http://pressroom.target.ca/news/questions-answers Will you honor gift cards? Target Canada will continue to accept gift cards through the liquidation period.

I'll really miss Target. I was excited they were coming and they fulfilled my biggest hope -- that they'd implement their (smart) clearance practices here. Great way to move stuff off the shelves... and I got a lot of deals, as well as doing a lot of regular shopping there. Unfortunately I...

They had $10 off selected Nintendo stuff as a flyer sale last week...

Unfortunately Target's flyers run Friday-Thursday, so that deal will be over.

*In Red Deer. ;) Seriously, some Future Shops are great. Others are terrible. I have one near my house I'm generally happy with. There's a location near my work that I absolutely hate. One time an associate there wouldn't honour a coupon because the game I was buying was on sale. More recently...

That's crappy. I was fortunate to grab the last copy of Black Ops at a local store -- a couple of other games on the list I'm interested in, including Batman (which I want to play through a second time). Not holding out much hope for those.

Yeah, based on RFD, sounds like they updated the list yesterday. A lot of the older stuff hit the cutting room floor, it sounds like.

No, I think he was saying it's the version that supports guitar only -- there's a newer release that supports guitar and bass.

Damn you Naylord... :) I was thinking about springing on a new hard drive for my existing PS3, but I had thought about buying a second with a larger drive instead. I was comparing cost between drive and full-price console... may be worth waiting.

Yeah, I've been weighing this question too... Bottom line for me is I've got a ton of stuff to play, but if I didn't I'm not sure the software is enough yet (and there's no big-time killer app for me at this point) and I'd like it to be a little cheaper. For the record, the 3G version is...

Not entirely clear on this front, is it? Seems kinda dicey to me, though, since they use the phrase "to spend in November" So it's either time limited or they need to get an editor :) EDIT: Seems pretty clear their community manager people have no clue, either, because the question is asked...

We all know what some shoppers can be like, so I can understand a retail worker's irritation at that, although that was uncalled for Still, a comment like that was deserving of a retort about how that sort of service is what will ensure no one will miss Sears when it's gone in five years' time.

Looks like any scamming will be short-lived. Wii Play is showing up at $48 again, even for Calgary Macleod.

Batman deal at Future Shop is just the vanilla version, I imagine?

Regarding Wii Party, the price is $20 -- my Staples is just awful at marking stuff down. Bought it and then saw it a few days later for $15 at RCSS. Oh well. Would buy it and return it to Staples, but not sure I still have that receipt.
