Boxing Day

edited December 2008 in General
Surprised there wasn't already a thread about this haha. To everyone, did you go BD shopping, where, and what did you get?

I basically stayed in Richmond that day because I'm weaksauce when it comes to snowy weather. Picked up a couple hoodies but that's it.. is it just me or are BD sales getting worse and worse every year?!

    deals this year were god-awful, no lineups anywhere, you could get pretty much anything on the fliers even if you went in the afternoon.

    Stayed awake all night, went to FS at 6 am, picked up a 4 GB flash drive and an xbox 360 + a bunch of 360 extras.

    Don't worry, I know about those. I already have GTA 4, and NHL 09 plus Mirror's Edge, Battlefield Bad Company, Deadspace, Halo 3, Guitar Hero III, Stranglehold, Kung Fu Panda and Lego Indiana Jones.

    I also want to get Rockband, Guitar Hero II and Too Human, on top of what you have already mentioned.

    I played through Mirror's Edge already and it was really good.

    Eh. I didn't bother going. I might try for a NYE/D sale though.

    I'd skip Too Human, it's pretty terrible.

    I wanted to go to Pacific Centre but my car isn't too great in the snow, so I stayed in my area and went to the Whiterock strip malls. Mexx had a great sale (50% off everything) so I stocked up on work clothing there.
