I hate waiting and I’m sure most of you do too, especially after that disappointing Dell Sale we had this week. This information is freely available on the Futureshop website, and isn’t insider information. If Futureshop didn’t want it out, they wouldn’t make it public. So far none of the items look tempting to me personally. Coming from a retail background these items are essentially for stock movement. It appears they around at cost + shipping.
Friday, June 10th: Athena Micra 6 Speaker Package $299, SAVE 400.
Saturday, June 11th: Minitek Portable DVD Player $139, SAVE $60.
Sunday, June 12th: Mercury 512MB MP3 Player, with FM $129, SAVE $50.
Monday, June 13th: HP 100PK CD-R $24, SAVE $35
Tuedsay, June 14th: To be determined
Wednesday, June 16th: To be determined
Thursday, Wednesday June 17th: To be determined.
DAY 2: Mintek MDP-5861 Portable DVD Player $139.99

"The Mintek MDP-5861 Portable DVD Player is great to take with you while you travel or simply while you are on the go! It comes with a clear 5" TFT screen and offers a beautiful 4:3 aspect ratio".
This thread will be updated when new product information is available.

Thanks for posting this as I missed it the first time. I predict this thread will be gone pretty quick though. :(
Out of curiosity how did you get this info?

I mean really hardly had to search for that thread. ;)This is a mega thread, which will hold all the seven days of sales. Since they are being announced in this thread, there's no need for "WHATS TOMMOROW OMG" "OMG TOMORROW I HOPE IT'S A LCD". Judging by your previous posts, consider trolling a little less. Thanks.

The purpose of this thread is to show the deals for all 7 days without having to wait. The other only shows the deal for that one day.

Hey admin's, what happened to the thread that showed the next 4 days of deals? It seems to have disappeared? :confused:
FS called us. Official statement is coming. Please don't post the leaked details.
This is what is meant by dupe thread.
Sorry for not making it more clearer in my earlier post.
In case you dun know "Ryan" is a forum moderator.
If you want to tell people then "private message" them the list else the administrators of this board will get in hot water with one of their sponsors Futureshop.

It’s freely accessible on the Futureshop website.
Thanks for the head up but I'm confused: :confused: . If it's freely accessible on FS site why it's not allowed here?
Nothing too excited for the first 4 days though!

The Moderators have said they will post the "official response" from Futureshop or some more detailed information on the matter.

Just be careful. :)

Violation of company policy is ground for dismissal or worst. One would expect releasing confidential info falls into that category.

I would guess the Staples employee who got "caught" was caught doing it while at work?
Anyhow the incident regarded posting a scan of a Staples ad regarding an upcoming sale.

I'd expect for a severe enough case the RFD staff can provide your IP to the proper authorities for tracing all the way back to your PC. Just saying it can be done, not that it would. We're not as anoymous as we'd like.

Looks like I'll have no choice but to get a new account if I want to reveal any secrets...
Maybe having this nickname wasn't such a good idea after all.
Future Shop is super anal about having "Integrity" and being loyal to the company.

The information is not publicly available. There were pictures that existed on the futureshop website but you had to use your head to find them. And now they have been *removed* meaning they obviously don't want people to see them. Personally I could care less if you posted the deals, but I'm just saying this for your own sake, as the admins *probably* wont be happy.

Heh weird, right after I said that I went to check the pictures again. They are *back*. Maybe FS *does* want people to see the "leaked" deals afterall..

Yep. Your user name gives your identity away immediately. Be prepared for termination on your next shift, lol.

Trace back to your computer with the IP... Ehh yeah ok whatever!
It involves way more than what most people think!
