I believe FS now has their sale start at 12:00am on the 25th (ie, right after Christmas Eve).

It was the 26th two years ago, but it's the 25th now, correct?

FS and BB were pounded last year. Certainly was far easier than fighting the crowds. Easier also for those out west, it's only 9 pm in Vancouver time when the sale prices go online, hehe. Had my Boxing Day online shopping done within an hour. Just make sure your credit card is freed up to avoid any snafus.

I really wish futureshop would let us pay online with our gift cards. I have almost a $1000 gift card and I don't want to go to the store and line up in the freeezing cold to get something

I wonder how FS will handle the in store pickup for the boxing day items.

Buy it online.

Return it in store later and tell them you still want the item but want to use your gift card. They shouldn't have a problem with that.

Is this right?? I thought FS was based out of Burnaby, so that means the sites don't go online until 12am PST, which means later on the further east you go.

Is it the servers that are the bottleneck or their pipe to their servers??

Doesn't matter how many servers they have unless they mate them to a big PIPE to carry the bandwidth.

FS and BB are definitely based out of Burnaby...

but that's all the insight i have on that. not sure what time they will go up.

But damn! Either way i'm going to have to skip out of Christmas festivities and do some shopping!
