They've been doing that for awhile now here.

Canadian dollars are valuable now. So instead of lowering Canadian retail prices to reflect the parity with US$, Canadian Businesses (all of them, starting with the oil companies) are increasing their selling price because we common Canadian now have greater buying power. I notice Future Shop & Best Buy are now selling TV at full Canadian MSRP.

Perhaps Shockwave can tell us if this economic is logical.

when RTS came out and some of the HFTD came out, it was at 15.97$ dlx and 27.97$ for voyagers and BIS. then right before they had the buy one get the second one half off sale, zellers increased the TF price to the current one. most of the zellers in my area put the price on the toy itself and can clearly see the new price sticker on top of the other.

because of this, i have seen so many price errors on and off their rebates.

I reported the 33%/40% sale back on May 7th, but no one seem to care or notice so I didn't think it was big news.

Re: Zellers Price Cuts on Transformers May 6 - June 5

Grabbed Bombshock finally. Was trying to hold off until Monday to start picking up some DOTM stuff, but for less than $20, PCCs can be really fun to fiddle with. Just couldn't resist.

Also bought some mini Cadbury eggs, cause they finally went down to a decent price. Only took three weeks after Easter.

Why do I have a feeling that no one will want Burnning Fallen even at 20$?

Re: Zellers Price Cuts on Transformers May 6 - June 5

Not too much selection but it wasn't too bad either, though it was all old stuff. Got myself some Legends figures though, since I already had most of what else was there (at least of what I wanted). Still need to get PCC Constructicons, and maybe even the Legends 5-pack with Sparkcruncher (any opinions on the latter? is it worth it?).

Re: Zellers Price Cuts on Transformers May 6 - June 5

Gotta love Zellers' bill system, thanks to their Price cut on deluxes starting back in February or so and this new one on other toylines I have saved myself 151$ and it's not over yet, I aim to get as many Price Cut figures for my collection as possible once my B-Day Cash is given to me around the end of the month.

Naturally I don't actually have 151$ in the bank, because the savings don't work that way, but it's nice to know I bought so many figures and things at discount prices ensuring that, had I those excess funds mentioned in the bills, I would be ahead for once.

Although Technically I guess that 151 in savings was slowly eaten up by the price cut items I bought through the course of the month. Oh well, I saved big on Transformers, now if I can just complete HftD or most of it with my upcoming B-Day funds I'll be a happy collector.
