Anyone else smell desperation from the stores?
Seems that all TV is doing last couple days is shilling Black Friday and Cyber Monday, trying to pump up the masses to go spend money. Creating a hysteria of "not missing the deals!"
All i know is i'm staying the hell away from any and all shopping centers.

That's what I said and I work for CT, next year is yellow fever Wednesday
Red Liner the idea is that Canadians were going south to buy american this weekend, black friday was created as an incentive to keep the money in Canada, it was so successful that now stores are coming up with one more day (Thursday)
a few years from now it will be black Black November and on and on

Oh i know, a few years ago they started to compete with US and try to keep the $$$ in Canada, first by pulling at the patriotic strings, then when ppl told them to STFU as the dollar was on par and yet we were paying 30% more, they started to actually put out deals to compete.
It just that this year, it seems as if though there is almost a sense of desperation to try and get the shoppers out there as much as they can. Not just "come to my store" but more along the lines of "Please, just shop, period!"

thats not a good meter - at all. In fact I would say that it is dangerous in the hands of most inexperienced users. Please look at the following video - yes I know its long. As a home owner or diy'er I dont think you should buy a Fluke but you can buy a decent Ideal or other reputable brand meter for not too much.

I picked up the same compressor. Lot's of decent stuff on sale so if the stuff you actually NEED is on sale it's a great time. Good deals on oil, tools/benches, home stuff. I made out well.

I tried the surface at Yorkdale and the keyboard was absolutely crap unless you like pushing the keys rather than having your finger glide over the keys when typing.

That's the touch keyboard, you buy the RT, for 199 and purchase the real keyboard for 129
And if grandma had wheels she'd be a bicycle

Just to confirm we're talking about the same product:
I type faster on the touchscreen than the keyboard (and usually typing on a touch screen is significantly slower than a real keyboard).
The keys don't register according to the touch, but actually pressing. Maybe I type too fast for the key to register? I found that they started registering the input keys when I typed at about 0.5 keys per sec - but then again, thats too slow for me (normal speed about 70 WPM).

That's why I said buy the real keyboard. That's the touch keyboard, but there's a real keyboard for it, with actual keys not a touch mat.

And if brains were dynamite, you wouldn't have enough to blow your nose.
