Amongst all the other announcements that Apple Canada made the other day, there were some exciting rumblings about iCloud storage that have, on our part at least, been greatly over looked. Apple announced that they would be removing the 1TB option from the iCloud Storage plan, and instead replacing it with just the 2TB plan.

The catch to all of this is that the 1TB plan used to cost $12.99 while the 2TB plan cost double that at $25.99. Now that the 1TB plan is gone, the 2TB plan is being slashed in half and will only cost $12.99/month. Plus, all customers who purchased the 1TB plan before June 5, 2017 will be automatically bumped up to the 2TB plan for the same cost.

This news comes on the tail winds of Apple’s announcement that they will be releasing iOS 11 and macOS High Sierra this fall, and according to TechCrunch the 2TB and 200GB storage options will soon be able to be split between families as soon as these other updates are made.

This is a small but sweet little offer from the Royal Canadian Mint, especially if you’re an avid coin collector, as right now the Mint is giving away Official Canada 150 Collector cards for FREE. If you also consider the cost of shipping, the cards will work out to setting you back $2.99. Or, if you’re a Masters Club member, you’ll qualify for free shipping on this offer making the entire transaction cost you absolutely nothing.

As a disclaimer, as I also made this initial mistake, this 150 Collector Card does not come with any coins. It is simply a stylish card for displaying your collection for Canada’s 150th year. No coins will be coming with this order!

You can however order up to three of these card holders, so you can keep one for yourself and give the other two away as gifts to friends or family.
