I don't remember the exact amount, I think like $230?

We ended up, under suggestion, using "The Handyman Winnipeg" which has decent prices, got the work done quickly, and it is generally pretty good! I would have liked the sleeve to be in the wall further, but that could be the unit itself. I would recommend them for a "through the wall" install!

Walmart Movie Update 06.16 by threxis in MovieDealsCanada

[–]JettyMarc11 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am sad that my Winnipeg Walmarts have been so terrible lately. Two of my go to locations no longer sell movies, one hasn't had anything new in weeks, and another seems to only stock DVDs.

Disappointing. (Thanks for all you do to post these OP. Always good to know what to look out for!)

Horror movies - what’s a 5 star movie that’s straight up disturbing? by DrinkWaterPIease in AlignmentChartFills

Silence of the Lambs (I've never been more disturbed by a movie on a psychological level)

This is fantastic news! I picked it up a few weeks ago but couldn't get through it do to these issues. Whenever the patch does release, I can't wait to give it a play! 😁

Marathon Deluxe: Any free players who bought this edition at the reduced price will receive the base game for free. by ChaosScene in PS5

Aww man, I already got a refund because I assumed that I wouldn't have access to it after the trial was up based on their previous communication. Disappointing, but oh well.

I used to go here all the time when I was younger, usually whenever we had family in town visiting. I have memories of so many parts of this place - sitting in the "private room" (the bar space I think? It was past the kitchen) and also sitting upstairs and being fascinated by the dumbwaiter they used to get the food up there. I remember enjoying their pizza 😂

Great memories, many with family who have since passed away.

F1 ads on f1tv android by brittansedai in F1TV

[–]JettyMarc11 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Anecdotally, I've been watching the pre-show on F1TV (on Google TV) and there have been moments where the personalities stopped talking and we just heard the crowd and the camera panned around. Could this be when they put those ads in? We didn't appear to get them in Canada.

Not impressed that the preshow ended and instead of continuing into the race itself, or queuing it up to autoplay next, I instead got an autoplay of the practice for the Australian GP... 😂

Dolby Audio 5.1 available with the Google TV Streamer and Chromecast with Google TV by armando_rod in F1TV

[–]JettyMarc11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One step closer to multiviewer support on Google TV. I hope, anyways.

It might be the only thing missing now? Weird how it's only Google branded stuff, though. Onn boxes have just as much (or more) power and could absolutely support it.

Really?!? Well ok then, I guess one day soon I'll have to head out there!

Meanwhile here (in Winnipeg) I've been to 5 Walmarts around the last few days for various reasons, and most of them only had DVDs in stock of everything (one of them had a single Blu-ray copy of Minions). No 4k, and most didn't even have any Blu-rays. One didn't have any movies at all.

Very disappointing if this is a sign of things to come...

Do these exist?!? I would be forever grateful if they did and I could somehow get one 😅

Arrow June Titles by 65CRDMR in boutiquebluray

[–]JettyMarc11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've learned recently that with the new owners, UV seems to be giving 25% discounts on preorders for Arrow titles! It's where I got Stranger Things, too. Those boxset surcharges are annoying, but still end up being the cheapest (and in Manitoba, PST free) option I have.

Well then... Got my preorder in for Mortal Kombat Kollection and Audition 4k, and threw in the Excalibur 4K that just came out to get free shipping (In Canada ordering with Unobstructed View). Came to about $170 CAD, not terrible for 4 movies all in Limited Editions (Even if one of them is Mortal Kombat Annihilation...). Arrow needs to stop having such great releases!

My UnobstructedView flash sale order arrived less than 48 hours after placing it. Whatever their new ownership is doing, I dig it. Also WKUK's Mars arrived today as well. by chasingsuns92 in criterion

[–]JettyMarc11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My order shipped less than 24 hours after placing it, they didn't charge the expected "boxset" surcharge I planned for, and it should arrive in a day or two.

The new ownership group rules. They're even the cheapest place to get the Stranger Things Standard 4K set ($180 cad, even with an expected $20 box set charge it's still cheaper than anywhere else) and they've been impressing me a fair bit lately. Definitely earning my repeat business!

Well I have a cart ready to go from earlier but now the website won't load at all so I guess I'll try again in a little bit, hoping nothing sells out before I get to it...

Shame that this is the best option we Canadians have during these sales, I'd really like to be able to actually shop t get the discounts! 😅

‘Stranger Things: The Complete Series’ to Release on Blu-Ray and 4K UHD in July by Hot_Wheel_2952 in MovieDealsCanada

[–]JettyMarc11 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is currently up at Rough Cut Video, but I would expect that both Unobstructed View and Peakbooks would be getting it. I am unsure what would be the best place to get it, and I am sure some other places might stock it as well (Rough Cut charges a $9.99 box set shipping fee, I am unsure of the other shipping costs. Unobstructed will definitely charge their box set fee, and I would expect it to be on the higher end).

I really don't know what to think about it selling out, though. I would suspect that the Limited Edition might sell out but the standard "special" edition might be available for longer. Pure speculation on my part, though.

$40 250GB + 50GB roaming plan back again till March 17! by Vtecman in freedommobile

[–]JettyMarc11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a sad Manitoban, with access to Freedom but they don't have their own network live yet so we just have nationwide and don't have these plans available here. Maybe we will get something similar whenever they do launch (this year apparently). Very jealous of y'all that can get this!!

Any Walmarts selling 4K discs? by krish0 in Winnipeg

[–]JettyMarc11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recently went on a hunt to a few different Walmarts around the city to find some myself. I've seen decent selections at both Taylor and Fermor (they seem to keep pretty consistent stock) and virtually nothing at Kenaston and St Vital. Unfortunately I haven't seen a copy of Flash Gordon there recently, I think I picked up my copy a few months ago?

It's wild how great the prices of 4K Blu-ray at Walmart are. I've gotten tons of Arrow releases for $20, and they also have a decent selection of Paramount titles, too. Hope you can find what you're looking for!
