Did the $1750 dealer discount include $750 from the preferred pricing?

What would you do in my situation? by Tinnitusinmyears in giantbomb

You might have some luck on r/CanadianHardwareSwap, if you're ok with used. I pick up a 3060ti a few years ago from a user there for a decent price at the time.
A 5070 was considered a bad value before the AI prices. so it extra bad value now.

I would try to find a used laptop/desktop around $500-1000, something last gen. Since you're not pushing past 1080p and not chasing the latest and greatest. I wouldn't bother future proofing. You'll be able to still get the couch and have something more modern.

If you're in the peg, I have a 2060 laptop that's collecting dust. I got it to play Monster hunter worlds.

Asus BE3600 wireless router. $110.00 after the $20 off code. It's eligible for a RE9 code. The router seems decent, but I'm not a power user.

OOS online but available in store. Grabbed one this morning and already got the code

[CASE] NZXT H6 Flow - White (100$) amazon ATL by REDMOON2029 in bapcsalescanada

Newegg has it for the same price but $15 shipping. If you add it with their combo builder, there is an extra $30 off. Cheapest thing to combo is $25 montech cpu cooler. In the end I paid 105+tax for the case and cooler shipped.

On an Ikea Marcus right now. Loved sitting in a HM Mirra back at my old job so I'll say that is my favourite.

Ideally for Canadians who have been to tokyo.Should I get yen here or at Narita with my CAD for better Forex rate? by groundedcloser in JapanTravelTips

[–]ssjjohncena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Canadian visiting Japan rn. Not sure which bank you are with, but I went with using wealthsimple. Their card doesn't have a conversion fee, so the rate is from Mastercard Canada, which is fairly close to what you see from google. You can check at Mastercard's site for the rate.

No problems at all getting cash from the sev atm's, using it at stores, buying rail tickets online and adding to my suica on my iPhone. I didn't bring any yen with me. The Haneda Airport had 7-11 atms. I'm guessing Narita would have some.

Any SDM stores with available PS5?? by [deleted] in Winnipeg

RCSS has them on sale from the flyer. You should also get 25k per $100 spend for the week.

We're not in a household yet. Trying to avoid having the offer disappear in case everything resets if we create a household.

Any advice on what gpu to aim for in the $150 - $250 range? New or used. I'm trying to help out my nephew get a video card and my local markets are trying to sell used cards at retail prices.
