Today is the last day of Best Buy’s 7 Days of deals. A ZCyber 1GB USB 2.0 Mini Hard Drive for $34.98 (regular price $99.99). Good deal but would have been better had been a removal flash drive. You can purchase this hard drive here.

This concludes my coverage of Best Buy’s 7 Days of Deals. Overall, I was quite disappointed; Best Buy seemed to be trying to get rid of their old stock instead of offering completive prices on exciting new products. They did have a couple of good offers but overall I would give them 4 out of 10 on their deals hotness.

In Staples Flyer they have the Ink Cartridge Trade-In Event. You get $5 off the regular ink cartridge price when you return your empty cartridge! Staples will also donate $1 to local elementary and high schools. Time to buy new ink cartridges at last 🙂

Get a free Bison meat sample here.

Bison meat is healthiest red meat available and our product is all-natural from animals raised on our free-roaming 800-acre ranch in up-state New York. Each package is individually wrapped and has a shelf life of over 6 months.

The Panasonic GigaRange Phone with an answering machine, caller ID and expandable cordless set is on sale at Staples for $149.99 (regular price $249.99). Since I’m not always at home, I’ve been looking for a good answering machine system for a while now. I’m going to drop by Staples and buy one of these today. Although this model looks dull, it is of very high quality and is very reliable. You can buy this phone online here or from any Staples store.

Today is Best Buy’s Day 6 of 7 days of deals. Today’s deal is a Logitech QuickCam Messenger PC Camera for $19.99 (regular price $44.99). If you need a webcam to chat (video conference) with family and friends go for it and buy this camera. You can get this deal here.

Buy 1 XBox, Playstation 2 or Gamecube controller and get the second for free on the 12th and 13th April, at Zellers! Offer is posted in the upcoming Zellers Flyer. This scorching hot deal is most probably valid in Quebec only. If you live in Quebec and own one of these three gaming consoles this deal is a must!

PartSource has an in-store clearance event. Here is the PartSource Flyer for more details.

Just incase you don’t know what PartSource is:

PartSource is an automotive parts specialty store designed to meet the needs of major purchasers of auto parts – professional automotive installers and serious do-it-yourselfers.

It is owned by Canadian Tire.

Pioneer DVD recorder is on sale at The Source for $149.99 (regular price: $549.99). This deal is only available online, not at brick and mortar stores. At $549.99 this DVD recorder was definitely over priced, but for $149.99 it’s not a bad deal. You can find this deal here.

Staples Business Depot Single Sided 8.5×11 (letter paper) colour copies cost $0.39 until May 9th. One of the lowest prices you’ll get for coloured copies.

Today is Day 5 of Best Buy’s 7 days of deals. Today’s deal is a refurbished Netgear 4-Port WebSafe Router for $14.99 (regular price $24.99). Unfortunately, unless you specifically need a wired router for some reason, this is one crappy deal. If you need to setup a home network so that you can connect to the Internet from more than one computer I strongly recommend you buy a wireless (not a wired) router. I’ll post deals on wireless routers soon.

Here is Best Buy’s cold router deal.

I have several moola.com invitations. If you’re interested in a Moola invitation please send a message using the “Suggest a Deal” form on the right sidebar or just email me or leave comment below. Mention moola invitation so that I know what you’re asking for. It’s first come, first serve.
Once you get my invitation you’ll have 3 new invitations. I’d really appreciate it if you can post these invitations in the comments section for others to join.

If you’re already a Moola member here are a couple of winning tips:
– jot down the numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 on a piece of paper and cross them out as your opponent plays them. This way you’ll be able to keep track of the numbers played so far.
– Try not to blow your 6 too early, because sometimes it can be used to win ties.
– If the first number in the gold rush is 5, playing a 2 might be a good idea. 2 would win if opponent plays a 1 and wouldn’t be a terrible loss otherwise.

If you have any more tips please post them in the comments section.
