It's fine.

Canada GAF, what's your fav root beer and where can I buy it?

Creamier and lacking the wintermint aftertaste of many root beers. Maybe you could argue it's not a true root beer, but it not that different.

Only place I knew of buying it was the Market on Yates in Victoria. Now that I'm in Edmonton, the hell if I know. Lots of places carry Boylan's soda, but never the red birch beer. I'd even accept their regular birch beer.

Big Smoke Burger in Toronto has Boylan's, I've never tried it though

ive seen boylans at longos but i haven't been to one in a couple of years now

 

[Dalius]

Boylan's Root Beer is quite delicious. The Birch Beer is excellent as well. If you like root beer, you should definitely give them a try.

Whoa. I've never tried this but I love everything you just typed.

I miss the days this thread was about deals and not about root beer or Mac vs PC. Are these the riveting discussions we can look forward to as the dollar continues to weaken?

I know what you mean. I was just thinking the other day that I could really use a new pillow. Where are all the pillow deals?

Root beer talk beats Amiibo discussion.

 

[curb]

I'll take root beer over Mac vs PC too.

 

[SickBoy]

I just think whenever we buy something we should just crow about how cheap it was in U.S. dollars to make ourselves feel better.

For example, my old secondary TV died. Bought a low-end LG 43" from Costco -- $284US! BAM!

Take it over shipping talk also.

 

[curb]

Take it over shipping talk also.

I've participated in it but it does get a little crazy at times.

Maybe we should just create a Canadian Root Beer appreciation thread and then whenever there is an actual gaming deal, someone can just link back to this thread.

 

[jzbluz]

Now I how to figure out where to buy Boylan beer in Vancouver.

 

[StrangeADT]

God yes. Talking about Canadian shipping is as redundant as talking about San Francisco weather. It never changes.

 

[Sora_N]

Now I how to figure out where to buy Boylan beer in Vancouver.

Whole foods? Famous foods?

At a place I used to work a bakery/coffee shop sold them too.

My local IGA in Kits sells Boylan's sodas, not sure on the exact flavours but I've bought the orange soda before and it was delish

What deals are we talking about here, this thread would be updated like once a week if it was restricted to that

 

[Firestorm]

Nester's has it. Hub Bub Sandwiches has it on tap.

 

[DeathByBacklog]

So how does 2ndturn work? Like ebay where no money is lost if you don't win the auction. Or like Quibids where you do lose money if you don't win the auction?

It's' an eBay for stuff that is too damaged to sell but still functional. Although some of the stuff it's like Why would anyone want that?

So I can sell my old broke hardware on it?

 

[Erudite]

Now I how to figure out where to buy Boylan beer in Vancouver.

If you mean the root beer, the Triple A Market in North Burnaby carries them. Dunno if there are other Triple As in Vancouver, but they're worth looking into if you're near one.

 

[knacklover]

Only Best Buy sells stuff there.

 

[espher]

re: Fire Emblem, do we know if you have to buy the 2nd route to get the 3rd route? I want physical copies of both (since E3 discount) but if that won't work...

 

[krae_man]

I just saw a used kettle sell for more then a new one is selling for on Amazon.

Who are these idiots paying near retail prices for used scratched stuff?

 

[Renewed]

You can buy either Birthright or Conquest (or the digital version where you'll make a choice and be locked to either Birthright or Conquest) and go through the first route. 3rd route (Revelation) doesn't need the second route to be bought.

I took a look at it last night and the prices are way above what I thought they'd be on there

Lots of people bidding on disappointing products like Xbox 360s

 

[soultron]

Makes me a bit nervous that the BestBuy.ca preorder for the Pokemon R/B n3DS bundle is still open. I hope they don't get their stock, find out it's a small lot, and then have to send cancellation emails out if they allowed more people to pre-order than they are capable of serving.

not everything is damaged. My Macbook Pro that I recently purcahsed for ~600 less than retail was in perfect condition, still with warranty, and I can add applecare to it anytime before June. Just be sure to read the description and look at the photos / items included or missing from the sale.

Pokemon will be the more popular model, so I'm not surprised there's more stock of it.

 

[Wedge7]

Nice, just got one of those FE xls.

Its sad, I think I played my current generic black n3dsxl one for maybe 4 hours in total, ah well. I always wanted a white one.

 

[Ryne]

I still would like to have the Bravely Default SE up on BB. Missed out on the Amazon one.

[TheGamingBox]

so can some one confirm when paypal will be charged?

"You will be charged as items ship or once your scheduled delivery date is issued."

hopefully i dont get charged before the 29th

 

[ReddishGUI]

You're going to need those skills to score a BS:SE.

Edit: Can anyone find the page early? I know you can usually figure it out through compare.

 

[Luigi87]

I put in an order for FEF n3DS XL just 'cause... I might not keep it, but let's see what happens.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

The auction site has some decent stuff, but some of the winning bids are absurd. A cracked, locked, iPhone 6 16GB went for almost $400.

http://2ndturn.dtdeals.com/auction/index.cfm?C=6&P=5&I=1749779

I wish there was a way to view ended items.
