Default Can we online shop for Boxing Day Sales??
Are the boxing day sales for online shopping or do you actually have to go to a retail location??

Online and in-store will generally have different items. Case in point: <a href=../autolink/redirectpage.php?linkid=28 target=_blank>NCIX</a> had some decent online deals last year, but in-store was the killer - $999 21 inch LCD monitor (1 per store)

Yes. However last year FS servers were extremely slow. Hopefully they have learned their lesson and it should be better this year.

I think last year it was 12 A.M. Pacific/ 3 A.M. EST. Maybe because FS is vancouver based.

And let us not forget the MIR fiasco!!! There were many of us who ordered and the date was the incorrect date to match up with the MIR, [depending on the time ordered;] I believe the error was that though in the west coast we'd be able to order the items starting @ 10 PM our time, thus the MIR ended up showing a date of the day before - in the end, FS decided to honor the MIRs, right? But in any event, watch the MIRs carefully - read the fine print, guys!

Since you're in SK, for you it will start at 2 AM December 25 (assuming it's CST in SK).
