Great Sale at FutureShop!!

[richdvd]

Starting this morning...all FutureShop stores in Canada have the Maxell 10 pks of -R or +R for $14.99. The -R are the nice Made in Japan yellow ones. I have never seen them this cheap before!

CAN$ 14.99 = US$ 11.40 !!!

Whoa! Ship some down here!

Yup. The -R are MXL RG02. Excellent.

The +R are RicohJPNR01. Excellent as well.

Good deal. But this is nothing new. They had the 5 pack for 7.99 a while back. Memorex has been at 7.99 at a 5 pack forever (the +R are Ricoh as well).

What i am waiting for is one of the crazy ass sales they have down in the States, eg. in Office depot or staples etc. We never have those here in Canada.

Stupid Futureshop!

Lol.. dont for the 7%GST and another 8% PST. In my province its 15% HST. So you really end up paying a bit more than expected.

Friggin Canadian taxes are through the roof. But then, we have healthcare.

I find Staples and Office Depot to be really expensive here (Canada) for media. You're right, we never have any good sales at either one.

So do we. It's called vodka.

15% tax? Man, and I thought 8.1% here was excessive.

I'd just like to reply-bump this topic because it's a great deal for canadians. I went out and bought 2 packs yesterday (I'm not a heavy user), and I might go get more. They're 4x, too!

It's funny. You have the 5-pack at 12.99 right next to the 10-pack at 14.99 .

Anyway, the box pack says Made In Japan, but I didn't see any info about the media model (MXL RG02 or RicohJPNR01, according to one of the previous posters). How does the newbie find out which model it is?

Take someone else's word for it or buy one and test it with DVDinfopro.
