Each year Canadians are duped into thinking they can save big money on boxing days deals. Each year the sales get lamer and lamer. For something that started as a Black Friday counterpart to our southern neighbours' big sale extravaganza, it has turned shittier and shittier with each passing year. When comparing the two, boxing day is like the gay Robin to US's black Friday Batman. It's like the little engine that could, except it doesn't and it gets molested by its creepy uncle. It's a "holiday" that tried hard and fails miserably. It's like Old Yeller, only no one seems to be willing to pull the trigger on this rabid infestation.

For every "door crasher" and its limited quantity of "only 3 available" a bunch of lame 15% sales litter the store aisles.

Originally I was hopping to hold out on a laptop purchase for this *ahem* sale holiday. I'm very pleased that I didn't. Every Boxing Day sale observed so far equals to or is quite weaker than regular season sales. Here are some of the flyers for tomorrow's big day:

Kayla is not impressed this year.
