore_canadian]

So apparently it's not the HD-A3 on sale for 99.99, it's the HD-D3, an hdmi equipped up converting dvd player, look up the flyer online and it says it right on top.

It's not only in store, you can order them off the site right now.

Checked in to this and it is an HD DVD player, not just an upconverter. It has the same chasis as the Walmart Venturer.

LMAO!!! It's there! A notice stating that it's not HD DVD, but an upconverting DVD player!

And HOLY BLOW-HOLE!!! I ALSO HAPPENED TO STUMBLE ON 'LOST SEASON 3' ON BLU-RAY FOR $24.99!!!! The bad news? They are currently out of stock. But, I was still able to get it for the price. Just have to wait... which is not a problem considering I haven't watched ANY of the episodes yet, but I took advantage of this one as I've been told that I have to watch it. I guess I'll have to wait for Seasons 1 & 2 to come on Blu-ray first though! LOL

Toshiba HD-A3 HD DVD Player
WebID:10094195

On page 1 of the Dec 26th flyer, the Toshiba HD-A3 HD DVD Player (10094195) is advertised at $99.99 save $300. This information is incorrect. The correct SKU that should be advertised is the Toshiba HD-D3 HD DVD Player (10095712)

It is a HD DVD player. But it only can go up to 1080i.

Well HD is 720,1080i,1080p.. don't what to be a *****, but more technical. Actually Sony started that whole FullHD logo and thing and now everone is using it. It's less complicated for Joe Potato to understand.

Wow excellent deal for lost 3! I just ordered it

The blu-ray 19,99$ selection is somehow ordinary..

[Shanester]

Futureshop.ca has Kingdom Of Heavan on sale for $19.99 but they're already sold out. wtf??. The sale isn't even 24hrs old yet

[Shanester]

For you Lost fans they have season three on sale for $24.99.

I was thinking of getting it but I have never seen seasons 1 or 2 so would I be totally confused??

Cheers!
